Lin Rui marveled inwardly, being a martial arts internet celebrity sure was lucrative.
It had only been a few days, yet he had nearly 300 million.
Of that, only about 20 million was earned by him from catching demons himself; the rest came from video subscriptions and income from promotions.
Although these were his peak popularity days, the speed at which an internet celebrity could rake in money was thus evident.
Just then, Lin Rui received another notification of funds being credited to his account.
It was the school’s finance department, transferring 17 million regulated funds to him.
...
The so-called ‘regulated’ meant that he had to explain the purpose before using it and obtain permission from the school’s finance department.
Lin Rui was surprised, wondering where this money had come from?
Was it Fang Ranran?
But according to the rules of the university martial arts competition committee, he couldn’t accept financial aid from the school.
Suddenly, a thought struck Lin Rui, and he opened the chat interface with his senior, Li Li.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Senior, I have received 17 million federation dollars from the school finance department.

Does this have anything to do with the professor?
Cold Light Bamboo Shadow (Li Li): Yes, it’s some project funds the teacher applied for you guys; they’ve been gradually approved.
Don’t worry, this money comes from official channels and won’t affect your participation in the martial arts competition.
Cold Light Bamboo Shadow (Li Li): ‘Tian Dao’ Elite Ettin Cultivator Foundation, 4 million; Ettin Cultivator Care Foundation, 3 million; Tianji Star Humanities Research Foundation, 2 million; Ettin Cultivator Health Charity Fund, 1 million.@@@@
Our teacher is the standing vice-chairman of these foundations, and he started applying for you half a month ago, it’s only just been approved.
Oh, and Wang Sen has about 5 million in development funds, which are a bit slower to approve since he isn’t as well-known as you.
Cold Light Bamboo Shadow (Li Li): He also applied for two research projects for you, Tianji Star Soil Research Project, 2 million; Tianji Star Production Relations Survey Project, 5 million.
The latter project is relatively simple; you just need to deliver data like the household registry and the land records from Wang City’s county office, and write a paper, and that should be enough.
If it’s really difficult, I can ghostwrite for you.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): !!!
The professor is awesome!
He sent a prostrating emoji.
Li Li couldn’t help but chuckle upon seeing this.
Professor Han was indeed amazing.
Although not as financially powerful or as well-connected as Miss Fang, he was more than capable of looking after the members of their group.

Li Li was not born into wealth, so how did his bloodline power reach the rank of a four-realm emperor?
It’s because the professor could occasionally secure project funding and sponsorships for them.
It could provide all-around bodily enhancements at the cellular level when combat occurred—including the strength of bones and flesh, internal organ durability, power, speed, and reflexes, among others, which made it much more expensive.
The effect of a single set of “War God” Model 5 was almost equivalent to half a set of “Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor” from Tianji Star.
The difference was that this device was implanted in the human body.
In addition, it also had powerful medical capabilities, which could help humans repair various injuries and maintain life.
Fei Yunlai had implanted a set, and if not for the “War God” Model 7 nanotechnology combat enhancement device on him, he would have already been killed by Meng Weiyun.
However, this enhancement device had been destroyed, and it would cost a lot of money for Fei Yunlai to get a new one implanted.
The implantation surgery for this type of device was extremely precise, and Lin Rui was prepared to charge him a surgery fee.
Furthermore, “War God” Model 5 and “Heavenly Armor” Model 5 were products from the same company and could connect with each other to produce a synergistic effect.
What made Lin Rui even more interested was that “War God” Model 5 could be stored outside the body and he could also take out the “Heavenly Armor” Model 5 subcutaneous nano-armor he had, forming an arm-guard-like object to wear on his body.
If he didn’t want to use it in the future, he could expel these nano-robots from his body.
If anyone wanted to use the Heavenly Demon Test on him again in the future, he could still cope with it.
The problem was that the price quoted by the Special Entity Management Bureau for this piece of gear was 100 million federal dollars, and two sets would be 200 million.
On the Federation’s side, it was much cheaper, only costing 30 million—the shipping fee from the Special Entity Management Bureau was actually 70 million!
Lin Rui felt the impulse to turn to the black market traders instead, as Professor Han and his associates should have such channels.
He immediately shook his head, thinking that he still had to wait.
With 10 days left, he should be able to earn this amount of money.
Although the Special Entity Management Bureau charged a lot, their products were regulated and reliable, which provided more peace of mind.
Then, he started to enter into an intense working mode, recording over thirty videos with the help of the Tianlan Talent Agency team.
Lin Rui also held a live stream, explaining how to practice and use the Red Thunder Saber, as a bonus for his fans.
The live stream was free to watch but was in a view-and-discard mode, with no recording allowed.
The Earth Federation valued martial arts intellectual property rights very highly, and to expect to learn real martial arts from the internet without paying was just dreaming!
The popularity of the live stream was unexpectedly high, with the viewership reaching up to 12 million people at its peak.
However, many fans’ focus wasn’t on his martial arts explanation.
Lin Rui saw the screen filled with comments like “The host is so handsome,” “The host has a great body,” and “Stop streaming, I’ll support you,” leaving Lin Rui not knowing how to respond.
To his surprise, the amount of tipping after the live stream ended totaled over 30 million federal dollars.
Lin Rui regretted that this money would take a month to be credited, and there would be a split with the video platform.
Otherwise, he would just need to do more live streams to earn back the money for the “War God Model 5” implant.
He had also sold a batch of goods, a total of over 1200 implants, worth over a hundred million, which allowed for a share of the proceeds.
The sale volume was slightly touching; with 12 million viewers, only so many sales were made.
Those girls who said they’d support him, all were all talk and no action.
Not long after the live stream ended, Lin Rui received a new message.
——The person sending the message was named “Lin Da.”
After seeing it, Lin Rui’s brow slightly furrowed, a hint of suspicion appearing deep in his pupils.
