How should we put bootstrap and posterior probability values together in the same phylogenetic tree like the following one? Thanks a lot!

I think those pictures are professionally done. I had previously edited trees in power point to put both branch support values.
There is a similar question here: What is a good phylogenetic tree display program for large data sets? Maybe few of these suggestions may work: A: What is a good phylogenetic tree display program for large data sets?

Powerpoint may work for a presentation, but is unacceptable for publication quality images. I recommend neal.platt's suggestions for open freeware, but also Adobe Illustrator is another (albeit expensive) option. See here (What Phylogeny Viewing Software Do You Use?) also.

I didn't generate the tree in power point. MEGA lets you export the tree as editable lines and text, which can be easily customized in power point (coloring/adding text/collapsing). For eg., http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/11/276/figure/F4 (we used just power point saved as PDF here)

We use Inkscape for our work. There is a small learning curve, but you can produce high-quality, publication ready images quickly. Gimp is a strong alternative as well.

A recent published paper (Published online: 22 July 2016), The mitochondrial genome map of Nelumbo nucifera reveals ancient evolutionary features, use ggtree to visualize bootstrap value inferred by RAxML and phyML in the same tree.

A lot of such trees can be found in supplemental file. Annotation task like this can be very easy to achieve by ggtree .
