Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku.

The previously scattered attention of the people in the media area was now focused again.

Originally, the production team paid them to come and promote the film.

After reading it, take a picture, write a short article, and that's about it.

Sato only gets a small, or rather the smallest, spot in the entertainment section where you can get on the page if you pay someone. Since they don't have much money, they naturally won't be very dedicated.

But seeing Sato's actions, everyone at the newspaper saw the benefits he represented.

Judging from the reactions of those around him, the boy's behavior is likely to become a topic of conversation in society.

In addition, people from the Kansai region generally prefer sword-fighting films and period dramas more than those from the Kanto region.

As a newspaper based in the Kansai region, they naturally knew what would attract people to buy their newspaper.

If there's a topic of conversation, then newspaper sales will increase.

Previously, they hadn't paid much attention; they were simply there to complete their work.

But things are different now; they've all tacitly sensed the scent of profit.

That's why many media people here are sitting up straight at this moment.

Whether it's finding the right angle for taking photos or taking notes, I'm much more attentive than before.

While they were working hard, Sato's action scenes continued.

His movements were actually faster than in the previous rehearsals.

The first time, he was afraid that his senior brothers wouldn't be able to keep up. As for now, it's not that his senior brothers have suddenly become more powerful.

It's because of the routine that he's been practicing so quickly, dozens or even hundreds of times a day for the past few days.

The senior students have developed muscle memory for it, so cooperating with him is no problem at all.

This also demonstrates the benefits of having a professional team.

Without a club, no matter how skilled Sato is, it would be difficult and extremely time-consuming to build a team that can compete with him.

He doesn't know how to teach, and he doesn't have the money to hire people.

No matter how hard he tries to work alone, he will eventually have to collaborate with other teams, but it takes time to get to know them.

This time he got it all in one go. The club and he share the same interests and are compatible in temperament. There couldn't be a more satisfying thing.

Compared to the scheming and backstabbing, he preferred the atmosphere here.

Sato only thought about it for a moment before quickly refocusing.

The hand movements were exactly the same as during the rehearsal, and various skills were smoothly executed through the katana in his hands.

The blade flashed in the boy's hand.

That was the illumination from a spotlight, a typical application of lighting.

This made the whole scene even more tense and exciting.

It easily drew everyone's attention.

"Junior brother seems to have gotten even more powerful..."

Sanada remained relatively calm despite knowing the other party's capabilities, though he was still somewhat frightened.

"Yes, a little, but I guess they're in pretty good shape."

Chiba echoed this sentiment.

"Some people are just more amazing in the main role."

"Um."

Sanada watched longingly.

I'm so envious, but I can't have it.

Of course, neither of them knew that this increase in strength was not because Sato Masakazu would become stronger, but because of the princess's appearance.

Although a 10% improvement may not be very significant compared to Sato's other skills, it certainly means that the boy has used all available means and made all the necessary preparations for this public rehearsal.

Even if the current reach isn't enough to make them an instant hit, they should at least establish a significant reputation in the Kansai region.

Without thinking further, Sato was completely absorbed in the fight scene.

The fight scene didn't last long, only a full three minutes.

However, for Sato, although his body had undergone a complete transformation, he still felt fatigue emerging from his limbs after playing for three minutes straight.

His abilities didn't improve immediately. His aptitude did increase, but that doesn't mean he reached the top in one step. It just means that the speed of his ascent changed from one step at a time to two or three steps at a time.

We should still climb it, as for the risk of falling halfway through, of course there is.

The body still follows the laws of physics; it will still hurt when it's supposed to, and it will still become disabled when it's supposed to. Even geniuses can fall from grace.

Just like Chiba warned me before, you can't train to death just because you're not afraid of pain, because you really could die.

In short, it's always good to be cautious.

Sato slowly descended from the air, his chest heaving slightly more violently than before, but his eyes remained bright as he looked at the hundred or so spectators in front of him.

And what greeted him, of course, was the enthusiastic applause from the crowd in front of him.

There was not only applause, but also screams from girls and cheers from boys.

He has initially achieved his goal this time.

However, the specific social response will depend on subsequent reports and television program broadcasts.

"Thank you everyone. I hope this public photoshoot will leave a lasting impression on you."

Sato showed no stage fright, bowing slightly in humility before the camera and smiling.

The response from the crowd was even more enthusiastic.

Seeing this scene, Nakamori clenched his fists slightly.

She knew she should leave, but she was also a little reluctant to go.

Based on the boy's performance and current attitude, it would be impossible for him not to become popular.

Many more people may pursue it in the future.

And she did indeed have feelings for him.

She herself is aware of this.

Moreover, she's not the type to shy away from admitting her feelings.

However, she has her own things to do now.

Besides... she'd only spoken to him once, right?

He wasn't a singer either, so the two didn't have much opportunity to interact.

Going directly to them would be too beneath them.

"snort."

The girl, who had no idea what to do, slowly backed away as the event was about to end.

If I can't think of a solution for the time being, I'll just have to focus on making money first.

Making money is never a bad thing.

The event ended shortly after Nakamori left.

Everyone is very happy.

Most of the audience became fans, curious about who Sato was, and even more looking forward to Sato's performance in "Shadow Legion" and his future as a rising star.

The media outlets that came to promote the product were delighted to have obtained such high-quality material, which might boost sales.

Needless to say, the staff were already short of funds and their salaries had been reduced instead of increased, so they were all feeling dejected. But Sato's appearance was undoubtedly a huge source of hope.

......

"Great news!"

As soon as Sato stepped off the field, Natsui ran over to him excitedly.

That's right, it's about running.

This was completely different from his usual composure.

"What's going on?"

Chiba stepped forward and asked, equally excited.

Although I don't know what the good news is, judging from Xia Jing's reaction, I know it's pretty good news.

"Several newspapers have said they can give us a small section of their publication, and they'll even have experts comment!"

"There's also a special offer!"
