Chapter 73 - The Superstar (1/2)
The sun had already begun to set, and thus, the curtains closed for the matches on the first day. More than two thousand matches had undergone on thirty arenas.
Within these many matches, there would definitely be some there were spectacular and thrilling, but, after the first day of the tournament ended, the hottest topic brought up was not about any of those matches, but about the unexpected monster, Dennell Jean.
No one knew about his combat prowess except for fellow Sky Profound Cultivators, who tried to make guesses when Jean threw his heavy sword with easiness.
Qin Wushang: I have looked at the information of the participants in the fifteenth group. There's basically no strong practitioners inside; at the very least, there's not a single disciple from the four great sects. So you can even relax, nothing would happen even if they came all together.
Jean: *Sigh* And I was hoping for some fun…
Jean looked around, seeing many people looking at him while they walked, but his gaze temporarily rested on one thing… Xia Qingyue's eyes that were also looking back at him.
Both of them were far away, and they looked at each other for 3 seconds, before their gazes split apart, neither of the two wanted to do anything with the other for now, especially in public.
Jean: Heh… I wonder what would happen if she wasn't a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Asgard…
[2 days later]
The first round of the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament continued, Dennell Jean would either swing his right arm around or wait that the opponent would give up, but there was something that happened yesterday, and it shocked a bit Jean too…
[Flashback]
Referee: Match start!!
This round was between Jean and someone who also thought he was faking his power, everyone was cheering for Jean, there were more than 100'000 people cheering for Jean, and this caused a certain something to happen…
...The schrift Superstar activated…
The Superstar would increase one's power exponentially to the people that cheer for that person, even if there was a single person, Jean would increase his power from the 1st Sky Profound Realm to the 4th Sky Profound Realm, and now that there were 100'000…
Current profound strength: 1st Sovereign Profound Realm
Current combat prowess: Profound God.
Jean could feel his power overflowing from his body, no one was able to sense it, but Jean held the power to be the absolute ruler of the Blue Pole Star, even Jasmine almost spit blood when she sensed Jean's power, and after some calculations, she knew where Jean's combat prowess reached to.
Obviously, it didn't ended well for the opponent...
[Back]
After the first round of group stages ended, Fen Juechen pumped his fist and cheered, Cang Yue was beaming, and Qin Wushang could not contain his smiles any longer.
Even though he knew that Jean could make it into the second round of group stages, when it finally happened, he was still unable to control his emotions…
Because this was the first time ever that the disciples representing the Blue Wind Imperial Family made into the second round of group stages! The first time a disciple entered into the top three hundred rankings!
Qin Wushang: I will immediately send news to the Emperor. He will be very happy upon receiving this news.
Cang Yue: This is too wonderful Junior Brother Jean. You have established a new ranking record for disciples representing the Imperial Family. After Father receives news of this, he will certainly be very happy. Junior Brother Jean, I sincerely thank you.
Jean: Then why not thanking me with a kiss?
Cang Yue looked around in all four directions and a shade of pink spread across her absolutely beautiful face. Her lips puckered slightly. She suddenly moved forward, left a quick kiss on Jean's face, and then immediately lowered her head with her heart pounding fiercely.
*Bang*
A certain someone's armrest of his chair broke in that moment due to jealousy, little hint, it's Fen Juechen's brother.

[U: ”Underbelly”]
On the 4th day of the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, the second round officially started. Right now, from the 1545 disciples, only 300 remained.
Referee: Sword Discourse Arena Number Seven, first match. Blue Wind Imperial Family's Dennell Jean, versus, Thunderbolt Lightning Pavilion's Lei Zhentian!
Both of them were in the arena, Lei Zhentian's eyebrows twitched and sighed, then he bowed down and said in a respectful manner.
Lei Zhentian: Senior, I hope if you want to exchange pointers with this little one!
Jean: Just go, we aren't here to spar.
Jean was disinterested on the fight, so he answered with a bored tone. This obviously made Lei Zhentian a bit angry, but he could only swallow his rage back and hope to not come out too injured.
Referee: Match start!!
Without saying anything more, he swung his twin hammers, creating two fierce and abnormal waves of wind which struck directly towards Jean's ċhėst.
*Bang* *Bang*
This wasn't the sound of weapon clashing with body, but it was the sound of the hammers breaking and fly away from their handles…
Lei Zhentian: (・.・;)
Jean: (=_=)
Lei Zhentian: ...Please don't kill me, almighty one…
