Human-Crumbling Speed

Many people in Daxing Hall felt as though time had come to a standstill. The image on the screen hadn't changed at all.

One second, five seconds, 10 seconds…

Time slowly ticked by, yet the Sea God Rider remained still. The Ocean Pegasus that Laitehaiyin had called unrivaled was just as still.

Everything seemed static.

"The ocean seems to be moving!" a voice suddenly said in Daxing Hall. The entire hall had seemed to be shrouded by a deadly silence, so the voice echoed loudly around the room.

The ocean was moving!

When they heard this, everyone, including Laitehaiyin, turned their eyes to the ocean's surface. Laitehaiyin felt like the electronic screen had paused for a little too long.

Although the ocean was moving, the Sea God Rider didn't budge. Was there something wrong with the image, or was it something else?
