The Dominator

Faced with such an agile and sharply skilled opponent, Ethan found the challenge exhilarating and greatly valued this opportunity. 

Once again, the venomous snake lunged towards Ethan, who adeptly dodged its attack. 

This sequence of attack and evasion continued several times, and Ethan realized that this specific training, aimed at honing his reflexes, was incredibly beneficial.

Although his encounter with the snake was brief, the trial significantly enhanced Ethan's speed. 

He continued to practice with the snake for an extended period before finally defeating it. 

After a brief rest, Ethan resumed his journey through the swamp.

With the experience of the recent encounter fresh in his mind, Ethan proceeded with heightened caution. 

Knowing the swamp was teeming with snakes capable of launching surprise attacks, he understood that a lapse in vigilance could turn him into prey at any moment.
