Last Minute Changes

(Leo's POV)

Unlike the neutral spectators in the arena, who viewed Su Yang and Minerva's fight as mere entertainment, Leo saw it through an entirely different lens.

He wasn't just an observer.

He was the next fighter.

And what he had just witnessed baffled him to his core.

From the moment Minerva fired her first arrow to the instant Su Yang shattered her Ice Wall, barely half a second had passed.

Half a second.

And yet, in that infinitesimal window of time—she had already moved nearly twenty meters from her original position.

Leo hadn't seen how she did it.

All he had perceived was a blur.

A flicker of motion—so fast, so seamless—it defied logic.

Was it a movement skill? A high-level footwork technique? Or was this just her natural speed?

He had no answer.

But what he did know—was that it was terrifying.

And if that wasn't enough, her battle awareness was even scarier.
