The Human Giant

The movement technique was divided into three stages corresponding to each level of the martial arts stage. The first level was the Four Legs stage where he would be able to move so fast that it would look like he had two pairs of legs.

At this stage, he would be able to move freely in four directions. The second stage was the Eight Legs stage where his speed would double and he would be able to move freely in eight directions. The last stage was the Sixteen Legs stage and his speed would once again double.

At that speed, the book said that every time he activated this technique it would look like he had 16 legs each allowing him to move in one of 16 Cardinal directions. It was a great way to be able to move around the battlefield unhindered and impossible to hit.

"Okay, let\'s see how far I can progress before Blood Master Steel wakes up." You muttered to himself.

He quickly moved a few feet away from Blood Master Steel\'s unconscious body to give him some room and he began to follow the steps of the Centipede Steps movement techniques. Following the steps made him look awkward and clumsy but after falling a few times he was able to quickly begin to feel the rhythm of the steps.

It didn\'t take him long before he could casually use Centipede Steps to walk around even though he was slow. Once Yoze had gotten a good feeling of how Centipede Steps movements worked he began to speed up.

A few hours quickly passed by as Yoze was fully focused on his legs as he had 8 legs below him moving below him. From left and right, forward and back, and a combination of the two Yoze was able to swiftly change his direction at the drop of a hat without having to slow down at all.

While Yoze was focused on training his movement technique a floating eyeball was watching him from afar. Behind that eyeball was a shocked Blood Master Scarlett who had been watching Yoze.

"There is no way a person can learn a movement technique so fast right? Maybe he had already learned it many years ago but decided to go back to the basics and start all over?" Blood Master Scarlett shook her head in defeat as she knew that what she said was nonsense.

She had been a martial artist long enough to tell when someone was just starting to train in new techniques and an expert who was going back to the basics. The two were not similar at all as a newbie would always look clumsy and uncomfortable when they first started regardless of what they were practicing in.

She had gone through that experience countless times and could see that Yoze had been at that stage just a few hours ago. Yet she still found it hard to believe that he could go from having no foundation in this movement technique to being extremely well-versed and practiced.

His speed of progress could be said to have been abnormal and shouldn\'t have been possible regardless of how talented a martial artist was. Any martial art technique needs years of constant practice to be able to reach the peak yet Yoze seemed to be able to do so in less than a day.

Blood Master Scarlett felt both marveled and horrified at how much talent Yoze had shown her. 

"No wonder Blood Master Steel lost so easily, there was no way he could win against someone that is this talented in martial arts. A decade of training and progress had been compressed to less than a day for Yoze."

"Mine and Blood Master Steel\'s combined years of progress probably pales in comparison to how much progress he has made in less time." Blood Master Scarlett muttered to herself behind her dirt barrier.

Blood Master Scarlett always viewed herself as being talented in martial arts even if she wasn\'t the best. But what she saw today made her feel that she was too proud of herself.

If there were people as talented as Blood Master Steel and Yoze then her talent in martial arts wasn\'t very high. She could even be considered to be talentless.

She had given up decades of her life to practicing martial arts but was only able to become a Blood Master. If Yoze had that amount of time he would have become a Martial Grandmaster a long time ago.

"Luckily, I found out that I am talented in witchcraft or my confidence in myself would crumble." Blood Master Scarlett sighed with relief knowing that she had something that Yoze would never be able to compete with her in.

After reassuring herself, Blood Master Scarlett composed herself and watched Yoze train with a renewed calm. No matter how much he progressed it would not affect her since she had decided to focus on becoming a witch.

A few hours passed by as Yoze had stopped training in Centipede Steps since he had reached its peak an hour ago. He had thought about trying to surpass the limits of Centipede Steps but he decided to hold back since he was being watched by someone that could become his enemy.

Luckily for Yoze and Blood Master Scarlett just as the sun was setting, they caught signs of Blood Master Steel beginning to regain consciousness. Noticing that Blood Master Steel was starting to wake up, Yoze prepared himself to use his spiritual energies to suppress him if he tried to attack him.

"Should I devour his spiritual energy?"

As Yoze watched Blood Master Steel wake up he contemplated whether he should spiritually kill Blood Master Steel so he could just take his body and copy his talents.
