The spirit law's boost to one's reaction speed was actually far less noticeable than its enhancement of the body.
Forcing the increase could make one move too fast for one's reactions to keep up.
But Yun Ye's Heart Flame allowed him to adjust the ratio freely. Even though he had only used it a few times, there was still no serious problem.
"It doesn't need to be too fast. As long as I'm faster than the enemy, that's enough..."
Yun Ye's boost while in the Heart Flame state was several dozen times greater, but that was after removing the Fire Bath Feather Garment. The Fire Bath Feather Garment itself provided roughly a fourfold enhancement, so in reality, Yun Ye was at most ten times faster than he was in that state.
But that was still absurdly fast. There was no need to go that fast, so Yun Ye deliberately slowed himself down, lest he be interrogated again.
Li Shui's reaction speed was probably about fifty percent faster than Yun Ye's while he was wearing the Fire Bath Feather Garment. In Li Shui's eyes, Yun Ye was a sluggish person moving at 0.66 times speed; nothing he did could escape Li Shui's scrutiny.
But that was only reaction speed. Li Shui's displayed physical speed was not greater than Yun Ye's, so Yun Ye merely raised his own speed to 2.5 times that of the feather garment state. That was enough for an overwhelming victory.
And if Li Shui still had another card up his sleeve, even if it was only slightly stronger, Yun Ye would immediately admit defeat.
It wasn't that he hadn't worked hard. It was that the enemy was too strong.JPG
"Boom!"
The gale burst outward. Yun Ye experienced what it meant to move like he was breaking through
