Unlike a Martial Apprentice, he sensed a change in her physicality. Her physiology had improved beyond what he would have expected in just a year or so after entering puberty.
She was already superhuman in her physical power, but she had grown even stronger since then. That was a massive difference from the Apprentice Realm, where the physical body remained unchanged, but a greater portion of the neurological potential of the brain was unlocked, allowing for unprecedented mechanical efficiency with her body.
What was especially stunning was the fact that he sensed that she had undergone that kind of change as well, as if partaking from the Martial Path a little.
'Ah…' his eyes lit up with understanding. 'She has also inherited the natural bodily evolution that Martial Bodies are programmed with.'
