While Rocky contemplated his choices for the sword path he was going to choose as his reward, two other massive upgrades were silently bestowed upon him, unbeknownst to him at the time.
Firstly, his non-physical attributes were being enhanced in real time as his body's nervous system, including all the nerves and the synaptic connections in his brain, received a significant upgrade.
While the first tier promotion test had improved his physique, muscle, and bone quality, the second tier promotion test focused on enhancing attributes such as Dexterity, Intelligence, and Stamina.
Rocky could now perform precise movements with remarkable accuracy due to his enhanced nervous system.
The improvement allowed his brain to send signals to his muscles more efficiently, enabling him to execute complex and delicate maneuvers with ease.
