I see the same, on a Bullseye system.

root@dragon:~# timedatectl  timesync-status
       Server: 198.74.51.125 (2.debian.pool.ntp.org)
Poll interval: 34min 8s (min: 32s; max 34min 8s)    
         Leap: normal

This box is running systemd, and ntp is not present.

The dhcp server shows:


subnet 192.168.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
    option broadcast-address 192.168.100.255;
    option routers 192.168.100.31;
    option domain-name-servers 192.168.100.30, 192.168.100.6, 192.168.100.31; # chaffee, hawk, freeman
    option domain-search "localdomain", "virtual", "yen";

    option domain-name "localdomain";
    option ntp-servers 192.168.100.31; # freeman, AKA ntp.localdomain
    # range 192.168.100.1 192.168.100.254;
