Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 806: Xia Yu’s Battle (Part 1)

"Young lady, since you've already made up your mind, persuading you to withdraw would be an insult to a warrior. Tell me your name so this duel will be remembered in tales passed down by word of mouth!" Bedivere, walking into the arena, for the first time directly faced this girl prepared for battle.

"Xia Yu!"

"Oh, indeed a name fitting for the Daoist Realm. Although I don't know what it means, it sounds beautiful! Unfortunately, this beautiful name will wither here. Xia Yu, my name is Bedivere! Rest assured, after your death, I will send the commander who left you to face such formidable foes alone to Hell."

Bedivere finished speaking, reaching to fasten the visor on his helmet, when he heard the girl across from him sneer and ask coldly, "This is our fight, what does my commander have to do with it?"

"To leave a woman alone against enemies many times her strength, for that alone, he's bound for Hell!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu paused and then was suddenly filled with a nameless rage, glaring angrily at the gentlemanly middle-aged man before her. She understood that she should take advantage of his underestimation and not provoke him further into a one-on-one confrontation, but she couldn't suppress this fiery indignation and loudly questioned, "Woman? So you still see me that way! Old man, don't blame me for not warning you that standing before you is a warrior who has undergone rigorous training! In the coming battle, I will not hold back because of your courtesy and gentlemanly demeanor!"

Bedivere was shocked by the aura Xia Yu exuded and was even more shaken by her subsequent words.

"This battle, my life or death has nothing to do with my commander! Standing here is my own choice; we were prepared for this moment before entering this competition, I don't need you to remind me again and again. Everyone on the team is facing powerful enemies, why am I special? Just because I'm a woman? Old man, stop underestimating people! Leaving me here is a testament to their trust, and only by fighting to the last moment can I uphold that trust!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Just as Xia Yu said she was already prepared to fight to the death, at that time whether Pei Yan accepted Flamel's suggestion, ensuring the Investigation Hall's ranking is no longer important. This battle with the Magic Realm was bound to erupt sooner or later; Pei Yan, having come a long way, had grown beyond the novice investigator to shield others, and now that it was her turn, Xia Yu had no reason to retreat!

"Sorry, I apologize for my previous disrespect, you are a warrior! I should give you the respect due to a warrior. Just as you said, in the coming battle I will also give my all, hoping you will have no regrets with your choice when fighting to the last moment!"

Bedivere finished and properly secured his visor, stepping onto the ground, body like a meteor, in the blink of an eye, he charged in front of Xia Yu!

Thud! No tricks! Both exerted all their strength, their fists solidly striking each other's chests. After a dull metallic crash, Bedivere retreated over ten steps, the chest armor that had just recovered was again dented with a fist mark, while Xia Yu, whom he hit, was knocked off her feet, flying backward.

After being knocked dozens of meters away, Xia Yu's figure finally fell steadily to the ground, she spat a mouthful of blood onto the ground. The man before her was the toughest foe she had encountered since her debut. Unlike other powerhouses, her abilities that allowed her to stand out in the Superpower Realm were greatly diminished against him!

Pei Yan, Pei Jin were dueling with the Child of Origin, Ye Ruozai was also in a tough battle, Zheng Jia Ru was gathering energy for the upcoming showdown, everyone was too occupied to lend their abilities to her, the coming fight would rely on her alone.

Calm! I must stay calm! The situation isn't as bad as I thought! There must be a way for me to defeat him!

"Domain!" Xia Yu blurted out, releasing her domain, but this time, she didn't hurriedly launch a new round of attacks. Instead, she circled Bedivere around the arena, continuously releasing from her body one after another, condensed iron balls, and large iron spiked maces, among other bizarre weapons.

"Little girl, just pacing around won't win you the fight!" Although Bedivere had acknowledged Xia Yu's efforts, he still regarded her as a little girl. Watching this scene, he found it amusing and did not wish to prolong the battle further, he spun his body and initiated an attack in Xia Yu's direction.

This time, Xia Yu learned her lesson: realizing her pure strength was unable to match his, she switched to a mobile attack strategy, utilizing the combat skills honed through sparring with Pei Yan, neutralizing Bedivere's attacks. She evaded when possible and deflected what she couldn't, frequently launching joint attacks targeting the weak joints of her opponent. After a round of exchange, the two ended up in a back-and-forth struggle.

"Exceptional combat skills, you truly didn't exaggerate about your rigorous training! But you are still a bit lacking to defeat me!" After their bout, Bedivere praised Xia Yu's solid fighting techniques, reigniting his desire for battle. It was hard to imagine a large and armored man being so nimble; his stout source energy-imbued punches and kicks seemed to draw the air around them, creating a whistling sound, leaving Xia Yu less and less space to maneuver.

"Your teammate just said his presence is like a great mountain, asking if my magic can move such a mountain." Xia Yu suddenly spoke while evading a strike.

Hearing this puzzling statement, Bedivere chuckled without much thought, saying, "He wasn't exaggerating either! Once we've used our magic, you could indeed regard us as an unmovable mountain."

"There's a saying in my world!"

"Hmm? What saying?" Watching Xia Yu dodge his fists and suddenly leap back, Bedivere puzzled.

"If the mountain won't come to me, I shall go to the mountain!" Xia Yu leaped, smiling as she beckoned Bedivere with her finger.

Before Bedivere could understand the meaning of her words, there was a sound of something whistling through the air behind him. He instinctively swung his elbow back violently.

Thud! The massive sound of metal colliding caused his ears to ring, and he understood Xia Yu's meaning. Surrounding him floated one giant iron ball after another; as Bedivere tried to punch back, he found his arm feeling as if weighed down by a thousand pounds. The iron ball he had struck earlier, creating a deep dent, now stuck to his armor like a stubborn cling, refusing to budge!
