Chapter 763: Chapter 749: Battle between the True and Fake Heiress

They arrived at the floor where the dueling arena was located.

"What do we do now?" Xia Xi looked around and then turned to Xia Yue to ask.

"In the arena, you earn points through various battle scenarios, then level up. The higher your level, the more floors you can access. You can also exchange points for rewards; the more points you have, the better the rewards you can exchange for.

Besides ranked matches, there are casual matches; we’ll play those.

It’ll be our five against your five. We can draw lots to choose opponents or pick our own, then go up to duel one by one. Whichever team wins the most, that team wins," Xia Yue explained the rules of the arena briefly to them.

"Fine, I’ll duel you," Xia Xi said, looking at her.

"Fine, a face-off between the true and false heiresses will certainly be a spectacle to behold," Xia Yue agreed with a laugh.

"Then I’ll duel you," Milia said, turning to Sena.

Sena nodded helplessly.

"Then I’ll duel you," Yan Mo said, looking at Mo Si.

"Fine," Mo Si smiled.

"Then I’ll duel you," Wei Se said, looking at Ziluo, feeling the divine power emanating from her.

"Fine," Ziluo nodded.

"Then that leaves you to duel with me," Yun Peng said to Xia Yu with a sigh. He was the strongest here, yet he was paired with the weakest. Looking at his teammates, he said, "You guys go all out at the start, aim for three wins, so I don’t have to make a move. I’m afraid I’ll break him."

Xia Yu: "..." Knowing he was weak was one thing, but being so blatantly scorned still left him feeling uncomfortable.

"No problem, we’ll aim for three victories," Ziluo said with a smile.

"To win, you’ll have to defeat me," Wei Se said to Ziluo. The others might not know, but Ziluo was definitely no match for him. The divine power in her wasn’t that intense, not very strong.

"You won’t know if you don’t try," Ziluo replied with a smile. She could also feel the pressure from her opponent, whose divine power was even more intense than hers, and their Divinity a notch higher, putting her at a disadvantage.

"If we go all out in the duel here, will it affect reality?" Xia Xi asked Xia Yue.

"There might be some psychological impact. After all, it’s a hundred percent realistic holographic mode. Getting hit will actually hurt, and if you die, it really feels like it.

But you can adjust your senses if you like. I’m scared to death of pain, so I’ve turned down the sense of it," Xia Yue said.

"No need, I think this makes it more realistic. Since it doesn’t have much effect on reality, let’s give it our all and see just where our limits are," Xia Xi said to Xia Yue. She’d been itching for a no-holds-barred duel to test her strength but had always been held back by concerns in reality, worried about injuries that took long to heal.

Here, she had no such worries.

Xia Yue swallowed hard at the sight of the fighting spirit in Xia Xi’s eyes. She just wanted to spar a bit, not fight to the death.

After a moment’s thought, realizing she’d be disappointed if she didn’t make an effort, Xia Yue could only psych herself up and prepare mentally.

"We feel the same way," Mo Si said to Yan Mo.

"Fine," Yan Mo nodded. He too wanted to test his own limits.

"Looks like they’re determined to fight to the end. We’ll wait for them to finish before we have our duel," Ziluo said to Wei Se after observing the others.

"Fine, I don’t mind," Wei Se was indifferent. She was just looking to have some fun, not to fight to the death like them.

All set, the first to take the stage were Xia Yue and Xia Xi.

"Let me test your strength and see if you’ve kept up with my recent efforts," Xia Xi said full of anticipation to Xia Yue.

"I’ll stick with it to the end." Standing on the stage, infected by the atmosphere, Xia Yue felt a surge of combativeness.

"Then I declare, the first match, begin." Zheng Tang announced from below, then directed the flying device around them to capture the thrilling moments.

Xia Yue made the first move, sending several water jets flying towards Xia Xi.

Xia Xi immediately set up a barrier in front of her to block the water jets and then quickly launched an attack on her.

Taking advantage of their link in the different space, Xia Yue dodged to the side, her figure flickering as she moved in close to Xia Xi.

Seeing her approach, Xia Xi dispelled the barrier and attacked while retreating.

Back and forth they went, both sustaining some injuries, but still, they continued to attack.

The more they fought, the deeper the combativeness in their eyes grew.

Xia Yue had intended to just spar, and when the time came, she would find an opportunity to lose or defeat her and call it a day, but now she was also immersed, wanting to have a real fight with Xia Xi.

After fighting for over two hours, with the last bit of strength exhausted, both of them collapsed on the ground, covered in wounds and gasping for air as they faced each other.

"I won." Xia Xi mustered her last bit of strength, staggered to her feet, and said to Xia Yue, who only wanted to close her eyes and take a good sleep.

"You won." Too tired to want to stand up, Xia Yue just wanted to lie down and sleep. Seeing Xia Xi get up, who was also declared the winner

She looked towards her teammates and said, "Sorry, I really can’t get up."

"It’s okay, you did great." Yan Mo went up to her, helped her up; he wanted to carry her even more, but was afraid of being too forward, plus Xia Yu was down there, if he dared to do so, he probably would have come up and fought him for her.

"Boss, don’t blame yourself, you performed much better than usual, at least you fought to the end, and held out for so long," Sena said to Xia Yue, who she had spent so much time with and understood her personality. To have battled to this point, she too had given her all.

"Xixi, do you want to use healing to recover, or do you want to keep feeling this pain?" Xia Yue, assisted by Yan Mo to her seat, looked at Xia Xi being supported by Mo Si and asked.

"Let’s recover a bit, it really hurts too much," Xia Xi said with a smile, wincing from her wounds.

"Recover thirty percent? Or half?" Xia Yue let herself recover eighty percent, as she didn’t want to torture herself like this.

"Fifty percent," said Xia Xi, watching her original wounds heal.

"Okay." Xia Yue used her authority to cast the healing spell, directly restoring her to fifty percent.

"This is not bad, if only it was possible in reality," Ziluo exclaimed, watching them instantly recover from their previously miserable state.

"You wish." Xia Yue said.

"Water of Life has that effect, but it’s extremely precious and scarce; it’s the sacred water of the Elf Clan," Milia explained.

"Water of Life? Didn’t Sena give some to Qu Xin before?" Xia Yue immediately thought of when Sena had offered it to Qu Xin upon her arrival at the resort area.

"That was just dew collected from the Tree of Life, not the actual Water of Life, which is guarded by the Elf King," Milia shook her head and said.

"I see," Xia Yue nodded in understanding.

"Let’s not talk about this now, let’s continue the competition. Who’s going to go first?" Ziluo noticed they were getting sidetracked with their conversation and nearly forgot about the competition, so she reminded them.
