Chapter 61 – Defeated Yao Guang, ambushed
As soon as Yao Guang finished speaking, he lightly tapped the ground with his toes and vanished instantly from where he stood.
The spot where Yao Guang had stepped exploded into a large crater.
Qiao Yu's pupils contracted; this speed was on par with Tian Xuan!
His eyes couldn't catch Yao Guang's figure at all.
Suddenly!
A gust of wind rushed past his left ear!
Qiao Yu knew it was too late to dodge now.
He raised the Orient Loong God Crescent Blade and forcefully blocked the strike!
Clang!
It wasn't just speed; Yao Guang's strength was terrifyingly formidable!
Qiao Yu was swept away like a cannonball, blood gushing out.
"Ah, being able to break through the first six lines of defense proves your strength is quite formidable, but why didn't you leave?"
Yao Guang's footsteps grew closer.
"As the personal guard of the Mechanical Empress, I'm not like those six useless ones!"
Yao Guang's speed was as fast as lightning, and with the enhancement of his knuckle dusters, each punch was powerful and heavy.
Unable to keep up with Yao Guang's speed, Qiao Yu could only take the hits passively, his Health rapidly dropping below a thousand.
If this continued, being beaten to death by Yao Guang was just a matter of time.
"No! Dragging this out is just a slow death!"
Qiao Yu steeled his heart, facing Yao Guang's punch head-on without dodging.
"Boom!"
"Critical Hit! -233!"
A crimson number floated above Qiao Yu's head as Yao Guang's punch landed squarely on his chest, leaving him slightly stunned.
What was going on? Why did it seem like this kid deliberately took the punch with his chest?
Qiao Yu quickly gave Yao Guang an answer with his actions.
Taking advantage of Yao Guang's momentary daze after landing the punch, Qiao Yu grabbed Yao Guang's arm.
"So you're fast, huh? Let's see how fast you are now that I've got you!"
With that, Qiao Yu delivered a violent headbutt to Yao Guang's forehead.
Yao Guang's head buzzed instantly, realizing he had underestimated Qiao Yu, never expecting to get injured.
At this moment, Yao Guang's Attribute Panel finally appeared before Qiao Yu.
[Rare NPC: Yao Guang]
[Level: lv15]
[Health: 1900/2000]
[Strength: 118]
[Defense: 100]
[Agility: 180]
[Skills: Mechanical Might, Mechanical Overlord Fist]
Qiao Yu was delighted; his headbutt dealt 100 damage! If he could land twenty of those, he could take Yao Guang down!
"Duang!"
Before Yao Guang could react, Qiao Yu delivered another headbutt.
"Stop! Let go of me!"
Yao Guang tried to break free, but Qiao Yu's hands held him like iron clamps.

"Duang!"
Another headbutt landed, and Yao Guang's mechanical brain felt dizzy, suspecting his gyroscope was damaged.
"Duang!"
Yet another headbutt, and even though Qiao Yu's head was bleeding, he relentlessly continued to headbutt Yao Guang.
"Get off!"
Yao Guang activated the Mechanical Might skill, pushing Qiao Yu away.
His forehead was a bloody mess from Qiao Yu's headbutts, exposing the mechanical components inside.
Both their Health bars were now more than half depleted.
"I must admit, you're the strongest opponent I've ever faced!"
"In respect, you'll witness my ultimate technique!"
Yao Guang clenched his fist, gripping the knuckle duster tightly.
He couldn't afford to drag this out any longer; he needed to end this human with one strike!
"Is that so? Then you'll also see my ultimate technique!" Qiao Yu gripped the Orient Loong God Crescent Blade.
"Mechanical Overlord Fist!"
Yao Guang's punch formed a golden tiger, roaring towards Qiao Yu.
"Heavenly Tyrant Blade!"
Qiao Yu blurted out a random name, swinging his blade at Yao Guang.
The opponent gave up his speed advantage to clash head-on, presenting Qiao Yu with the best opportunity!
The tiger and the long blade collided, sending sand and sparks flying everywhere.
The impact sent debris into the air, engulfing both Qiao Yu and Yao Guang.
Boom!
The ancient palace collapsed under the impact, forming a large crater, dust swirling.
"Is the battle over? Who won, that kid or Yao Guang?"
The Zhou Family Brothers looked puzzled, only seeing sparks and energy clashing in the dust, unable to discern the outcome.
Finally, the dust slowly settled, revealing two figures standing.
Qiao Yu and Yao Guang stood back-to-back, still in their striking poses.
"Ugh!"
Yao Guang coughed up a mouthful of oil, collapsing limply to the ground, clearly defeated by Qiao Yu.
"The Heavenly Tyrant Blade is indeed powerful, your blade skills are truly remarkable! Human, you have won!"
Yao Guang slowly closed his eyes, turning into a Soul Core.
Qiao Yu's expression was peculiar; if Yao Guang knew the Heavenly Tyrant Blade was just a name he made up, would he be so angry he'd come back to life?

The Inner World System's notification sounded, announcing Qiao Yu's breakthrough to the Beginner Tier, becoming a Beginner Mage.
Qiao Yu checked his Attribute Panel.

"Phew! That was close, almost got killed by Yao Guang."
Seeing his remaining 140 Health, Qiao Yu felt relieved.
Fortunately, all seven generals were dealt with, and there were no more battles ahead; he just needed to obtain the Heart of Mechanics to finish this dungeon.
Qiao Yu reached for Yao Guang's Soul Core, feeling a surge of joy as he found something inside.
It seemed his luck was finally turning; Qiao Yu was about to see what treasure he had acquired.
At that moment, he felt a chilling sensation, as if death was approaching!
Squelch!
Before Qiao Yu could react, a sharp long blade pierced through his chest!
