Xia Ning didn't want to get entangled by the octopus. Once its suckers stuck, it was hard to pull it off, and the octopus had three hearts!
Its visual impact is secondary compared to its troublesome nature.
Xia Ning is afraid of bugs and ghosts, so the ugly giant octopus has to come last.
She multitasked, maneuvering the ark to dodge the tentacles' attacks while simultaneously firing crossbow bolts whenever she could find an opening.

The arrow pierced the air and flew away.
The tentacles that slashed horizontally were severed by Xia Ning's [Greatsword].
