Guo Yuan himself had no intention of engaging in a large-scale battle. After Yu Jin's elite troops charged forward, he was forced to lead his personal army out of necessity to confront them. Though he and Yu Jin both had refined Qi to Gang, Guo Yuan was far more confident in his individual strength compared to Yu Jin.
Unfortunately, no matter how confident Guo Yuan was, he couldn't change one fact: hastily leading his army to confront Yu Jin's well-trained elite private troop resulted in chaos, with men and horses thrown about.
Yu Jin's elite soldiers, trained with the objective of killing generals and capturing banners, were prepared for this exact moment. These five hundred men working together could achieve feats that Inner Qi Manifestation within a chaotic army obscured by Cloud Qi could accomplish individually.
