Solo fight.

The old man was lamenting the unfairness of the situation. This girl was going to fight and try to kill him, but if he killed her, he would be killed? The two of them were around the same cultivation level, him being a bit weaker than her. But this girl clearly did not have much fighting experience, if this was a normal fight, he had at least a 70% chance of beating her. But what other choice did he have, he would die if the tried to run away. Maybe he would be spared if he managed to hold on long enough?

With these thoughts in mind, the old man steeled himself and readied himself, Mental Energy radiating from his body. The reason Yao Jun had Guo Luo fight this old man was not just to have her get better at fighting, it was also so that she could learn how to use her illusions in a fight.

Guo Luo also took up her stance, holding the sword with both hands as she slowly made her way forward. The Mental Energy from the old man slowly made it's way through the air and into her body, trying it's best to confuse her mind.

The Mental Energy from the old man was given to him by his power, it allowed him to use his Mental Energy to disrupt his opponents thought process, confusing them and making it hard for them to focus and think straight.

The moment his Mental Energy made its way into Guo Luo's body, he dashed forward and used his right arm to punch out. His fist made contact with Guo Luo's abdomen, causing her body to bend forward as she gasped for breath.

The old man cast a quick glance at Yao Jun after he landed his punch, only upon seeing that Yao Jun's face was still as emotionless as before did he heave a sigh of relief. He immediately punched out sideways with his other fist in an attempt to land a hit on Guo Luo's face, but she managed to move backward just in time to dodge.

Guo Luo did not blame Yao Jun for not reacting after she was hit. She knew that this entire fight was to allow her to better protect herself in the future. To ensure that she could protect herself, now was not the time to be soft-hearted, now was the time for tough love.

After dodging the second punch of the old man, Guo Luo swung the sword in her hands upwards. The old man quickly reacted, pulling back his arm, but he was still grazed by the sword, opening a small wound on his forearm.

The old man did not pull back his body, he knew that it would be better for him to stay close to Guo Luo. His Mental Energy was still coursing through Guo Luo's body, so he assumed that it was safe to stick close to her. He had just stepped forward when he saw a flash of light coming at him from the left.

The old man quickly reacted, moving his entire body to the right in an attempt to dodge. While dodging, the old man cast a look at Yao Jun, trying to see whether or not it was him who was interfering. The old man had just moved to the right when he felt a sharp pain in his side. He quickly looked down and saw a black sword cut into the right side of his abdomen.

Shocked, he quickly pushed away the sword and tried to move backward. Once he moved back a bit, he saw a black sword sweeping towards him from the right. He quickly moved forward and to the left, casting his eyes to Yao Jun once more, but was shocked to feel a sharp pain coming from his left leg.

Looking down, he turned pale when he saw that very same black sword he had just seen come from the right, stabbed into his left leg, going straight through his thigh. Guo Luo pulled the sword out of his thigh and the old man fell down onto the ground, with a hole in this thigh, it was impossible for him to move.

While the old man was trying to figure out what had happened, Yao Jun had seen the entire thing clearly. Guo Luo's win was partly because of the opponents carelessness and partly because of her own quick thinking.

Her opponent was careless as he took his eyes off of Guo Luo once he saw a flash coming from the left, allowing Guo Luo to swing her sword from the right. After this, the old man slightly panicked, so when he pulled back and saw the sword coming from the right, he again took his eyes off of Guo Luo as he dodged forward, allowing her to pierce his leg.

Had he kept his eyes on Guo Luo, he would have seen that the flash of light, as well as the black sword that came from the right, were only illusions that she had momentarily conjured. Guo Luo's quick thinking lay in the fact that she noticed that her opponent took his eyes off her several times in the fight, casting glances at Yao Jun.

While the old man was shocked, and Yao Jun was analyzing the fight, Guo Luo herself was pleasantly surprised. At the start of the fight she had been confused and even slightly panicked, but she quickly found herself turning increasingly calm and clearheaded, ideas about how best to use her powers flowing into her mind.

"Good work that was very good for a first fight. Now kill him."

Yao Jun stepped forward, giving Guo Luo a few pats on the head as he praised her. After he praised her, he pointed to the bleeding old man. Yao Jun had seen the old man having sex with a 10-year-old girl he had just bought, there was no way he would spare him. The only reason he was still alive was so that he could be used as a whetstone for Guo Luo.

"Be quiet and kneel."

The old man was just about to say something when Yao Jun spoke out again, his Mental Energy drilling into the old man's mind. The old man had no way of resisting, quickly closing his mouth and kneeling down where he sat. Guo Luo stepped forward, sword in hand, and made another quick cut, the old man's head quickly separating from his body.

"Good..."

Yao Jun was just about to talk when he felt a trembling in his chest, from his Demon God's Gate. He was just about to inspect it when he suddenly noticed a stream of Mental Energy leave the corpse of the old man, flowing into Guo Luo's chest and mixing together with the hazy mist that continued to prod at his mind.
