Yang Zhao’s expression was plain as he looked at Yang Tie and said quietly, "Let’s begin."
He was not too convinced about what Guo Chaoyang said to him before this, but Guo Chaoyang’s observation that his level of mastery was not only stagnant, it was starting to show signs of regression. Yang Zhao was acutely aware about this problem.
He was very clear about his own problems, and even though he was unwilling to admit it, Yang Zhao knew that the rise to power of the disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders distressed him a little. This problem of regression was purely psychological and on an emotional level.
The antagonistic attitude he possessed towards the Celestial Sect of Wonders, his insatiable need to eliminate them, and the sense of humiliation he felt when the disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders gave him help – everything stemmed from his own confusion and came from the doubts he had about himself, and led to the erosion of his Daoist heart.
