Power Progression

Background / History

Guo founded the Sky Eagle Mercenary Group with eleven companions and led it to Gold rank. The group accepted a contract to assassinate Lin Haidong after investigating his violent conduct, but learned too late that he was the illegitimate son of the head of the Heaven Dou Empire’s Spirit Hall branch. Forty-eight Soul Emperor–level bishops ambushed the twelve mercenaries. Guo escaped only because his eleven companions sacrificed themselves; he subsequently lived under an assumed identity and swore revenge on Spirit Hall 87.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, Guo led an alliance of Soul Masters competing for the Seven-Petal Orchid and other spoils. He helped corner Elder Lin, then tried to place blame for the elder’s death on Lin Feng and Zhu Qin after they betrayed him. When a valuable Soul Bone appeared, Guo pursued Yang Chong alongside four other Soul Emperors, burning his blood essence during the chase 70 72 74 75.

Yang Que seized the Soul Bone after the pursuers had exhausted themselves. When Huang Dabiao arrived and immobilized them, Guo was the first to offer submission. He swore loyalty to Yang Que and became one of the founding followers of the faction Yang Que intended to build 75 76. Guo later transferred 7,200 points from his former mercenary group token to Yanhuang, helping it reach Grandmaster rank, and formally joined the group 86.

Guo eventually told Yang Que and their companions about the Sky Eagle group’s destruction. Yang Que promised to help him seek justice from Spirit Hall within five years, and the others pledged their support 87.

Personality

Guo is quick to assess leverage and danger. He held together a self-interested alliance in the forest, recognized that Yang Que was stalling for Huang Dabiao, and later inferred Yang Que’s ambition to establish a faction 71 75 76. His initial submission was driven by survival, but Yang Que’s support and the prospect of avenging his companions gave him a personal reason to remain 75 83 87.

He can also be overconfident: while guiding the group through the Far North, he relied on his instincts despite being unable to read the map and led them in the opposite direction from the Ruins 91 92.
