In reality, although that Divine King repeatedly thought that given the situation at the time, Zhou Tian wouldn't be able to fight him for long, after facing Zhou Tian and quickly falling into a disadvantage, even though that Divine King persisted, the reinforcements he hoped for showed no signs of coming.
Given the circumstances at the time, if the reinforcements that that Divine King was expecting didn't show up, then he would have to rely on his own strength to contend with Zhou Tian. Clearly, relying solely on his own power to defeat Zhou Tian was utterly impossible.
Thus, without reinforcements, if that Divine King continued to battle Zhou Tian with his strength, he needn't think about how to deal with Zhou Tian; if he wasn't defeated by Zhou Tian, it would be considered a great fortune.
And in such a dangerous environment, that Divine King would inevitably have some other thoughts.
