Although Zhou Tian did not really want to fight with those Heavenly Eye Users, it was clear that according to Zhou Tian's itinerary at the time, if he wanted to achieve his goal, it was estimated that the battle would be inevitable.
Thus, no matter what Zhou Tian originally thought, since at this moment it was destined that there would be a battle with those Heavenly Eye Users, Zhou Tian would not retreat. At most, if possible, Zhou Tian would win while trying to avoid killing too many Heavenly Eye Users.
And given the situation at the time, it wasn't surprising that Zhou Tian chose to hide. Although he did not fear those Heavenly Eye Users, in a situation like that, if those Heavenly Eye Users, full of morale, saw Zhou Tian upon arriving at the battlefield, even if they couldn't capture him, it would probably not be an easy task for Zhou Tian to repel them.
