Yes, focus. Lee was a shinobi; a proud warrior of Konoha and not just some simpering genin. He could do this. He wouldn't let himself be overcome again.

Going into a proper attack stance, Lee called on his inner calm and attempted to keep Neji's training in check. Keep his palms open...

A thought came to him then, and just as the creature kicked away the chain Lee dropped his gaze to the lower half of her body--the deer half. It was one of his sensei's tricks, how he overcame the Sharingan after years of training against Kakashi. If he looked down he was less likely to be caught off-guard by her mind tricks and he could focus on the bunch of her muscles, allowing his quick sight to catch a hint of her next move.
