The dwarf was only half as tall as a full-sized adult.
With a sharp dagger in each hand, he swung them around while fixating on Wu Xiaode and said,
"I hate you tall, good-looking bastards the most. Watch me carve up your face!"
Yet Wu Xiaode hopped off the arena.
The dwarf was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Have you admitted defeat?"
"No, didn't Elder Qian just lose? I came up to say a few words to him, that's all. I'll enter the arena again when it officially starts," Wu Xiaode replied.
"But it has started!" the dwarf exclaimed incredulously.
"But I don't know any of the rules—I just looked at the number card, and there's a clause that says I can learn the rules first before entering the arena," Wu Xiaode explained.
The long-haired man interjected, "But in the City Lord battle, reading the rules can take no longer than ten minutes, otherwise you will be deemed to have lost."
"Ten minutes? Alright, then ten minutes it is," Wu Xiaode said.
Ten minutes passed.
