Skarg continued advising Slav, saying, "His identity as a previous slave doesn't matter for your defeat. Your defeat is embarrassing on its own, but the fact that he was a previous slave doesn't matter because he is a cultivator now, not a slave, and because your victory over him wouldn't have counted if his identity as a slave mattered. After all, how could you be proud of defeating a slave?"
"What matters is that you're just 15 years old, you're inexperienced in fighting, and the fact that cultivators of the Money Pathway aren't suited for fighting directly in a constrained arena. So you had many handicaps that led to your defeat."
"As for your opponent, I will admit that I've underestimated him. But you don't have to worry anymore about him. He is doomed."
Slav didn't understand how Loki was doomed, so he asked, "How come? Didn't he just defeat me and win the competition? Is there something wrong with the reward for the competition?"
