Tony immediately stopped bickering with Ivan.
What he cared about wasn't the 10 credit points, but the fact that the second warning would be displayed on the public screen for ten seconds.
The third warning was a conspicuous 'lashing' that would be pinned in the channel until the end of the battle, and then analyzed for all team members to 'admire.'
What was even more troublesome was that this was the Bat Squad's training rules.
It was mainly aimed at instances when people used the public channel to make noise about something petty.
It was impossible to forbid any sort of chatter during battle, so scores could only be settled later.
Tony wouldn't fall out with Knight just because his name was used in the other party's 'internal teaching materials.'
After Tony and Ivan shut up, their battle to one up each other became more intense.
