The crowd felt that they had been shown a battle they didn't expect. No one knew that the seemingly weak and kind abyssal serpent was actually a terrifying force. Specifically, that Onyx could take on adventures with greater strength without losing immediately.
It was true that General Marshal had not used his full strength. That was just hope he was asked to fight. Yet, he had been underestimating Onyx just enough to get tricked in to a rough situation.

It was mostly his own desire to train against him though. Onyx was much tougher now than he had been the last time Gil had a match against him.
