Compared to the flattery showered on the victor, most people tended to sympathize with the fallen combatant.
Since everyone was a martial artist and death could come unexpectedly any day, mourning the fallen and showing respect for them was an unwritten rule amongst warriors.

"Tang Tianjiao!" Arbitrator Xiao Qi, whose body was covered in blood, glared at Tang Luo and barked, "I called an end to the duel when your Innate Divine Sword shattered Xiao Ziyu's Monument Dragon Diagram. Why didn't you cease your assault? Why did you keep thrusting your Innate Divine Sword into your opponent's body?!"
Tang Luo feigned surprise, "Really? You called for a halt? I didn't hear you. As you know, a fighter must focus entirely on the fight. It's hard to pay attention to outside events."
