A blush crept up on Miao Shaoshi's face. However, he felt cornered at this point and had been told he had no choice but to win. Otherwise, he might miss out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
He simply could not allow this to happen, so he gritted his teeth and blurted out, "Xiao Qiang, do you dare compete with me using poison?"
Xiao Qiang laughed and said, "I never thought that people from the western territories can be so shameless. Is it the norm for your people to lack integrity and act like dishonest cowards?"
The spectators from the west watching the duel fell silent. It was clear to them that Miao Shaoshi and his companions were being deceitful. However, as fellow westerners, they felt obliged to stand up for their own. Feeling helpless, they simply chose to remain silent. Yet upon hearing Xiao Qiang's words, some felt humiliated and chose to leave the scene.
In the blink of an eye, most of the crowd around the arena had dissipated.
