Silence, complete silence enveloped the scene.
Tangyu's actions were almost too brutal to watch. Such a defeat had exceeded the point of a friendly spar. As a member of high society, being knocked down twice would make anyone feel a loss of face. If it had been just once, followed by a cessation of the fight, it would have been laughed off. But this was a direct assault on one's dignity. Liu Dingyang, being a proud man, couldn't endure such humiliation.
Admitting defeat was out of the question. The notorious Liu Dingyang admitting defeat? Never.
Even if it meant dying there, he was determined to keep fighting. Liu Dingyang quickly got up again after falling once more, his face uglier and his glare at Tangyu more terrifying than ever. That look alone was chilling.
