Unfortunately, he is still conscious and has enough presence of mind to determine whether he will surrender or not. So his loss will be more humiliating.
He didn't want that at all. He wanted to die rather than accept defeat.
But before he could say so, Master Owl Claw spoke up from behind him.
The old man said, "He surrenders. It is his loss. No, it is our Owl Claw dojo's loss. You are indeed worthy of being a master. The Owl Claw dojo won't stand in your way of teaching the basic technique for free."
Skylar's face fell. He was so ashamed that he lowered his head.
He had wanted to die in the fight, but he can't do that now that his master has surrendered for him. To continue to fight is to disrespect his master and shame the Owl Claw dojo in front of so many people.
