He actually forfeited?
When Du Meng admitted defeat, Mo Yi was genuinely baffled.
Based on Du Meng's performance up to that point, Mo Yi had thought he would fight him to the bitter end.
Well, in Mo Yi's mind, Du Meng had become a reckless brawler through and through.
So seeing him forfeit outright left Mo Yi surprised.
