"Don't worry, I won't make a move against you!"
This is what contestant number 1 said to contestant number 3, then continued:
"But I also hope you won't attack me; can you agree to that?"
Now number 2 to the right of number 1 has been eliminated, and the left side is empty.
This means, as long as number 3 doesn't make a move against him, he is basically invincible.
Because with their current skills, contestant number 4 can't attack number 1 at all.
This is why number 1 eliminated number 2 right off the bat.
Facing number 1's goodwill, number 3 remained silent for a moment before saying:
"Sure!"
After receiving the response, number 1 seemed satisfied and smiled:
"Great."
"Pleasure to cooperate, my friend."
With the competition just started, two contestants have been eliminated so far.
This means that as long as 3 more are eliminated, the remaining 5 will advance smoothly.
