"You must show that you are worth enough to take the rest..." hmm, sounds ominous. Sounds like the foreshadowing for betrayal. I would've declined them on these grounds alone. Since they're asking for my help and all.

Nah. Fight or flight. He triggered their flight response when he got them to drop their weapons. When they realized they won't be shown any mercy the only option left was to fight. They could've died running or died fighting. Which would you choose?
If you've read Kingdom, this character reminds me of Earl Shi (sp) The Wei Fire dragon and the big guy reminds me of the other Wei General the Ouki refused to kill.
I didn't even had to read the description synopsis to know that there was going to be marriage contract that was going to be breached, and arrogant woman and the MC being called trash. This was probably go on for another 100 chapters. LOL
