#### A New Rule

Dumpling Prince angrily interrogates Cave on whether he was flirting with his girl, accusing him of taking advantage of his naive girlfriend. Cave denied the accusations, claiming that his girlfriend flirted with him first and dismissed her being innocent. A PK is then instigated and Dacon is summoned as a referee. Dumpling Prince requests to hang up Cave in the Yopi Land Square for three days without any clothes and Cave wants all the money in his bank account.

 Dumpling Prince uses Gladiator's Rage to buff himself and launches a Gladiator's Strike, but Cave dodges it. Cave then taunts him, saying he treats his girl like he owns her which is why she wants to leave him and then implied he was ugly which further enrages the ranker. Dumpling Prince uses Gladiator Charge and strikes at Cave, but Cave uses Multiple Barriers to absorb the impact. Although surprised, Dumpling Prince boasts about the skill being his weakest attack and as he is about to attack Cave again, he suddenly cannot breathe and dies from lung failure, with Cave emerging victorious. 5 Million Won is then transferred to Cave's bank account in the real world.
