I found the fact he classified the fights so far as mediocre more interesting: he is either concerned that this kids are gonna get killed when everything comes crashing down as he knows or has a really high standard, perhaps is even having a "when I was their age and took part of the tournament, I kicked some serious ass" moment.

I saw people complain that he didn't apparently enjoy his nieces duel, but, setting aside that was the bartenders impression, in case A) he might be worried, and in case B) he might just feel Ruby hasn't improved so much as she could have had she remained under his tuition.

And let's be honest, Ruby's performance against ABRN was a bit overwhelming.
