Yeah, the duel was set up from the beginning and they would make it a "no win" situaion to naofumi:

1. As occurred in the episode, naofumi lose after that malty cheats to attack him from the back with her magic and the king make sure that no one support him to make official  his defeat.

2. But if Naofumi would manage to wins, perhaps the king and the public would denounce the "dirty tactics" of naofumi for used monster to attack motoyasu and maybe the king will declare the duel as victory to motoyasu to force naofumi accept the defeat.
