Answer: "No animal had a chance with me any more."

Explanation: In this excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell, the line that supports the claim that the general is proud or conceited is the one stated above. General Zaroff is very proud of his abilities as a hunter. He is telling Rainsford that hunting animals has bored him because it is too easy for him. He always gets his prey.
