Hi! It seems to me that the correct summary of this section is the first one:

"The champion found a dragon in the house, and saw a shield that said whoever slayed the dragon would get the shield. He lifted up his stick, hit the dragon in the head, and with a horrible shriek, the dragon died."

Explanation:

I chose the first option because, although it is not the way I would write it, it is the one that best creates the tone and accomplishes with a summary characteristics.

A summary is not supposed to tell the story with all the details, it is supposed to tell the reader what the story is about. It is supposed to tell the big picture, the theme of the story.

The second option has many details, and I don't think it is the best way to create a summary. It tells more than it should. On the other hand, the first one, although it tells how the story ends and it definitely shouldn't, tells the reader what the story is about without so many details. That is why I chose the first option.
