It doesn’t seem arrogant to me. It reads as someone who is confident in their abilities and is unwilling to spend two hours in an artificial environment when they have a wealth of experience on offer already. OP even says they’d like to do their thing in addition to HackerRank if that is an absolute requirement.

Helpful hint: there are no absolute requirements in hiring, just various levels of filters than can be overridden at will.
