Traveling across the globe for the first time

Chapter 1049 The Depressed Western Emperor

In fact, Zhang Haoran already had a plan in his mind and knew how to win the next game, so he was not in a hurry at all. He adjusted his condition to the best first, because he would not have so much time to rest in the next level.

"Clap clap clap!"

He was in a relaxed state and made his moves very quickly, as if he was really competing with his opponent in thinking speed.

Xi Huang played the game very seriously. He had never played this kind of fast chess before, so he put in all his effort.

He not only had to win the first game, but also win beautifully, and the fight had to end within ten minutes.

He thought to himself, "Aren't you afraid that I'll delay you? Then let's see who plays chess faster."

The scene of the two men competing against each other was spectacular. Chess pieces appeared on the board with afterimages, as if the game was not about who could win the game, but about who could place the pieces faster.

"Crack!"

The sound of chess pieces colliding with the chessboard continued to ring out at a very high frequency, sounding like rain hitting banana leaves. In just one minute, the two had placed hundreds of pieces.

Zhang Haoran's expression was still so calm, and he attacked without any hesitation. As long as the opponent made a move, he would follow immediately.

However, the Western Emperor frowned. The speed was so fast that he had no time to calculate and could only make his moves based on his experience.

If you don't look at the chessboard, but only look at the expressions of the two men, you would think that Zhang Haoran has the upper hand.

As time went by, there were more and more chess pieces, and Xi Huang's brows furrowed more tightly. The speed of placing chess pieces gradually slowed down. Now there were hundreds of chess pieces on the board, and there would be more subsequent changes. If he didn't calculate carefully, he was afraid of making mistakes, so he had to think about it before each move.

When Zhang Haoran saw that Xi Huang's chess playing speed had slowed down, he immediately said sarcastically, "Haha! Don't worry, you have ten breaths to think about it slowly.

Think it over before you act.

No regrets on your move!

We don't regret our moves!"

To show his contempt for the Western Emperor, he made his moves even faster, as if he didn't need to think at all.

In fact, he really didn't think about it. He just blocked the line with more white pieces. He didn't need to use his brain at all.

As for the subsequent layout...

He didn't think about winning at all, he just made the moves randomly, so how could he have any plan?
Often, as soon as the Western Emperor made a move, he would immediately follow suit, as if urging the other party to make a move quickly.

The old face of the Western Emperor turned red when he heard this. He had been immersed in chess for tens of thousands of years. It was really embarrassing that he had to think slowly when playing chess with a novice.

"Isn't it just a game of fast chess? Who's afraid of who?"

"With the tactics I've figured out over thousands of years, it shouldn't be easy for me to defeat a novice like you."

The Western Emperor was not to be outdone, and the speed of his moves increased again. So the two of them played chess like they were fighting a war, with the crackling sounds endless.

It didn't take long before both sides made hundreds of moves.

At this time, Xi Huang also discovered the problem. Zhang Haoran's chess playing style gave him a headache.

Although he had a better opportunity, he refused to make a move and insisted on blocking his own side first.

By the way, I've just connected four chess pieces in a line, why are you in such a hurry? This is Nine in a Row, not Gomoku. It's too much for you to block it so tightly, right?
Holy shit! Still coming! You're already betting after only three pieces in a row. Is this still fun?
The Western Emperor kept complaining in his heart that this game of chess was too depressing. Sometimes Zhang Haoran clearly had the opportunity to create a better situation and make a counterattack, but he simply turned a blind eye and insisted on blocking all the chess moves on this side, leaving no chance at all, which made the Western Emperor very depressed.

He glanced at Zhang Haoran angrily. "Does that mean you play chess like that? You're just blocking after three or four pieces are connected. You're too cautious!"

You don't even look at your own situation, you just keep staring at me. Is playing chess like this fun? Don't you want to win?
Zhang Haoran didn't even raise his head. When he saw chess pieces connected together, he would immediately place a piece to block them. In this situation, it was difficult to connect five pieces in a line, let alone nine pieces in a row.

The entire chessboard was filled with alternating black and white pieces, and at most only a few six-piece chains were formed. That was because as pieces were placed more and more, there were more and more changes, and some places could not be blocked in time.

Zhang Haoran didn't even think about how to win, he just blocked all possible routes based on his intuition.

If you are playing Gobang and your opponent is not thinking about how to win but blocking all your attack routes, it will be very difficult to win, especially when it is Nine Men Connected.

Even if Zhang Haoran didn't pay much attention, with his good eyesight he wouldn't make any obvious mistakes, and the game came to a stalemate.

Both sides made hundreds of moves.

Finally, the Western Emperor gained a certain advantage with his years of experience. Every step he took afterwards could pose a certain threat, leading the opponent by the nose. After a while, he could no longer hold back.

After he placed a piece, two eight-piece chains appeared on the intersecting routes. No matter which side he blocked, a nine-piece chain would be formed on the other side.

When Zhang Haoran saw the situation, he simply dropped the chess piece in his hand and admitted defeat very readily.

He laughed easily and said, "Haha, Senior's chess skills are indeed superb. I am no match for him. I lose this game!

Come on!
Let’s have another plate!
I find this Nine Sons Linked Together to be increasingly interesting."

Xihuang finally won a game within five minutes and finally avoided embarrassment. He didn't have time to catch his breath and enjoy the joy of victory.

Zhang Haoran began to clear the chessboard and prepare for the next game. He finally couldn't help but ask, "You don't plan your own moves, but just try to block me. How can you win?"

You cannot talk while playing chess so as not to disturb the other person's thinking. This is also the default rule. Taking advantage of the opportunity when he was cleaning up the chessboard, Xi Huang finally asked the doubts in his heart.

Zhang Haoran said nonchalantly, "It's just the first game, winning or losing doesn't matter.

I have never played Nine Men's Link before, so I don't quite understand the tricks. I always have to familiarize myself with the rules first.

Ha ha!

I mainly want to learn from you and see what the tricks are in this Nine Sons Link. Once I am fully familiar with it, I will consider how to win.

Therefore, seniors can give full play to their abilities and do not need to show mercy!"

Well! This is a good excuse. At least it won't arouse the other party's suspicion for the time being.

"I see!"

The Western Emperor nodded in agreement. After all, the other party had never played this kind of chess before, so it was reasonable for him to first understand the tactics involved.

He didn't want to start the next game right away, so he said, "Young man, why don't you take a break and think carefully about the game just now?"

Under normal circumstances, after finishing a game of chess, you should think carefully about what mistakes you made and what were the highlights. This way you can continuously improve your chess skills.

Zhang Haoran waved his hand and said, "No need! I like to practice by fighting. Playing chess is something you'll get used to after a few games!"
Come!
Let’s start the second set!
I can't wait any longer! In the second game, he did everything he could to block his opponent's attack routes, without even thinking about how to win, because it was easier to do so.

This time Zhang Haoran was a little more serious, and Xihuang made hundreds more moves before winning the game.

However, playing chess like this made him a little depressed. Due to time constraints, he couldn't think for too long, and it was not easy to make a plan.

After all, Zhang Haoran is also a superstar. His thinking speed is not slow, so it is impossible for him to make obvious mistakes. Moreover, he doesn't care about winning or losing at all. He makes moves very quickly. No matter how the game goes, the scene looks very imposing.

This aggressive aura made the Western Emperor very uncomfortable. If he took too long to think, he would immediately be despised.

But if you don't calculate carefully, how can it be easy to defeat a powerful person?
Xihuang felt that playing chess like this was not only a waste of brain cells, but also very uncomfortable. The opponent was blocking too tightly, so he had to make more calculations if he wanted to make a move. Unfortunately, he didn't have that much time. In short, it was very uncomfortable.

Zhang Haoran, on the other hand, looked very relaxed. He was just relaxing and would rush to wherever there was danger. He didn't care about winning or losing anyway.

The chess game continued, and the Western Emperor's expression became more and more solemn, and he spent longer and longer thinking.

Zhang Haoran, on the other hand, was more relaxed. As he relaxed for a while, his condition got better and better.

Of course, the chess game remained the same. He played more than ten games in a row and never won a single one. It was impossible for him to win with the way he played.

However, the more he watched, the stronger his blocking skills became. By the last game, the two of them had spread their chess pieces over most of the board, with each of them placing thousands of pieces.

With such a huge amount of calculation, even though Xihuang is an emperor and is proficient in this field, he is still a little overwhelmed at this time. The main reason is the time limit. He must make a move within ten breaths, otherwise he will lose.

Moreover, Zhang Haoran won one game after another, not giving his opponent any time to rest. This can be considered a fatigue tactic.

While clearing the chessboard, Xi Huang said with a smile, "You've played more than ten games in a row. Do you want to take a break and digest the experience you've gained?

This emperor has some top-quality tea here, which was brought by the previous challenger. It is said to be from the Emperor Mie Tian in this small world.

This kind of spiritual tea can purify the warrior's spiritual power.

I see that my friend's energy and blood are surging, and his spirits are high. He should be on the verge of a breakthrough. Drinking a cup now will increase your chances of a breakthrough."

Xihuang couldn't stand it anymore. After all, he couldn't lose a single game. He needed to keep calculating within a limited time, which was really tiring.

He wanted to take a break, but couldn't say it directly, so he took out the spiritual tea to tempt her.

Of course, Zhang Haoran had heard of the spiritual tea in the level of destroying the Emperor of Heaven, and he had originally planned to drink a few more cups when he reached that level.

Yes, he just wanted to have a few more drinks and didn't think about robbing. After all, Yao Chengjun was the reincarnation of Emperor Mie Tian, ​​so he had to give him some face.

If they really want to rob it, it should be Fang Ping and Lao Yao who do it.

I didn’t expect that Xihuang also has this kind of tea, and this old guy took it out without any regret. It seems that he must have quite a lot of stock.

As for the other party saying that it was brought by a customs clearance expert, he would never believe it even if he was beaten to death. Who would give away such a good thing as a projector?
He quickly figured out what was going on.

The projection of Emperor Mie Tian is also very special. It can control the rules of this small world to a certain extent. Maybe he can visit and stroll around at will.

Looking at the chessboard in front of me again, everything became clear.

It must be that Emperor Mie Tian was bored and came to play chess with Emperor Xi, but ended up losing a lot of spiritual tea. No wonder the spiritual power of this projection is so pure.

But this is not bad either, it’s a good deal for me now.

Looking at the sweat on Xi Huang's forehead, he knew that he couldn't go too far.

Zhang Haoran said he was playing chess, but in fact he was just relaxing, which did not consume much of his mind at all. However, Xi Huang had to calculate the moves in the shortest time possible, which consumed a lot of energy, so he took out this good tea and wanted to buy some rest time.

In fact, the way he played chess made the Western Emperor consume a lot of energy and feel frustrated, and he didn't feel much sense of accomplishment even if he won. It was simply a torture!
The reason why such an extreme situation occurred, a novice, but broke the mentality of the veteran! It was because Zhang Haoran could afford to lose, but Xihuang could not.

He smiled knowingly and said, "Haha! Okay then! Let's have some tea and rest for a while.

Playing chess with my senior has taught me a lot, and I will definitely be able to hold my own against you for a while longer next time."

The corner of Xi Huang's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, with your unmotivated attitude, what can you learn?
You have to hold on a little longer. Are you afraid that you'll tire me to death?

"Huh? Could this be their tactic? They want to take advantage of me when I'm tired, and then they can sneak in. This is indeed a good idea.

However, you underestimate me too much. I have studied this way for tens of thousands of years. How could a junior like you take advantage of me? "

Emperor Xi was really tired, so he moved the chessboard away and took out an exquisite teapot.

But just when he took out the tea leaves and prepared to make water.

The two of them turned their heads and looked towards the east side of the chess room, with golden light flashing in their eyes, as if they could see through the wall to see what was happening outside.

Because they all sensed a very special energy fluctuation. That energy fluctuation was not the fluctuation produced when a warrior's qi and blood burst out. It seemed like a large number of laws were rapidly gathering.

"Xu Men!"

Xi Huang said seriously, "Judging from the intensity of the energy fluctuations, this should be the third Void Gate. Are all warriors nowadays so abnormal?

Did you come here to challenge the level only after your cultivation reached the critical point?"

Of course Zhang Haoran could sense that it was a virtual door, and it was the third virtual door!

After all, his Xumen appeared back and forth several times, but failed to successfully descend.
He was too familiar with this smell.

This is definitely the fluctuation caused by Xumen absorbing energy.

The Western Emperor gave Zhang Haoran a meaningful look and asked doubtfully, "Why don't you break through in the outside world, but have to come to this small world?
Breaking through here is very dangerous."

When he saw the young man opposite him, Emperor Xi knew that this was not a coincidence.

They all cultivated to the peak of the eighth level before entering this small world.

Although there are many opportunities here that can allow warriors to advance by leaps and bounds, it is not such a coincidence.

The person in front of him is in a state where he can break through at any time, and there is another person who is also breaking through. He definitely won't believe that there is no problem here.

You know, the laws of this small world are not as perfect as those of the Three Realms. The Void Gate can absorb more power from the laws, making it much more difficult to break through.
