After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

"Zhan Lang, number eight."

After Zhan Lang drew the lot, he showed his face for a moment, listened to the staff next to him announce the result of the draw, nodded, and went downstairs.

The draw ceremony for the Fujitsu Cup is currently underway, and of course there will be some routine speeches by leaders before that.

Zhan Lang himself didn't quite understand, so naturally he just stopped listening.

However, the contestants were not allowed to speak this time. Perhaps the Japanese side was afraid that Zhan Lang, this rebellious guy, would say something outrageous again.

Especially if Zhan Lang cannot be arrested by then, it would be like being slapped in the face twice.

So the best way, of course, is to just turn off the microphone. I will just not let you speak and that’s it.

After all, if we really lose, we will just pretend nothing happened. If we win, we can brag about it no matter whether you said anything or not.

At the Fujitsu Cup draw ceremony, the first group to draw lots were seven Japanese players, because the principle of same-country avoidance was adopted. In theory, it was to try to avoid people from the same country from meeting each other.

This is of course beneficial. After all, it is a world competition and people naturally don’t want to see competitions between players from the same country. Instead, they want to see competitions between players from different countries.

Of course, if the remaining ones are all from the same country, then there is nothing we can do.

Furthermore, the Japanese side is much more top-notch after all, and there are also a lot of people participating in the competition. The Japanese side must be worried that if they are unlucky and all the people drawn are human numbers, they will be taken advantage of by others.

So no matter what, the principle of avoidance of the same country is still a rule recognized by all countries in the world competitions.

The Chinese contestants were the second batch to draw lots. After comparing with the previous Japanese draw, Zhan Lang knew who his opponent was after the draw.

In fact, they can be considered old rivals, or you can say that Japan's top-notch players are basically Zhan Lang's old rivals. After all, in two ring matches, Zhan Lang has beaten all of them except the foreign top-notch players, and they are now as familiar as can be.

Zhan Lang's opponent in the first round is Masao Toya, 9th dan, from Japan, who is also the Japanese champion of the 3rd China-Japan Go Challenge.

To some extent, this may be an advance rehearsal for the final of the 3rd China-Japan Go Challenge Tournament.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Toya Masao 9th dan can defeat Fang Yuan 9th dan, because Fang Yuan defeated Japan's deputy general Mitsuha Kenichi 9th dan in advance. Now there are still two people from the Chinese side alive in the ring match, but there is only one person from the Japanese side alive!

Masao Toya, the ninth dan, must first defeat Fang Yuan before he can meet the final champion of the Chinese team, Zhan Lang.

When 9th Dan Toya Masao learned about this, he was even a little dazed, because the form of the third session was even worse than the previous two sessions.

Although they lost the first two sessions, at least the strength of Japanese Go was demonstrated.

But this time, we didn't see the strength of Japanese Go at all, and many people even felt that the levels of the two countries seemed to be almost the same, or even equal.

This is like adding fuel to the fire for the Go community, which has already lost to Japan twice.

If we can't win this time, it doesn't really matter. After all, everyone has already vented their anger in the previous two sessions, and they probably won't do anything more extreme if they lose again.

After all, after losing too much, everyone will gradually become numb.

"Toya Masao is really unlucky. He met you in the first round."

Fang Yuan looked at Zhan Lang after he came down and couldn't help but shook his head and said something. In his opinion, drawing Zhan Lang basically meant being eliminated.

No one knows how Japan has the courage to host a world championship. We in China host it because we can make Zhanlang the best in the world.

Do you Japanese also intend to make us Chinese the best in the world? That would be truly international!

Don’t ask why he is so confident, Fang Yuan will only tell you that you have never seen the real Zhan Lang.

Once you have seen it, you will no longer have any extravagant desires or other thoughts.

You will only understand a little.

God is invincible!

Fang Yuan once thought that Zhan Lang was a mist hovering on the ground. Although it was dangerous, it was not fatal. One day, he would be able to wield a sword to disperse this mist and let everyone know that my sword is not necessarily harmful!
Until one day, the fog suddenly dissipated towards me. When I walked in to find out what was going on, I found out that the fog was just a disguise.

Behind the fog is a bottomless abyss, a darkness that swallows everything! It is so despairing! The seemingly dangerous fog is simply his disguise!

He deceived everyone in the world!
Everybody was deceived by him!

Zhan Lang heard this and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will destroy the confidence of Toya Masao in this round and help you clear the obstacles in the ring match." "What's wrong? You don't want to pretend anymore? Do you want the world to see your true face?"

"That's not the case. I just worked out some new moves and wanted to try them out in the World Series. I think Japan's usual practice will give me this opportunity."

Zhan Lang shook his head. He knew of course that the real identity Fang Yuan was talking about was Jueyi. Some time ago, in order to help Fang Yuan establish a higher psychological shadow, Zhan Lang opened Jueyi to practice two games with him, which directly made him collapse.

Of course Fang Yuan wouldn't think of any messy systems or anything like that. He simply thought that Zhan Lang didn't use his full strength during normal competitions, and was even playing with everyone just to have fun.

It's simply an old man teasing a naughty boy!
After all, when you reach this level, you are indeed qualified to treat everyone like a child.

What kind of challenge match was won by Zhan Lang only by a narrow margin? Although he defeated Japan, he did not widen the gap between himself and the Japanese chess players.

fart!

It's bullshit!

I’ve seen all that crap top-notch stuff before, but I’ve never experienced that feeling of despair!
The kind where you just can't win if you play against him normally, the more you resist, the more miserable your death will be, and if you dare to move you will be killed instantly. Fang Yuan had only experienced that feeling when he was just starting to learn Go and facing his professional teacher.

On that day, Fang Yuan once again recalled the fear.

In the face of that deep fear, the so-called top-notch inner demons are not worth mentioning at all.

What is top-notch?
There is only one super player in the world of Go!
The next day, Fang Yuan no longer took Mitsuha Kenichi seriously, because he had already seen another level.

Mitsuba Kenichi, you simply cannot understand me now! My perspective is different from yours!

Kenichi Mitsuba, you are the challenger!
Fang Yuan now faces Toya Masao 9th Dan with the same mentality: Have you ever seen the real world? If you haven't seen it, don't think you can beat me.

Kenichi Mitsuba, you are the challenger!
Watching Fang Yuan going on stage to draw lots, Wu Yuanmin also felt confused. He didn't know what was going on. Fang Yuan suddenly became China's number one trumpeter during this period of time.

When everyone was praising Zhan Lang crazily after the competition, Fang Yuan asked everyone to calm down. Although Zhan Lang was strong, he was not far behind other top-notch players and their levels were still similar.

Everyone should look at the problem rationally and not get too excited. Putting too much pressure on Zhan Lang will only affect his future performance.

However, when everyone was very happy after Fang Yuan defeated the top-notch player in the ring, Fang Yuan said that there was nothing to be happy about and the ring match was just a toy for Zhan Lang.

You can just play randomly from now on, because Zhan Lang is backing you up anyway. Even if all the Japanese Go players join forces, it is impossible for them to beat him.

What a top-notch Japanese product, in fact it is only worthy of carrying shoes for Zhan Lang.

Wu Yuanmin really found it hard to understand. After all, if Fang Yuan's tough talk could be convinced by Zhan Lang, he would have been convinced long ago. How could he suddenly become soft-hearted?

And this was when Fang Yuan had finally broken through his own limits and defeated Japan's top-notch players.

This is not the time to brag. China is not the only country that can defeat the top-notch teams. I can do it too!

This year I will compete with Zhan Lang again for the number one player in China. Can I fight for another ten years?

After all, they are the only two people in China who have achieved such an achievement, so Fang Yuan, the big mouth, can definitely brag about it again.

Wu Yuanmin felt that there must be something going on between the two people, but he didn't know what had happened that could have caused Fang Yuan's attitude to suddenly change 180 degrees.

The draw was over very quickly. Fang Yuan had a better lot, as he was playing against a player from the Kansai Ki-in Academy.

After all, these two are the weakest on the Japanese side.

However, Wu Yuanmin and Lu Hao's luck was not very good. One was facing Sanye Kenichi, and the other was facing the top-notch Korean Zhao Chikun 9th Dan. It can be said that their hopes of advancing were slim.

Not many people paid attention to the draw on the Korean side, but on the Japanese side, everyone started talking about something surrounding the 9th dan player Masao Toya, after all, his opponent tomorrow is everyone's main target.

This time, both sides had three hours to complete the match, and the match was completed in one go without any long breaks in between, and the world champion was decided directly.

It can be said that this is a great test of both physical strength and endurance.

But no matter what, the first world championship in the history of human Go has begun.

Countless chess fans are waiting in front of the TV to see who will be the world champion.
