Chapter 343: The Remaining Power
"Rui Zhao...actually lost?!"

At the same time, China.

Liu Yuhong still couldn't believe the result when he saw it.

"We had such a huge lead going into the official game, but... we lost?"

"That's the truth!"

Wang Haocheng, who was also in the voice chat, sighed and said:

"As a balanced chess player, Xia Chuan has an advantage in facing this kind of complicated endgame situation...

"What's more, this kind of official move requires floating pieces on the board. Yu Hong, you should know how complicated it is."

"That's... that's what I mean..."

Liu Yuhong pondered and said:

"But after all, Rui Zhao just played such a game the day before yesterday, but today he ended up playing it at the end... It always feels unreal..."

"This girl, I guess she's just very focused..."

Wang Haocheng said seriously:

“In fact, if you look at her usual attacking situations, she basically doesn’t give the opponent any chances.

"But the difference is that she is really proficient in attacking and killing. So when she chases people and kills them all over the board, others are somewhat helpless. But when they really have to fight with others for the endgame, the difference in skills is finally exposed."

Liu Yuhong thought about it and said:
"If you put it that way...

"It feels like this is the first time I've seen her make such a complicated endgame in a match!"

"On weekdays, she almost always wins the game in the middle game, and even if there are occasional endgame moves, they are never that complicated... Hmm..."

Wang Haocheng suddenly stopped talking here, which made Liu Yuhong feel a little strange.

"Sister Wang?"

"...Yu Hong, your team members should have formed a group this time, right?
"Go to the group and send a message to comfort Rui Zhao!"

"what?"

Liu Yuhong's tone was full of doubt.

"Salute first, then soldiers."

Wang Haocheng said briefly:

"It was Xia Chuan who defeated Rui Zhao with great effort today, but in two days... it will be our turn!
"After you comfort her, come back quickly, and we will study Rui Zhao's chess game right away!

“Looking back after this game, I feel it was very targeted.

"Xia Chuan dared to provoke a chaotic battle with Rui Zhao from the very beginning in the middle game. I guess he was planning to force Rui Zhao into a complicated closing stage at that time."

"hiss……

"So... it really looks like her! Otherwise, some of her previous combat strategies are totally inexplicable."

Liu Yuhong quickly agreed:

"Okay! I'll go and comfort her on behalf of our group - it can be considered as fulfilling the duty of a teammate in the competition!"

After saying this, Liu Yuhong fell silent for a moment, probably because he had already started to think of the wording.

Wang Haocheng took the opportunity to cue the little witch who remained silent during the live broadcast:

"Jingjing!
"Looking at it this way... you are definitely better!"

"……what?"

The little witch was confused when she was suddenly called out.

Wang Haocheng explained in a relaxed tone:

"Look! Jingjing, you defeated Xia Chuan in the quarterfinals of the Wu Yue Cup a few months ago! And this Rui Zhao still can't beat him today!

"Doesn't this mean that she is not as good as you?

"Those people out there keep talking about 'the future number one female champion', but they don't understand chess at all!"

"what……"

Yang Manjing's tone of voice seemed a little subtle. He paused for two seconds before raising his voice deliberately:

"Yes, yes, Sister Wang!
"This time in the league! I, I will definitely beat her!"

"Well, Yu Hong and I both believe in you!"

After encouraging the young players in the team again, Wang Haocheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The child is growing up... and becoming more and more difficult to comfort!

Jingjing should have also noticed that Xia Chuan's competitive state in this game was obviously much stronger than that in the Wu Yue Cup...

We still have to find a way to encourage her!

With this in mind, Wang Haocheng, seeing that the game was over, immediately planned to turn off the live broadcast and prepare to analyze and review Xia Chuan's entire strategy of this game in detail with his two teammates.

However, before the live broadcast was closed, Wang Haocheng's movements when he saw the screen paused for a moment.

"Well……

"Does defeating Rui Zhao make Xia Chuan so happy?
“She wasn’t like this back then…

"My winning streak back then was one more than Rui Zhao's..."

...

...

"Aoi, congratulations!

At the same time, at the Dongying Chess Institute, Shindo Hiroaki was looking at his old friend who had just finished an interview on the screen, and he was in a very good mood at the moment:

“But…I wasn’t that excited when you ended Wang Haocheng’s eight-game winning streak!

"I remember when you beat Wang Haocheng, you acted like a little adult, pretending to be calm as hell.

"So today you are so crazy!
"When she won the game, I almost thought our female Honinbo had lost her mind!"

"It's not that exaggerated!"

Faced with the little joke from his old friend, Xia Chuan Aoi in the live broadcast was a little embarrassed, and then he explained in detail:

“Actually… the situation is a little different!
"When I won against Wang Haocheng... I was happy, but because she was not that scary, I didn't have such strong emotions after winning."

"Oh? So what you mean is... Rui Zhao, this beauty in the second stage, is very scary?"

Shindo Hiroaki's tone at this time was still very relaxed, and his original intention was actually to tease his old friend and further liven up the atmosphere.

But who would have thought that the female Honinbo who heard this sighed deeply, with a helpless look on her face:

“…Isn’t it?

“When Wang Haocheng won consecutive matches, I felt that it was mainly because she was in better condition. As long as I could perform better, it would not be that difficult to beat her.

“But this time when facing Rui Zhao, I really felt unprecedented pressure—the talent and characteristics displayed by this little girl are really too scary.

"Honestly, even when I made a mistake in my move and she seized the opportunity, I felt like I couldn't win!

"If you hadn't prepared so much information in advance to help me stay calm, I would have collapsed..."

Shindo immediately comforted him: "That's not the case! If you hadn't listened to our advice, you wouldn't have done this..."

"… and then she killed him without making any mistakes, just like she did with Ying Haruna the day before yesterday."

The straightforward Natsukawa Aoi interrupted the other party's polite words:

"Shinto, why are you being so polite to me? Don't I know the situation of my game?
"No more words! I plan to give Li-chan the good news, so that she can continue to practice chess diligently and become an excellent chess player who can defeat this Queen Zhaotian head-on.

"After all, the next time I see Rui Zhao...

"I guess... I can't beat her, right?"

...

...

Meanwhile, at Buju Nongshim Hotel.

Rui Zhao, who had just finished the interview, immediately saw the vice chairman of the Chess Association, Lu Wenjie, who was waiting for her.

She immediately trotted over and bowed slightly to apologize without saying a word.

“…Vice Chairman Lu, I’m sorry.

"This game of chess... was not won."

At this time, Rui Zhao had just finished the game and looked somewhat tired.

And his expression, which had been as cold as ice and snow throughout the game, finally seemed to have a sense of loss.

Lu Wenjie hurriedly stopped him:
"Rui Zhao, what kind of apology are you making?
"You have won seven consecutive games this time, and you have beaten South Korea and Japan so badly that only their main players are left. You are undoubtedly our great hero!"

However, Rui Zhao did not seem to be comforted at all. He just lowered his eyes and whispered:

"But I didn't play well in the second half of this game...

"I feel like my advantage is getting smaller and smaller as I keep pulling back, and I don't have any good ideas.

"I feel like I must have made a lot of small mistakes, but I don't know exactly where I made them..."

Hearing Rui Zhao's slightly apologetic tone, Lu Wenjie was just thinking about saying a few more words of comfort, but who would have thought that there was another half sentence following it:
"…In the end, we lost by half a point, what a pity!

“In fact, I have been thinking whether I should use the ‘flow’ a little deeper, so that I can maintain the advantage until the end!

"But after all, Chairman Shang has previously told me that we must control the usage, and I'm a little worried about making him angry..."

"No, no, no, no, no!"

Hearing this, Lu Wenjie was so frightened that he quickly interrupted the other party.

Although he didn't know much about "flow", he heard Shang Chaotian roughly describe the whole incident when Rui Zhao was sent to the hospital after a hard fight in the Wu Yue Cup last time, so he knew the general situation.

"Rui Zhao! If you lose the game, you lose. Your health is the most important thing! Do you understand?
"You've been playing chess for five days straight, and you've been talking about chess and practicing non-stop. You're exhausted!

"If anything happens, how am I going to explain to your parents and Chairman Shang?
"Just be a good boy and do what Chairman Shang tells you to do. Do you hear me?"

Seeing Lu Wenjie's words, Rui Zhao nodded and said:
“I, I understand!
"Don't worry, I won't do anything wrong next time!"

Well……

Although this girl often has some views that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, she is generally a good girl.

...Except that sometimes I need to smash a teacup to remind myself.

Seeing Rui Zhao's affirmation, Lu Wenjie immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to continue to persuade her, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps.

I saw a young figure running up to the two of them, breathing rapidly, but for some reason he didn't speak to them right away.

"Ah! Lei Qi Jiudan!"

Rui Zhao let out a small cry of surprise when he saw who was coming. Then, as if he remembered something, he said awkwardly:
“Ah, that…

"We clearly agreed that we would explain your match with Liu Jiudan after you win this game...

"I'm sorry, I spoke out of turn..."
