Chapter 373 If I Can't Even Win Against You
"Ouch! Xiaoguang didn't make the right move!
"It looks like he's going to follow in Sister Xia Chuan's footsteps this morning!"

February 2, 19: p.m.

Dajing City, Longxiang Shengjing Villa Community.

Lin Ruixin, who was live streaming the Nongshim Cup at home, gave his own judgment directly after seeing the latest move on the virtual board.

What Chess Master Lin is broadcasting live today is naturally the first game of the third stage of the Nongshim Cup.

Although no local players took the stage, the two main players from Japan and South Korea are both quite popular in their own countries, and they are always more popular than those little brats who broadcast the Rookie King Contest.

For this game, Shindo Hiroaki prepared a large set pattern, into which he also added some of his own variations. Until the 60th move, the two were evenly matched, and they successfully led the situation into a chaotic mid-game battle where it was generally recognized that Young Master Liu was relatively prone to failure.

But as the situation entered the middle stage, the gap between the Japanese throne and the world's number one was quickly exposed.

Although Shindo Hiroaki did not make any obviously bad moves, the difference in the quality of his moves still allowed Liu Shixian to gradually widen the gap in goals and winning rate.

As of the 102nd move, Black's winning rate has exceeded 90%. At the same time, the whole game is solid and Shindo Hiroaki has basically no chance.

Considering that at the Lakeside Cup this morning, the Japanese women's Honinbo was the first to leave the field due to the sudden power of the Ice Queen in the middle game, it is almost certain that the Japanese team will be the first to be eliminated in this challenge tournament with the two bottom scores. The great chess master Lin did not hesitate to sentence the Japanese main player to death.

After assessing the situation on the board, Lin Ruixin naturally started talking about things outside the board.

As a popular anchor, he naturally knows that there are very few of his fans who truly understand chess, or that the vast majority of his fans do not come to watch him talk about chess.

The best strategy is to use the guise of "explaining and promoting Go" to deal with the questions from the old guys in the association, but in fact, to talk more about content that can attract attention.

"Although... losing the game was expected! But I feel sorry for Xiaoguang.

"I've heard that the number of Go players in Japan has been declining significantly in recent years, but Xiao Lei showed no mercy. I took it out on these Japanese who are just playing Go because I didn't win the Go Saint Tournament. As a result, they only beat Lao Zhao from South Korea in the Nongshim Cup this time. They are so embarrassed!
"But... it's also thanks to Empress Zhaotian for her help! She gave warmth to the 31-year-old Sister Xiachuan, which can be regarded as saving face for Japan.

"Next time I meet the chairman of the Dongying Go Institute, I will think of a way to get a Japanese silk banner for the queen to commend her contribution to the friendship between Chinese and Japanese Go!"

However, despite the great chess master Lin's sarcasm and jokes in a light-hearted manner, he actually did not have a very happy year.

As for the reasons... there are actually a lot of them.

First of all, at the Mengli Lily Cup, Liu Shixian won the championship, tying the total number of world championships with Chess Master Lin, and it is very likely that the overtaking will happen this year!
It is certainly not a happy thing to see that a junior who was once beaten or even ridiculed by you might become your superior.

——Especially when the opponent defeated him very cleanly in the quarterfinals.

Next, in the last round of the Weiqi League before the New Year, the Dajing team defeated the Tiangang team with a score of 3 to 1, entering the upper half and pulling the Tiangang team out of the top two.

In the game between the two main generals with a lot of grudges, Lei Qi performed extremely calmly. Facing various harassments and disruptions from Lin Ruixin on the plate, he responded in the most appropriate way, successfully defeated his opponent, and made the first contribution to the team's entry into the top eight.

In fact, this alone would be fine - Lin Ruixin is quite open-minded about this "non-critical situation".

But the key point is: in the previous three consecutive Nongshim Cups, the Chinese team led by Lin Ruixin was finally cleared by Master Xiao Liu alone, allowing them to set the second longest record in history of ten consecutive wins across sessions.

As a result, when he was not there this time, Lei Qi was indomitable in the Nongshim Cup. He successfully turned the tables several times under unfavorable circumstances and launched a seven-game winning streak that tied the historical record, almost helping Hua Xia secure the Nongshim Cup championship!
This means that "winning the game of chess is not scary, but it will be embarrassing if someone is missing"!

The combination of the above two events is likely to cause the domestic chess circle to once again start the discussion on "who is the best in the country". This is undoubtedly something that Lin Da, the internet celebrity who has finally defended the title of "Chess Saint", is very reluctant to see.

What worries Lin Ruixin even more is... the continuous growth of a certain girl.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruixin secretly glanced at his mobile phone out of the corner of his eye.

I saw that the chess game on my phone, which was almost decided when I peeked at it last time, had now ended.

The final result of [Rui Zhao 5th Dan - wins - Fu Hengchu 4th Dan] was clearly displayed on the live broadcast page.

Alas, this kid Fu Hengchu is still no good!
Lin Ruixin couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If he had said half a year ago, he would not have dared to accept Rui Zhao's challenge first because he was tired and short on time.

From then till today, the great chess master Lin would never dare to confront Rui Zhao head-on with his flying knife while giving him the first move.

In his opinion, Rui Zhao's strength is probably close to Shuangbi's now. If he lets them play first, he can only say that they are suppressing him, not that they will definitely win!

And if we add a top-notch flying knife forged by the famous Tian Yuan...

The only one who dares to say he can continue watching is probably the world's number one chess player who is playing on the screen!

But if Rui Zhao really takes down the Rookie King, then the great chess master Lin will have no excuses and there will be only two possible outcomes.

One is to avoid the fight directly, and then be called a coward by the opponent's fans and the onlookers, and then lose face...

The second is to face the enemy head-on, and then be stabbed to death with a flying knife, which is also humiliating...

Well……

Now we can only hope that Xiao Chu can hold on! Lin Ruixin said to himself.

But before he could finish his prayer, he saw a barrage of privileges suddenly flash across the live broadcast room, which was particularly dazzling:
[Xinbao! Something terrible has happened! Go check on Xiaochu next door!]

[He is very anxious when playing Little Witch, and there is a possibility of failure! ]

"……What?!"

Upon seeing this news, the chess master Lin, who had seemed calm and humorous, suddenly opened his mouth wide.

...

...

“I give up…

"You are indeed... quite amazing."

On the same day, at 6:20 pm, Dongjiang Chess Academy.

With Yang Manjing resigning to defeat, an extremely fierce game in the quarterfinals of this year's China Go Rookie King Tournament finally came to an end.

Chu Jun, the champion of the last Rookie King Contest, defeated Yang Manjing after a hard fight and made it into the semi-finals with difficulty.

The middle game of this chess game was extremely tense, with the black and white sides having a total of five chess pieces in a mess, and the chess pieces changed several times in the middle.

Both players made mistakes during the game, and the winning rate curve given by the AI ​​was like a roller coaster, jumping up and down for a long time, which was really annoying.

In the end, when the waves dissipated and the situation only remained for a small official move of one point, the result of White winning by about two points was already a foregone conclusion. The little witch, who played black, finally gave up and simply admitted defeat.

call……

Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly let out a long sigh of relief.

However, when he heard his opponent's words after surviving the disaster, he felt relieved but also had a strange feeling.

Eh……?
Yang Manjing...she was actually praising me for my good play?

According to her personality, even if she doesn't cry now, shouldn't she say angrily "If I hadn't been careless and made a mistake, I would have won a long time ago"?

For a moment, Chu Jun was a little confused.

However, out of courtesy, the boy with glasses quickly responded appropriately:

"Well... you've improved a lot recently! I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat!"

“Nothing goes wrong... … ”

The little witch shook her head and murmured something in response, then she began to put away her chess pieces.

Chu Jun hurried over to lend a hand, and at the same time asked a little stiffly:
"Uh, do you...want to beat me that badly?"

To be honest, Chu Jun could understand the feelings of the girl opposite him.

After all, she has always regarded Liu Yuhong as her idol, so Yang Manjing has always been obsessed with "winning the Best Newcomer title like Sister Yuhong."

"...It's okay, you're still young, and women can sign up before they're 20 years old.

"I won't be able to participate in the Rookie of the Year competition next year. It won't be too late for you to fight for the championship then!"

The boy with glasses felt that his words of comfort were comprehensive and impeccable.

However, after hearing what Chu Jun said, the little witch's expression was obviously a little strange.

She stared at Chu Jun for two seconds, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

But in the end, Yang Manjing seemed to swallow what he wanted to say, and reorganized his words, trying to answer in a calm tone:

"Actually... I don't really want to win you right now.

"But if I can't even beat you...

"Then I won't even think about defeating that Sister Rui."
