[Numb! Completely numb! ]

[Is this the nth time that Empress Zhaotian has made big news? 】

[No more women's competitions in the future? 】

[She hasn’t even become the top female player yet, has she not won the Women’s World Championship yet? Does she think she has already passed the test?! ]

[The Queen said: My ID in China is already silver-plated, who would want gold powder? ]

[Damn, if that's the case, didn't the Ice Queen still compete in the women's competition after she won the world runner-up?]

[You really won the game of fast chess against Master Liu. You are starting to get cocky, right? ]

[Not only has there been no women's world champion so far, there has even been only one women's world runner-up, whose performance in the women's world championship is not as good as that of the little witch.]

「Well, I can’t say that...」

[They both lost to the Ice Queen in the last three women's world championships. Their results essentially depend on when they draw the Ice Queen.]

[But no matter what, Rui Zhao is far from being unbeatable in the women's competition, and the Ice Queen is still a hurdle for her. ]

[It’s okay that she didn’t participate in some domestic competitions before, but now she even disdains the Women’s World Championships? ]

[Uh, I can't stand up to the Queen of Heaven in this matter. It's not good to be too ambitious. ]

[Ah, I also think Xiao Zhao is a bit too extreme, right? ]

[Originally I said that by the time the fan-air battle and Mulan match came around, Xiao Zhao should have reached level 8 in one go…]

[As a result, she didn't even participate in the women's competition? ]

[How long do I have to wait for this Queen to be promoted to level 8! ]

【Uh, calm down upstairs. 】

[In fact, the Queen’s current strength is obviously more than the level of the seventh dan. Even if she slowly declines in the unlimited competition, it is estimated that it will be a matter of time before she reaches the eighth dan.]

[Besides, didn’t everyone speculate earlier that the reason why Queen Zhaotian announced her withdrawal from the three domestic women’s competitions before the Spring Festival was that she wanted to try out the unlimited competition to earn traffic money? ]

[Now that he has defeated Liu Shixian and made such a big splash, attracting a lot of central media to report on it, it is understandable that he is a little complacent. ]

[But she is taking herself too seriously by not participating in the women's competition! Neither Mr. Wu nor Jin Youen has ever behaved in such an outrageous way!]

[The level of cruelty in the unlimited competition is far beyond the imagination of the female chess player. I think she will be beaten to tears by the male chess players, and finally she will be dejected and secretly return to play the women's competition.]

【Report——News came from Weibo! 】

[Nie Yunyi, who won the second place in the Best Newcomer Award this time, has already started to mock on Weibo! ]

[Although the post only had four words, "The hen crows at dawn", it was obvious who he was referring to.]

[Well, even though I thought Nie Yunyi had a foul mouth before, he was right this time! ]

[The country trained you to win the championship! Finally, you finally see the hope of ending the Ice Queen's reign, but you compete in unlimited competitions just to get traffic. What kind of responsibility is this! ]

[You can't just rely on the little witch, a dwarf, to defeat the Ice Queen, right?! ]

...? !

What do you mean by relying on this little witch?

My height has increased by one centimeter in the past year or so!

And I have made it to the finals of the Wuyue Cup for two consecutive times! If I improve a little more, how can I not have a chance to beat that Jin Youen!
February 2th, 15 p.m., Jinling Xuanwu Hotel.

Yang Manjing, who was squatting in the hotel corridor arresting someone, was almost defeated by the discussion content on the Yiguo Forum. He almost fell into his old ways and switched to a small account to go online and quarrel with chess fans.

However, the little witch, who had matured a lot over the past year, finally swallowed her anger.

Oh, no, no!
I’m here to see Coach Jie today, so don’t delay things!
Today she came to Jinling specially to meet with the coach of the Su Hu men's team, Xie Hao, 7th dan, to discuss the matter of joining the Chinese Go League next season.

Earlier, the little witch had asked Liu Yuhong to ask Coach Xie of the men's team if she had a chance to be included in the roster of the Su Hu men's team. However, Xie Hao had not given a positive answer, which made the little witch, who had already won the Rookie of the Year award, somewhat anxious.

Originally, Yang Manjing was still able to keep his composure.

But when Rui Zhao officially announced this morning that she would no longer participate in the women's competition, the little witch was shocked and could no longer wait.

She naturally understood that given the temperament of "Sister Rui", there could only be one reason why she stopped hosting women's competitions - that is, she felt there was no need to host women's competitions anymore.

She has already started to move on to the next stage.

On the other hand, he himself hadn't even made it to the men's Weiqi League! This made Yang Manjing very anxious, so he immediately took the high-speed train from his home in Zhenze to Jinling to stop by the coach and find out what was going on.

Now looking at the time again, Yang Manjing knew that the Weiqi League playoffs between Yuzhou team and Suhu team had already begun.

At this moment, Coach Jie may come out of the game room at any time and go to the live broadcast room or lounge.

After waiting for a while, as expected, the coach of the Su Hu men's team, Xie Hao, appeared in the corridor.

"Um, Coach Jie!"

Seeing Jie Hao walking out of the chess room, the little witch hurried out and ran to him.

"Jingjing?"

Seeing the members of the women's team suddenly appear here, Xie Hao was obviously a little surprised:

"Why are you here today? You don't have any commentary work today?"

"Ah, that's certainly not the case!"

Yang Manjing showed a social smile and said:

"Well, I came to Jinling to play today, so it's a good opportunity to come and take a look and feel the atmosphere of the Weiqi League!

"To be honest, I've always wanted to find an opportunity to play in the Weiqi League! Hehe..."

"Oh, so that's what you're talking about..."

Xie Hao was also an intelligent man. After hearing this, he immediately understood the little witch's intention.

But he frowned slightly, and it was obvious that he was reluctant to give a direct answer to this question.

But after struggling for a while, Xie Hao seemed to think that it was not a good idea to keep answering this question perfunctorily, so he said honestly: "Jingjing, since you value this matter so much, I will also tell you the truth! But don't say that I told you.

“As for you, although your strength has improved rapidly recently, neither the boss nor I feel that it is appropriate to put you in the men’s team.

"The reason why I didn't give a direct answer before was simply because I wanted to complete your contract renewal negotiations first to avoid the same problem as Rui Zhao last year.

"After all, Rui Zhao has announced that he will not participate in the Women's Weiqi League this year. So as long as we ensure that you and Yu Hong are on the team, we have a great chance of regaining the Women's Weiqi League championship..."

The little witch was actually somewhat prepared for this answer. But when she really heard Jie Hao's statement, she couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in her heart:
"Why, Coach Jie!
"Recently, I have won the Rookie of the Year award! And I also won two Women's World Championships!

"I'm not even eighteen yet! I think if I'm given a chance, I will definitely become a very good chess player very soon!"

However, Coach Xie shook his head and said:

"Jingjing, you also know that our boss has always hoped that the men's team will achieve good results.

“If you have to select a rookie with weaker ability, he must have enough potential.

"There is no precedent for a female chess player to become the world's top ten chess player..."

"But, but!"

Yang Manjing tried to argue:

"Didn't Rui Zhao beat Liu Shixian in the Nongshim Cup?"

"The Ice Queen even won the world runner-up title a long time ago! Isn't that more convincing than Rui Zhao winning a game of chess?"

Xie Hao retorted:
“But everyone knows that these are short-lived!
"The upper limit of female chess players is here. Only Ms. Wu was considered to be in the top 20 in the world, and the rest are not that good.

"Even Jin Youen and that Queen Zhao Tian would have to be ranked around the 40th or 50th place in the world!
"With this upper limit, only teams like Pohu that can't get good players would be willing to give it a try. Our team is not that bad."

At this point, the matter couldn't be clearer.

Yang Manjing pursed her lips, smiled helplessly and gave way:

"I see. Thank you for telling me this. I'm sorry for taking up your time!"

"Well, Jingjing, don't be discouraged. It's normal for female chess players to not be able to play unlimited games.

"The Queen Zhaotian will not participate in the women's competition for the time being. You have great potential in the women's competition!

"I estimate that the bonus you can get will be much larger than last year, which is a good thing!"

After saying this, Xie Hao patted the little witch on the shoulder and left immediately, leaving the little witch alone, looking very unhappy.

Even though she had already defeated Liu Shixian...

Everyone still thinks that female chess players are not good enough...

Looking at Jie Hao's receding back, Yang Manjing couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Really!
originally……

I don’t want to be that extreme!

The little witch bit her lip and then turned away decisively...

...

...

"Chairman, I think there's been a lot of public reaction in China to Rui Zhao giving up the women's competition!"

February 2th, Dongying City, Dongying Chess Institute.

Sato Tadao, vice president of the Japanese Chess Institute, who was in the president's office, couldn't help but sigh softly after seeing some comments on the Chinese Internet.

"Rui Zhao, it seems that you have also encountered the same dilemma as we did..."

"Zhongnan, let me correct you: it's not the dilemma we were in 'at that time'.

"The doubts about Uesaka have not ceased until today, right?"

Kobayashi Yahiko, who was standing next to his deputy, added:
“The same is true in China now.

"Originally, I heard that because Rui Zhao won the Nongshim Cup this time, the Chinese Chess Association planned to take the opportunity to give her a promotion to the ninth place.

"But now according to internal information, because of the huge controversy about Rui Zhao in public opinion, the Chinese Chess Association has to temporarily put it on hold and plans to avoid the limelight for a few days before bringing it up again..."

Hearing this, Sato Tadao couldn't help but sigh:
"Even with the precedents of Wu Jiudan and Jin Jiudan...female chess players still don't get the public's trust!"

"There's no way. People's inherent ideas can't be changed in a gentle way."

Kobayashi Yahiko sighed and said:
"Whether it's Wu Jiudan's South Korean [national player] title, or Kim Jiudan's LIG Cup runner-up, or Rui Zhao Qidan's Nongshim Cup final match this time...

“In the end, it’s not impactful enough.

“Only when women chess players can truly achieve what men have never achieved, people will be willing to accept the fact that:
"Female chess players are no worse than male chess players."

"But this is easier said than done!"

Sato Tadao also sighed, but at this time, Kobayashi Yahiko showed a sly smile:
"Zhongnan, that's not necessarily true!

“She is the Queen Zhaotian!
"The person who was able to change her fate in the home court of the God of Nongshim, and even Uesaka kept speaking for her yesterday.

"I heard that Rui Zhao himself doesn't seem to care about domestic public opinion at all. It seems that he has already rushed to Poyang Lake today to prepare for the Weiqi League relegation battle.

"I really think it would be great if Uesaka had a brave and fearless pioneer like Rui Zhao before him...

"It's really great!"

After saying this, Kobayashi Yahiko couldn't help but turn his head and look at his desk.

On his desk, there was a document that had been delivered this morning and was written in immature handwriting:

【About the application for transfer to South Korea Chess Association】
