Chapter 654 Controversy Renewed
"Qiu Juan, congratulations on entering the semi-finals."

At the same time, in the players' rest area of ​​the Grand Blue Sky Hotel in Pengze City.

Dai Ran, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw Ji Qiujuan returning from the chess room and immediately stepped forward to congratulate him.

Although this time, his purpose of staying here after being eliminated by Lei Qi in the round of 16 was not for Ji Qiujuan.

But Dai Gong is naturally happy to see that the young players in the team can overcome all the difficulties.

"Ah, thank you, Dai."

Ji Qiujuan still showed her characteristic, slightly shy smile:

"In fact, this game was originally quite tense, but Lin Ruixin seemed to be distracted after patrolling the field, and he collapsed inexplicably. I don't know if there are other reasons behind it..."

Having said this, Xiao Ji paused and quite abruptly started another conversation:

"...Sun Yi was actually defeated by Rui Zhao..."

"……Um."

Dai Ran narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Have you seen it?"

"I'll always take a look after the game."

After answering the question, Ji Qiujuan smiled and said:

“Originally, I thought it was a good thing—after all, my record against Sun Yi was pretty dismal.

"As a result, I took another quick look on the way here...something seemed a little off."

“…What’s wrong?”

Ji Qiujuan paused for a moment after hearing this, and then continued to explain:

"First of all... although Rui Zhao won this game by flying knives, but after facing Sun Yi's full-strength disruption, her control of the board and simplification of the situation in the second half were very brilliant, showing a very high level...

"I should say, I really deserve to be guided by you, Brother Dai, for so long!"

Over the past six months, Dai Ran has been guiding Rui Zhao. As a close teammate, Ji Qiujuan knows a little about this.

Dai Ran hesitated for two seconds and replied simply:

“Of course.

"This girl... is indeed very talented, and her diligence is so impressive that I have to admit it."

Ji Qiujuan nodded in agreement and continued:
"Secondly... I just saw some discussions and updates about this game online.

"Although Brother Jue posted a status to deny that this was a flying knife he researched himself, I always feel that Rui Zhao...

"Does she have any throwing knives to use when she plays chess?"

“…I’m not sure about that.”

Dai Ran's answer still seemed to reveal no information:

"But I only know that Rui Zhao will be very strong in this Masters Tournament, even better than Xiao Lei.

"Qiu Juan, you have to be careful."

“…Hmm…

"Then I understand. Thank you, Brother Dai."

Ji Qiujuan nodded, but her expression didn't change much, as if she didn't understand the meaning of Dai Ran's words at all.

Dai Ran, however, discovered a bright spot in Ji Qiujuan's words and asked:

"Um, Qiu Juan.

"You just said you saw some discussions and updates about this game online? Did Ni Jue also post updates?
“This chess game…

"Didn't it just end half an hour ago?"

Hearing this, Ji Qiujuan couldn't help but smile and shook his head:
"Brother Dai, it seems...

"You still underestimate the level of attention our top player in the Go circle receives!"

...

…【I just laughed! You won a game of chess with someone else's flying knife, and you still have the nerve to brag about it?】

[Do these Zhao fans have any brains? ]

[Besides stealing other people's flying knives, what else can she do?! ]

[I've said it before, Rui Zhao is a fake and only relies on his senior brother to protect him! ]

[A friend of mine in the industry once told me that although Rui Zhao’s performance seems to be okay, he actually relies on Ni Jue’s flying knife to support him! ]

[Everyone in the circle knows that Rui Zhao has Ni Jue's flying knife library. Everyone is on guard against her when playing chess. She always performs poorly every time she plays chess, so it seems that her performance is better than other female chess players.]

[If we really go head-to-head, it’s hard to say whether she has the professional level! ]

……

"This little lousy chess player is really going crazy trying to achieve results!"

At the same time, in Lin Ruixin's room.

Lin Ruixin, who was lying on the bed and reading various "black posts" on the Yiguo Forum, almost laughed out loud at this moment!

Although he lost the game today, Lin Dawanghong was in a good mood today. He even didn't bother to review his game after it was over, and went straight back to his room to browse various Go forums!
And the reason...

Naturally, the chess game played by the contemporary Concubine Zhaojun today caused huge controversy on the Internet!

Although judging from the content of the game, this game was undoubtedly a complete victory for Rui Zhao: since the huge advantage was established at the beginning, the winning rate of black chess has been suppressed lower and lower, leaving Sun Yi almost no chance!

but……

It was precisely because of this huge advantage at the start that Rui Zhao was quickly drawn into the whirlpool of public opinion.

Throwing knives.

This is undoubtedly a rather sensitive word considering the series of brilliant achievements Rui Zhao has achieved so far.

Because his two best results so far - finishing in the Nongshim Cup and reaching the semi-finals of the Spring Orchid Cup - were both achieved with flying knives. At the same time, Rui Zhao also has a famous senior brother who is well-known for his research on flying knives!

Now, although she has made it to the semi-finals of the Masters Tournament for the first time, creating her best performance in domestic competitions, she is greeted with more than just applause from fans and praise from the media. The suspicion and controversy that has always been around her also erupted in an instant!

It can be said that for as many posts praising Rui Zhao's achievement of being the first to kill the "legendary Naizhaoren" Sun Yi, there are as many posts criticizing Rui Zhao for his "unidentified origin of the flying knife" and "all relying on wasting the shock waves from his senior brother's flying knife library."

This... is undoubtedly what Lin Ruixin would like to see.

The more doubts there are about Rui Zhao's own strength, the more room he has to whitewash his disastrous defeat in the Spring Orchid Cup and his withdrawal from the King of Kings Tournament!

More importantly, Rui Zhao used a flying knife to deal with Sun Yi, which meant that Ni Jue’s reserve of flying knives was reduced by one!
This made Lin Ruixin, who had been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge after the celebrity game, even more excited, as if he had already seen the situation where the enemy he hated would be beaten to his knees and beg for mercy!
But...it's really amazing that she would suddenly use a throwing knife in a mere celebrity tournament quarterfinals!
Is it because you saw that you might face me in the next round, so you want to advance and come to attack me specifically?
While reading the posts, Lin Ruixin couldn't help but think.

I guess... that's understandable...

Her grades have been so bad in the past six months that the popularity she had at the beginning of the year has faded a lot. She really needs a wave of convincing and topic-worthy results to attract attention.

And if he could step on my head and make it to the Challenger Finals at the Masters, that would be quite a show...

only……

Ah! Ah!
I'm not fucking stupid!
Thinking of this, Lin Ruixin couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, appearing very mocking, and his whole body exuded a sense of pleasure at having easily resolved the other party's little trick.

It’s not that difficult to patrol the field, find out that the situation is not right, and then use a few “losing moves” to lose on purpose!

Do you really think I would be stupid enough to wait for you to kill me?
After the Masters Tournament...

It's time for me to come and settle accounts with you!

Thinking of this, Lin Ruixin's expression suddenly became ferocious, as if he was ready to get rid of something!
But... this slightly creepy expression didn't last long.

Soon, Lin Ruixin's expression returned to the playful and amused state of watching the fun at the beginning, and he continued to leisurely enjoy the endless "black posts" on the forum.

But as he watched, Lin Ruixin's expression suddenly froze.

Because a piece of news that he couldn't believe appeared very abruptly at the top of the forum post:

【Report——Latest news! 】

[Pig vs. Dog! Roaring Sky Dog defeated the round pig with great power and avenged his master!!!]
