"Sister Youen! Congratulations on winning the Wu Yue Cup again!
"This is your eighth consecutive Women's World Championship and your twelfth overall! This is truly unprecedented!"

At 12:26 pm on December , South Korea Chess Institute.

Kim Woo-eun, who had just finished this afternoon's training, met Kwon Sun-jin, a staff member of the chess academy and a little fan who had just changed shifts, and naturally received her blessing in person.

--Yes.

While the Chinese Yixian Tournament was in full swing, the five-day finals of this year's Wu Yue Cup also came to an end in Rongcheng three days ago.

In the end, Jin Youen eliminated Liu Yuhong in the semi-finals, and defeated the little witch who had just successfully avenged Uesaka Rei with a total score of 2 to 1 in the final, continuing to maintain her absolute dominance over the world women's chess world!
So, even though Kwon Sun-jin had sent a message to congratulate her immediately after the game, now that they met in person, this little fan girl naturally wanted to congratulate her again with joy.

"Ah...thank you."

Hearing Kwon Sun-jin's congratulations, the Ice Queen tried her best to force out a faint business smile, but she still looked uninterested.

"But the first female chess player in history... I'm afraid it will be a long time before we can make a final conclusion on this."

Normally speaking, to achieve such a terrifying result in the women's chess world, even though Wu Yueyun has achieved the brilliant achievement of reaching the top eight in the world championships three times and winning the title of domestic unlimited national competitions, Jin Youen's current results can definitely compete with hers.

But now the Ice Queen feels powerless in her pursuit of the title of "the greatest female chess player in history".

The reason is that Zhaojun of the time...

No, I should say...

The existence of the contemporary celebrity Zhaojun!
Although judging from the head-to-head record and dominance in women's competitions, Kim Woo-eun has a complete upper hand over Rui Zhao - in direct matches between the two sides, Kim Woo-eun leads 3-0, and in terms of the number of women's world championships, she has an overwhelming advantage of 12-0!
But in an unlimited arena, it’s a different situation.

China's current celebrity, Kim Woo-eun, knows very well what such an honor means to a female chess player.

Although if you must say, her LIG Cup runner-up is theoretically better than a national champion. But the problem is that since the Zhaojun Tournament, Rui Zhao has shown a quality of chess that can be described as amazing for a female chess player! Even in the game where she lost to Ji Qiujuan after making a mistake at the beginning of the game, her performance in the middle game was remarkable!

Not to mention...she even won the Nongshim Cup once!

In the face of these achievements, it is hard for Kim You-eun to think that she is on her way to becoming the "first female chess player in history", even...

Instead, it feels like it's getting further and further away!

Quan Shanzhen was stunned when she saw this, but then she realized what Jin Youen was struggling with, and immediately comforted him:
"Sister Youen, are you talking about Rui Zhao? But I think she is no match for you!
"Let me tell you, she is very controversial in China! Many people say that she got the title of "Celebrity" with the help of Ni Jue's Flying Knife Library, and she doesn't deserve the title at all!

"After the celebrity tournament, she immediately lost to Ji Qiujuan in the first round of the Immortal Chess Tournament. In the tenth round of the Chinese Weiqi League that just ended today, she also lost to Lei Qi!
"I just glanced at some forums on the Chinese Internet, and a bunch of people are mocking her! They say that without Senior Brother, Fei Dao's true colors are revealed!"

"The prototype is revealed?"

The Ice Queen, who had been following Rui Zhao's competition, gave a rare bitter smile upon hearing this:
"Shanzhen, things are not as you said...

"In this final, it was already very difficult for me to replace Yang Manjing, the weakest player in the Pohu team...

"Not to mention he's the captain of their team?"

...

...

"Um……

"I'll be relieved if you can participate in the celebrity competition in this state!"

At the same time, in Hongdu City, China, Tengjiang Pavilion Xihuan Hotel.

Lei Qi, who had just finished reviewing the game with Rui Zhao, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as he watched a main general battle in the tenth round of the regular season of the Weiqi League that had just ended in front of him.

Although after the first round of the Yixian Tournament, Rui Zhao seemed to have successfully reconciled himself and no longer had any unnecessary thoughts.

But the day before yesterday, Sun Yi lost the title of "Yixian", which was extremely important to him and could be said to be his last dignity. Lei Qi was still quite worried about the overall condition of his famous star Zhaojun.

After all... Rui Zhao's previous excessive concern about the use of flying knives to stab people in the celebrity competition was partly due to the series of blows Sun Yi had suffered recently.

But now it seems... Rui Zhao's condition is not bad at all!
Although Lei Qi won the game in the end, Rui Zhao also played very well and kept putting pressure on Lei Qi who was leading!
The young number one player in China hardly had a chance to relax during the entire game, and the intensity of the game was not much less than the rather brutal three-game match of the Immortals a few days ago!

This finally made Lei Qi feel relieved:
“…Originally, I was a little worried that if Brother Sun lost his title, it would affect your condition.

"But now it seems that I was worrying too much..."

"There's nothing we can do about this..."

When talking about this topic, Rui Zhao, who was originally actively reviewing the discussion, lowered his eyes:
“In fact, in the three games of the chess match, I felt that Senior Brother Sun played very well, and he fought with the momentum of a do-or-die battle!

"But... chess players compete on the chessboard.

"Lei Qi, you are in such great shape, you deserve to win the title.

"All I can do now, apart from sending WeChat messages to comfort him, is to strive for better results as much as possible!
"After all... until recently when Senior Brother Sun and I were sparring, he still firmly suppressed me!

"If I can defeat more masters, it should be able to indirectly give him more confidence!"

"Well, that's how it should be..."

Seeing his "strong enemy" gathering all his strength, Lei Qi couldn't help but smile and responded. But at this moment, Rui Zhao seemed to have suddenly thought of something and quickly added:
“…Oh, that’s right!
"After the Yixian match, I was so busy comforting Senior Brother Sun that I forgot to congratulate you!

“Well, that…

"Congratulations on getting the title of [Chess Immortal]! Lei Qi Ninth Stage!

"I am only one step away from winning all the domestic titles!"

"Ah, thank you..."

Lei Qi suddenly felt a little embarrassed to be congratulated by a beautiful woman of the same age, and subconsciously curled his hair:

"besides……

"You should... just congratulate, right?"

"……Eh?"

Rui Zhao was slightly stunned:
"Is there anything else to do?"

“…That’s not the case.”

Lei Qi smiled slightly mischievously and said:

"I'm relieved to see that you won't say anything stupid like 'If it weren't for me, you would have already achieved the achievement of dominating all titles'!"

"...Woo!"

The girl in front of Lei Qi couldn't help but puff up her lips a little when she heard this:

“I’m not very smart, but I’m not that stupid either!

"In short, I will continue to work hard in the coming year, and I will never easily give up the title of "Celebrity" that Senior Brother Ni entrusted to me!
“Even if you are Lei Qi Jiudan!
"...

"……Um?

"Lei, Lei Qi Jiudan, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah!
"No, nothing! Nothing!
"I'm just a little worried about you in this celebrity competition..."

It was not until this moment that Lei Qi finally realized his distraction and shook his head hurriedly.

Even though it was just a very simple action, when the girl in front of him puffed up her lips, he really felt that she was so cute that it was a bit unfair, and he was stunned for a moment.

hiss--

She seems... indeed... a little bit pretty...

He is a very pure person... and his chess playing skills are impeccable...

No wonder Liu Shixian said at that time, "If it were her, it wouldn't be impossible to consider things like love and marriage"...

but……

The opponent is a "strong enemy"!!!

I have already said, 'It's a pity to use her as a love interest'!!!
Xiao Lei quickly kept reminding himself in his heart.

Keep the relationship pure! Don't have any messy thoughts!

And... I didn't manage to use the flow state in the game just now, so I still have a lot to improve!

If I get distracted, I’m afraid I’ll lose the last bit of my dignity!

It was embarrassing enough to be chased by her all the way to the unlimited arena, but if she could catch up with me...

Then I might as well get Gallic citizenship!

Although Little Lei Jiuduan was struggling for a while, Rui Zhao in front of him had no idea why Lei Qi suddenly reacted inappropriately, so he could only continue to muster up his confidence and say:

“…Is that so?

"That... Anyway! Don't worry about Lei Qi Jiudan!

"Like you said, I got the title of [Celebrity] by defeating you, Senior Brother Sun, and Ji Jiudan!
"I will take this awareness with me to this Huaying Celebrity Competition!"

"Yes, it is like that."

Lei Qi quickly straightened his mind, and after a little thought, he added:
"Especially for Brother Sun, you have to behave better.

"To be honest, your current performance... is directly linked to Brother Sun's reputation."

“…Huh?!” (End of this chapter)
