Go: The live broadcast queen launched a gorgeous rebellion against the dog

Chapter 733: Guilt and Innocence
【Caller: Little Witch】

……Um?

She...she called me back?!

At 8 o'clock in the evening of the same day, in the dormitory of Pengze team in Pengze City, Greater Bay Area.

Xiao Chu, who sent a text message of consolation to the opponent immediately after the game but has not received a reply yet, was now wondering how he had offended Miss Witch, so that he has been ignored since she inquired about some internal information of her team a week ago.

But just when he was considering whether he should ask Rui Zhao about the Pohu team's return plan tomorrow so that he could go and talk to Yang Manjing in person offline, that "comrade of the same age" suddenly called him!
This caught Little Glasses off guard.

What is going on?!

Could it be that I have done something to upset her and she wants to vent her anger over the phone? !
Chu Jun couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he thought of the worst case scenario, but thinking that this was always an opportunity, he quickly answered the phone and said with some anxiety in his heart:
"Hello, good evening! Little witch!"

Hearing Chu Jun's trembling greeting, the young player of the Pohu team on the opposite side couldn't help laughing and said:

“Hey, hey…

"Do we have to be so stiff when greeting each other?"

Hearing the other party teasing him, it seemed that he was in a good mood. Chu Jun finally let go of his worries and breathed a sigh of relief:
"You even blocked me on WeChat. I thought I had offended you in some way! How could your tone not be harsh?"

But the little witch on the other side immediately expressed her opinion when she heard this:

"What do you mean by 'thought'? It means you did something wrong, okay!

"I saw you won the game so I sent you a WeChat message to congratulate you, but you started asking about Rui Zhao!

"If you are thinking straight, shouldn't you congratulate me on my victory first?!"

“…Huh?

"So you care about this?"

Chu Jun blurted out:
"But the quality of your game was so poor. In the end, you only won because of Tong Jingyou's move!"

"So-so?!

"Am I your comrade or is Rui Zhao your comrade? Can't you just congratulate me?"

"Oh, yes, yes! I was wrong, I was wrong!

"I deserve to be beaten, I deserve to be beaten!"

Hearing that Queen Mulan's tone was obviously unhappy again, Little Glasses, who finally began to develop a desire to survive, repeatedly criticized himself.

“Wow…So what Sister Wang and Sister Yu Hong said is absolutely correct.

"Men really need to be trained little by little..."

It's obviously because you women's minds are so hard to guess, okay!
——Except that silly Rui Zhao!
Chu Jun complained angrily in his heart, but he naturally didn't dare to complain a word.

Just as he was thinking about how to change the topic away from his own "fault", he didn't expect the other party to hand him a pillow first:

“…But, never mind!

"This time... I'll forgive you!

"Rui Zhao's game of single chess against a strong opponent was indeed very interesting. It's no wonder you asked about it...

"Even my victory over Tong Jingyou was essentially thanks to her!"

"……Eh?"

Chu Jun was quite surprised by this reaction.

Although the little witch did not have any hostility towards Rui Zhao on weekdays, she did have a strong sense of competition. The common name "Sister Rui" best illustrates the problem.

As a result today...

He actually spoke well of Rui Zhao for the first time? !

For a moment, Chu Jun, who had just begun to have his own desire to survive, was a little unsure whether this was a sting operation, so he asked tentatively:
"It's... okay? I don't think there's that much difference between you two!

"Anyway, they are all women's title holders, and they are all in the lower go league..."

"Hmm... not bad! This attitude is not bad!"

Yang Manjing expressed satisfaction with Chu Jun's statement:

"It just needs some practice - these words, which are obviously flattering, still sound a little stiff."

"...Oh." Chu Jun simply responded speechlessly.

"So, there's no need to comfort me like that! I still know how big the gap is between her and me!"

Queen Mulan continued to sigh softly:
"That... Chu Jun."

"Ok?"

"For this year's Tongge Cup preliminaries... I will sign up for the open category like her."

“…Huh?

"Are you planning to sign up for the open group like Rui Zhao?!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chu Jiuduan was stunned, and could not understand the little witch's decision.

As a world championship with 48 players, the Tongge Cup has a special quota for female players from China, Japan and South Korea, who are selected through the women's group. The other quotas are selected through the open group without any conditions.

In the Tongge Cup women's group preliminaries last year, Zhao Tianhou, who had already announced that she would no longer participate in the women's individual competition, went all the way and even registered for the open group in the World Championships preliminaries! As a result, she lost to Langzi in the final round of the preliminaries, and had to rely on Gezhou City to issue a wild card to rescue this "image ambassador", which attracted a lot of sarcasm from Zhao's haters at the time.

With Rui Zhao not there, the qualifying spot for the women's group suddenly became uncertain, and in the end, Little Bird narrowly defeated Little Witch to get the spot.

However, another year has passed, and as the new queen Mulan has grown more mature, the outside world generally believes that an 80% chance of winning the women's group this year will go to the little witch.

At the same time, considering that the little witch performed better than expected in the Weiqi League playoffs, it is estimated that she has a very high chance of successfully rising to the ninth dan in the Tongge Cup qualifiers and becoming the first female ninth dan in China since the new century.

But the result...

Now Miss Witch suddenly announced that she would hold open group preliminaries?
This means you don’t even want the spot in the World Championships right in front of you!
"...No, what are you thinking! "If you sign up for the open group, you may not be able to qualify!"

Chu Jun immediately advised:

“When we both qualified for the Mengli Lily Cup qualifiers, didn’t we agree to meet again in the Tongge Cup?

"Why are you planning on breaking your promise first?!"

"Why did you break your promise? You shouldn't be so decisive!"

The little witch immediately protested:

"There are still more than three months until the Tongge Cup preliminaries in late June. I will continue to get stronger!"

"Uh……"

Seeing that Queen Mulan was determined, Chu Jun knew that he could not force her to be unhappy, so he said in a roundabout way:
“Of course I believe this!

"But...but what's wrong with you?
"Didn't you say you wanted to wait until you became the 'first female 9th dan in the new century' before gradually withdrawing from women's competitions? Why did you start before you even got to 9th dan?

"You should know that the two stages of the Asian Games selection in early and mid-June are internal selections, but they are not counted in the rating points and promotion points!
"In the Mulan tournament in late March, you only need to defend your title, and the number of games is too small. Starting in April, the Tianyuan tournament is a completely unrestricted tournament, and the competition is fierce.

"If you don't participate in the Tongge Cup Women's Group Qualifiers, you may not be able to successfully advance to the ninth level. You will have to wait until the new Weiqi League opens in July. When you can advance to the ninth level will depend on your luck in the Weiqi League!"

"I know all this... that was indeed the original plan..."

The little witch on the other side seemed to reply with emotion:

"But after today's match, I suddenly felt that I... I might not be worthy of the title of 'China's first female ninth dan in the new century'.

"Compared to that contemporary Zhaojun, I am still far behind!
"Besides, relying on women's competitions to advance to the ninth grade... is a bit embarrassing..."

"What do you mean by 'it's a bit embarrassing to be promoted to ninth grade by relying on women's competitions'?
"The women's competition is also an official competition stipulated by the association and counts towards the points for promotion!"

Chu Jun immediately retorted:
“Besides, you performed well in the second half of the Weiqi League. In the playoffs, you even beat Tong Jingyou and fought against world champions like Lin Ruixin and He Wei until the end!
"In my opinion, you absolutely deserve the title of 'China's first female ninth dan in the new century'!"

"Ah, thank you...By the way, do you have to learn to comfort people so quickly?"

While thanking him, Yang Manjing teased Chu Jun a little:
"But... Rui Zhao deserves it more than me, doesn't he?"

"Uh……"

Chu Jun was speechless for a moment - this was indeed true.

As for the Queen Zhaotian, even he, a young talent who had already been promoted to the ninth level, could only look up to her!

And if Yang Manjing were really thrown into an unlimited competition, I'm afraid he has just reached the eighth dan level and will certainly not be able to compare with Rui Zhao.

Seeing Chu Jun fall into silence, Yang Manjing on the other end of the phone continued to speak calmly:

"In this Weiqi League playoffs, not only did I play with white in every game, I also occupied all the fast chess tables at home. It can be said that I was taken care of in every way.

"In the end, I didn't win the two rounds against the Tiangang team... I really held back Rui Zhao, who won all four games with black. I feel so sorry for her...

"So... after finishing my meal, I went to Rui Zhao's room and told her about my future plans: I also want to stop participating in women's competitions!

"This means that my promotion points will not increase for the time being, and may even decrease... She will most likely be promoted to ninth dan before me and become 'China's first female ninth dan in the new century'!"

"Yang Manjing, this is not necessary!"

After hearing what the other party said, Chu Jun couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

As someone with rich experience as "Nan Murong", he naturally knows how important encouragement in the form of honor is for a "genius" who has to compete with monsters!

This was also the reason why he attached so much importance to winning the Rookie of the Year title in the first place - even though he won that Rookie of the Year title after Lei Qi had already won the national championship and decided not to participate in the Rookie of the Year title competition, it was still a precious honor that could motivate him for a long time!

As a result, the little witch had a rare opportunity to make Rui Zhao lose face, but she gave it up "because she felt that the other party was more worthy of her". Chu Jun felt that there was no need to be so "strict with herself".

"...Hey! Rui Zhao is really something, doesn't she usually care about honors and ranks?

"Why are you letting your own team members sacrifice themselves at this time?!"

"…Yeah! So she didn't agree to this plan!"

"She didn't agree to this plan either...eh?"

Chu Jun continued to complain for two seconds before he suddenly realized something was wrong:

"What did you say? She didn't agree?!"

"Yeah... after all, he's that silly fool!"

Even across the phone, Chu Jun seemed to see the little witch's helpless smile:
"She told me not to worry about today's game and just keep training and improving at my own pace. We will work together to win the championship in the next league!
"As for the so-called 'China's first female ninth dan in the new century'... she never cared about it at all."

"Well……

"She is indeed worthy of being the Queen Zhao who embarrassed Chairman Shang in public at the Weiqi League awards ceremony!"

Hearing this, Chu Jun couldn't help but sigh, but he immediately realized that something was wrong:

"...Hey wait!
"Didn't Rui Zhao tell you not to do anything reckless?! Why did you say you wanted to participate in the open group preliminaries?!"

"This?"

Yang Manjing didn't think there was any problem at all:
"Rui Zhao only said that she didn't care about the honor of 'the first female 9th dan in the new century in China', but she still wanted me to continue training and improve!

"Then I will naturally work harder and fight for the championship with her next season!"

"Eh?"

"Besides... not participating in the women's preliminaries doesn't mean you can't get to the ninth dan."

Before Chu Jun could come back to his senses, Yang Manjing's calm and relieved voice came again:
"If I can still advance to ninth grade before her...

"I can then be more worthy of it!"
