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

Chapter 936 You think so too, right?

"Well……

I've made it to the semifinals, but she didn't even send me a message on WeChat...

When I made it to the quarterfinals of the Miao Family Bailing Cup, she came to congratulate me!

Half an hour later, inside the chess game room of Kunchi Resort.

After confirming once again that his witch comrades had not sent him a congratulatory WeChat message, Xiao Chu Jiudan, who was sitting in the audience waiting for the draw, frowned slightly, and the smile on his face gradually froze and stiffened.

Although Xiao Chu had just won a tough battle with Park Min-yeol and was very happy to advance to the semi-finals of the World Championships for the first time, he has not received any congratulatory WeChat messages from his comrades until now. His originally cheerful mood is gradually cooling down.

As she said before...

At least I have to wait until my Yiguo ID becomes silver...

Little Chu Jiuduan, who was quite worried, pursed his lips unconsciously.

That’s... understandable, right?

After all, she has already won the women's title and the women's world championship. She is also one of the only two women's ninth dan in our country since the new century.

If I have to say, in fact, the progress of people of the same age may be faster than mine!
Asking my boyfriend to have a silver ID...this request is really not too much!

But to be honest, Chu Jun himself knows: Under the current circumstances, it is not easy to win the national championship or the world runner-up!

Among the top chess players in the world today, although Liu Shixian and Sun Yi, two chess players from the previous generation born in 00, may be in decline, it is almost certain that Lei Rui and others who are of the same age will become his victims throughout his career!

Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that I will never reach the threshold of Silver ID due to the pressure from the two of them, it is really hard to say when I will reach it. It is not impossible that it will be delayed for three or four years!
However, this kind of uncertainty is something that Xiao Chu Jiudan cannot accept at all - he may be "peacefully broken up" by Yang Manjing at any time!
Besides, although the term "Rawley fan" seems to be out of date now, changing it to "Copper Alchemist" is just a change of name!
The little witch is indeed short and flat and not very feminine, but what if there is a pervert who likes this? ! I'm afraid that all kinds of tricks will be used on her... No!

Why do I feel like I'm scolding myself?!

Chu Jun suddenly realized that he was AOEed and shook his head hurriedly, then quickly put his mind back on the LIG Cup semi-finals which was about to begin the day after tomorrow.

Although... the other three in the top four are recognized as the top three in the world, and any one of them is extremely difficult to beat.

But no matter what, I'm already standing at the doorstep of the World Championship finals, I have to fight to the death!
Now that I’ve made it to the finals, I’ll officially confess my love to her when I return home!
Thinking of this, Xiao Chu Jiudan secretly clenched his fists.

And at this moment, the host officially announced the grand start of the drawing ceremony.

There was no need to elaborate on the various polite words in between, as the scene quickly got to the point - the semi-final draw.

Liu Shixian, who was the first to go on stage, drew lot number 1, and Rui Zhao, who came on stage absent-mindedly right after him, drew lot number 4.

Either Liu Shixian or Rui Zhao...

Chu Jun muttered to himself.

半决赛对阵是1对2，3对4——所以在仅剩下2、3两根签的情况下，他已经确定并不会对上雷歧。

However, after knowing this in advance, Chu Jun's mood did not fluctuate at all.

For him, any of the top three in the world is an extremely tough nut to crack, and there is essentially no difference between them.

The only thing we can do is to fight with all our might, that's all!

As Lei Qi, who was the third to draw the lot, officially showed his No. 2 lot to the public, before Chu Jun came on stage, the semi-final matchup of this LIG Cup had already been determined:

【Liu Shixian】 vs 【Lei Qi】

Chu Jun vs Rui Zhao

...

...

To Liu Shixian...?

Just as Xiao Chu Jiudan, who had just determined his semi-final opponent, took a deep breath in the audience, Lei Qi, who had just seen the result of his draw on the stage, also subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

To be honest, for him, since it has been confirmed that he will meet one of Liu Rui, from the perspective of winning the championship, this draw is definitely a better result.

Now, in terms of hard power in slow chess, he thought he was still better than his old rival, but the flying knife of the famous player Zhaojun was too frightening, so it became a lot more difficult.

But... after all, Rui Zhao doesn't have the years of accumulation like Ni Jue, and he just used two flying knives in the celebrity match. If they have to meet, it will definitely be more advantageous to drag it to the final of the three-game match.

On the other hand, although Lei Qi himself felt that he was no less powerful than his opponent in terms of pure strength, the opponent had much more experience in World Championship finals. The longer it dragged on, the more trouble would arise. It would be ideal to meet him in the semifinals in advance.

But for some reason, Xiao Lei Jiudan always felt a little regretful for not being able to draw his nemesis.

The last time I met her at the World Championships was at last year’s Tongge Cup…

It shouldn't be a problem for her to defeat Chu Jun this time, but if I fail to defeat Liu Shixian again... Tsk! The reigning chess master of China couldn't help but frown slightly.

Being eliminated by Liu Shixian like in the Asian Games, and then watching him meet his old rival in the finals... Xiao Lei, the ninth dan, would never want to experience this again!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but subconsciously glance at the number one person in the world who had made him lose countless times in the past year and a half.

However, today the young master of the Liu family was a little out of character. In the past, he always loved to tease the Chinese leader, but after knowing the match, he just lowered his eyes and looked at the empty long table in front of him, as if he was thinking about something, but also seemed to be thinking about nothing.

Lei Qi was a little surprised by Liu Shixian's reaction, but the pressure from him now was indeed much less than his usual unfathomable look with a gentle smile on his face, which was what Lei Qi naturally hoped to see.

After drawing the lots, Lei Qi stepped down from the stage and returned to his seat.

At this time, Xiaohanhan, who had just finished drawing lots, had not yet buried himself in the questions because he had to wait for the results of the subsequent matches to be released. Seeing Lei Qi coming back, he complained with some regret:

"Ah... Lei Qi 2th Dan, if you are the No. pick... then it looks like I will be facing Chu Jun in the semifinals!

"Why do I always get the weakest one in every round of this LIG Cup..."

"..."

Xiao Lei Jiudan, who had just sat down, almost collapsed in dismay at the sudden shocking words of the contemporary Zhaojun:
"...Please! Don't say this to Chu Jun!

"Otherwise, I think he will definitely have some mental fluctuations, and will be even weaker in the competition the day after tomorrow..."

“Ahh?!

"Is that so?!"

Rui Zhao quickly covered his mouth and then looked towards Chu Jun's seat.

Fortunately, at this time, Xiao Chu Jiudan still needed to go on stage to go through the formalities, otherwise he would have been affected by Empress Zhaotian's unconscious "out-of-the-box tricks".

"call……"

Rui Zhao touched his chest, feeling relieved, and then continued:
"But, it's okay! Chu Jun also beat me last time! Besides...

"Lei Qi Jiudan, you have to work hard too!
“I remember that as early as last year’s Spring Orchid Cup, we had always agreed to meet in the final of an international competition, but after a year and a half, we haven’t succeeded once!
“I lost to Zhu Yuanjun 9th Dan in the Chunzhilan Cup, we both failed to make the finals in this year’s Tongge Cup, and I failed to beat Liu 9th Dan in the Miaojia Bailing Cup.

"I finally made it to the finals of the men's individual event at the Asian Games, but you broke the promise again."

"Ah...it's been a long time indeed! Good things take time!"

After thinking back, Xiao Lei Jiudan showed a slightly helpless smile:

"But this time, the key is whether I can defeat Liu Shixian..."

"no problem!"

Without waiting for Lei Qi to finish, Rui Zhao said without hesitation:
"Didn't I say it before? I think you, Lei Qi Jiudan, are already stronger than Liu Jiudan! You can definitely do it!"

"Ah... um, um...

"Thank you! I will try my best!
After hearing Rui Zhao's simple encouragement, the Chinese leader, who had been feeling a little overwhelmed, suddenly felt refreshed and relaxed.

Although Rui Zhao's words were always plain and simple, for some reason, they always made Lei Qi feel indescribably happy.

However, when Lei Qi heard the other party talking about the conversation after the celebrity match between the two again, he couldn't help but hide his conflicted feelings after the last round.

After hesitating for two seconds, he pretended to ask casually:
"No, but... didn't you also say that you set your goal as the best in history?

"Then you are...

"Are you serious?"

"Hmm? Of course!"

Rui Zhao's answer was very natural, as if it was as it should be.

But this affirmative answer made Lei Qi's heart skip a beat.

Because the meaning behind this is not difficult to understand: Although I think you are the best in the world now, I also beat you in the celebrity tournament. It has a flavor of "even if the mountain is high, I am still the peak".

Of course, it is normal for athletes to have such a positive and enterprising mentality - for example, Lin Ruixin made many shocking remarks after she became famous.

However, these words have a subtle meaning to Lei Qi at the moment.

But just when Lei Qi was a little confused, his "enemy" asked back:
"presumably……

"Leiqi Jiuduan, you think so too, right?"
