Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 287 Massacre
Move 26, White, cut!

Li Junhe is preparing to abandon his pawn.

After nearly twenty years in his professional career, Lee Jun-hyuk now truly understands what it means to walk on thin ice, and every step he takes feels like dancing on a knife's edge.

I spent countless hours thinking and verifying, as if I had spent my whole life in this corner, but in reality I only made four moves and the time bar was almost used up.

But at least, things should get through here smoothly.

In Li Junhe's mind, after he broke, Yi Zheng would probably bend down as well, and then he would continue to rush down and keep rushing down.

In this way, Li Junhe abandoned his son, and Yi Zheng gained a huge amount of real money, which was about 160,000 units of real money. It can be said that he gained a lot.

However, Li Junhe also gained influence on both sides, which seems to be quite good.

However, Li Junhe's problem is whether his external influence can make up for the losses on the ground.

However, Li Junhe could clearly sense that the piece that Yi Zheng had broken off outside had a great impact on his external forces on both sides, and could even be described as a fatal threat.

But there's nothing we can do now. Let it have its impact. At least it's not a major problem. The situation is still roughly even, which is acceptable.

"Want to end this knife throwing incident in the simplest way possible?"

Yi Zheng also keenly perceived Li Junhe's intention to sacrifice a piece, sacrificing some interests in exchange for stability in the game.

It has a lot of Lee Jun-hyuk's style.

But the throwing knife is already out of its sheath, and it's only the first round, so how can we let you continue so smoothly?

That doesn't match the power of this throwing knife at all.

Back then, Old Ke pinned me against the wall and stabbed me to death.

Trying to abandon a pawn and solidify the situation isn't that easy!
Move 27, Black, turn!

Seeing this, Li Junhe couldn't help but frown. He couldn't understand why Yi Zheng would give up such a good opportunity? If he just bent down, wouldn't he be able to directly devour the corner?
After careful consideration, Li Junhe still chose to grow downwards, a move he was certain wouldn't be wrong.

Yi Zheng simply chose to eat two pieces.

Li Junhe couldn't understand what Yi Zheng was thinking. Wouldn't this mean that the actual territory they gained would be smaller?
"But this leads to more changes."

When I understand the changes but you don't, preserving the variables is the best option!

After thinking for a moment, Li Junhe struck from below. After Yi Zhengchang broke the stone, Li Junhe flew outwards.

Without any hesitation, Yi Zheng went directly to the lower left star position and performed a small flying corner.

There are actually many changes here, but Yi Zheng is not in a hurry at all.

Take it easy.

Don't worry, just play with him.

Pull out several of his teeth within three steps!
My skill as a chess player lies in winning by simply standing still!

Li Junhe's best option now is to control the two pieces that Yi Zheng has broken off.

However, Li Junhe believed that although the upper and lower outer shapes had certain flaws, the complex pattern in the upper left corner should have come to an end and there was no need to rush to deal with it for the time being.

So after a moment's thought, Li Junhe chose a black stone in the lower left corner that was easy to trap and hang in.

Seeing this, Yi Zheng maintained his calm smile.

Move 35, Black chess, fly!

Without any hesitation, Yi Zheng immediately mobilized from the central government.

After making his move, Li Junhe's external forces on both sides instantly transformed from a "majestic Great Wall" into a flickering candle in the wind, riddled with flaws and on the verge of collapse!

Hmm... saying it like that sounds a bit unlucky.

Never mind, we're not playing cards!

"We cannot engage in direct combat..."

Countless images flashed through Li Junhe's mind, and his brows furrowed even more.

If this area is directly contested, Yi Zheng not only has an advantage in capturing pieces, but can also exploit various weaknesses in his external forces.

Killing himself wouldn't work; if he did, Yi Zheng would gain a huge amount of real power, even more than he had originally anticipated.

"Are you waiting for me here?"

Li Junhe couldn't help but frown. He had to admire Yi Zheng's research in this area; he had done a very deep job!

Thinking of this, Li Junhe first went back upstairs and made a move.

This not only strengthens our external influence but also fills the gaps in our existing forces, preparing us for future battles.

Yi Zheng pressed his hand without any hesitation.

We must prevent Li Junhe from charging upwards again. After all, Li Junhe already has support from the higher positions. If he breaks through and the fighting resumes, the situation will be different.

Seeing this, Li Junhe chose to step out from above.

When Yi Zheng charged, Li Junhe immediately stuck to him, and in the end, Yi Zheng was defeated.

"This part of the battle is so complicated..."

Looking at the shapes on the chessboard, Teacher An couldn't help but scratch his head. He was now completely afraid to make any comments, fearing that anything he said now would be wrong, and that he would be proven wrong by the new research results after the game.

This part is really too complicated.

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out!

I don't know how to do this problem!

Move 45, Black, Ban!

Seeing the changes that Li Junhe chose to preserve, Yi Zheng did not hesitate and immediately subjected him to the maximum amount of torture, no, test.

Li Junhe was also frowning. Time was almost up, but the situation was still very complicated.

Even if they manage to maintain a 50/50 situation, once they enter the middle game, they won't have enough time, while Yi Zheng will have plenty of time. This situation can no longer be described as unfavorable.

The shadow of the countdown would hang over Lee Jun-hyuk's head like the Sword of Damocles.

Time is money; that's a saying that's not just for show.

"I can't just return it directly. That way, we'll be fine, but I won't have enough time, and I might get worn down."

Li Junhe never imagined that one day he would have to worry about being worn down by his opponent.

It's true what they say, fortunes change, and things I never imagined before are actually happening now.

"But cutting it off at the central level would be too risky..."

Faced with the choice between radicalism and conservatism, Li Junhe chose to follow.

Move 46, White, Ban!

Seeing this, Yi Zheng could no longer suppress his smile.

It's started! They're finally taking the bait! No matter how powerful Li Junhe's calculation skills are, it's impossible for him not to make a miscalculation the first time he faces Mi Dao!
After all, even AI with slightly lower computing power can't figure out Mi Dao.

Yi Zheng didn't hesitate at all and cut it off immediately!
Li Junhe also did not hesitate; he had to go all in here!

Move 48, White, make komi!

If Lee Jun-hyuk could capture all the black stones in the center, he would be satisfied no matter what, and could even turn the tide of the game!
Yi Zheng naturally couldn't just let Li Junhe come and kill him, so he directly attacked and ate him. Faced with the order, Li Junhe could only turn towards the outside.

"The change that Elder Ke suggested is to continue fighting downwards, but the changes are just too complicated."

To be fair, Yi Zheng feels that the Mi Dao is very useful when facing most people because I know that in most situations you are completely unaware of, so it's basically a no-brainer.

But sometimes you can't be sure, after all, this thing is really that complicated, so complicated that it's inhuman.

Even chess players in the age of artificial intelligence, with AI guidance and having memorized countless variations, still frequently fall victim to attacks in official games.

There's no way around it, it's too complicated! There are just too many changes!

There are so many that they are truly beyond our control.

This is Mi Dao!

"Therefore, it must be under my control!"

Move 51, Black cuts.

"It wasn't Ai's first choice, but it perfectly fits his style, and it was a very tricky move."

Watching this move from the sidelines, Mr. Ke couldn't help but say something.

Yi Zheng still believes that even artificial intelligence is not invincible. He always thinks about adding a touch of 'humanity' outside the framework of AI.

"What's above AI? You're such an idiot."

However, there is only one correct way to solve this problem. If this method cannot be found, Li Junhe's game will be over.

The only right choice is to jump!

The tricky part is that there is only one correct way to play this move.

When faced with numerous options and limited time, this approach is extremely risky.

Lee Jun-hyuk looked at the chessboard, now facing a major test.

He could see the only correct jump that Master Ke mentioned.

But it wasn't just this step; he saw so many changes that he couldn't say which one was correct.

Demanding that humans instantly find the only way to survive among numerous choices is something only the devil would do.

Moreover, that leap is extremely risky. It's one thing to see it coming, but whether you dare to take the leap is another.

This would create an extremely complex situation of mutual attacks between the two sides.

With his time running out, Li Junhe really didn't dare to make that move.

Hearing the timer start to alarm, Li Junhe made a move with a slight panic.

Move 52, White captures.

"Oh no, we're doomed!"

Looking at this step on the computer screen, Mr. Ke clapped his hands.

What's this called again?

Goodbye.

A brilliant light flashed in Yi Zheng's eyes! The prey had finally stepped into the final, most deadly trap! Without any hesitation, his fingers shot out like lightning—

Move 53, Black, extend!

Now Li Junhe can only press outwards, because if Li Junhe dares to attack from above, Yi Zheng in the middle has the means to attack from the middle, directly turning the tables and surrounding him.

However, Yi Zheng's calculations were far more profound. Even if Li Junhe pressed down, Yi Zheng would still manage to win in the middle!

Li Junhe's gaze swept across the center, his mind went blank for a moment, as if all the blood in his body had been drained, and his face turned as pale as paper.

He instinctively raised one hand to cover his face, a textbook example of remorse.

It’s over! It's all over!

He realized that he couldn't escape by running, because Yi Zheng wouldn't keep calling for food if he ran after him; instead, he would definitely try to grab it from above.

This completely encircles you from above, rendering your attempts to attack from the outside ineffective, creating an unsolvable trap in the local area.

It's impossible to manage both sides equally; in this case, collapse is the only possible outcome in the localized area.

Li Junhe had no choice but to attack from above.

Yi Zheng, on the other hand, was like the most shrewd executioner, his blade falling swiftly and decisively.

Move 57, Black captures.

Yi Zheng deftly lifted each white piece from the board, producing a crisp sound. In the center, a colossal, impenetrable, deeply rooted, and powerfully influential super "flower" composed entirely of black pieces instantly bloomed!
"It has ended!"

Even the quiet teacher couldn't help but exclaim at this moment.

There was nothing he could do; he could see that Li Junhe was no longer capable, though he didn't know exactly why.

However, he could see that Black was now leading by at least twenty points, possibly even thirty.

After all, the power of the giant flower that Yi Zhengzhong has created is comparable to the combined power of the little boy and the fat man!

This is no longer a flower, but an incredibly huge, rooted tree!

Li Junhe knew there was no way to turn the tide, but with time still remaining, he dealt with the situation as if he were just handing over a bill.

Even if he remains calm, he still needs time to recover his composure in the face of today's situation.

After the time limit expired, upon hearing the countdown, Lee Jun-hyuk picked up two white stones and placed them gently, yet with immense weight, in the lower right corner of the board, his movements slow yet resolute.

At this point, Yi Zheng had only used up half an hour of his time.

All the chess fans outside the venue fell silent instantly. Whether in the online live broadcast room or the on-site viewing room, all the chess fans who were paying attention to this "world war" fell into a deathly silence. The air seemed to freeze at that moment.

Because they did not expect that this world war would end so abruptly and unexpectedly.

There was no epic battle of hundreds of hands as expected, no breathtaking half-point reversal.

There was only one precise, efficient, and almost ruthless massacre.

A match ignited by a three-pointer, culminating in a fatal blow from an unprecedented flying knife.

The dramatic, almost absurd ending left almost everyone speechless.

All the noise, predictions, and analyses fall silent before these mere sixty-five moves.

Sixty-five moves, and it was over in just sixty-five moves?
The root of it all seems to point to that highly controversial opening—

Do three!
