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

Chapter 318 Prodigal Son

"It should be my advantage... I guess."

Yi Zheng looked at the image on his phone screen and fell into deep thought. In his opinion, he was indeed not bad.

Could it be that Professor Ke is so confident in curing orphans?
Although Yi Zheng was full of admiration for Ke Lao's ability to treat orphans, sometimes you have to say that once you accumulate to a certain level, no matter how strong your skills are, they are useless, right?

To put it bluntly, Yi Zheng felt that his forces were at least 100,000 troops. If Elder Ke dared to invade, it would be equivalent to him leading 800 men deep into his 100,000-strong army.

Let alone an army of 100,000, even if it were 100,000 pigs, you couldn't catch them all!

Not to mention that the leader is someone as skilled in military strategy as myself.

In any case, the odds are 100,000 against 800!
The advantage is mine!

However, Yi Zheng did not rush to express his opinion in the middle. Instead, he first finalized the position and took advantage of every possible benefit.

He wanted to see what Old Ke was really up to! Did he really have that much guts?
If he can withstand the external pressure from the central government, I'll eat the cake on this table!
Old Master Ke's move this time was extremely powerful. Yi Zheng even felt as if he had been possessed. Could a soul be taken away again? Who had replaced his cheat ability?
After Yi Zheng finished clicking on the upper right corner, he leaned back a bit. Ke Lao's move was also very simple: he simply rinsed, hit, and stuck the upper right corner in place.

"It's my first move again."

Yi Zheng felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, every time he played chess with Master Ke, he was always the one who was behind. Even if he tried his best and lost, he could not get the first move. But today, he had the first move in several games in a row.
Honestly, it's taking me a while to adjust.

Yi Zheng suddenly felt a little scared. Could something have happened to Elder Ke? Could this be his last game? Was he deliberately losing to him to end his mission?

What a joke! I haven't even won the Asian championship yet. Theoretically speaking, it's not even halfway through the novel. How can I let my cheat system go offline at this time?
Even if the author were crazy, they couldn't have done something like that!

Yi Zheng couldn't help but ask with concern, "Old Ke? Are you feeling a little unwell? Why don't you rest for a bit and we can go again another day?"

Although the soul has never shown any signs of being in a bad state, we still have to be careful.

I haven't even finished learning all your skills yet! Master, you can't leave me!

Upon hearing this, Old Ke couldn't help but curl his lip: "Uncomfortable my foot! Don't even think about running away! You're going to die today! There's no way you can escape! Don't try to play the coward with me."

"You little brat, let me tell you, you're done for. If you surrender now, you'll lose half your money."

Yi Zheng couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. He could concede defeat on AlphaGo's account anytime he wanted.

And you can only watch, like the incompetent husband in some movie, unable to do anything.

Then add a line: "Yi Huang is invincible, I'm impressed. It's my tragedy to be born in the same era as you, AlphaGo. From now on, I will follow your lead."

The next day, news reports stated that AlphaGo was their lapdog.

Is it easy to do? It's incredibly easy!

But why not do that?
Men have pride!

However, this idea was just something Yi Zheng thought about in his mind; he would never actually do it.

But Yi Zheng looked at the chessboard and felt equally confused. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything wrong with his moves. Besides, he had the first move. Even if his opponent was Master Ke, Yi Zheng felt that the odds were at most 50/50.

However, since Master Ke felt there was no problem, Yi Zheng didn't care and continued to make moves.

Old Ke couldn't help but shake his head, lamenting that Yi Zheng was such a spendthrift; how could I have so easily surrounded the upper right corner?

If you were ruthless enough, you could still limit my ground play from above, so even if I were in the lead, the lead would be limited.

But now, Ke Lao estimates his winning percentage to be around 80%. What does 80% mean for Black?
Under the Chinese number system rules, with Black receiving 3 and 3/4 points, the initial winning probability determined by artificial intelligence is around 40% or even slightly lower.

With a current win rate of 80%, that means the initial win rate has doubled.

However, Yi Zheng felt it was still a 50/50 situation, and other top players watching the game even thought that Yi Zheng should have the advantage.

Their thinking was remarkably consistent: they placed all the blame on the central basket.

In their view, with the Great Wall in the center and the cooperation on the left, no matter how strong AlphaGo is, it is impossible for it to defeat Yi Zheng in the center!
Ke Lao could naturally see this as well, not to mention that after taking over everything on the left, the battle in the center was Yi Zheng's only way out.

However, Yi Zheng didn't immediately engage in combat. He also left a small mark in the upper right corner, leaving something for future use.

Yi Zheng once again gained the upper hand, and he seemed unusually happy today.

When will I be able to consistently have the first move in front of Master Ke?

Could it be that my touch and form were truly explosive today? Or has my skill level really improved to a point that I haven't even realized it myself?

But I didn't feel anything obvious. Everything felt normal, but it also felt very unreal.

Is the coup d'état happening today?

Yi Zheng couldn't help but calm himself down. No matter what, he had to stay rational, otherwise even if he had the upper hand, it could be turned around. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened.

Yi Zheng stared intently at the chessboard and began to make judgments.

Now, if we add a move in the middle, it will be very thick, but because of the fixed pattern in the upper left corner, there will still be air leakage in the two lanes below the upper left corner.

Moreover, if Elder Ke makes the first move from below, and he seizes a crucial position in the main arena, Yi Zheng feels that he is in considerable danger, especially since his external influence would be even more difficult to exert.

Thinking of this, Yi Zheng quickly assessed the situation and then moved to the lower left corner to defend it with a single jump.

"Heh, now it's my turn. 'External influence'? More like 'external loss'! It's leaking air on both sides, it's hilarious!"

Without any hesitation, Old Ke rushed out and tore a gap in the center. However, the gap was not very serious at the moment, but the more important thing was to leave a gap for future use.

Once he was ready, Mr. Ke didn't hesitate at all.

Move 65, Black invades!
Now, it's my turn to show off my skills!
