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

Chapter 36 Become famous
"Boss Yi, this is so awesome! He used the Heavenly Demon Great Transformation to defeat the successor of the Heavenly Demon Great Transformation! What a minotaur! It's so exciting to be in front of my husband!"

Listening to his roommate Xiong Chong's vicious words, Yi Zheng was a little speechless. Where did you learn these words from?
I am a well-known pure love warrior, please don't put these things on me.

How do you think the Pure Love Warrior knows the meaning of these words?

Yi Zheng said that it was all Mr. Ke's fault. He had nothing to do and suddenly came up with one or two outrageous remarks, stuffing strange knowledge into his head.

Mr. Ke is fully responsible!
"It's been over a week. What's the point of talking about this?"

Yi Zheng didn't take this matter too seriously at all. There was nothing he could do about it. The age gap was too big.

Kuroki Ryuji is only about ten years old, and Yi Zheng is already over fifteen years old. It seems that the difference of about five years is not that big, but in Go, they are actually two generations to some extent.

It would be fine if Kuroki Ryuji regarded Yi Zheng as a strong rival, but if Yi Zheng regarded the other party as a strong rival, then the growth cycle would be a bit too long.

Even if Kuroki Ryuji grows at the fastest speed, it will probably take him about ten years to reach the level of a top professional.

Ten years later, Yi Zheng will be almost 26 years old. It sounds like he is not very old, and theoretically he is in his prime.

But in reality, theoretically, at the age of 26, one has entered the second half of his career, and at the age of 30, he will enter a period of obvious decline.

Theoretically, it is impossible for a player to become more skilled as he gets older in Go, because Go tests calculation and physical strength the most, which are closely related to youth.

Even if there are one or two people with reverse growth cycles, they are extremely rare cases.

If Yi Zheng wants to achieve great success in the professional world, he must grow faster rather than following a routine approach.

At the very least, you should set your sights on peers who have already made a name for themselves in the professional world, or even those who are older and have achieved more.

If Kuroki Ryuji knew what Yi Zheng was thinking, he would probably jump up and hit Yi Zheng's knee immediately.

I regard you as my rival, but what do you regard me as? You scumbag!
Xiong Chong looked at Yi Zheng, who looked nonchalant, and lowered his voice and said, "How can it be boring? You don't know that your victory over the talented young man from Japan has become famous!"

"what?"

Yi Zheng was stunned when he heard this. How wide could the news of a match between two non-professionals be?
Maybe it was because Yi Zheng had learned too many new things from Master Ke that he didn't care about the simple new changes of Tianmo Dahua, but in fact, it had already attracted the attention of many professions.

Not to mention, Kuroki Ryuji himself has a special identity, and the game between the two has taken on the special nature of a confrontation between China and Japan.

It seems natural that it would spread.

Just as Xiong Chong said, many people from other chess academies are already paying attention to this game.

"Kuroki Ryuji? I've heard of him. He's the younger brother of the current Honinbo of Japan."

In the capital, at the Jingwei Chess Academy in North China, Shi Yu, who ranked first in Class A, nodded when he heard the question asked by the person next to him.

There's no way around it. The Japanese are really good at marketing and giving nicknames, and they're very jumpy.

Not to mention that Kuroki Ryuji has a strong family background and an older brother who can serve as a background. Anyone who knows a little about the new generation of Japanese Go will know him.

"He came to China to challenge some time ago and defeated three top players from Class A of Yunyi Chess Academy in a row."

Hearing this, Shi Yu just smiled slightly and said, "It seems that Yun Yi's level this year is quite average."

Among the seven major chess academies in China, if we were to say which two have the highest level, they would definitely be the Jingwei Chess Academy located in the capital of North China, and the Yunyi Chess Academy in Lin'an, East China.

In terms of level, the other five chess academies are definitely slightly inferior to these two.

There is no way. The economic base determines the superstructure. There is no need to say more about the strength of these two places.

Therefore, the two places will inevitably compete secretly to prove that their side is the number one Go academy in China, so as to attract more people to study there.

At present, Jingwei Chess Academy is obviously superior to Yunyi Chess Academy.

There is no way. Jiang Mobai, the current holder of the title of Contemporary Go Master in China, is from Jingwei Chess Academy.

The weight of a number one player is enough to outweigh many other things. However, even so, both sides will inevitably compete in various areas, and the number of players who are promoted to the rank each year is naturally a key area of ​​competition for both sides. After all, this determines how much new blood will join their side.

"but……"

"But what?"

Hearing the obvious big turn of events, Shi Yu asked in some surprise.

The person next to him cleared his throat and said, "Legend has it that at this time, a man suddenly appeared and unleashed a completely new transformation that had never been seen before in the Heavenly Demonic Transformation, defeating the challenger Kuroki Ryuji from Japan."

"A brand new transformation of the Heavenly Demon? Show it off for us to see?"

When Shi Yu heard this, he immediately became excited. He didn't care about the fact that the other party defeated Kuroki Ryuji.

In Shi Yu's opinion, he has already reached a professional level. Last year, he withdrew from the competition halfway because he was hospitalized due to diarrhea caused by eating something bad. Otherwise, he would have become a professional long ago.

Except for those old monsters who would never leave the Novice Village, Shi Yu would never be afraid of anyone below the professional level.

If Kuroki Ryuji comes here to challenge you, Shi Yu, you are absolutely confident that you can defeat him.

But if there are any new changes to the pattern, Shi Yu will definitely be interested.

Looking at the new changes made by his classmates on the chessboard, Shi Yu couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Interesting, is there a hidden ultimate move?"

Many professional players will secretly research some new changes in private, but they will not show them in normal times. Instead, they will wait until the professional arena to release them in one fell swoop to maximize their profits.

"If I had encountered this thing for the first time, I might have suffered a real loss. It's a pity, this is probably all he has.

But it's quite interesting. I wonder if I'll run into him at the Golden Scale Cup?"

Shi Yu's focus was naturally on the changes in the demon at the beginning, and he didn't pay attention to the subsequent progress.

In his opinion, after gaining such a big advantage at the start, as long as the strength gap is not obvious, isn't it natural for Yi Zheng to win? He can't see how profound his strength is.

The same thing was happening in several other chess academies at the same time. Some people thought it was awesome, while others thought it was just a temporary success and would be gone after the big show.

However, some people feel differently.

"The latest changes in Tianmo Dahua are really interesting. Are you saying that this change was thought up by a child?

Yi Zheng? I seem to remember him as that little genius from a few years ago, right? I wonder if he hasn't become a professional yet?

A young man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses sat on the sofa in the office of Yunyi Chess Academy, looking at the chess records in his hand, and asked with a smile.

"Ling Lei, I know you're usually very busy, but this is definitely worth your attention."

"Of course, we must pay attention to some new changes in the three major Go patterns.

I just didn't expect that a kid from our chess academy could come up with this idea, and I became the student."

Yun Linglei looked at the chess record in his hand and said with a smile that as the holder of one of the seven major titles in China, the Divine Calculation, he had to learn from a student who had not yet become a professional.

"However, you all focus on the changes in the Heavenly Demon, but isn't the real interest the latter part?"

"It's interesting. There are a lot of ideas, but I don't know whether they are right or wrong."

As a professional ninth-dan, his sensitivity to chess is undoubtedly among the strongest among people. Yun Linglei undoubtedly sees a deeper level than other people who pay attention, that is, the changes in Yi Zheng's chess style.

Because what Yi Zheng was learning was a brand new way of thinking given to him by Mr. Ke, a unique way of playing chess from another world.

However, Yun Linglei is not sure whether these new ideas, which seem to be unable to be called a system, are good or bad for the time being. He can only say that they are somewhat inspiring.

"What an interesting kid."
