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

Chapter 395 We are the champions!
Of course, these are just jokes. The Moral Conduct Award is theoretically given to contestants who participate in the competition diligently, but whose performance... has huge room for improvement.

Essentially, it's a consolation prize, something that applies universally.

For example, when you really don't know what to say to compliment someone, men usually get a heartfelt "You're an honest person," while women are delighted with a "You have a lucky face." As for athletes battling it out on the field? The standard answer must be uniform and resounding—"You have excellent sportsmanship."

To be honest, looking at the several trophies piled up on the table, Yi Zheng really wanted to win a sportsmanship award, since he had never won a sportsmanship award in any competition so far.

After all, Yi Zheng has never been associated with being harmless since his debut.

However, lacking such a thing is a regret in life.

For stamp collectors with obsessive-compulsive tendencies, it's incredibly frustrating to find yourself missing an R card after collecting all the SSRs, no matter how hard you try.

"My resume is missing just this little thing to embellish it; it makes it seem like one of the three great regrets in life..."

Yi Zheng stared at the remaining afterimages of the few trophies left on the tray of the hostess in the distance, clicked his tongue, and muttered to himself, "Not perfect, not perfect at all!"

However, Ethan and the other victims must have found this completely unacceptable. They thought, "Don't you even think about how you are when you're playing chess? You're targeting us and doing all sorts of psychologically damaging things!"

How dare you demand morality and ethics?! Do you even have any morals?!

Looking at the trophies that filled Yi Zheng's desk, Old Ke couldn't help but complain, "I've won all of these, but I've never won them all at once."

Coach Ke only remembers winning the MVP and Best Player awards together once, and the Best Newcomer award was years ago, not to mention the most wins and winning streaks.

Yi Zheng's ability to win so many awards at once is truly unprecedented and unparalleled.

After all, it's very difficult for someone to reach this level within just three years of joining the world's top league. If someone had this level of skill, they would probably have won the Best Newcomer award long ago.

"Wow, that's awesome! A top-tier league, world-class Go..."

Old Ke couldn't help but glance at the contestants around him; it was truly a vibrant scene of life and everything thriving! It was just that there was relatively little black.

After all the individual awards were completed, the most important event came: the team ranking awards ceremony. The top eight teams received prize money and trophies, starting from the eighth place.

Yi Zheng was finally able to sit down and eat something, but when he packed his things into his bag, he was stunned when he saw what was on the table.

"Damn it! You didn't leave me a single bite of food!"

Yi Zheng looked at the empty plates on the table and wanted to strangle the others: "Especially you, Fatty! What are you doing on our team's table!"

Miao Jun shook his head helplessly upon hearing this: "The food portions here in Europe are too small! This stuff they gave me isn't even enough for two bites. After I finish eating over there, I'll have to come here to see if they have any left."

Honestly, it's not even as good as a big feast in the countryside; at least you could eat your fill. They're hyping it up as "melts in your mouth," but while it does melt, it has absolutely no flavor.

"..." Yi Zheng didn't know what to say after hearing this. He could only say that white food was indeed not suitable for Chinese people's tastes.

Yun Linglei also nodded in agreement, "That's right, you're still bothered by these things on the table? You just won so many awards! You should treat us to dinner!"
Don't worry, everyone. We'll wait for Yi Zheng's situation and then find a tire-themed restaurant.

One jar of caviar per person, otherwise the foreigners next door might think we can't afford it.

Yi Zheng wanted to complain when he heard this. When did Senior Brother Yun pick up this bad habit of quoting movie lines to show off?

Yun Linglei would probably be surprised to hear this, thinking, "Isn't this something I learned from you?"

It can only be said that the Kelvin virus has shown signs of human-to-human transmission.

However, when it comes to eating, Yi Zheng still plans to go out for a meal after the awards ceremony, not just to celebrate, but because he didn't get enough to eat here.

While the awards were being presented on stage, people were chatting offstage. After Yi Zheng and his group talked for a while, they finally arrived at the highlight of the evening: the award ceremony for the champion.

Looking at the words "Champion - Muye Fox Team" on the big screen, Yun Linglei felt extremely excited. He had been participating in the top league for almost ten years, and finally won a championship! It wasn't easy!
Yi Zheng didn't feel much. He used to look forward to it, but after obtaining it, he didn't seem to feel much anymore.

However, Yi Zheng still seemed very happy in the post-match interview: "I'm very excited and happy right now."

Well, it was a very enjoyable game of chess, and I feel that my skills have indeed improved again.

Playing against Ethan is quite enjoyable. Every time I play against him, I feel like I perform exceptionally well, so I especially look forward to our matches. It feels like the training has been incredibly effective.

Upon hearing this, the others couldn't help but turn their heads away. Was Yi Zheng really not afraid of being hunted down in Europe?

"At the time, I really felt that this match would be the decisive one, with the main player winning 4-4."

The main reason is that once we catch Ethan, I feel like we should definitely win the championship. I don't think the other players have a very high chance of winning against Ethan. I feel like I can counter him.

So I still think this championship should probably be won by our team, Muye Fox. And most people don't really have high hopes for us, a team with many newcomers, and none of us even have all nine-dan players.

It seems that we are indeed in a favorable position, with both the right timing, location, and people on our side; our strength and luck have all come together.

I feel like I've revealed my true colors, but I did open the champagne, yeah, right, right, the main thing is that I didn't say I was going to win at the beginning, but I didn't expect to win in the end, it was an unexpected surprise.

So, we did better than expected, and even better than anticipated. So, tonight we're going to open some champagne, haha. We definitely need to find a place to have a good meal. Can anyone recommend a good restaurant?

Anyway, I feel that everyone is more tolerant of us now. People would think that we are arrogant when we talk normally, and that we can say whatever we want after we win, right?

If we had lost today, they would have said we were stronger and luckier than us. But we won today, so we're still very happy. We can say whatever we want about them.
