Kong Yinzi recalled losing more than ten games to Dongfang Chen a few days ago. At that time, he told himself that he already had the strength of a ninth dan.
At the time, Kong Yinzi didn't believe it, but the current situation is the best proof.
Two minutes later, Kiyotaki Kosuke's forehead was covered in sweat. He slowly opened his eyes, but they were full of confusion.
He looked at the chessboard again. Although he could still struggle, it was no longer necessary.
Kiyotaki Kosuke let out a long sigh, a relieved smile on his face: "I... admit defeat!"
Although he lost the game, and as the master, he lost to his disciple, he was very happy.
The student surpasses the teacher!
"Thank you for your mercy, Master," Dongfang Chen replied cooperatively.
Kiyotaki Kosuke waved his hand: "Alright, a loss is a loss, I won't deny it. Xiao Chen, congratulations, you've graduated!"
Dongfang Chen: "Even after I graduate, I am still a disciple trained by my master."
Kiyotaki Kosuke nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Katsura, help me up..."
"Okay." Kiyotaki Keika hurriedly went over and helped him up.
"Xiao Chen, go ahead and teach those arrogant bastards a lesson!"
Kiyotaki Kosuke said something, and with Kiyotaki Keika's support, he walked away unsteadily.
"Okay, keep it on me."

Chapter 14 I will miss your lap pillow!
"Senior brother Si Guoyi, you have already defeated Master!"
Kuzuryuu Yaichi looked at Dongfang Chen in surprise.
No wonder I lost so badly before; it turns out the gap in their strength has become so huge.
"People always grow, and as the senior, I definitely have to set a good example, right? Bayi, you should also work hard. With your talent, catching up with me is only a matter of time."
Dongfang Chen patted him on the shoulder encouragingly.
You should know that this guy was originally destined to grow to the pinnacle of the shogi world; becoming stronger was only a matter of time.
"Yes, thank you for your kind words, senior brother."
Kuzuryuu Yaichi smiled shyly.
Dongfang Chen: "Alright, it's getting late, it's about time to wash up and go to bed."
"Okay, I'll go wash up first."
Nine-Headed Dragon Eight glanced at Sora Silver, who was still sitting to the side, and wisely left first.
"Yinzi, what's wrong? Are you unhappy because you didn't receive my New Year's gift?" Dongfang Chen went over and sat down next to her.
Kong Yinzi kept her eyes fixed on the chessboard, without even turning her head: "Stay away from me, you idiot."
"Are you still angry that Sister Guixiang provided me with a lap pillow?"
"Shut up, die..."
Dongfang Chen was both amused and exasperated. He reached out and took one of her hands, which was resting on her knee: "Don't rush. I know Yinzi is eager to become a professional Go player as soon as possible, but Go is never something that can be achieved overnight. I will accompany you, step by step, to help you become a professional Go player."
Dongfang Chen understood that Kong Yinzi was actually seeing the gap between her and him widening and wanted to close the distance as much as possible.
In short, she felt somewhat inferior.
Looking back, when she had only been a disciple for a few days, she saw Dongfang Chen always hanging around her and thought he would also play shogi.
So he proposed a game of chess, and Dongfang Chen did not refuse.
As a result, Dongfang Chen was still a complete novice who didn't even understand the basic rules of shogi, and was demoted to a lower rank by Kong Yinzi at the time.
She even mocked her, saying things like, "She's two years older than me, but she's not as good at chess as me."
Being looked down upon by a tiny little kid, I was determined to get my revenge.
That very evening, he formally became a disciple of Kiyotaki Kosuke and began learning shogi from him.
It's worth mentioning that Kuzuryu Yaichi also came to become a disciple a few days later, so Kuzuryu Yaichi is the junior disciple.
Later, as she grew older, her two male junior classmates gradually caught up with her in shogi, and even surpassed her...
Even now, both Kuzuryuu Yaichi and Dongfang Chen have reached a level that she might never be able to achieve in her lifetime.
It's not just a difference in talent; women also have a disadvantage in shogi.
Gradually, she also developed feelings of powerlessness and inferiority.
As her closest junior brother, Dongfang Chen naturally had already sensed it.
By now, her feelings of inferiority have only intensified.
Kong Yinzi glanced at Dongfang Chen's large hand holding hers, and pursed her lips: "Who asked you to accompany me? You're just being presumptuous."
She pulled her hand away and ran off quickly...
"That's not being honest at all, even though your ears are bright red."
Dongfang Chen smiled and shook his head; he didn't care about Kong Yinzi's attitude.
Having known her for so many years, Dongfang Chen probably knows her better than she does herself.
……
January 1st to January 3rd is New Year's Day in Japan.
On January 1st, Kuzuryu and Sora Ginko went home. They each had their own families, and Kiyotaki Kosuke was just their master.
Dongfang Chen was adopted by the Qinglong family and grew up in the Qinglong family, so this place can also be considered his home.
During the New Year period, as a 9-dan master in the shogi world, Kiyotaki Kosuke naturally received many visits from dignitaries, relatives and friends, and this newly crowned Dragon King also received some small gifts.
After staying for a week, Dongfang Chen was about to return to Tokyo, and Qinglong Keika once again saw him off at the station.
Dongfang Chen waved goodbye to Qinglong Guixiang inside the car: "Well then, Guixiang-jie, see you again in a while. I'll miss your lap pillow!"
"Honestly, you're such a grown-up and you're still thinking about lap pillows every day. Aren't you ashamed?" Kiyotaki Keika said coquettishly.
"No matter how old I am, Sister Guixiang will always be Sister Guixiang."
"Okay, okay, you're so sweet-talking. I'll be going now, come back often when you have time!"
After saying that, Kiyotaki Keika started the car and drove away.
Dongfang Chen watched him go for a few seconds before walking into the station.
After another round of travel, he returned to Tokyo three hours later.
As for why he specifically came to Tokyo, it's because living alone is more liberating, and he also has his own ulterior motives.
January is the coldest month in Tokyo throughout the year, with temperatures sometimes dropping below zero.
So he took a taxi home. Who would just stand around starving?
He got off the bus at a convenience store near his apartment. He hadn't been home for a week and didn't have any decent groceries. He bought some to take home so he wouldn't have to come out again.
"welcome!"
The shop assistant called out to him, he nodded, and went to the ingredients section.
Chapter 15 Who are the working warriors?! (Seeking flowers, monthly tickets, and ratings)
Dongfang Chen, who had selected a bunch of ingredients, went to the counter to pay. When he looked up, he saw a familiar face again.
He greeted her, "Miss shop assistant, we meet again."
The shop assistant paused for a moment, glanced at Dongfang Chen, and smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Haha, yes, we meet again..."
The shop assistant had her hair tied in a neat ponytail, with a few wisps of hair framing her face. She had delicate features and was quite cute. She was wearing a convenience store apron.
Dongfang Chen thought for a moment and said, "This seems to be the fifth time? Or the sixth time? I've seen you working in a different place each time."
"Hmm, this should be the sixth time. Your total order is 24500 yen. Would you like to pay in cash or by card?"
While speaking, Aoyama Nanami's hands did not stop, quickly and skillfully completing the scanning and packaging of the goods.
"Cash, please!"
Dongfang Chen casually took out three 10,000-yuan bills and handed them to her.
"Here's your change: 5500 yen."
"Okay. Let's get to know each other a little. My name is Dongfang Chen, and I'm currently a first-year high school student. What about you?" Dongfang Chen introduced himself.
"My name is Aoyama Nanami, and I am also a first-year high school student."
She readily gave her name.
"Okay, then I'll call you Aoyama-kun from now on. It's nice to meet you."
