I am the devil, I only know how to trade.

Since she didn't know how the game had progressed to this point, she couldn't assess the skill level of the two players.

In the current situation, the haters are in the right place!

If the black pieces continue to bet, then the black pieces have already won...

Snapped!

As the white stone was placed, Honinbo Shuuji frowned slightly.

What the heck is this move? It wasn't exactly necessary, was it?

To win, you have to get down...

Wait, at this point, the only thing the black guy can do is block!

Sai took a deep breath, placed his piece, and blocked!

pat!

Another white piece landed on the board.

Sai looked at the chessboard carefully, let out a long breath, and bowed deeply: "I lost."

He had never lost when playing black before, which is partly due to the differences between ancient and modern chess.

At that time, Black already had a significant advantage.

After arriving in the modern era, he gradually learned the modern rules of chess, with black and white pieces. With the calculation of big data, these rules are almost fair, yet he still has never lost in the modern world.

It was his apprentice who saw through the divine hand, which led to his disappearance.

In that game, if Meijin Toya Yukihiro had used a divine move, he would have lost. But during the game, it was definitely not as clear to outsiders as it was to the two players.

His undefeated record in this era was ended by the devil in front of him, who looked like just a tavern owner.

"You didn't lose shamefully; you lost to the God of Games, the guy who's good at all games." Luo Feng's gaze remained fixed on the television: "Awake?"

"What do you mean losing to a god isn't shameful? What were you thinking with your last move? Playing it here in the middle of the game just doesn't make any sense!" Honinbo Shuuji pointed at the board: "This is simply, simply..."

"A divine move!" Fujiwara Sai stared at Luo Feng with a fanatical expression. "This is a divine move!"

"Play a game with me. I don't know the order, and I can't see these things. If it's because my skill level isn't high enough, then this is normal." Honinbo Shuuai said anxiously, "Can you play a game with me?"

A divine move—that's what every chess player strives for.

The concept of "empty silver stones" has now reached the edge of Shogi, or at least its shadow can be seen.

Fujiwara no Sai and Honinbo Shuuai have clearly been pursuing this as well, and they are close to reaching that level themselves.

"I'll play with you!" Sai had been following her for so long, so naturally he wanted to play a game with her.

Luo Feng was immediately speechless. You guys think this is a chess room? Don't forget, you still need to sign a contract.

He was about to speak when he heard a dazed voice.

"Shumai-sensei, what are you still doing here?" Sora Ginko yawned as she came out.

I have to go to school today; the holidays are almost here.

To be honest, with her absenteeism rate, it doesn't matter whether she goes to school or not; she has no interest in studying at all.

"I need to confirm whether that move was truly a divine one. There's no more effective way to verify someone's skill level than this." Honinbo Shuuji pointed to the Go board: "Let's play a game!"

"Yes." Fujiwara Sai nodded.

Luo Feng glanced at Kong Yinzi, then pulled her close and kissed her on the cheek.

Fine, for your sake, let them finish signing before discussing the contract.

"ah!"

Kong Yinzi blushed deeply and ran away in a flash.

A pleased smile appeared on Luo Feng's face.

With a clear mind and a firm belief in one's feelings for money, there's no need to resist it.

All that's left is to try having your still-human subordinates cheat people and gain double or even triple pleasure!

Chapter 460 Luo Feng's Mission

Soon, the two began to set up their pieces and play a game.

Sai has just acquired a body and feels great right now. He feels confident that he can win ten games, let alone one.

Of course, he only has a human body and cannot withstand that kind of high intensity. Three consecutive games, none of which were easy wins, were a bit too much of a burden for him.

Honinbo Shuu had just sobered up, so the two were pretty much evenly matched.

It's difficult to have a showdown between top-tier opponents, as long as both sides are at a certain level.

With each move, the situation quickly became clear for both players, confirming that the other was no pushover.

Honinbo Shuuji looked solemn.

She had never seen this master before, but her playing style seemed to be familiar from a chess manual from a long time ago, maybe twenty years ago.

The game between the former Meijin, Touya Kouyo, and an online Go player, SAI. Touya Kouyo was already quite old at that time and had long since retired from the Go world, but his legend still lives on.

At that time, SAI's true identity was unknown, yet he defeated all the masters online, remaining an enigma.

At that time, Honinbo Shuu was only a few years old, and it was unexpected that he would meet someone whose playing style was so similar to that person's.

His Go moves are imaginative and unconventional, lacking depth but full of freedom.

Normal chess players stick to their own strengths and create advantages by playing according to their own style. This is also an invisible shackle that makes it harder for chess players to discover the divine move.

But this person might actually be the one to find the divine touch.

Why has such a strong player never appeared before?

"Phew... I lost."

Three hours later, Honinbo Shuuji resigned.

"Why have you never participated in a competition?" Honinbo Shuuai looked at Sai with a puzzled expression.

"I... can only really play Go today," Sai said in a low voice.

Honinbo Shuumi thought for a moment, then suddenly realized.

Do you have enough chess skills, but are unable to participate in the competition for various reasons?

Not all chess players are professionals. There are many hidden talents among ordinary people, and many people with good chess skills simply don't have time to participate in competitions.

"So what are your plans for the future?" Honinbo Shuumi asked.

"My future plans..." As he looked at Honinbo Shuu, he said, "I want to obtain the title of Honinbo."

Of the seven titles in Japanese Go, Honinbo ranks after Kisei and Meijin, and Sai seems to have an obsession with this title.

"Tsk, so you think I'm easy to bully just because I lost one game to you? Don't underestimate women, you bastard!" Honinbo Shuuu said menacingly, "Next year, I'll wait until you achieve your professional ranking, then challenge me!"

“Okay!” Sai nodded seriously.

"Leave me your contact information. I'll get my revenge on you once I sober up." Honinbo Shuumi took out her phone.

Sai blinked innocently; he didn't have a phone...

pat!

A cell phone was thrown into his arms.

"You can use this from now on." Luo Feng didn't take it seriously.

"Okay, thank you, sir." Sai opened his phone and handed it to Honinbo Shuu.

"what is it call?"

"Fujiwara no Sai".

"Oh, Fujiwara, SAI..."

Honinbo Hideaki took his phone, made a call to his own phone, and sent himself an email before finally confirming Sai's contact information.

She's in a daze right now, all she wants to do is sleep, and she's already forgotten the meaning of her name.

"Oh right, Gin's boyfriend, you used to play a divine move with him?" Honinbo Shuuai suddenly remembered.

He defeated himself; he is indeed very strong. But what about this guy sitting here so leisurely?

He used a divine move against a player like Sai!

According to Yinzi, he is also very good at chess, and Yinzi developed such chess skills only because of his nightly encouragement.

"Well, I didn't download it myself, so just consider it cheating with software," Luo Feng said with a sigh.

"Huh? What software can download this? AlphaGo? Do you know how much it costs to start that kind of thing once?" Honinbo Shu was stunned.

If a machine makes a move, can it still be considered a divine move?

Machines can make mistakes, and they can't always win.

At least the player in front of us might not necessarily be worse than that kind of artificial intelligence.

"In short, this game wasn't played by me against him. My understanding of Go is limited to knowing how to play." Luo Feng yawned.

"..." Honinbo Shuuai didn't know what to say, but thinking about it, it made sense. If someone with such high skill in shogi were to have such high skill in go, he would be a monster.

"Phew, I'll go back and clear my head first, then I'll come back to find you." Honinbo Shuuji wiped his face and walked outside.

In her view, the monk may run away but the temple cannot; she has obtained Sai's contact information, and this boyfriend of hers is not going to run away either, since she has money anyway.

Luo Feng watched her departing figure and shook his head.

Forget it, that would make Yinzi sad.

He looked at Fujiwara no Sai and smiled slightly.

"Sign it, you've lost!"

The contract was handed to Sai.

He knew this body wasn't so easy to take; there's no such thing as a free lunch. Did he really think he could just take it away after winning a wish? They could easily take it back.

He wants to play chess, so he has to sign the contract.
