I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 300 No wonder you have a private jet, because you own an airport.

Three days flew by, and the day finally arrived to go to North and South Korea for the competition.

Although there are still three days before the team competition starts, we need to arrive early and rest well at the hotel for two days to prepare for the upcoming team competition.

Early that morning, Yu Shao took a taxi to the Southern Chess Academy and went straight to the door of the training review room from a few days ago.

Yu Shao pushed open the door and a look of surprise appeared on his face when he saw the scene in the debriefing room.

In the debriefing room, besides Qin Lang, Gu Chuan, Le Haoqiang, and Su Yiming, there were also Xu Zijin, Wu Zhixuan, Wu Shuheng, Zheng Qin, and Fang Haoxin.

Besides the chess players Yu Shao knew, there were several other professional chess players, both men and women, in the review room. Yu Shao had met them at the chess academy but had never played against them and did not know their names.

At this moment, Su Yiming was playing chess with Fang Haoxin. Everyone around was focused on the game, until they heard the door being pushed open, and then they turned to look at the door.

"Yu Shao, you're here?"

Upon seeing that it was Yu Shao, Wu Zhixuan wrinkled her nose and whispered, "You're so late!"

Yu Shao walked to the chessboard, glanced at the game, and replied in a low voice, "There was a bit of traffic on the way today, so I'm late. But what are you all doing here?"

"We'll go to North and South Korea for fun, then watch the games and cheer you on!"

Wu Zhixuan said with a grin, "Aren't you surprised?"

"Aren't you going to have a match?"

Yu Shao was somewhat surprised and asked, "Why didn't you tell me before?"

"If I told you, would you call it a surprise?"

Wu Zhixuan shook her head, looking smug as if to say, "You wouldn't understand," and said with a smile, "Then of course I can't tell you."

"As for the competition, we'll be there for a week. We haven't had any competitions this week since we arrived, so we'll take this opportunity to visit the Korean Go Association for some exchanges."

Wu Zhixuan gave Yu Shao a peace sign, then a wink, and said with a smile, "A rare holiday!"

Looking at Wu Zhixuan like this, Yu Shao felt that Wu Zhixuan was really born cute, her sweetness level was indeed a bit too high, and he was charmed by her cuteness.

"Does the chess academy reimburse your airfare and accommodation?"

Yu Shao thought for a moment and then asked.

Before Wu Zhixuan could answer, Xu Zijin suddenly spoke up, her voice cold: "We'll pay for it ourselves."

"Yes, how could it be reimbursed? It can only be paid for out of pocket. Some people have even learned to answer this question first."

Wu Zhixuan glanced at Xu Zijin and snorted, "Don't some people ride on her private jet?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Zijing brushed her hair behind her ear and calmly said, "There's no need."

Wu Zhixuan's almond-shaped eyes widened suddenly, and she puffed out her cheeks in anger, saying sullenly, "Little sister, you really do have one?"

"You're only a year older than me."

Xu Zijin asked casually, "Speaking of which, you're almost nineteen, aren't you?"

"I just turned eighteen!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhixuan was furious. She had originally intended to adopt the demeanor of an older sister and teach Xu Zijin a lesson, but unexpectedly, Xu Zijin turned the tables on her!
Yu Shao found the scene rather amusing.

Ever since Xu Zijing beat Wu Zhixuan, the two have had a strained relationship, especially with online discussions about who is prettier, Wu Zhixuan or Xu Zijing, which has further worsened their relationship.

It's worth noting that before Xu Zijin became a professional Go player, she was the most dazzling female professional Go player at the Southern Go Academy, showered with affection. But now, half of her fans have switched their allegiance to Xu Zijin!
Although Wu Zhixuan has a good personality, how could a girl allow someone to say that another person is prettier than her? It would be fine if it were anyone else, but the person in question is Xu Zijin, who beat her at chess!

Especially recently, Xu Zijing and Wu Zhixuan played another game of Go in the Go Saint Tournament, and Wu Zhixuan lost to Xu Zijing again, which made their relationship even worse.

Although Wu Zhixuan had lost to Zheng Qin before and was very angry at the time, she forgot about it after only two days.

However, Wu Zhixuan still harbored resentment towards Xu Zijin.

Previously, when Wu Zhixuan played chess with him online, she even expressed the sentiment, "Since Wu was born, why was Xu born?" This shows how deep Wu Zhixuan's resentment towards Xu Zijin was.

Nowadays, Wu Zhixuan and Xu Zijin are showing signs of becoming irreconcilable enemies.

"Once you're eighteen, isn't that nineteen?" Xu Zijin asked again.

Hearing this, Wu Zhixuan's face turned red with anger. She opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know how to say it. Finally, she turned her head to look at Wu Shuheng.

Seeing his younger sister looking at him, Wu Shuheng kept his eyes down, clearly having no intention of getting involved. They were obviously siblings.

"No wonder he has a private jet."

Just then, Wu Zhixuan suddenly noticed Xu Zijin's fatal weakness. Her eyes lit up, and she proudly puffed out her chest, saying, "So you have a flat chest."

Xu Zijing's expression changed slightly, and she said coldly, "No wonder you're no match for me in chess."

"?"

Wu Zhixuan was confused, not knowing why Xu Zijin suddenly brought up the fact that she hadn't beaten her at chess.

After a moment, Wu Zhixuan finally realized that Xu Zijin was implying that she was all looks and no brains. She was so angry that her chest heaved violently and her fists clenched involuntarily.

"Ahem, why is Fang Haoxin playing chess with Su Yiming?"

Yu Shao sensed that Wu Zhixuan and Xu Zijin were about to start arguing, so he quickly changed the subject and asked.

"Hmph!" Wu Zhixuan snorted, glanced at Xu Zijin, and indicated that she wouldn't argue with Yu Shao because he was asking her a question, and that she was not someone who couldn't win an argument with him.

Then, Wu Zhixuan whispered to Yu Shao, "Fang Haoxin was studying Go in Seoul before. This time he went to Seoul to see his friends. When he came to the review room and saw Su Yiming, he said he wanted to play a game with him."

"I see."

Although Yu Shao had already guessed the general process from seeing Su Yiming and Fang Haoxin playing chess, he pretended to be just finding out and nodded.

At this moment, Yu Shao noticed that Xu Zijing was quietly watching him. His heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that Xu Zijing knew he was pretending, but just didn't expose him.

Fortunately, seeing that the two seemed to have no intention of continuing their bickering, Yu Shao breathed a slight sigh of relief before turning his attention back to the chess game between Su Yiming and Fang Haoxin.

In this game, Su Yiming played black and Fang Haoxin played white.

After looking at a few moves, Yu Shao's eyes flashed with surprise: "Fang Haoxin's moves are pretty good."

Previously, Yu Shao felt that Fang Haoxin and Zhuang Fei were at a similar level. If dan rank could be completely equated with chess strength, then the two were roughly at the level of second or third dan.

With this level of skill, passing the professional ranking tournament is usually a sure thing. However, once he enters the professional Go world, if his skills don't improve, he won't go very far.

However, in this game, Fang Haoxin's skill level was probably around 6 dan.

This is already quite alarming, considering that Fang Haoxin is only fifteen years old.

However, the difference between Fang Haoxin and Su Yiming is still obvious. Yu Shao could see that Su Yiming played every move fairly and squarely, and never made any overly aggressive moves.

This move doesn't qualify as a guiding move, but it definitely involves letting the opponent win.

"It's really strange that he would go easy on his opponent in a game. I always thought he was a player who would go all out in every game."

Yu Shao was slightly surprised. In his memory, Su Yiming would play very seriously even when facing players whose chess skills were obviously far inferior to his.

But this time, Su Yiming actually went easy on Fang Haoxin.

"Squeak."

Just then, the door to the debriefing room was pushed open again, and Ma Zhengyu led reporter Ding Huan into the room. This time, they would be traveling together to North and South Korea.

Seeing Su Yiming and Fang Haoxin playing chess, the two looked somewhat surprised. After exchanging a glance, they quickly squeezed into the crowd and began to watch intently.

Da da da……

The sound of pieces being placed echoed continuously.

Not long after, looking at the situation on the chessboard, Fang Haoxin looked somewhat unwilling, but in the end he lowered his head and said, "I lost by half a point."

"Thanks for the advice."

Su Yiming bowed his head to Fang Haoxin and greeted him.

Fang Haoxin immediately bowed in return, saying, "Thank you for your guidance."

Afterwards, Su Yiming gave Fang Haoxin a brief review of the game, then smiled and said, "Your Go skills have improved a lot compared to the ranking tournament."

"I still have a lot to improve."

Fang Haoxin raised his head, looked at Su Yiming, took a deep breath, and said, "I hope that next time I play chess with you on the field, I can make you give it your all."

Su Yiming paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I look forward to our match on the field."

Seeing that the two had finished their game, Ma Zhengyu, who was in the crowd, cleared his throat and said, "Alright, now that you're done, hurry up and pack up your pieces and head out. Everyone's here, and the bus is waiting outside the chess academy."

Upon hearing Ma Zhengyu's words, everyone finally turned their attention away from the chessboard and gradually walked out of the review room to board the bus prepared by the chess academy to go to the airport.

Everyone seemed very excited about going abroad, chatting as they walked out of the chess academy.

"After we arrive in North and South Korea, do you want to have barbecue for dinner?"

"I heard their bibimbap is pretty good? Or maybe fried chicken or cold noodles?"

"I just want to know if I can see the latest updates of the Korean comics I follow as soon as they are released."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shao couldn't help but glance at the male professional Go player who had mentioned "Korean comics".

"Korean comics? Aren't people usually into Japanese comics? Are Korean comics really that good?" a female chess player in her twenties asked curiously.

"hey-hey……"

The male chess players exchanged glances, a knowing smile playing on their lips: "Actually, it's not bad."

Looking at the smiles on their faces, Yu Shao felt that this shouldn't be called mysterious, but rather lewd.

"Yu Shao, do you read Korean comics too?"

Listening to the conversation in front of her, Wu Zhixuan was a little puzzled and turned to ask Yu Shao, "What Korean comics? Recommend one to me."

Yu Shao answered firmly, "I never watch it."
