I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 58: What kind of chess game will he show me?

Although the eighth group has been confirmed, the process still needs to be completed.

The principal asked as usual, and after receiving responses from Jiangling No. 5 Middle School and South China No. 3 Middle School, he turned around and wrote the final grouping arrangements on the whiteboard with a marker.

Except for Jiangling No. 5 Middle School, everyone else couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief that they didn't meet South China No. 3 Middle School in the first round.

While they felt fortunate, they rarely felt any gloating.

In fact, on the contrary, everyone felt heavy inside and inexplicably depressed.

Because, even if they don’t meet South China No. 3 Middle School in the first round, what awaits them will be the most brutal single-elimination tournament!
There are sixteen schools in total, and in the first round... at least eight will be eliminated!

Even if they win the first round and advance to the second round, they may face South China No. 3 Middle School. If they don't meet them in the second round, they may meet them in the third round.

Even if we are lucky and still fail to meet them in the third round, we will definitely meet South China No. 3 Middle School if we make it to the finals!
The four words "South China No. 3 Middle School" are like a stone pressing on everyone's heart, making them feel tremendous pressure.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to feel any gloating over Jiangling No. 5 Middle School's encounter with South China No. 3 Middle School in the first round. Instead, they may even feel a sense of pity for the loss of the rabbit.

The atmosphere at the entire competition venue was so solemn that it made it difficult to breathe.

This made Zhou De, who felt the atmosphere of the stadium for the first time, a little frightened. Even with his lively personality, he became surprisingly quiet at this moment.

"Okay, the groups have been determined. The competition will officially begin in fifteen minutes at nine o'clock. Please prepare for the competition."

After saying that, the principal sat back in the referee's seat.

After hearing this, the originally solemn atmosphere was slightly alleviated, and contestants began to leave the competition venue in silence and walk towards the toilets.

Some people were really going to the toilet, but some just wanted to wash their faces with cold water to calm themselves down. Still others couldn't stand the atmosphere at the moment and wanted to go to the corridor to breathe some fresh air.

"Does anyone need to go to the bathroom? If not, please go sit at the chess table and wait for the game to start."

Chen Jiaming looked at Yu Shao and the other two and spoke.

Zhong Yufei was going to the restroom, while Yu Shao and Xu Zijin went straight to the chess table for group five, pulled out chairs and sat down.

Not long after, as nine o'clock got closer, the contestants who had gone out earlier returned to the competition venue one after another and sat down in their respective seats.

The three contestants from Jianghai No. 1 Middle School also came to the opposite side of Yu Shao and the other two, pulled out their chairs, and sat opposite them.

Those non-contestants also gathered around the contestants they were following in advance, waiting for the competition to begin.

At this time, before the game started, Zheng Qin finally returned to the competition venue.

He stood at the door and looked around, quickly found where Yu Shao was, and then walked straight to Yu Shao's table.

The two young men following Zheng Qin looked at each other, and then they followed Zheng Qin and walked towards Yu Shao's table together.

Although they had already deduced from Zheng Qin's words that Yu Shao had most likely defeated Zheng Qin, and even won two games.

However, even so, Zheng Qin still did not give them an accurate answer, so they still found it hard to believe -

How could an ordinary high school student who hadn't even trained in a dojo possibly beat Zheng Qin? !
You know, Zheng Qin has even defeated several young men from the dojo who were trying to become a Dan in the preliminaries and semi-finals of this year's Dan ranking tournament!
The two of them had the same idea at this moment -

"If that high school student named Yu Shao really beat Zheng Qin..."

"What kind of chess game will he show me?"

at last.

When the clock on the wall pointed to nine o'clock, the referee sitting next to the principal stood up and said loudly: "Time's up!"

"This team competition is played in best of three games, and the winner will advance to the next round. Now, contestants can start guessing who will go first!" Upon hearing this, Yu Shao reached into the chess box and grabbed a handful of chess pieces.

Seeing this, the boy sitting opposite Yu Shao also took a deep breath, looked at Yu Shao again, then reached into the chess box and took out the chess piece.

Yu Shao loosened his grip and the chess piece fell onto the board.

"Two, four, six, eight."

After counting the chess pieces, Yu Shao raised his head, looked at the other party, and said, "Eight."

The boy sitting opposite Yu Shao opened his hand, revealing a black piece in his palm, and said, "I didn't guess right, you play black."

After saying that, he put the black piece back and exchanged the chess box with Yu Shao.

In team competitions, in order to ensure fairness, the deputy general and the third general do not need to guess the first move. Everything is decided by the main general's guess. If the main general plays black, then the deputy general plays white, and the third general also plays black, and vice versa.

"Please give me more advice."

Yu Shao nodded slightly to the boy opposite him.

The boy opposite immediately responded, "Please give me your guidance."

The chess game begins!
Yu Shao stared at the chessboard calmly, reached his right hand into the chess box and took out the chess piece.

Being in the arena, even if it was just the most amateur high school Go league, the tense atmosphere unique to the arena still made Yu Shao feel like he had returned to his previous life.

Therefore, the moment Yu Shao picked up the chess piece, an inexplicable aura emerged from Yu Shao.

Then--

Hey!
Sixteen columns and seventeen rows, small eyes!
The chess pieces fell onto the board with a loud and crisp sound.

Seeing Yu Shao place the chess piece down, the boy sitting opposite Yu Shao was actually a little stunned.

It was four or five seconds later that he finally came back to his senses.

"This guy……"

His chest heaved, his expression looked a little ugly, and a feeling of shame and anger inexplicably surged in his heart, but even he himself didn't know where this shame and anger came from.

He took a deep breath, reached into the chess box, picked out the chess piece, and placed it on the chessboard.

Four columns and four rows, stars!

Both sides continued to make moves, and soon formed a basic opening pattern of wrong small eyes against star small eyes, and quickly finished more than a dozen moves.

"Is this a jump or a pull?"

The boy sitting opposite Yu Shao looked at the chessboard and fell into deep thought.

Finally, he made a decision.

He glanced at Yu Shao, reached into the chess box, picked up a chess piece, and then, subconsciously imitating the posture of Yu Shao's move just now, knocked the chess piece down!
"I'll show you some color!"

Hey!
Eighteen columns and twelve rows, eat!
The white piece neither chose to jump nor to block, but finally chose to capture. After only a dozen moves, it began to show its strength and bared its fangs to the black piece!
