He, who had achieved a 3-star rating, lost to a little girl who was only 9 years old.
Hinatsuru Ai and Nakamura Daisuke played a game of Go for nearly fifty minutes before a winner was finally decided, and the spectators breathed a sigh of relief.
Before they knew it, not only the trainees in the training center, but also some reward club players who were just killing time in the training center came to watch the game.
The shogi community is actually not very large. If a talented player emerges from some obscure corner, the news will quickly spread throughout the entire shogi world.
Dongfang Chen fetched a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Chuhe Ai: "Xiao Ai, have some water first, there's another match later!"
"I'm fine. I'm sure I can win three games in a row and get my mom's approval."
The young crane took a small sip, its little face full of determination and confidence.
"Yes, love will definitely succeed."
He smiled and gently patted her head.
“Then, I’ll take the third round!” Kuruno Yoshitsune walked over.
"Hey, are you serious?" Dongfang Chen stared at the man with some dissatisfaction.
Kuruno Yoshitsune is a genuine professional 7th dan player. Even if his skill level is so low, he is still far superior to that of ordinary professional players.
To put it bluntly, even if someone with no money in their pocket were to fight, they would still be completely outmatched by him!
A professional 7th Dan isn't something you can just boast about.
In the ranking battle, Kuruno Yoshitsune is ranked B-1, while Dongfang Chen is still C-1, three dan lower than him!
Of course, this means that the ranking battle for this year has not yet started. Once the battle begins, it would be a shame if Dongfang Chen didn't reach A-level.
If he can defeat the 'Meijin' Seisei, who is at the top of the shogi rankings, Dongfang Chen will have a high probability of advancing to 9-dan, and even becoming an A-level 9-dan!
Those who truly stand at the pinnacle of the shogi world will have their names deeply etched in the history of shogi.
anyway.
Although in the original storyline, Kuruno Yoshitsune lost to Hinatsuru Ai, he definitely threw the game.
"It's rare to see such a genius, so I'll just consider it as me wanting to witness the rise of a new star."
Kuruno Yoshitsune said with a smile.
"She's just a child, you better watch her!"
Dongfang Chen patted him on the shoulder, and the other man smiled in return.
Then Dongfang Chen looked at Chuzuru Ai and said, "Ai, use the tactics I taught you yesterday on him. Go all out from the start!"
"Yes, Master!"
She nodded solemnly, knowing she would give it her all even without Dongfang Chen's reminder.
Dongfang Chen: "Keep it up, I'll make crabs for Ai when I get home today."
Both sides began to place the chess pieces, and Dongfang Chen returned to Hina Hina's side. Seven or eight more people came to watch the game at the entrance of the chess room.
What was originally a simple membership test ended up with a professional 7th dan player personally participating. Regardless of the outcome, Hinatsuru Ai's reputation will definitely be established after this match.
"Is that teacher very strong?" Hinatsuru Akina asked.
Dongfang Chen nodded: "A master among the seventh-dan professionals is still very strong in terms of raw strength. Even for me, it would take half an hour to defeat him."
Achieving a professional 7th dan in half an hour?
The onlookers behind Dongfang Chen all looked at Dongfang Chen, wanting to see who dared to make such a boast.
It turned out to be Dongfang Chen...
okay.
It turns out he is the youngest Dragon King in history, and he also had a terrifying record of 11 consecutive wins and no losses in the challenge tournament not long ago.
That's nothing, it's alright.
Hinatsuru Akina rolled her eyes at him. Although she wasn't entirely clear on the detailed divisions, she still knew that a professional 7th dan shogi player was already a well-known figure in the shogi world.
"Does love still have a chance this time?" she asked.
Dongfang Chen: "There's definitely a chance of winning; it's just a matter of degree."
It mainly depends on how much water Kuruno Yoshitsune releases.
Before long, the two were ready and the game began.
A professional recorder began to document every move of the two players' game, which will later be compiled into a chess score for people to study.
There are countless game records in the world of Shogi, but without exception, they are all games that have appeared before.
At the start of the match between Hinatsuru Ai and Kuruno Yoshitsune, the two each laid out their strategies before engaging in direct combat...
In just ten minutes, Kuruno Yoshitsune touched his chin, a few beads of cold sweat appearing on his forehead. He clearly hadn't expected Hinatsuru Ai to gain the upper hand and dominate him.
Moreover, he looked at the little girl opposite him and saw that her face was almost pressed against the chessboard, her small body swaying back and forth, and her eyes were fixed on the chessboard without blinking.
Is this the child's talent?
Pre-reading or something else?
Whatever it is, it's incredibly powerful!
Of course, he couldn't just sit and wait to die; he had to come up with something.
He's a professional 7th Dan; if he gets beaten so badly by a little girl, what will become of him?
Thinking this way, he immediately changed his playing style, using a style that was not recorded in the game manual.
But Hinatsuru Ai didn't hold back and directly rammed the luxury car into his interior, instantly interrupting his plans that hadn't even begun...
That hits the nail on the head!
"I lost!"
Ten minutes later, Kuruno Yoshitsune resigned.
Hinatsuru Ai, who was still staring at the chessboard, didn't react for a moment. She looked up at her opponent, and Kuruno Yoshitsune smiled and nodded.
"I won!"
Hinatsuru Ai was so happy she jumped up and ran to her mother, looking at her expectantly: "Mom, I won all three matches!"
Hinatsuru Akina calmly nodded: "Since you've done it, I won't object to you learning shogi from Teacher Higashi anymore."
"Yay! Master, Mom approves!"
The fledgling crane loved to hop happily into Dongfang Chen's arms...
Chapter 36 Reuniting with the Duo
Having passed the membership test perfectly, Hinatsuru Ai successfully joined the training club and officially embarked on her journey as a Go player.
After completing the necessary procedures, Dongfang Chen took Chuhe Ai to a nearby seafood shop to celebrate by making crabs for her.
"Would you like to come to my house for a meal, Mrs. Hinatsuru?" Dongfang Chen invited.
"Since the teacher has invited me, then I'll take my leave."
Hinatsuru Akina nodded, deciding it was a good opportunity to go and see where Dongfang Chen was staying.
After all, her daughter would be living with Dongfang Chen for a long time, so she naturally wanted to see how well they were doing.
The three walked down the street, with Ai between the two, holding their hands and humming an unknown tune happily, giving the impression of a family of three going out for a stroll.
"Can Lady Hina Tsuru see those six 'things' over there?"
She leaned close to Hina Tsurugi's ear and whispered.
Dongfang Chen pointed to a small alley not far away, where several evil spirits stood, swaying from side to side like weeds in a gentle breeze.
Hinatsuru Akina looked in the direction he pointed with an unnatural expression. Apart from the somewhat dark alley, she could only see a thin wisp of black mist.
"Only a sliver of black mist can be seen..."
"Is that so?"
Dongfang Chen nodded with some doubt.
Hinatsuru Ashina could see that the powerful evil spirit from yesterday was a cloud of black mist. Normally, she should be able to see the basic outlines of the weaker evil spirits, but she could only see a little bit of black mist.
When a person with normal yin-yang eyes looks directly at an evil spirit, the clarity of the gaze gradually decreases from weak to strong until it becomes impossible to look directly at a particularly powerful evil spirit.
Based on what he knew, Hinatsuru Akina's ability to see ghosts was a bit strange.
After walking for a while, Dongfang Chen suddenly looked towards an alley and saw two familiar faces there!
It's Miko Yotsuya and Hana Yurikawa.
But that alley, which was only a few dozen meters long, was teeming with evil spirits, no fewer than thirty of them.
Yurikawa Kazusa Yotsuya Miko waved and said, "Miko, hurry up, we'll get to the shop I was talking about by going through this alley."
Standing outside the alley, Miko Yotsuya stared blankly at the narrow lane...
In her view, this alley was nothing more than a less glamorous version of Hell Road.
"Wait, wait a minute, Hua..."
Yotsuya Miko didn't want to go in, but she looked at the two prayer beads on her right wrist and wondered if she could try them out.
