Go: Master inherits the art of excellence, and mankind is invincible

The green trees are thick and the summer days are long, and the building platform is reflected into the pond.

Fast forward to June, early summer.

Zhou Yifei left by ferry and went to Fang Yuan Chess Courtyard.

Every time you go to the chess courtyard, you must take a boat boat, and the willow trees by the river and lake have long bloomed, adding a bit of the emerald green scenery of early summer.

From a distance, you can see the huge chess courtyard area, standing in a group of low and retro buildings.

After getting off the boat, Zhou Yifei stepped on the bluestone paved path and went straight to the chess courtyard.

More than two months, close to three months.

The Tian Yuan Battle qualifier had ended last week, with nearly two hundred professional chess players finally competing for eight to advance.

There are five rounds in total, and the opponents you meet along the way, one stronger than the other.

Fortunately, Zhou Yifei flew through the pass and cut the general, but he still broke in.

Not only that.

The regular season of the Wai B League is also nearing its end, and it is currently in the thirteenth round, and the Waida GC is a dark horse and temporarily ranks third in the standings.

In addition to this, there is the promotion competition, and the ongoing rookie king battle.

Anyway, the competition that can be registered, Zhou Yifei reported it all.

And a large number of competitions also allowed his points to accumulate rapidly.

Of course, the rest of the matches aside, for now, the most important thing for him is Tian Yuan Zhan.

The qualifiers are over and the tournament is about to begin.

The eight players who made the cut will need to compete on the same stage as the remaining twenty-four seeded players.

The battle between the top 32 to determine the champion, take the power of the champion, to challenge the holder of the title of Tian Yuan, Zhao Bingfeng Jiudan!

Today, it is the draw ceremony of the Tian Yuan Battle Tournament.

Soon after, Fang Yuan Chess Academy.

Zhou Yifei climbed the stone stairs and walked all the way to a large hall in the chess academy.

Push the door in, and the next moment, a noisy sound comes into your ears.

Not only the thirty-two players participating in the draw ceremony came to participate in the drawing ceremony, but also many spectators, commonly known as the fun.

People who have a good relationship still get together and talk to each other.

In the aisles, there are also various staff members busy back and forth, bringing tea and water.

“Zhou Yifei, Elder Zhou, here!”

Suddenly, in the position of the third row, Hong He’s eyes sharply noticed the movement at the door, and immediately beckoned.

As if hearing this, many people stopped talking and cast their eyes.

“Zhou Yifei, this kid made history and broke into this competition as a new early stage…”

“It’s too much to say that the child is, and you are just one round older than him.”

“When the results of the qualifiers came out, I was really shocked, and the first stage entered this competition, incredible!”

“No… The really scary thing is that after he became a professional, so far, he has not lost! ”

“I mean, he hasn’t lost a formal match, do you know how much he is graded now?”

“In the domestic rating ranking announced at the beginning of each month, he has broken into the top five シten.”

“…… It is indeed a little terrifying, this momentum is too strong, Fang Xu was far inferior back then, it is estimated that it will not be long before he can enter the front sergeant, right? ”

“On the June list, he is now 48th, with a rating of 3440!”

“How much is Fang Xu, I remember the last time, it seems to be 18, 3568 points?”

With many scrutinizing gazes, Zhou Yifei was very calm.

He walked over to Honghe and sat down, “You guys are early.” ”

Not only Hong He, Yue Zhi, Shen Yilang, and Tian Min are there.

“You participate in the lottery ceremony, can we not come?”

Hong He said with a smile: “You are the only surviving single seedling of our six sons of Jianghu, we must come!” ”

Zhou Yifei shook his head with a smile.

Yue Zhi didn’t sign up, not counting him.

Hong He, Shen Yilang, and Tian Min all fell in the first round, Yu Liang encountered an eight-dan senior, fell in the second round, only he cut five strong enemies in a row, and it was indeed a unique seedling to get close to this competition.

“The big teacher is also here.”

Tian Min grinned, “In the back row.” ”

Zhou Yifei followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw the big teacher and the teacher in the last few rows, as well as Bai Xiaoxiao, Zhiguang and others.

The two sides looked at each other and smiled at each other as a greeting.

Zhou Yifei secretly complained: “No wonder so many people, most of the people who have feelings are here to make fun…”

The chess courtyard is open, except for some places where you are not allowed to enter, most places can still be moved.

After he sat down, Shen Yilang smiled and said, “Are you nervous?” The intensity of the confrontation in the top 32 is many times more intense than the previous qualifiers. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yifei smiled lightly, “Do your best, obey the fate of heaven!” ”

Suddenly, two figures came over one after another.

“Well said, do your best, obey the fate!”

Fang Xu walked over with a smile, “Among the thirty-two people this time, you are the only low-level chess player. ”

There are no two, three, four.

Behind him, Yu Liang nodded and said, “Six people in the ninth stage, seven people in the eighth stage, fourteen people in the seventh stage, three people in the sixth stage, one person in the fifth stage, and one person in the first stage… One person. ”

After a pause, he said, “Among the nine paragraphs, in addition to Senior Brother Fang Xu, my father also participated, and Teacher Lin Li was also there. ”

Zhou Yifei suddenly said helplessly: “Run to put pressure on me?” ”

Can he not know who is in the top thirty-two… The official website of the chess academy has a large list hanging out.

Hearing this, Yu Liang smiled slightly: “I hope you want to cheer up and do your best, I want to see how far you can go!” ”

“Then you can take a good look.”

Zhou Yifei smiled.

At this time, a female host walked onto the stage, and a voice came out of the microphone.

Old acquaintances.

It’s this girl again, professional living in major events…

Even the name, Zhou Yifei remembered, probably called… Lin Xi graduated from a media college in Beijing.

The scene fell silent.

“…… Distinguished guests, teachers, welcome to the draw ceremony of the 20th Tianchao Go Tianyuan Tournament! ”

Lin Xi’s voice was pleasant and his appearance was beautiful, “It is when the early summer is pleasant, and the annual Tianyuan Battle has reached the stage of this competition!” ”

“First of all, let’s congratulate the eight teachers who emerged from the brutal qualifiers.”

“They are: Xu Hou 6th Section, Zhou Yifei Chu Stage, Dang Fei Seventh Section, Li Ran Fifth Section…”

After a simple opening statement, it soon came to the draw of lots.

Lin Xi looked at the list in his hand and said with a slight smile: “First of all, there is Teacher Zhou Yifei, who invited our chess supernova and led the new wave. ”

In the applause, Zhou Yifei took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.

“I met again, Teacher Zhou Yifei, I always feel that I have seen you many times in the past few months.”

Lin Xi said jokingly.

“I’ll see you more times in the future, you have to get used to it.”

Zhou Yifei took the microphone and shot back.

Lin Xi was speechless for a while, his expression helpless, “I still can’t talk about you, Teacher Zhou Yifei.” It’s a pleasure to see you, though. ”

Her eyes were a little resentful.

Generally, in the face of young chess players, it is her part to joke about others, and when she comes to Zhou Yifei, she loses every time.

Zhou Yifei said with a smile: “Draw lots, everyone is not here to listen to crosstalk.” ”

There was laughter from the audience, and even some people applauded, completely watching the lively attitude.

Lin Xi gave him a blank look and attacked again: “Then, before the draw, I ask you in my personal capacity, who do you want to meet the most?” ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yifei recalled the remaining thirty-one people in his mind for a moment before saying, “Anyone can!” ”

Lin Xi blinked his eyes in surprise and said with a smile: “It’s really your style.” So, I can only wish you a successful start, as a new beginning of history, everyone is looking forward to where you go! ”

Everyone will expect, no, rather, curious, concerned.

As the first chess player to break into the Tian Yuan Tournament as a junior, his eyes are not only on the people around him, but also professional chess players across the country, even amateur chess players, and Go lovers, are paying attention to him.

Zhou Yifei smiled and said nothing.

Silently walked to the draw box and reached out to take out a folding fan from it.

After opening the fan, I couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

“Teacher Zhou Yifei, please show everyone the front.”

Lin Xi reminded everyone in the stage to gaze intently.

I saw that on the flipped folding fan, there were two words written impressively.

Fang Xu Zero!
