Hikaru no Go: I taught you Go, and you made the Kisei cry?

"But this young man from China, he perfectly predicted all my movements!"

At this point, even a top-tier Go player like Sai couldn't help but let his voice tremble with excitement:

"He's so strong! Hikaru, he's really strong! You... could you let me play a game against him, just one game, please, Hikaru!"

After listening to Sai's explanation, Hikaru Shindo, who knew nothing about Go, was still a little confused, but how could he refuse Sai's earnest request?

He was about to ask Su Ran for a game of chess.

However, just a second before he opened his mouth, Akira Touya spoke first:

"Young man from China, you... are very strong! Would you like to play a game of chess with me?"

……

Chapter 10 is ruined, I've become an experience point baby!

[Ding! A third-dan player has been detected challenging you. The Go simulator will start automatically!]

[Latest mission updated: Defeat the opponent within 100 paces]

[Task Rewards: Go Talent +1, Go Comprehension +100, Go Points +1000, Yingzhou Coins +300000]

[Accept the mission?]

Three hundred thousand Yingzhou coins!

When Su Ran saw that the reward was 300,000 yuan in cash, she was so excited she almost jumped for joy.

money!

This is real money!

With this money, my father had hope of recovering.

In my past life, I was an orphan.

Su Ran had never experienced the feeling of family affection until she transmigrated here and absorbed the original owner's memories.

He finally understood.

What does it feel like to have someone care about you and think about you?

And that is precisely why.

From the moment he absorbed the memories of his predecessor, he decided to take care of his father for the other person.

Just consider it.

This is some small compensation for him...

With a thought racing through her mind, Su Ran accepted the task almost without hesitation.

of course.

Before accepting Akira Touya's challenge, he first needs to finish the game he and Sai haven't finished in the simulation environment.

In any case, when the simulation is started, all time in the outside world will be forcibly paused.

It wouldn't be too late for him to deal with Akira Touya after he's finished tormenting Sai with the Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth.

Thinking of this.

Su Ran immediately started the final simulated game.

[Ding! The Go simulator has been activated. Preparing to enter the simulation environment...]

[Three skill usage scrolls detected in the host. Activate?]

Su Ran nodded quickly: "Start it."

[Your current skill options are: Heavenly Demon Transformation, Harmony of Heaven and Earth, and Divine Hand. Please select one.]

"I choose harmony between heaven and earth."

Since he would get another 'Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth' usage scroll once the mission was completed, he felt no guilt about using it now.

[Ding! Detected that the host has selected an initial skill. Combat simulation will begin for you...]

[Your skill in this simulation is: Harmony of Heaven and Earth!]

[Because you used an SSS-level gold skill in this simulation, all your attributes will be boosted to perfect status based on the skill's effect. Refreshing your current attributes, please wait...]

[Attribute refresh successful!]

Name: Su Ran

[Go Talent: 100 (Transcendent)]

[Go Comprehension: One Million (Master's Understanding)]

The simulation results are as follows:

[Your skill is extraordinary. Although your opponent's opening move, the ancient and conventional komoku, was quite novel to you, as the God of Go, you didn't care at all about how your opponent played. You upheld the supreme way of Go, which is to simplify complexity and follow your heart, completely disregarding any fixed patterns. You opened the game solely based on your will, placing your first stone directly on the center point!]

[Your opponent was stunned by your unconventional playing style and fell into deep thought. After careful consideration, he decided to play a more conservative approach, seizing the star point in the fourth row and fourth column on his second move. It seemed he wanted to use a subtle defensive layout to drag the game into a complex late-game variation. Clearly, he was quite adept at this.]

[To test your opponent's strength, you use a small flying hook with six rows and five columns, adopting a similarly defensive stance, to begin a strategic battle with your opponent regarding layout.]

The game started smoothly with no major changes, but the opponent sensed a subtle unease.

[On move 24, your opponent launched an attack with a komi, but after placing their stone, they noticed your calm expression, as if you had anticipated their attack would focus on your left flank. Then, your block of the six rows and twelve columns caused a dramatic change in your opponent's expression, and from that point on, the game began to tilt in your favor.]

[By move 97, you have completely breached your opponent's left flank. In an attempt to reverse the situation, he has concentrated his forces in the center and begun exchanging pieces with you.]

[You already knew that your advantage on the left flank wasn't enough to end the game. Therefore, when your opponent adopted a piece-exchanging strategy, you used your pre-laid ambush to withdraw from the middle at a minimal cost. Then, with a stunning jump, you plunged straight into the enemy's right flank from the position of row 3 in the 16th column!]

[Your opponent was taken aback by your move, but instead of returning to defend, he continued to exchange pieces with you in the center. If he can take down your central king before you clear out the enemy's pieces on the left and right flanks, the game is very likely to become a point-scoring affair, which is clearly more advantageous for the disadvantaged side.]

You admire your opponent's courage in fighting to the death and decide to engage in a speed contest. At this point in the game, no amount of skill will help; both sides have completely entered a fierce, close-quarters battle, and the situation is extremely tense.

[On move 196, in the endgame, both sides had the same number of pieces. You, playing white, went second and ultimately won by a narrow margin of half a point. This result was exactly what you expected, and your opponent was completely convinced of your superiority!]

Phew, we finally won...

Upon seeing the final simulation results, even the composed Su Ran couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat from the shock of this thrilling match.

risk!

That was incredibly dangerous!

Sai truly lives up to his reputation as the number one player in the world of Hikaru no Go.

That terrifying computing power, the intricate and subtle strategic planning, the courage to make decisive moves when at a disadvantage, and the unwavering tenacity to fight to the very end...

If it weren't for the powerful blessing of the unity of heaven and earth.

Su Ran would be crushed and eliminated in the very beginning, let alone fight him to the end.

And Akira Touya...

How could he have held out until the ninety-ninth move against such a strong opponent?

He's only about a year older than me, right?

This……

Is this even human?

In an instant, Su Ran felt extremely frustrated.

Fortunately.

Before he could be sad for long, the system's reward arrived.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for defeating a peak-level Go master in a simulated environment. Rewards are being distributed to you...]

[Rewards refreshed! Congratulations, host, you have received:]

Ok?

System, this is...

Su Ran was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was happening and exclaimed with delight, "Unlock it immediately!"

[Ding! The emulator is performing a system upgrade, please wait...]

System upgrade successful. Current system level: ‖. Unlocking the next level requires 100,000 simulated points.

只是开启一个抽奖功能，就直接浪费发*书！群>9：8,0s2:0ュ58:5/6，由?呆ュ呆。发，自了我一千积分？

Seeing that string of information in her mind, Su Ran felt like dying.

Oh shit.

This system is such a rip-off.

I thought the system upgrade would bring some incredible rewards, but it turns out it's just a lottery feature that looks good but doesn't work...

These deceptive tactics, are they all learned from Pinduoduo?

Speechless as I may be, all things considered, those rewards were pretty good.

and.

That lottery feature isn't just for show; he can use it immediately once he earns another thousand points.

and so.

No matter how you look at it, today's harvest was quite substantial.

especially.
