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

Ultimately, they won by contesting the land.

However, Su Ran had no intention of wasting time on this game of chess! Group > 9:8,0s2:058:5/6, by?呆ュ呆. , from too much time.

Therefore, his third move was—

The tenth row, the tenth column, is the center point!

……

Chapter Twenty: Cultivating Both Inner and Outer Strength! Are you... a professional Go player?

Tianyuan? ...

Looking at the third move transmitted from the other end of the computer, Yoshitaka Waga was taken aback.

What kind of move is this?

A 3-3 opening hand, including the second-hand star, could perhaps be interpreted as the opponent deliberately concealing their strength.

However, with this third move at the center point, Black completely lost its priority in contesting territory.

This not only greatly expanded the operational space available to White, but also put Black in a very passive position.

To make such a terrible move...

It seems the opponent is a complete novice at Go!

Thinking this, He Gu Yigao felt a sense of relief.

He simply abandoned his previous steady playing style and instead launched fierce attacks against Black in every corner.

Soon, both parties completed more than eighty moves on the computer.

As the battle situation changed, the offensives of both sides gradually spread from the flanking positions to the central heartland...

Ok?

Oops!

Black actually used the center as the core and occupied all the passages on the sides and corners!

If this continues, after ten moves, my flanks...

Then everything will collapse!

As Black played his 85th move, Yoshitaka Wagaya suddenly realized that his White stones had unknowingly fallen into a complete disadvantage!

Although the black stones did not encroach on their territory during the fierce competition, they even had a slight advantage in terms of points at one point.

However, from a strategic perspective, Black firmly holds the middle game, and no matter how White moves around, it cannot shake Black's position in the slightest.

The reason why this situation has arisen is...

It was Black's terrible first three moves that caused this!

I……

I lost...

They were doomed from the start!

After quickly reviewing the entire game in his mind, Yoshitaka Wagaya realized with a start that he had been caught in a trap set by his opponent from the very first move.

even.

From beginning to end, there was never even the slightest hope of winning!

A bead of cold sweat slowly slid down his neck.

powerful!

That's incredibly powerful!

The pressure emanating from this opponent was even more terrifying than that from his own teacher.

Playing against a teacher allows you to at least understand where you went wrong.

But when facing the mysterious Thesai, he simply couldn't fathom the deeper meaning behind each move the opponent made.

It's not until the last ten moves before the end of the game that one suddenly realizes they've unknowingly fallen into a desperate situation.

This feeling is like a frog being slowly heated in warm water.

Only when they are about to be cooked do they realize their tragic fate.

But by then, it was too late to struggle...

"I lost."

After hesitating for a long time, He Gu Yigao finally clicked the surrender button on the computer screen.

However, after sending the surrender message, he couldn't resist his curiosity and typed a question:

"Can you tell me who you are? With your chess skills, you must be a well-known professional chess player, right?"

Upon seeing the message from her opponent, Su Ran was about to reply.

But before he could send the wording he had prepared, the system's reward notification suddenly rang in his mind:

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully defeating a professional 2-dan Go player! Calculating your reward...]

[Reward calculation complete. Congratulations, host, you have received:]

[Go talent +0.2!]

[Go comprehension +200!]

[Simulated score +200!]

[Yingzhou Coins +200000!]

[The current game has been completed. Do you want to upload the game experience to the simulator for storage? Each storage will consume 100 simulation points.]

Store game experience?

Upon seeing this option, Su Ran remembered that his epic duel with Sai had also included a prompt to save match experience.

only.

At the time, all attention was focused on the other rewards, and no one really investigated the purpose of the 'storing game experience' feature.

Since there's nothing else to do right now, I might as well take a look at it.

With that in mind, Su Ran immediately opened her personal panel and began to examine it carefully.

[Ding! Detecting the host's current status...]

[Detection successful. Your personal data has been automatically retrieved.]

Name: Su Ran

[Current Go talent: 52.2 (out of 100, current level assessed as: exceptionally gifted)]

[Current Go understanding level: 10883 (maximum one million, current level assessment: some understanding, but not much)]

[Current Skills: Heavenly Demon Transformation (One-time Use), Heaven and Earth Harmony (One-time Use), Divine Hand (One-time Use)]

Current simulated integral: 1210

[Currently available lottery chances: 1]

[Currently saved games: 1 (Su Ran, the Go master at the level of "Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth" VS Shindo Hikaru, the peak Go saint with "Divine Move")]

[Saved games can be viewed once a month for 1000 points. Viewing a game will increase your Go understanding based on its difficulty; the higher the difficulty, the greater the increase! Note: Saving more high-difficulty games will significantly increase the number of times you can improve your understanding each month!]

hiss!

Even though Su Ran had mentally prepared himself to be a wealthy man, he still couldn't help but gasp when he saw his current situation.

How can I describe this feeling?

To paraphrase Li Yunlong:

Old Li has never fought such a profitable battle in his life!

First, there's the improvement in Go talent.

After the initial battle against Hanekawa Tsubasa, his talent increased from 37 to 38.

After that, simulating Akira Touya's duel with Sai, I gained another 3 points, bringing my total to 42.

Immediately afterwards, he defeated Akira Touya with his "unconventional" style, gaining another point.

Then, the state of "Great Harmony of Heaven and Earth" overwhelmed the combined power of Sai and Hikaru at their peak, causing the value to surge by another 10 points.

Having just defeated that 2-dan player online, my skill level has now been artificially boosted to a level of 52.2, far exceeding that of ordinary players!

Don't be fooled by the fact that it seems like only 2.2 more than the normal person.

But in reality, ordinary people cannot improve their talents in their entire lives.

His current stats are almost 50 percent higher than when he became a disciple of Harada Ikegami this afternoon!

To use a more intuitive analogy.

It's like in a martial arts novel, where an ordinary person with mediocre talent suddenly has their Ren and Du meridians opened up.

at the moment.

Although I haven't become a master yet.

However, as long as you obtain a powerful martial arts manual, you could take off at any time!

Zhang Wuji is such an example.

As he mastered the Nine Yang Divine Skill, he raised his talent to the maximum level.

What would take an ordinary person decades or even centuries to master, he achieved mastery in just three hours.

This.

That's the benefit of improved talent.

As for Go understanding, that's even easier to understand; it's like a martial arts master honing their basic skills.

Similar to practicing swordsmanship or honing one's Iron Palm technique, it is a fundamental skill that every martial artist must hone through countless trials.
