The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

It's always been like this... Mom likes to comb her own hair.

Ji Qinghe meticulously combed through Ji Yingting's thick, bluish-green bangs, making them perfectly neat. Then, he picked up his makeup tools and quickly applied two green eye makeup lines above Ji Yingting's eyes.

Below her crescent-shaped, light green eyebrows, Ji Yingting, with her pale green eye makeup, appeared even more wild, her pale purple starry eyes seeming to contain an endless storm... making one's heart tremble.

With Ji Qinghe's help, she stood up. The long robe with silver stars under the dark blue Taoist robe covered half of her snow-white stockings, and Ji Yingting's light green hair reached all the way down to her hips.

A slender hand tossed her long, light green hair, and a cherry blossom-colored rose hair clip was tied above her light green herringbone hairstyle. The light green makeup at the corners of her eyes further accentuated the beauty of her fair and delicate face.

A soft breath escaped Ji Yingting's cherry-like lips. The breasts were perfectly concealed by the bra, and the discomfort she had felt recently had completely disappeared.

Two delicate white hands, after being soaked in the hot spring, stretched out like newborns from their dark blue Taoist robes, and their light green eye makeup was lightly applied.

Ji Qinghe stroked the cherry blossom hair clip on her light green head and whispered.

"Sakuraba...become a professional Go player...defeat anyone who stands in your way, including...her."

This is the state that Ji Yingting is most like a chess player, this is her most perfect form.

She is now...flawless.

Chapter 245: The Mad Monster, Ji Yingting [4000 words]

Two delicate white hands, reborn after soaking in the hot spring, emerged from her dark blue Taoist robe. Ji Qinghe stroked the cherry blossom hair clip atop her green head and spoke softly.

"Sakuraba...become a professional Go player...defeat anyone who stands in your way, including...her."

"Hmm," Ji Yingting slowly stood up from her chair as her long, turquoise hair cascaded down to the ground like a gentle stream.

Two green lines gently draped over the edges of her eyes, adorning her crescent-shaped green willow-leaf eyebrows.

"Whoosh!" The dark blue Taoist robe slid off the chair as she stood up, the hem of the skirt reaching the middle of her white silk calves.

...............

"So, who is my opponent today?" Ji Yingting muttered to himself as he sat on one side of the jade-colored chessboard.

Her tone was calm and even, without any unnecessary fluctuations, not even a single punctuation mark.

After binding her chest, she looked much younger, and her light green eye makeup was like moonlight reflecting off her pale purple starry eyes.

A soft sigh came from above Ji Yingting's head. A girl with long brown hair sat listlessly opposite her. Ma Gongling's dark circles were large and undisguised.

Her gray eyes seemed to have lost their sparkle. She hadn't even put on any eye makeup today, and casually sat down, dragging her Taoist robe that hadn't been washed for two days.

Hmm? A figure appeared on the opposite side of the starry chessboard, and Ji Yingting narrowed her eyes slightly.

It's her... wait, who is she??

Is this what Ma Gongling looks like? Who is this person who looks like they haven't woken up yet? Are you here to play chess?

Compared to Ji Yingting, who looked highly motivated, Ma Gongling's appearance was indeed too simple.

Another sigh came from Ma Gongling's mouth. She switched arms to support her chin, looking as if she didn't care about Ji Yingting at all.

Perhaps for her... no one can defeat Shang Gongying in this professional exam.

Of course... I will still play chess well, in order to become a professional chess player.

After the game started... Ma Gongling's expression became slightly more serious, and he placed a black piece into the star point.

"My condition hasn't recovered yet... Let's finish this game quickly." Ma Gongling barely lifted her long brown hair to glance at her opponent, a stunningly beautiful figure with long, light green hair and pale green eye makeup.

Compared to the gentle and beautiful Ji Yingting before, she now possessed a more madness.

What!!!!!!!!

However, the moment she lifted her long brown hair, Ma Gongling froze.

Although she hadn't checked the match schedule in advance these past few days, her opponent today was actually her? Ji Yingting, the 22-0-0 Ji Yingting Great Demon King!!!

I clearly observed her a while ago, and although she was very beautiful... but was she really this exaggerated today? By the way, did she change her clothes?

Both have a record of 22 wins and 0 losses... How does her chess skill compare to Shang Gongying's?

A glimmer of hope rekindled within him, and Ma Gongling swallowed hard, his expression turning serious.

Should we... give her a serious test of her chess skills? With all my might...

But now, can I still give it my all in this game? Her gray pupils showed a hint of surprise, and she gently clenched her right hand.

Sitting on the other side, Ji Yingting's long, light green hair swayed like beautiful willow branches, and she gently raised her left hand to touch the flower tucked in her hair.

Ji Yingting narrowed her pale purple star-like eyes slightly and picked up a white chess piece with her right hand.

Because the sleeves of this dark blue Taoist robe were too large, Ji Yingting had to stretch out her slender white hand with some effort.

With a soft thud, a slender arm gently landed on the chessboard, and two delicate fingers silently pushed the piece forward. The star point.

So beautiful... such a beautiful way of placing the pieces.

Ma Gongling's heart jolted, and she stared blankly at Ji Yingting's actions, letting out the same sigh as Shi Shishi.

She... is indeed very powerful, radiating a powerful aura.

Previously, Ma Gongling had always believed that only Shang Gongying was truly powerful, while the claim that Ji Yingting, the Great Demon King, was even stronger than Shang Gongying, was just a rumor, simply because those people had never actually seen Shang Gongying.

However... at this moment, Ji Yingting seemed to be overturning what she had thought. Her beautiful and gorgeous move was deeply imprinted in Ma Gongling's heart.

If we say that Shang San San, Shang Si Si, and others give the impression that they are incapable of losing.

So, the feeling emanating from Ji Yingting was... invincible! That's right, she was invincible.

"Is that so... Are you getting a little more serious?" Ji Yingting smiled slightly as she looked at Ma Gongling, whose attitude had become serious.

A soft, light green silk ribbon was taken from Ji Yingting's hand, and she gently tied it around her fair forehead, covering her light green bangs.

Compared to the original straight bangs, using a light green ribbon to slightly cover the ends makes it look more neutral and serious.

“However, this game will be quite boring if you don’t go all out,” Ji Yingting said casually.

With a snap, Ma Gongling's second move with black landed on the small point, although she was not entirely sure how strong Ji Yingting's skills were.

"Go all out... and defeat me!" Ma Gongling raised her head, her gray eyes filled with a glimmer of hope. It was the first time she had ever so desperately wanted to be utterly defeated by Ji Yingting.

It wasn't that they were letting him win; rather, it was the first time they'd done this, and they wanted to be crushed by overwhelmingly powerful opponents!

"Go all out? Don't overestimate yourself... You're just asking for defeat, aren't you?" A few soft strands of light green hair fell from the light green bangs wrapped in light green ribbons, obscuring the pale purple eyebrows.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yingting's white chess piece slowly fell into the chessboard with a soft thud.

This chess piece was very heavy, and it was placed with great force... even the jade chessboard trembled violently.

No one could understand how her incredibly delicate hands could place such terrifyingly powerful chess pieces.

Dot 33!

White's second move was to play Black's 3-3 point! ?? Ma Gongling stared wide-eyed in disbelief. No corner, no corner approach, just a direct 3-3 point?

The next moment, Ji Yingting's pale purple eyes narrowed slightly, her long, turquoise hair stopped swaying as if frozen in time, and a strange smile appeared on her cherry lips.

"From this point onward... you will see the absolute gap between us, the pinnacle of our chess skills, and an insurmountable chasm."

"And I will witness a... performance of despair, a clown's struggle... and then, weep, shed tears for your weakness."

Hmm? The pale purple starry eyes gradually magnified in front of Ma Gongling's eyes, and the hairs on her body instantly stood on end, her gray pupils suddenly contracting.

Her light green bangs, held down by the light green ribbon, were slightly disheveled, and Ji Yingting's words amplified in her ears.

At this moment, Ma Gongling finally understood... Ji Yingting was serious.

Regardless of others, at this moment, I am barely able to protect myself.

This game of chess, win or lose.

She wanted to... truly defeat herself, crush herself.

Ji Yingting's words were like a beautiful alarm bell, constantly echoing in Ma Gongling's ears. She placed the black chess piece onto the chessboard and swallowed slightly.

Danger... This woman is extremely dangerous.

His gray eyes narrowed slightly. Since the opening moves had only just begun, it didn't matter which side Black blocked when facing White's 3-3 point.

Pat, pat, pat, pat.

Neither of them stopped moving their hands after that; this basic board position didn't require much thought.

With a soft thud, Ji Yingting's right hand slipped off the dark blue sleeve of her robe and gracefully landed on the chessboard.

Climb down four times? Ma Gongling was slightly puzzled.

With the development of Go, the 3-3 point opening has evolved from a basic corner-living move to a two-line continuous climb.

However... she had never seen this move before. Starting by moving a piece on the second line was already a disadvantageous move, yet it allowed her to gain a strong advantage on the outside.

Of course, since White has gained territory in the corner, climbing three times is also acceptable.

But, crawling around... what does that mean? Ma Gongling's gray eyes were filled with doubt and uncertainty.

She had never seen a player who dared to climb four spaces on the second line after the third point.

Thud... After hesitating for a moment, Ma Gongling jumped again. Since she was climbing from the second route, she couldn't possibly be at a disadvantage.

Next, Ji Yingting took the initiative and secured the last corner that should have belonged to her, without looking back.

A light green ribbon wrapped around Ji Yingting's entire forehead and back of her head, with fine, wispy light green bangs falling across her face.

Her pale green eye makeup gave her a slightly eerie look, and her pair of pale purple starry eyes seemed to pierce through distant time and space as she stared at the chessboard with her eyes slightly narrowed, not blinking.

"Uh... I feel so much pressure." Ma Gongling didn't really want to see Ji Yingting's gaze, so she silently lowered her head and placed a chess piece.

Her playing style is vastly different from that of normal players, and Ma Gongling finds it hard to describe the feeling; it's as if it's a kind of dazzling madness.

Of course... there's another reason why Ji Yingting chose to climb down the second route four times: a reason that Ma Gongling didn't want to think about.

That is, she was unwilling to leave herself even a little territory... As the white player, if Ji Yingting first firmly occupies the territory and then resolves the black player's thick position, she can easily win.

However, at this moment, Ma Gongling no longer had the same mentality of wanting to lose as she did at the beginning of the game, and a black piece fell from her palm.

Feeling the immense pressure emanating from Ji Yingting, she had no choice but to fight back with all her might! Her long, bluish-green hair... was truly long and beautiful, almost matching her chess skills.

At this moment, she looked like a true demon king!

In that instant, Ma Gongling finally realized why so many people called Ji Yingting the "Big Demon King" of Group A, and why so many people thought she was stronger than Shang Gongying. She had previously thought those people were naive.
