The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

Of course, there's nothing special about becoming a professional Go player at the age of twelve. It seems that we have a few twelve-year-olds in our Crescent Moon Province this year, namely Hua Shenxi and An Ruotong. Their performance in Group B is outstanding.

however……

Luo Zhuyu, also from the Meijin Go Academy, was placed in the "group of death," Group A. Therefore, her probability of becoming a professional Go player is extremely low...

However, thinking this, Chu Kuangxi frowned slightly.

In her memory, she had no idea that Ji Wanying was one of the Ji family members who took the professional exam this year, and that she had actually become a professional Go player.

Aside from hearing about her from her family a long time ago, Chu Kuangxi hadn't heard of her much in other provincial or municipal competitions, which just goes to show how weak her presence was.

"Ji Wanying..."

Chu Kuangxi glanced at the purple-haired little girl in the photo one last time, then put the document away...

The little girl with long purple hair was very cute. She was wearing a purple lace Taoist robe and had a beauty mark near her light purple eyes.

Whether it was just his imagination or not, Chu Kuangxi felt that the little girl named Ji Wanying in the photo...

It was as if it was always smiling at her, sending chills down her spine.

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

The epic battle between Ji Yingting and Shang Gongying has finally come to an end, with Ji Yingting winning in the middle game. Her game records and deeds have been written about by many Go newspapers and magazines, leaving only one last opportunity.

Shang Gongying's undefeated streak of victories over several seeded players was ended by Ji Yingting, who then continued her winning streak with unstoppable momentum, achieving a crazy winning streak of 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29 consecutive wins...

The players have become completely numb to Ji Yingting's winning streak.

While Hua Shenxi from Group B also boasts a 29-game winning streak, she falls far short of Ji Yingting, the undisputed "Demon King" of Group A, in terms of fame. Group A is known as the "Group of Death," a gathering place for super players.

By the twenty-fifth day, the gap in performance between the players had widened considerably.

It can be said that the professional exam has entered its final sprint. The winners will rise to the top, while the losers will fall into the abyss.

Ji Yingting, 29 wins and 0 losses.

Shang Gongying, 28 wins and 1 loss.

Choi Jin-ryeol, 28 wins and 1 loss.

Luo Zhuyu, 27 wins and 2 losses.

Quan Shihui, 25 wins and 4 loss.

These are the results of the top five in Group A. When Quan Shihui realized that she had no hope of becoming a professional Go player, she silently lowered her long black hair and gently gritted her teeth.

On the twenty-ninth day, when Luo Zhuyu defeated Ma Gongling by two and a half points, she felt not even a trace of joy.

The last game...

"God, please bless me." Luo Zhuyu's light green bangs gently fell down, obscuring her pale green eyes.

Ji Yingting, Shang Gongying, and Cui Jinlie have already qualified to become professional Go players, while I... am still one step away.

If either of them loses and Luo Zhuyu wins again, there will be four new first dan players in Group A this year.

Of course, in this situation, analyzing this kind of thing is completely meaningless.

Because Cui Jinlie's opponent in the last round is Ji Yingting, while Luo Zhuyu's opponent in the last round is... Shang Gongying.

Yesterday, many chess players had already analyzed that Luo Zhuyu would not be able to become a professional chess player.

Because in the final round of the Group A competition in Yongyue City, Cui Jinlie is bound to lose, and Luo Zhuyu is bound to be defeated.

There's no difference, because both of them will lose.

That's right... Luo Zhuyu knew that Cui Jinlie would definitely lose to Sakuraba-nee in the final round...

But so what? If she can't defeat Shang Gongying... so what?

Only by defeating Shang Gongying can she become a professional Go player, and then her life will be in her own hands.

With her nine transformations, Shang Gongying has already secured her place as a professional Go player. When playing against me, she will at most transform into a four-tailed or five-tailed Go player.

However... Luo Zhuyu also knew that, based on Ma Gongling's analysis, with her own skill level, she probably wouldn't even be able to defeat Sanwei.

Speaking of which, Ji Yingting also encountered a peculiar opponent in the twenty-eighth round, Quan Shetao, a little girl with a black mushroom haircut, who is Quan Shihui's cousin and Quan Jinsheng's twin sister.

Of course, this person's dark chess moves were even more outrageous than the two of them, and were called Super Dark Sound.

In fact, the method involved releasing a loudspeaker the size of a planet to create a deafening noise that would disrupt Ji Yingting's concentration. This method initially infuriated Ji Yingting.

Of course, this was easy to solve. Just use the two long, slender, greenish-brown furry arms of the Forgive Cat to cover Ji Yingting's ears. The huge thickness prevented Quan Shetao's chess skills from interfering with her at all, and she easily won the game.

Afterwards, she was severely punished by Ji Yingting with a "forgiveness storm" and ran out of the competition venue crying.

With a record of 29 wins and 0 losses, after placing the last piece, Ji Yingting stood up from her seat, her long, light green hair swaying.

Then, after a 29-game winning streak, Ji Yingting felt that she had it all figured out... Ji Yingting thought that she should eat ice cream to celebrate. Ji Yingting felt that she was invincible and that no matter what flags she set, she could not fail.

Then, Ji Yingting's plan backfired, and a look of extreme terror suddenly appeared on her beautiful face.

Of course, this mishap doesn't mean she'll lose the game the next day.

It was because she remembered... she seemed to have forgotten to wear underwear today.

However... such a small thing doesn't seem to matter, since she's already wearing a Taoist robe and won't accidentally fall flat on her face and expose her bare bottom. Speaking of falling flat on her face, that kind of thing has never happened to Ji Yingting.

After all, Ji Yingting is blind and has never fallen on flat ground before, so how come the female characters in anime and novels fall on flat ground every day?

Ji Yingting thought that they were indeed characters living in a virtual world, just a group of fake people used by the author to please the readers. They were even more blind than herself, a blind person, and were just used to give out benefits.

"Ah..." Then, Ji Yingting accidentally fell down, and her two slender little hands instantly reached forward.

"Ouch..." A bluish-green ahoge (cowlick) stood up from the top of her head, and Ji Yingting's dark blue Taoist robe skirt was lifted up by herself, causing her to fall face-first onto the soft carpet.

"Wow……"

At the same time, a little girl with black pear-shaped hair walked past Ji Yingting in shock, and the little girl gently covered her cherry-like mouth with her slender hand.

"…………"

The light green ahoge (cowlick) lifted Ji Yingting off the carpet like a propeller. After getting up, she tossed her light green Hime-style long hair and silently straightened her dark blue Taoist robe.

Therefore, along the way, Ji Yingting dared not say or think anything unnecessary.

"I'd like a matcha ice cream!" Ji Yingting said softly.

"Um... I'm sorry, the matcha flavor is sold out," the shop assistant said apologetically.

……

Ugh!!

A hint of sadness suddenly appeared on Ji Yingting's beautiful face. Her fair cheeks puffed up slightly, and a few tears welled up in her pale purple pupils. Her beautiful face stared at the female shop assistant with a slight chill.

Why?! Why did you do this to me?!

Even my favorite green matcha ice cream is uneaten? Ji Yingting almost burst into tears.

To avoid getting tired of it, Ji Yingting only eats matcha ice cream when she's at her happiest!

She had already secured her place as a professional Go player!

When something so joyful happens, something so worth celebrating, can't she even have a small piece of matcha ice cream?! Even just one bite would be nice!!

I want to eat it, I really want to eat it.

Ji Yingting couldn't help but recall the day she became a professional Go player in her previous life.

Matcha ice cream, like a bittersweet tea, leaves a lingering and delightful aftertaste.

It was the matcha ice cream that gave her the confidence to win the second half of the final round of the game; it was the matcha ice cream that made her a professional Go player in her previous life.

Everyone says that girls don't like matcha flavored things, but in his previous life he was a normal boy. After regaining his memories of his past life, Ji Yingting actually prefers matcha ice cream.

How could she not have matcha ice cream today?!

"When can we get the goods?!" Ji Yingting blinked her pale purple eyes and asked persistently.

"Um... probably tomorrow afternoon!" the female shop assistant said apologetically.

"No, no! I want to eat it today!! You guys go and get the supplies now!"

Ji Yingting tossed her long, bluish-green hair and said in a cheeky manner, behaving like a spoiled little girl.

Um... The female clerk was speechless. She explained helplessly, "I'm really sorry, there's a reason why the matcha ice cream was sold out." Then, she led Ji Yingting to a seat in the store.

On a table, a huge plate was piled high with a three-meter-tall green ice cream cone—a three-meter-tall matcha ice cream cone!!! Ji Yingting couldn't get her matcha ice cream because someone had booked all the matcha ice cream in the store!!

"Oh...you like matcha ice cream too?" After learning Ji Yingting's purpose, a girl with long light green hair curiously peeked out from behind the mountain of matcha ice cream, her light green eyes slightly narrowed.

"Yes!" Ji Yingting nodded, her long, light green hair swaying. She really wanted to eat matcha ice cream.

The girl with long, light green hair was about the same height as Ji Yingting and wore a Taoist robe with a long, light green spear attached.

If any other chess players were here, they would definitely recognize her as a professional chess player from the Luo family of Mingyue City!

Her voice was very sweet, like a stream in a dark cave, each flow accompanied by a crisp echo.

That's right... her voice seemed to echo in Ji Yingting's ears.

A slender, jade-like hand emerged from her light green Taoist robe. Her arm was incredibly fair and delicate, and she gently placed matcha ice cream into her mouth with a small spoon.

"Little sister, what's your name? Are you a professional test taker?" The young girl with long, light green hair looked not much older than Ji Yingting, but she acted as if she was certain that Ji Yingting was younger than her.

"Ji Yingting... I'm about to become a professional Go player!"

"Hmm, you have a very beautiful name, little sister Ji Yingting. I agree to share the matcha ice cream with you!"

After she finished speaking, the young girl with long, light green hair chuckled, shifted her body a few times to make room for Ji Yingting on the sofa, and clapped her hands to signal her to sit down.

One light green pupil narrowed slightly, while the other light green pupil suddenly widened.

"My name is Luo Qingsheng, professional sixth dan."

Chapter 266: Genius Lily Girl

pat...

Luo Zhuyu silently placed a black chess piece onto the board with his right hand.

There were two chessboards in front of her, and she was playing chess simultaneously with a woman with green hair and a woman with long silver hair. This was a handicap game.
