The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

...........

On the other side, the pink-haired girl, Hua Shenxi, was playing chess with a girl with long purple pear-shaped hair, sitting in the lounge.

"Are you sure you're okay not to participate in the competition?"

Lou Leying, holding a white chess piece between her fingers, asked softly.

"It's alright, the opponents this afternoon are weak. Ye Xiaomi and Senior Sister An Haimi are enough."

The Flower Goddess Xi proudly shook her pink pear blossom head.

She played all three games in the morning by herself and won them all.

Of course... their opponents in the first two rounds weren't particularly strong, but the Celebrity Dojo team was assigned to the location of the Ji family team...

If they don't score as many points as possible in the first few games, it will be difficult for them to advance.

Hua Shenxi told Lou Leying about this.

"Oh"

Lou Leying responded expressionlessly and placed the chess piece down with a clatter.

Her hairstyle is very similar to that of Hua Shenxi, and they also have some resemblance in appearance.

"There's no other way... I'll just help you improve your chess skills a little bit," Lou Leying said softly.

Of course, in her eyes, Hua Shenxi's Go skills were already quite good, reaching the level of a professional first dan.

However, neither of them was born into a Go family, but rather into a sumo family that is famous throughout the universe.

Without guidance or experience in developing her chess skills, it will be difficult for her to make further progress.

From within her purple sleeves, countless pink butterflies fluttered out, and she gently picked up a white chess piece.

"Nine-Tailed Autumn Water Butterfly... Cousin Flower Goddess Xi, I'll just let you take a quick look at this chess piece after it evolves into its complete form."

If Hua Shenxi can't even make it out of the group stage... how can she impersonate Hua Shenxi and play chess with Ji Heiyu?

Ha ha……

Himeko, wait for my arrival.

Lou Leying sneered and withdrew her slender hand into her purple sleeve.

The complete evolution of the Nine-Tailed Autumn Water Butterfly...?

The pink-haired girl, Hua Shenxi, sitting opposite her, was completely stunned by this sentence.

She is a very strong player, but she is always outmatched in strategic exchanges...

Just like the older sister Ji Yingting, the tragic scene of her big green cat crushing her cute little fox butterfly to tears is still vivid in my mind.

The little cutie was crying so hard, but the cat sat on her and she couldn't move at all!

I heard that Sister Ji Yingting's chess skills have become even stronger, but hers hasn't changed at all. Next time we meet, she'll definitely get bullied even more badly by the cat!

pity……

For so long, she always felt that her chess skills were not evolving at all, and she was always in the same position.

However, at this moment, Lou Leying told her that the Nine-Tailed Autumn Water Butterfly could evolve.

"Cousin Lou Leying, please teach me!!"

The Flower Goddess Xi stared expectantly into her pink cherry blossom eyes.

..........

The game has entered the middle stage, and the match between An Ruotong and Ji Qiuyao has reached a fever pitch.

Hmm... it seems that An Ruotong is indeed much stronger than Ji Qiuyao now.

Sitting in the spectator stands, Ji Yingting swayed her light green twin ponytails.

As the game neared its end, An Ruotong maintained a lead of more than five points, suppressing Ji Qiuyao from the very beginning to the end.

boom!!!!

At the same time, ten enormous arms destroyed the frozen cold currents, and the maple leaves flying everywhere were completely dispersed by the sweeping black storm.

"I give up..."

Slightly unwilling, Ji Qiuyao withdrew her right hand, which had just been lowered, and said somewhat resentfully.

Although she no longer possesses the eerie aura she had when she participated in the Scorpio Cup, her strength has reached a new level, a strength that is... uniquely her own.

"Although I'm a little unwilling, I still need to study more."

Ji Qiuyao shook her head with a wry smile.

wow...

"Don't worry, sister, I will avenge you."

A cold voice came from the stands, and a girl with long, icy blue bangs that covered her eyes stood up.

She wore a light blue, floor-length Taoist robe, and her icy skin was like mist in the clouds, exuding a coolness.

Professional beginner level - Ji Bingyuan...

An Ruotong gripped the chess box tightly with her right hand, looking somewhat nervous.

Snapped……

Just then, a slender arm rested on An Ruotong's shoulder, and long, beige hair fell across her face.

"Let me handle this... You're exhausted; perhaps you're no match for her."

"Let me handle this... You're exhausted; perhaps you're no match for her."

"Um……"

An Ruotong glanced at the blue-haired girl sitting opposite her and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, I've already won four games, so I can take a short break.

Regardless of victory or defeat, after playing four games in a row, her head was already feeling a little heavy.

"Come on in."

An Ruotong sat down next to Ji Yingting, watching as Zhu Huangfu sat down across the chessboard.

Come to think of it, I've never seen her play chess before.

"Oh, it's not Sakuraba-nee herself who's going..."

With one pupil obscured by his icy blue, side-swept bangs, Ji Bingyuan spoke with a slightly unhappy expression.

"Is she very strong?" Zhu Huangfu asked seriously as he sat down in the game chair, holding his milk tea-colored Taoist robe.

"Um……?"

"Ji Yingting, is she very strong?" Zhu Huangfu asked again.

……

"You don't know how good she is, why did you team up with her...?" Ji Bingyuan was speechless and stared at her with a strange expression for a while.

Zhu Huangfu, a professional first dan, achieved this a year earlier than him.

Both their strength and their current situation are unknown.

In the second game, Ji Bingyuan played black, and Zhu Huangfu played white.

Once the machine finished calculating, both players took their respective chess boxes from the chessboard.

"pat"

"pat"

"pat"

"pat"

The pieces were placed so quickly...

Without hesitation, the two players simultaneously played the most conventional opening move in Go: the star point.

The star position is high, indicating a focus on the overall situation; the smaller positions are solid, indicating a focus on combat.

Therefore, the combination of Xingxiaomu is the most common layout to appear in a game, no matter when.

"pat..."

With her slender, jade-like hand, Ji Bingyuan flung aside her ice-blue Taoist robe and placed her third move on Zhu Huangfu's star point.

Little Flying Horn.

pat...

The next second, Zhu Huangfu also quickly picked up a white chess piece and placed it at Ji Bingyuan's star point with a small flying move.

If you only hear the text description, you might think it's a copycat game, but that's not the case.

Because Zhu Huangfu's small flying angle was hung on the inside of the star position angle.

"Um... In that case, Zhu Huangfu's corner attack is directly aimed at Black's small objective. She really dared to place it on the inside?" Several black lines appeared between An Ruotong's brows.

She placed her piece so quickly. Did she just leave without thinking it through...?

Although Go has a high degree of randomness in its opening moves, you should still know the basics!

Upon seeing this move, Ji Yingting's light green eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This move was indeed not good from a strategic point of view... but she didn't think much of it.

Ultimately, the choice of opening moves depends on the player themselves.
