The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

Many years ago, in an ordinary private chess academy in Full Moon Province.

Why...did you come down here?

A little girl with long, snow-white hair was being punished by being made to stand alone in the corner.

"Why do you want to go down here?" the female teacher asked, puzzled.

During the city tournament, when she played against a player whose skill level was significantly lower than hers, she surprisingly made a terrible move that was not commensurate with her skill level.

This behavior also led to her failure to advance to the amateur rank.

Later, when she returned to the chess academy to review the game, the female teacher also criticized her severely.

"..."

After her hands were slaughtered, the white-haired girl remained silent and showed no sign of distress.

Because... she just thought it would be interesting to see where to move, since her opponent had many weaknesses, and she felt that making those weaknesses would lead to some brilliant moves...

Unfortunately, because she didn't have enough liberties, her advantage in the entire game was ultimately destroyed.

But is victory really that important? Is winning the game... really that important?

Even if I don't keep winning, I will become stronger, I will become very strong, because... I have talent.

What's frightening is that this girl named Lü Kuangmei has an unusually weak desire to win, but possesses extremely strong self-confidence.

"The third round of the Three Lives Cup: The Liu Family Dojo vs. the Ji Family."

[Match 1: Professional 1-dan Lü Kuangmei vs. Professional 6-dan Ji Beiyi]

This was a match between two players who were five ranks apart.

Lü Kuangmei...

Upon hearing the name, the girl with long, light green twin ponytails paused slightly, while Ji Yingting, sitting in the viewing hall, showed some interest.

She didn't know what kind of chess player Lü Kuangmei was, but she was very interested to see what kind of moves she would make.

Of course, this time... Ji Yingting and the others arrived at the main battle hall on the first floor. There were many chess players here, but it was much quieter than the previous place.

Although there were only their team and Xiao Qiyu's team at the time, they were still driven crazy by the noise.

This time, An Ruotong was also determined to change locations.

Ji Beiyi was a young girl with long, gray hair that reached her waist and a pair of lifeless eyes.

Of course, she is much older than the girls participating in this year's Sansheng Cup.

He wore a black Taoist robe with the large characters "Ji" engraved on it, and his hands were wrapped in blood-red sleeves.

In the backstage viewing hall, Ji Hongying and Ji Tuntao watched the girl appearing on the screen in silence.

"Have you asked Bingyuan and the others what kind of chess player Lü Kuangmei is?" Ji Hongying asked casually.

In the previous professional examination in Manyue Province, many of the young chess players from the Ji family had played against Lü Kuangmei.

Unfortunately... apart from Ji Zitong, who was the only one to defeat Lü Kuangmei, Ji Xuehu, Ji Bingyuan, Ji Qiuyao and the others all lost.

"I didn't ask. Do you think Auntie will lose?" Ji Tuntao shook her head and asked with a sidelong glance.

"No, she's still very strong."

"How strong is it? Have you played it?"

"no"

"Then how do you know she's strong?"

…………

Ji Hongying's red eyes twitched slightly a few times. It was precisely this tendency of hers to dwell on trivial matters that made her so unlikeable.

"It feels very strong..."

"Then I think I'm very strong too."

The young girl with long, black and gold hair said confidently.

Soon, a beautiful girl with long, snow-white hair walked out from backstage. Apart from her white eyes and white eyebrows, her skin was as white as snowflakes, and her snow-white Taoist robe was pure and flawless.

Lu Kuangmei walked expressionlessly to the seat opposite Ji Beiyi and sat down.

She smiled lightly at Ji Beiyi, then took the white chess box from the chessboard.

"hehe"

"What are you laughing at...?" Ji Beiyi asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing, it's just that sometimes I feel... even if I encounter a player who is much, much stronger than me, as long as I can get the white pieces, I'll have a very high chance of winning."

Lu Kuangmei frowned slightly, her white eyebrows furrowing slightly, and said seriously.

Um……?

Ji Beiyi nodded and casually picked up the black chess box from the side.

Her chess skills are comparable to Luo Qingsheng's. She lost to a junior professional player, but that doesn't mean she will lose to a junior professional player.

Since she acknowledged that her chess skills were inferior to his, yet she didn't feel much fear, she was an opponent worth taking seriously.

So... let's begin.

This time, the Liu Clan's Dojo and the Ji Family's match did not have a referee... because, although the Liu Tianmen's Three Lives Cup was present, they dared not invite one.

Liu Tianmen's presence at the scene was solely to watch Lü Kuangmei's game, without any prior notice to the Manyue Chess Academy.

The Ji family... it's impossible for them to send anyone. After all, they've already sent out Ji Beiyi, a second-generation member, and they don't have any chess players of higher seniority.

pat.

With a flick of his grey sleeves, Ji Beiyi gently placed a black stone, the Star Position.

Um……?

In that instant, her gray eyes, which were filled with deathly aura, narrowed slightly.

What does this feel like?

At the same time, before her eyes, the beautiful girl with long, snow-white hair revealed a desolate face, her slender, fair arms gently picking up a white chess piece.

Her entire body... seemed to merge with the white chess piece, as if she were sitting gracefully among the clouds, amidst a gentle breeze and light rain.

The sunset glow gently illuminates the earth, and the clouds are merely a backdrop to the sky and earth.

A teacup sat before them. Ji Beiyi's body felt incredibly soft and comfortable, and she felt an urge to forget everything and play chess with her.

Everything around me seems too beautiful to exist in this world. This game of chess must be an incredibly wonderful one.

Ji Beiyi felt a slight excitement in her heart. She couldn't wait to play chess with Lü Kuangmei and fight against her.

She is not an ordinary chess player; she has the ability to generate the desire to play chess within herself.

Of course, the desire to play chess does not necessarily equate to the desire to win.

She simply wanted to play chess with Lü Kuangmei, and the game she played was exceptionally beautiful and her style of play was incredibly profound.

However, Ji Beiyi couldn't see it; she couldn't see the slight smile that appeared on Lü Kuangmei's lips.

"I'm sorry, you've lost this game..."

Her long, soft white hair cascaded down her back, and a gentle aura shone between her snow-white brows.

Behind Lü Kuangmei, a huge gust of wind suddenly arose, and two whirlwind-like wings unfolded from behind her.

That was a huge phantom of a crane, a giant crane composed of white, black and red colors, its arched body somewhat mysterious.

Lu Kuangmei flicked her snow-white sleeves, revealing a slender jade hand that picked up a white chess piece.

"Chess Strategy, Landscape Like a Painting"

Chapter 411: Lü Kuangmei Battles Ji Tuntao [Bounty]

Oh, that was a brilliant move, and the shape of the stones is beautiful too.

His playing style is so gentle, very conservative, and he pays great attention to territory. Ji Beiyi... was he always this kind of player?

After fifty moves, the game has entered the middle game, which is the first reaction of many players.

"Ji Beiyi, what on earth is she doing?!"

However, sitting backstage, the girl with long, black-gold curly hair shouted in disbelief.

How can this be called Go?

How can this kind of playing be called playing Go? How can it be called a game of chess?

This is purely a performance game.

pat...

Watching Ji Beiyi place the black chess piece in his hand into the wrong place again and again, countless times, Ji Hongying's heart sank.

She... this chess player named Lü Kuangmei used a chess formation, but what kind of chess formation it was was completely unknown.

Go is a competitive game, not the childish game that Lü Kuangmei and Ji Beiyi are playing right now.

Although to outsiders, or even to many professional chess players, there is nothing wrong with playing chess this way.

The two sides didn't move close together, didn't make any common moves, and their chess positions were very beautiful and their moves were very mysterious. There was nothing wrong with that... Neither Ji Hongying nor Ji Tuntao could find out exactly which move Ji Beiyi made that was wrong.

But can Black really defeat White by playing like this?

You have to understand, such a soft playing style... is fatal for Black, who will have to give White a 7.5-point handicap after the game ends!

How could Ji Beiyi possibly win if he played chess like that?

If you're being distracted by your opponent's moves, why not use those moves?

Lü Kuangmei is definitely not a user of the Dark Chess Formation, so the only possibility is that Ji Beiyi himself has a problem.

Ji Tuntao and Ji Hongying were completely baffled as to what Ji Beiyi was trying to do...

"Peach, you should get ready," Ji Hongying said seriously as the game on the screen drew to a close.
