The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

Inside the cat's body, Ji Yingting's slender right hand landed on the chessboard with a green crescent mark, and the chess piece briefly rubbed against the board.

……

……

A faint tearing sound came from time to time.

A few seconds later, the white chess piece gradually stopped spinning, and Ji Yingting slowly withdrew her right hand.

In the starry sky, the giant cat that had swallowed the moon gave a brief yawn.

If one could observe this chessboard with a microscope at this moment, one would discover that the wood inside the small black dot had been pulverized by Ji Yingting's right-hand move.

"too strong……"

Han Wei murmured to himself in amazement, not only because of Ji Yingting's terrifying chess skills, but also because of this particular move she made.

After fully unleashing his chess skills, Ji Yingting now possesses the most incredible chess strength in the world, surpassing the strength of a cold computer and approaching the very essence of Go.

"No... She will break through the encirclement no matter what..." Cold sweat streamed down Han Wei's face, and he couldn't control his heart.

The pale green moonlight illuminated the entire chessboard, and at that moment, Han Wei could even see Ji Yingting's slightly open pale green eyes through the starry sky.

He knew that he was insignificant in the face of Ji Yingting's chess skills, even smaller than a single cell in the cat's body.

Want to wrap up and kill Ji Yingting's pawn? At his height of 2.2 meters, his outstretched arm couldn't even lift a single white blood cell from a cat's body.

"But I've been craving this match for so long, how can I just give up like this?!" Han Wei lowered his head, trying his best not to look at the huge, terrifying blue-green cat.

The terrifying image of her swallowing the moon whole was deeply etched in her mind.

boom!!

With all his determination, Han Wei slammed all the black chess pieces onto the board.

But in the next instant, his black, choppy bangs were blown back by the greenish-blue airflow.

Boom!! Before he could even pull his hand back!! A flash of blue light appeared, and Ji Yingting's long, blue-green hair transformed into cat fur.

The giant, turquoise cat opened its pale purple starry eyes and glared at him disdainfully. It grabbed a meteorite that had fallen from the sky and slammed it down heavily. The meteorite, with the force of a cannonball, tumbled and embedded itself in the chessboard.

……

His right hand trembled slightly, and with a splash, red liquid oozed from under his fingernails. A tiny, invisible drop of blood fell from Han Wei's fingertip and quickly seeped into the ground.

"No matter what... it's impossible to kill her now." Han Wei stared blankly at the chessboard. Ji Yingting opened her pale green eyes and stared at him expressionlessly. She had broken through all his attacks with just two moves.

However, even if we can't kill her, we must at least minimize the difference in the number of points between us!

"I will no longer fear you, I want to catch up with your power..."

Crack, boom. Crack, boom.

Han Wei gritted his teeth and pressed the timer button; his timer had already started counting down...

However, the difference in the number of points between the black and white sides... remains irreversible!

Step by step, the greenish-blue cat that swallowed the moon opened its huge paws, its two greenish-blue paws grabbing meteorites and throwing them one after another at the chessboard.

With each white comet accompanied by the pale green light of a crescent moon as it fell, Han Wei's heart would clench.

…………

A few minutes later, his huge right arm, which had been holding the chess box, gradually lowered, and he lowered his head, letting his black, tousled hair casually cover his cheeks.

"It's over...it's enough...be proud."

Ji Yingting sighed softly, her slender right hand grasping a white comet, which transformed into a beam of cyan light that shot into the chessboard.

Wow!!!

In the end, the enormous, turquoise cat that spanned the entire moon dissipated as a stream of green smoke from a pipe.

Ji Yingting's long, light green hair fell loosely behind her again, the green light completely disappeared, and starlight filled the ends of her hair. Only around her remained a ring of indelible starlight.

Chapter 87: The Case of Referees Slacking Off

Ji Yingting sighed softly, her slender right hand grasping a white comet, which transformed into a beam of cyan light that shot into the chessboard.

Wow!!!

In the end, the enormous, turquoise cat that spanned the entire moon dissipated as a stream of green smoke from a pipe.

Ji Yingting's long, light green hair fell loosely behind her again, the green light completely disappeared, and starlight filled the ends of her hair. Only around her remained a ring of indelible starlight.

"Do we need to count the points again? You've lost by 17 and a half points."

Ji Yingting asked in a low voice, her bluish-green bangs falling down and obscuring her curved bluish-green eyebrows.

With a soft "whoosh," Ji Yingting exhaled, a few drops of sweat dripping from her face.

Although she is more skilled at using the board position than before, she still feels slightly tired after starting a game, which is normal.

"17 points? I actually lost by that much?" Han Wei stared at the chessboard expressionlessly, his hands clenched tightly.

For professional players, a difference of 2 or more (4 points) is a significant gap...

Damn it, Han Wei lowered his head unwillingly, his black, tousled hair obscuring his pupils.

I thought I would no longer be afraid of the sheer size of her chess pieces... but when I saw that bluish-green cat that could swallow the entire moon, I couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Her chess skills have become stronger than before, and it's not just herself who has become stronger!

"I thought I could gain territory by attacking her isolated piece, but instead of running away, she chose to penetrate deeper. Perhaps, my encirclement is nothing but a flawed joke in front of her."

After trying so hard for so long, I still haven't caught up with her... I still lost miserably... The gap in skill between us is almost insurmountable.

Ji Yingting stood up and patted her slightly numb bottom after sitting for a long time.

She turned and left without tidying up the chess pieces, because Han Wei knew she was blind.

After glancing at her receding figure, Han Wei remained silent. He raised his head and quietly began tidying up the chess pieces for both sides.

Ji Yingting walked out of the venue, carrying a water lily-colored robe and swaying her long, light green hair. She never looked at Han Wei's dejected expression, nor did she want to.

Because she believed that he could rise from her powerful shadow once again.

He will turn his depression and disappointment into motivation to go further, and he will definitely become stronger.

Ji Yingting hopes that when the two sides play against each other again, he can become a player who is on par with him.

Ji Hongying and Niu Xiaochai both had complicated expressions. Ji Yingting's opponent in this round was not weak, and at the same time, they had witnessed this very exciting game.

"My sister's Go skills should be at a professional high level, but... when exactly did she start learning Go?" Ji Hongying asked, pinching her long, fiery red hair with some confusion.

At the same time, a question arose in her mind.

Between her and her sister... who is stronger?!

Watching her sister's game against the big guy today, she realized that her sister's chess skills were no weaker than her own.

"Sister...can I play chess with you?"

After watching her sister's explosive chess game, Ji Hongying suddenly felt a strong desire to play chess with her sister, preferably as soon as possible! She wanted to play chess with her sister right now!

……

……

After tidying up the chess pieces, Han Wei stood up wearily from his seat.

Having endured such intense soul pressure, he still hasn't recovered from his dejected state.

Ok?

Just then, he froze slightly, turned around and looked down, only to see a burly old man put his hand on his shoulder.

Fortunately, the burly Chief Referee Bai Li himself is nearly 1 meters tall, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to reach Han Wei's shoulder.

Feeling slightly ashamed, the middle-aged man said calmly, "Child, you've done very well."

"……Thanks"

“It’s normal that you lost because your opponent was too strong,” Bai Li said in a matter-of-fact tone.

Han Wei's expression immediately darkened, and he looked at the tall chief referee with a strange expression. Was he mocking him?

……

……

The opponent was too strong? Was he really praising someone?

Ji Hongying chuckled and walked away, clutching her fiery red hair. Ji Yingting and Han Wei had almost used up their time, and the other players' games had mostly ended long ago.

However, Chief Judge Bai Li will probably let that tall guy join his seminar... In that case, I'll keep a close eye on this tall guy.

"Now, let's go find my sister and have dinner together..." Ji Hongying left the venue with a hint of anticipation.

*********************

"Strange, why do I feel so tired this afternoon? I was in charge of dozens of matches!! By the way, aren't there nearly 30 referees in the arena? Are they slacking off?"

An ordinary-looking male referee complained as he walked, saying that there were so many candidates waiting to count chess pieces this afternoon that they didn't even have time to catch their breath.

A young-looking female referee, while eating her hamburger, said, "I don't know... but I saw several referees, oh right, it seemed like five or six people were watching the game between the two players."

"You mean five or six referees watching two people play chess together? Are they that good? They're just two amateur players, what's so interesting about that?" the male referee asked doubtfully.

"Yes, it's that tall guy, you should have seen him before, right? The boy who looks very tall, his opponent seems to be a girl with long green hair in a bun, she's very pretty, a very cute girl."

"Green hair? Oh! You mean that girl with the strange eyes?"

The male referee suddenly realized that he had a very deep impression of Ji Yingting. Yesterday's incident of referee Ji Hongying hitting a player seemed to be related to that girl with long light green hair.

The female referee nodded and said, "Yes, it was their match. Although I only glanced at it and left, I noticed that even Chief Referee Bai Li seemed to be watching very attentively!"

As the two voices faded into the distance, a girl with long, flaxen curly hair emerged from the nearby restroom, shaking the water droplets still clinging to her hands.

"Uh..." Niu Xiaochai, standing not far behind the two, had a slightly complicated expression. Oh no... I was so focused on watching Junior Sister Sakuraba's game this afternoon that I completely forgot I was a referee!

If it weren't for the conversation between the two referees reminding her, Niu Xiaochai would have been planning to continue watching Ji Yingting's game tomorrow.
