The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

"call"

An Ruotong's eyes widened slightly for a few seconds, her face gradually shifting from calm to a somewhat ferocious expression, and a hint of anger appeared in her beautiful crimson eyes.

"Oh dear, are you angry..." Ji Yingting withdrew her right hand, gently covered her mouth with the light green sleeve of her left hand, and sat back down in her seat with her jade feet covered by white over-the-knee stockings.

"Girls who get angry so easily aren't cute. This is a very sincere piece of advice from your beautiful older sister to you, this unlovable little dwarf. Remember what I say, and be a cute little puppy, okay?"

Ji Yingting continued to provoke An Ruotong, her right hand reaching down to grab the top of the white over-the-knee stockings at the base of her thigh.

The exposed, soft, white flesh of her thigh was pulled up, then snapped back with a soft "thud".

"You said...I'm a shorty? Take that back! You ugly old woman!!"

An Ruotong glared angrily at Ji Yingting with her crimson eyes. Her medium-length black hair was draped behind her and gradually floated up from the sky. The thick black hair on her head looked like millions of ugly tentacles baring their fangs at Ji Yingting.

"woo"

The little girl with black hair and red eyes slightly parted her pink lips, pinched her lips with two fingers, and whistled softly in a voice that only Ji Yingting could hear.

A simple yet ancient whistle sounded from her lips, and gradually... the sound of the bell spread endlessly in all directions.

Something's switch... she turned on.

Chapter 90: Chess Moves - Hungry Ghost Path [Animal World]

"woo"

The little girl with black hair and red eyes slightly parted her pink lips, pinched her lips with two fingers, and whistled softly in a voice that only Ji Yingting could hear.

In Ji Yingting's ears, a simple and ancient whistle sound came from her mouth, and gradually... it spread in all directions without end.

Something's switch... has been turned on.

That was... a door, a colossal, pitch-black door. Ancient and mysterious patterns unfurled a massive, pitch-black wing, and a black vortex slowly emerged.

The desolate, bleak, and deathly earth slowly enveloped Ji Yingting's long, bluish-green hair.

"Waaaaaah!" With a pitiful cry, a long-haired woman in red standing not far away smiled and raised her eerie blood-red eyes.

"...What is this? A chess move?"

Ji Yingting looked at everything in front of her with some confusion. A white skeleton slowly walked over from a distance, carrying a white longsword in its hand.

With a "thud," An Ruotong's first move landed on Ji Yingting's star point in the lower left corner.

With a soft "thud," Ji Yingting gently raised her right hand, her face showing a puzzled expression. She placed her first move in the upper right corner, just outside her eye.

Sitting quietly, Ji Yingting watched in bewilderment as the skeleton slowly approached her, until it was completely close.

"What kind of animal is this... Is it a rhinoceros? Or a bear?"

Ji Yingting opened her pale purple starry eyes and patted the skull's bald head with a curious gaze.

“I’ve heard that rhinoceros hide is very tough, so this must be a rhinoceros!!” Ji Yingting reached out and slapped the white head of the skull.

The skull's pupils were somewhat dull, and it stared at Ji Yingting without saying a word.

"Roar!!!" Just then, a huge roar drew Ji Yingting's attention again, and she saw a clown-faced wooden puppet doll hanging from strings falling down in front of her.

Hehehehe

The enormous wooden puppet revealed a sinister smile, and it laughed maniacally at Ji Yingting.

Its huge mouth opened, and a mermaid zombie covered in green pustules slowly crawled out. The roar just now came from the zombie's mouth.

With a "thud," An Ruotong placed a chess piece again, this time with her eyes closed.

With a "thud," Ji Yingting placed her second move without hesitation at the 3-3 position.

After the chess piece was placed, Ji Yingting curiously pried open the mermaid's mouth and examined it. "What kind of animal is this? Is it a snake? My kindergarten teacher said snakes can crawl."

Speaking of which... what exactly is her chess strategy? Is she using some strange animals to distract me? No, I can't think too much about it!!

Ji Yingting's light green eyebrows furrowed slightly. Even though she had seen the world from God's perspective, she would never pay attention to the animals living in the forests of nature, since she would just glance at them.

I need to focus on the game... but... I really want to watch...

Ji Yingting hesitated, unable to suppress her curiosity as she had never seen these creatures before...

"Hmph, how about that... you're stunned by my chess moves, old woman?"

An Ruotong revealed her blood-red eyes and said smugly.

She rarely opens her moves when playing against her peers, because most children who have seen her moves are so frightened they'd wet themselves or faint.

……

However, when she saw Ji Yingting's actions clearly, her gaze suddenly froze.

Ji Yingting was seen touching the top of the skull with her left hand while fiddling with the mermaid zombie's large mouth with her right.

"Your chess moves are very interesting. Is it called Animal World?"

"Hey, I have to apologize to you, little sister. Could you make more animals for me to see?" Ji Yingting's voice was a little urgent as she clasped her hands together and pleaded with An Ruotong.

……

……

An Ruotong fell silent for a moment, her blood-red eyes fixed on Ji Yingting without uttering a word.

"What's wrong, little sister?"

"Hahahaha, my formidable chess skills were actually underestimated by an ugly old woman!!! How laughable!! Let me scare you to death!!"

An Ruo's blood-red eyes twitched upwards as she burst into maniacal laughter.

Her maniacal laughter immediately attracted the attention of all the contestants at the first ten tables, as well as a female referee standing behind Ji Yingting.

Fiery red hair cascaded down Ji Hongying's back. She casually played with the strands of hair with her right hand, but Ji Hongying did not stop An Ruotong.

Because my sister is blind... it's impossible for her scary chess moves to distract her. On the contrary... I should thank you for helping my sister understand the world better, even if... it's a ghost.

As An Ruotong shouted wildly, many chess players felt a strange chill.

----------

"Chess Strategy, Hungry Ghost Path, Complete Liberation"

An Ruotong said coldly, as darkness gradually enveloped everything. Skeletons, female ghosts, puppets, and zombies were all absorbed into the vortex of darkness.

Boom! In Ji Yingting's eyes, a gigantic arm rolled up from the ground, its terrifying body, thousands of meters long, blotting out the sky.

Countless ugly, giant conjoined demons lowered their heads and stared at Ji Yingting. Behind them grew a pair of huge purple wings, and their flesh was glued together at the waist.

The disgusting mountain of flesh spiraled and grew, soon taking full shape.

"It has purple wings, it's a bat!!" Ji Yingting exclaimed excitedly, tugging at her bluish-green hair.

---------

"This child... I've heard of her. Even many female professional Go players don't want to play against her... because they're all afraid of her moves. It's ridiculous."

At table number one, a rather handsome young man with black hair and a buzz cut crossed his arms and spoke, a smile of extreme confidence playing on his lips.

"Woman, you're very beautiful. If you lose, how about becoming my girlfriend?" The black-haired, crew-cut boy stared at the girl with dry, yellow hair in front of him and said arrogantly, crossing his legs.

"Who...are you...?"

Ji Qiuyao's withered yellow hair covered her eyebrows. The situation on the chessboard between the two was extremely complicated. A few drops of sweat gradually fell from the withered yellow maple leaf hair on her forehead.

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

"Me? Someone who's recently been studying the game records of a player even more skilled than Honinbo Shusaku," Longchou muttered to himself, glancing at Ji Yingting not far away.

Chapter 91: The Fifth Round Ends

"Waaaaaah, waaaaaah, I lost to the old woman, waaaaaah!" With her long black hair disheveled, An Ruotong ran out of the venue in tears.

……

Everyone looked at the figure who ran away crying, somewhat puzzled. It was a little girl with long black hair.

Ji Yingting gently put away the white chess box. Because she was not intimidated by An Ruotong's chess moves, she won quite easily.

"That makes five wins. It's good to teach this disobedient little girl a lesson," Ji Yingting smiled. When An Ruotong realized that her moves were not working against her, she quickly broke down.

Five rounds left... Ji Yingting stood up, rubbing her bluish-green hair.

That little girl's skills weren't bad at all, but unfortunately, her mental fortitude was just too poor... She liked to provoke others and was easily angered. Elementary school students are indeed hard to handle.

The last bat that came out was quite interesting... Are bats really such ugly creatures? No wonder everyone hates her.

As Ji Yingting recalled the scene of An Ruotong unleashing her chess moves, she walked towards the corridor.

"Hahaha, let me show you my chess skills!"

Just as Ji Yingting passed by Ji Bingyuan's table, she slowly stopped.

Ji Bingyuan's opponent was a man with medium-length purple hair and a black eye patch over his right eye.

The purple-haired boy was currently placing his right hand on the eye patched with an eye and shouting in a childish manner.

"Chess position? I don't sense anything at all. What exactly is his chess position?"

Ji Yingting thought to herself with some confusion. She stood beside Ji Bingyuan and waited for a while, but she still did not feel the kind of soul-level pressure that others exerted when they released their chess moves.

At this moment, Ji Bingyuan's face was covered in cold sweat, and her icy blue pupils dared not look directly at the boy. She timidly lowered her head to look at the chessboard.

She wasn't scared, but embarrassed.

Ji Bingyuan's ice-blue bangs covered her eyebrows, her blue eyebrows twitched slightly, and countless goosebumps rose on her body.

"Haha, how about it? Am I strong? Scared out of your wits?" The purple-haired boy laughed arrogantly.

"..."

"Chess formation, Earth Explosion Star!!! Bombard her!!!! Hahahaha!"

Seeing the strange looks from the people around her, Ji Bingyuan blushed, because... her opponent hadn't used any strategic moves at all...
