Bai Song insisted that he would never withdraw from the competition.
This made everyone very embarrassed.
No one expected that the matter would become so serious. Even the referee hesitated to discuss whether to suspend the game and wait until the players recovered from their injuries before resuming the third round at another date.
After Bai Song heard this, he smiled coldly: "Who else dares to believe your promise?"
The meaning of Bai Song's words was obvious. He clearly meant that he had lost trust in the Japanese Chess Academy after experiencing the first game of chess.
If it had been anyone else, Dongying Chess Academy might have been able to act arbitrarily and forcibly interrupt the game.
But the other party is an envoy of the Tang Dynasty after all. If the other party does not get their consent, the game will be interrupted directly, and there is no telling what will happen next.
In the end, a group of people couldn't persuade Bai Song, so the game could only continue.
From beginning to end, Bai Song's opponent, Master Kira, never spoke.
The chess game continued, and Minamoto Kira's expression gradually became calmer, not moved by the amount of blood on the chessboard.
In his opinion, the chess academy used such extreme means to win the last game of chess, and how important the outcome of this game was.
And the will shown by his opponent is admirable enough.
Since the opponent wanted to achieve fame and the chess academy wanted to win, he would accomplish all of this.
Letting the chess game continue until the last moment is the best result.
Minamoto Kira has not forgotten yesterday's instructions. He doesn't need to worry about anything, he just needs to slow down the progress of the chess game.
There are more and more discussions from the outside world, and it is even more confusing to see that the progress of the chess game is so slow.
Time passed by minute by second, and the winner of the third game was already known, but Master Kira still did not admit defeat.
The game that was supposed to end in the afternoon was suddenly postponed until midnight.
At night, the streets of Kyoto, Japan were still crowded with people, everyone was waiting for the results of the game.
In the end, a game of chess took five hours, and there were no stones left on the chessboard.
The Tang Dynasty chess player won today's game with a huge advantage of dozens of points.
In the chess courtyard, everyone watched as the Tang Dynasty chess player was carried away by a girl, covered in blood, and not sure whether he was alive or dead.
The Tang Dynasty chess player persisted in playing the third game despite being poisoned, and won the final victory.
Japanese people look forward to such a plot and admire such a character, but it is a pity that the person who accomplished all this is a Tang Dynasty chess player.
Minamoto Kira appeared in the square, looking a little depressed when facing everyone's gaze.
There are no more spectators below the pavilion, which is a result that some people cannot face.
"You have already lost tomorrow, why are you still refusing to admit defeat?"
Some angry people in the crowd couldn't help shouting questions.
"Why is the opponent poisoned?"
"You should give us an explanation!"
Minamoto Kira was very calm: "Because... I really don't want to lose."
"It doesn't matter if you lose, the Chess Academy has also lost the face of all our chess players! Even if you win the game with despicable means, I won't agree with it. The Chess Academy cannot represent Japanese Go!"
An old voice came out, and Mu Zhi walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Minamoto Kira.
"This is……"
"This is Mr. Mu Zhi! The oldest group of chess players in the chess academy."
"Hasn't he been expelled from the Chess Academy? Why is he here?"
"I heard that he almost lost half his life when he came back because he was defeated by today's Datang chess players in the Tang Dynasty."
"He was also defeated by a Tang chess player. How should Master Kira face it today?"
"Master Kira's status in the chess academy is extraordinary, so he must not receive the same treatment, right?"
Mu Zhi's appearance attracted more discussions.
Mu Zhi looked at Minamoto Kira: "Can you wash away your sins with such a simple sentence?"
"I have tried my best in the third round of chess, what else do you want?"
"We tried our best when we were in Datang, but what was the result? I can't ask you anything. After all, I have been expelled from the Chess Academy, but now you need to give an explanation to everyone in Japan."
Minamoto Kira was silent for a long time, and finally knelt down solemnly, kowtowed in front of everyone, and said, "I'm sorry."
…
Bai Song returned to Bieyuan and declined everyone's visits.
Miss Yoshiko hesitated outside for a long time, and finally chose to leave silently.
Bai Song's room was not deserted at all, and all the women who usually didn't bother Bai Song were here.
Liu'er, A Ling and Bai Feng heard that Bai Song was suddenly poisoned and immediately found Bai Song to see what was going on.
After looking at it, I found that Bai Song was fine at all. Apart from being covered in blood, his complexion had gradually improved.
Bai Song didn't say anything, but Liu'er saw through Bai Song's heart at a glance and explained to the others: "The poison was poisoned by the young master himself. The Japanese people poisoned it, but the poison was too weak to achieve today's effect.
So the young master added some new poisons to himself in order to create public opinion in the chess game."
"Is there such a thing?" A Ling complained, "It's just nonsense."
Bai Feng remained silent. Compared to before, this girl was much quieter, but her eyes looking at Bai Song were not as pure and clear as before.
Bai Song lay on the bed and smiled: "It's a pity that you haven't seen Go Boy."
The three women were all stunned, not understanding what this man was talking about.
At this time, Bai Rou opened the door and came in, saying with a surprised look: "Brother, the chess player from the chess academy knelt down and apologized in public."
"Ah?" the three women said in unison, all expressing great surprise.
Bai Song shook his head helplessly, with an expression that he had already seen clearly: "No need to make a fuss, it's just their ancestral craftsmanship."
…
The third round of chess is over.
The Tang chess player won.
The next day, the outside debate did not end, but Datang chess players continued to issue challenges.
This time, the goal of the Tang Dynasty chess players was the legendary Japanese chess master.
Things once again caused an uproar.
Even Master Kira has been defeated. Can the chess master who represents the highest level of Japanese Go continue to hide?
Everyone is waiting for the chess academy's response.
However, the Japanese Chess Academy has become low-key since this failure.
There was no response, and the challenge from the Tang Dynasty chess players seemed to have fallen into disuse.
This time, the reputation of Dongying Chess Academy really suffered an unimaginable blow.
I had never heard any public discussion about the chess academy before, but now I can hear doubts and doubts everywhere.
And at this juncture, a chess club called Honinbo Go Dojo opened.
Based on the principle of bringing together Go lovers from all over the world, we provide a place for daily communication among chess players.
More importantly, this Go dojo does not welcome Go players by name.
The Go dojo was bustling now, and it was the first time that a chess club dared to stand openly against the chess academy.
Even people who don’t know chess will go and have a look.
On the opening day, the Go dojo was crowded with people. Unlike the chess academy, there were no barriers to entry and no hierarchy.
With just a cup of tea, you can play, watch and learn chess all day long.
