Chapter 51: Honor and Disgrace

At 12 noon, move 57, seal the chess!

At two o'clock in the afternoon, in the 62nd move, Taya Yukihiro showed a solemn expression for the first time.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in the 63rd move, after an hour-long test, Taya Xinghi finally landed the chess piece.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, in the 73rd move, the frown on Taya Xingyang's face became deeper and deeper.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, on the 97th move, the chessboard came to an end.

Ta Ya travels abroad and surrenders!

Bangzi Chinese Chess Academy, viewing room.

Everyone was not surprised that Ta Ya Xing Yang had to admit defeat. From the fact that Ta Ya Xing Yang's moves were getting slower and slower, everyone knew that he was in a tough battle.

However, when the result came, everyone couldn't help but talk about it. After all, it was Taya Xingyang!

Before the game started, who would have thought that Taya Yukihiro would lose in the middle of the game?

Even the Chinese delegation, which was "infinitely" optimistic about Li Jie, did not dare to make such an optimistic judgment.

The title of 'the best Go player in Country R' is not something Taya Xingyang claims for himself, but he earned it step by step.

'Teacher, why are you doing this?'

Looking at the two sunspots in the corner of the chessboard, Ogata couldn't help but murmur to himself. At the same time, huge doubts arose in his heart.

The teacher's play today is very strange!

If there is anyone here who knows Taya Yuhihi's strength best, no one knows it better than Ogata.

Before the game started, Ogata had never thought that his teacher would lose, but he never thought that his teacher would lose so...so disgracefully.

That's right, after thinking about it for a long time, Ogata could only describe this match as 'disgraceful'.

Because the teacher obviously did not show what he is best at today, today's game of chess was very awkward and contradictory from the beginning to the end.

Many of these hands have the flavor of ‘experimentation’.

Because of this, Ogata doesn't understand.

Go contains countless possibilities, and no one can guarantee that he will win every game, not even Taya Xingyang.

But teachers shouldn't lose like this.

At this moment, Kuwahara Inbo's iconic laughter came to Ogata's ears again.

"Oh haha, interesting, really interesting."

Ogata turned his head and glared at Kuwahara. At this time, his heart was very confused, and Kuwahara's smile was naturally regarded as 'ridicule' by him.

After being glared at by the junior, Sang Yuan was surprisingly lifeless. He smiled and shook his head, as if he was a little disappointed.

"Young people will be young people."

After saying this, without waiting for Ogata to react, Kuwahara stood up and slowly left the observation room with his hands behind his back.

As he walked, Sang Yuan thought about the chess game just now. After a moment, he only heard him sigh quietly and thought to himself.

'As expected of a Tayan celebrity, he can afford it and put it down.'

'Perhaps only someone like him who is committed to Go can reach the legendary realm.'

Kuwahara knew very well that he and Taya Xinghi had never been the same person. For Taya Xinghi, Go was everything.

On the contrary, Go is just a part of life for him. Besides Go, he still has many things that he can't let go of.

Such as reputation, and then money.

As the saying goes, things become strange as they age, and people become refined as they age. Kuwahara, who is nearly sixty years old, obviously fits the latter category.

There is obviously something wrong with Taya Yukihiro today. This is a fact that everyone can see, but there are only a few people who can truly understand Taya Yukihiro's intentions.

Unfortunately, Kuwahara is one of them.

Not long after the chess game started in the morning, Kuwahara began to think about the crux.

In the afternoon, Kuwahara, who had been thinking about it for a long time, finally figured out what Taya Yuhiro was thinking.

Taya Xingyang learns from ‘someone’ again.

Today's game of chess is the answer he taught 'someone'.

Although today's game of chess is very important, it is related to promotion to the Samsung Cup, and it is related to Taya Xinghi's reputation and face.

Logically speaking, Taya Xingyang should not use an immature tactical system on such an important occasion.

But that’s what Taya Xingyang used!

For this reason, even if you lose, you will not hesitate.

To do this, it takes great courage to change places. Kuwahara asked himself, he would definitely not be able to do it.

This was exactly what he admired about Ta Ya Xingyang.

However, could ‘that person’ be that young man?

impossible!

Kuwahara immediately rejected this speculation because this possibility was really a bit fanciful.

No.

etc.

It's not necessarily impossible.

Suddenly, Kuwahara suddenly remembered that "point three-three" move, which Ogata had used in the last Honinbo round-robin competition.

If I remember correctly, Ogata told the media at the time, "The first person to do this was a child."

Later, the reporter asked if the child was Taya Ryo, and Ogata expressed it tactfully.

'You will definitely know the future.'

child?

future?

Could it be that the child Ogata refers to is the Chinese boy?

If that were the case, then everything today would make sense.

Perhaps Taya Yukihiro had played against that kid before, and he probably lost that game of chess.

But Taya Xinghi learned a lot from it.

Today is the moment when Taya Xingyang confirms what he has learned. At the same time, he also wants to tell the young man through this game of chess.

'I, Taya Yuhiro, am not afraid of any new wave, because I will learn more from it, and then use what I learn to defeat the new wave!'

Thinking of this, Sang Yuan paused slightly and unconsciously touched his chin.

This is quite similar to Taya Yuhiro's style.

Time goes back a few minutes.

After surrendering, Taya Xinghi still sat upright and his face remained calm, as if he didn't care about winning or losing at all.

On the other side, the staff responsible for recording the chessboard and the reporters on the scene were completely shocked by Tayaya Yukihiro's act of admitting defeat.

However, what shocked them even more was yet to come, when Taya Xingyang spoke to the Chinese young man in a very familiar tone.

"How about this game of chess?"

"Very good, amazing!"

Li Jie gave a thumbs up and expressed his inner thoughts sincerely.

Taya Xingyang's ability to understand the secrets of 'Point San San' and 'Mi's Flying Knife' without anyone's guidance is simply a cheating performance.

The reason why Li Jie won today is entirely because he stands on the shoulders of giants. He understands AI Go better than Taya Yukihiro.

'Next time, I'm afraid it won't be that simple if you want to win against him.'

Although Taya Xinghi lost this game of chess, he was honored even though he lost because his vision had broken through the limitations of the times.

After this battle, Li Jie even suspected that if Taya Xingyang was given a little more time, the opponent might be able to truly master these two big tricks.

"I'm looking forward to the next match."

"Me too."
