Time flies to noon, and with the sound of a gong, the Shendu chess player's challenge to Da Zhan finally comes to an end.
After the entire challenge, there were no less than 400 chess players participating in the battle, but so far, no one can defeat the great Zhan players in chess.
In Go, there is no one who can survive in the Great Zhan Kingdom.
The Shendu chess player was completely defeated!
Seeing this result, the people of Shendu and the chess players could not accept it for a while.
"Oh my god, how could this happen?"
"Are we really that bad?"
"What a shame, just one piece was missing, just one chess piece. Even if it was just one more 'pawn', I could beat the opponent in chess..."
…
There were sounds of annoyance and depression in the square, and the people on Da Zhanguo's side had smiles on their faces and sarcasm in their eyes. Finally, Wen Zong sarcastically said: "I thought Da Xuanguo's chess skills were so good.
It turns out it’s nothing more than that!”
As soon as these words were spoken, someone from their mission immediately echoed them, "That's right, luckily they invented chess here, and they learned it a month or two earlier than us, but now no one can beat us. This is really
It’s so ridiculous, hahaha…”
Hearing the other party's unabashed ridicule, the people in Shendu and the Academy of Arts all had long expressions on their faces.
A student from the liberal arts college immediately retorted angrily: "Why are you so arrogant? The official competition hasn't started yet. Whether we can do it or not depends on the next competition with us!"
"That's right, our School of Liberal Arts is your ultimate opponent. Don't be too happy too early!"
"Next we will let you see how powerful our Daxuanguo chess players are!"
When a group of liberal arts students were confronting the Zhan Kingdom envoy, no one noticed that Long Xuan, the Sixth Prince, secretly sneaked over to the liberal arts academy at some point and found several Wenzong bosses in the liberal arts academy.
, and then whispered a few words.
When the Wenzong bosses heard this, their faces showed a hint of surprise, "Is what you said feasible?"
Long Xuan looked solemnly and said: "Then do these great scholars really think that the chess players from the liberal arts academy can beat the great Zhan Kingdom in chess? So for the current plan, we can only take a gamble, and the result will not be the same anyway.
Worse."
The big guys from the liberal arts academy pondered for a moment, and finally replied: "Okay, if we really get chess in the lottery later, we will consider your suggestion."
After receiving a positive answer, Long Xuan nodded, then quickly returned to Su Pingan and gave the latter a positive look.
When Su Ping'an saw this, his expression softened slightly, and then he looked at the field again.
The previous challenges had consumed a lot of energy for the chess players of Da Zhan State, so they adjusted their breath for a while and took a rest. After their energy recovered, they started the highlight of the day.
The contest between the chess players from the Great Zhan Kingdom and the chess players from the Chinese Academy of Arts has officially begun!
"Let's draw lots first!"
The officials of the Ministry of Etiquette brought up the boxes responsible for drawing lots according to the rules set before.
To show fairness, both parties checked the box to make sure there were no hidden notes or anything inside. Then both parties jointly wrote ten notes and threw them into the box.
Da Zhanguo advocated the battle of Go, so naturally they wrote about Go.
The liberal arts academy is more interested in chess, so naturally what they write about is chess.
After writing the note, both parties folded the note in public, sealed it with wax, and then kneaded it into smooth balls of the same size. This was also done to prevent anyone from tampering with the note. They would wait for the drawing of lots.
I took out the note they wrote.
This really takes the anti-cheating work to the extreme!
After everything was done, the wax pellets were put into the box. After the box shook for a while, the wax pellets inside could no longer tell which one was 'Go' and which one was 'Xiangqi'.
The rules of this challenge were still best-of-five games. In the first draw, Da Zhanguo, as a guest, drew first, so a chess player came up, casually reached into the box, and quickly took out a wax pill.
After crushing the wax pill and opening it, the official of the Ministry of Etiquette's face darkened, "The first game...Go!"
"What, Go?"
"Oops, the chess players from the Great Zhan Kingdom are so powerful, can we still win?"
"Don't worry, our liberal arts chess players are not vegetarians either, so they should be fine!"
…
Seeing the results of the first lot drawing, the scene immediately caused a commotion.
The strength displayed by the Go players of the Great Zhan Kingdom was really impressive, so this could not help but make the people in the city of God a little worried.
In the liberal arts academy, the faces of all the students also darkened.
Against Go, this is not a good choice for them.
However, many students from the chess branch immediately stood up and shouted with high spirits: "What are you afraid of? It just suits my purpose. I also want to see how good this chess player from the Great Zhan Kingdom is!"
"
"That's right, one person can play blind chess against ten people. It's not like we can't do it. There's nothing to be afraid of!"
"Let me do it, I've wanted to meet them for a long time..."
Seeing that the people in the chess branch were so active, the big guys in the liberal arts academy were very pleased. After some discussion, they selected one of them who had good strength and was quite famous in the chess academy.
The students stood up and accepted the challenge of Da Zhan.
As soon as this student appeared, some of the onlookers immediately recognized him.
"It's Fang Yiming, the top chess player in the Chess Branch. I know him!"
"Fang Yiming, I've heard that it seems that he was the leader in the last Go and Sword Competition held in the city of Gods!"
"Yes, it's him!"
"We should win this time!"
…
Su Ping'an was also in the crowd. Hearing that 'Fang Yiming' was so famous, he couldn't help but take a second look.
Fang Yiming was seen to be an adult man in his late twenties or late twenties. He was thin and medium-looking. He also had a short beard on his chin, which made him look more mature and stable.
Judging from his appearance alone, this person is not particularly outstanding, but Long Xuan next to him introduced something different to Su Pingan.
"You may not think that Fang Yiming looks ordinary now, but as early as more than ten years ago, he was also a famous genius prodigy in Shendu. When he was twelve years old, he began to excel in Go.
Guangcai, who has won many chess halls and chess club leaders. When he was thirteen years old, he could play chess with an old national player who was famous among the gods at that time, and he won more than he lost...
Later, the liberal arts college also saw Fang Yiming's outstanding performance in chess. Just like you, he was admitted in advance at a weak age and was admitted to the college for further study.
Over the years, he has been studying chess records behind closed doors and rarely shows up, so no one except the elders of the Academy of Arts knows his specific strength.
But according to students from the School of Liberal Arts, his current Confucianism and Taoism cultivation are already at the peak of literary masters, and he is only half a step away from reaching the realm of Wen Zong...
So in this competition, I think he can win!"
After hearing Long Xuan describe Fang Yiming so powerfully, when Su Ping'an looked at the latter, his eyes couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.
