After the list of the Go duel appeared that afternoon, the entire Apocalypse City was in a state of excitement.
"Oh my god, what kind of fate is this? Whether it's Go or chess between Daxuan Kingdom and Dafeng Kingdom, it turns out that Su Ping'an and Ji Fengbai are dueling in the end. What a coincidence!"
"These two seem to be destined rivals. This battle is going to be exciting!"
"It's so exciting. Which one is more powerful, the 'founder of chess', or the 'young chess master' who deserves his reputation? It all depends on tomorrow!"
The major restaurants and teahouses were buzzing with people that night, and the discussion about chess reached a climax, once surpassing the influence of calligraphy.
Among them, many shops took the opportunity to increase their bets when the market opened, betting on who would have the last laugh in the two duels tomorrow, Daxuan or Dafeng. It was said that someone spent thousands of dollars on the 'Little Chess Sage'.
Some people also devoted their whole family's efforts to attack Daxuan, and the scene was extremely heated.
In this atmosphere, the Daxuan Hall was not peaceful that night. Headed by Ziyi Hou Luo Lie and Dingshan Hou Ji Cangzhou, together with three elders of the Academy of Literature, and all the literary cultivators were present and gathered in the meeting hall to express their opinions on Su.
Ping An carried out pre-war encouragement and pre-war mobilization.
The old Marquis took a more open approach to this competition and said: "You don't need to be under much pressure, you just need to try your best. The fact that you can get to this point is beyond my expectation."
These words were spoken very sincerely and in the manner of an elder, which made Su Ping'an feel a sense of being cared for by his elders. However, these words sounded a little familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized it.
Isn’t this what I said to Xiao Fuzi and Wang Shaotong before?!
Ji Cangzhou didn't say much, but nodded in agreement as Luo Lie finished speaking, which was considered to express his attitude.
When it was Elder Chun's turn, they spoke more rigorously, "Now we have reached the most critical moment of the finals. Su Wenshi, please restrain your past attitude and take it seriously..."
Su Ping'an was about to interrupt when he heard this, "Why didn't I take it seriously before..."
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted. Elder Chun said: "Don't talk, just listen to us. Although your performance was beyond my expectation, I didn't expect you to go so far in Go, but
Now that you have reached this point, you have to fight no matter what. If you can defeat the little chess master from the Gale Country in one fell swoop, this will not only be your personal glory, but also the glory of our Daxuan Country. At the same time, it will also greatly enhance our country.
It’s a good opportunity to declare the country’s national destiny, so please do your best to play these two games tomorrow.”
Elder Zhuo and Elder Hua echoed from the side, "Yes, we must try our best to win the leader!"
"..."
Su Ping'an felt a black line on his forehead after hearing this.
Are you cheering me on, or are you deliberately trying to put pressure on me? Are you taking advantage of the Gale Country?
Of course this is a joke, but it can also be seen how eager everyone in Daxuan is for this chess victory.
It’s no wonder that these elders were eager. In the chess competition, previous Four Kingdoms competitions had always had little hope, so they were not looking forward to it at first, but suddenly they saw Su Pingan standing on the threshold of the leader.
It will inevitably make them think more.
After all, you still have to have dreams, what if something happens?!
Apart from the words of the elders, the words of Longcheng, Wen Liang and others were much more straightforward and simple.
"Wenshi Su, I believe you can do it!"
"Lao Su, come on, kill that pretty boy!"
"Troublemaker Su, as long as you use one-tenth of your usual ability to make trouble, I believe you will be fine."
"..."
Yes, hearing it is the same as not hearing it.
As for the situation in Gale Country, the situation was similar. Everyone gathered around Ji Fengbai to ask for advice, and also told Ji Fengbai not to underestimate Su Ping'an.
Ji Fengbai listened to all the words, but he didn't pay much attention to them, because in his knowledge, no one could beat him.
"I am invincible on the road to chess!"
…
There was nothing to say all night, and in a blink of an eye it was morning.
Early that morning, the chess venue was packed with people, and there was almost no place to put a foot down.
These people are here to watch the most eye-catching and exciting battle since this chess competition. Who is the leader, Daxuan or Dafeng, will be announced today.
Soon after, the principals of both sides began to enter the venue.
As if to match today's big scene, Su Ping'an wore a crescent-white brocade suit, and his whole person looked much more elegant and easy-going. He looked elegant, elegant, and had an outstanding image.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, he attracted cheers from many chess fans present.
"Look, everyone Su has appeared!"
"Hey, I usually don't notice this guy, but I didn't expect him to be quite handsome!"
"Sure enough, he is talented and capable, and he is so handsome. It's so fucking annoying. Is this even justified?"
On the other side, Ji Fengbai's appearance also attracted a burst of cheers. The latter was dressed in a crimson robe, looking both noble and heroic. Coupled with his already long and charming face, he immediately aroused attention as soon as he appeared.
There were cheers from countless women in the boudoir, occasionally mixed with a few confessions from men, which caused a burst of laughter in the middle.
Of course, these are just interludes.
With the arrival of both sides of the duel, Da Zhan officials and some royal family members later came to the scene in person to watch this last and most exciting duel.
The inside of the clubhouse has also been rearranged a long time ago.
In the huge venue, there was only a high platform with a screen in the middle. That was where Su Ping'an and Ji Fengbai were going to show off, and it could be said that it attracted everyone's attention.
The rest of the people could only stand around and watch the battle. Even the royal family, Da Zhan officials and people from other missions could only watch the large chessboard being played on the high platform nearby.
This duel, both the scene and the atmosphere, can be said to have been raised to the extreme. If we can finally win the championship in such a scene, it goes without saying that it will be famous in the four countries and spread all over the world.
"We invite Daxuan chess player Su Pingan and Dafeng Country chess player Ji Fengbai to come to the chess world..."
On the high platform, as a referee sang loudly, everyone knew that this duel was finally about to begin.
Su Ping'an and Ji Fengbai heard the sound and walked up to the chess table in the center of the club together. After going up, they sat down on opposite sides of a table.
Then the referee brought an urn, which contained ten wax balls of the same size, and then read out: "In view of the fact that both the Go competition and the chess competition are two players, repeated battles will definitely consume the energy of both people.
, so this conference proposed that the Go and Xiangqi competitions be integrated into one game, with three wins out of five games.
In this man, among the ten wax pills, there are five Go and five Xiangqi. Whatever you draw, you will fight against each other. In the end, this match will determine the leader of Go and Xiangqi. I wonder if you two have any objections?!
"
Upon hearing these rules, Su Ping'an and Ji Fengbai's expressions changed slightly, and the audience immediately exploded.
"Well, the competition rules have been adjusted?"
"Then isn't this the rule of the challenge?"
"This rule is interesting. The winner is decided in one round. This saves time."
"But this is too dangerous. If in the five rounds, all the players are drawn are chess or all the players are drawn, then no matter which one it is, wouldn't it be unfair to the other party? After all, Daxuan's
I am the 'Founder of Xiangqi' and should be better at chess, while the 'Little Chess Saint' here must be better at Go..."
"That's not necessarily the case. It's the risk that makes it more exciting and can better reflect the true strength of the chess players, isn't it?!"
There was a quarrel below. Some people agreed with this rule, while others did not.
Of course, Su Ping'an and Ji Fengbai immediately understood the meaning of this, but whether it was out of a desire to make a quick decision or out of self-confidence, the two of them did not make a decision and said in unison: "I
agree!"
"Okay, let's start the first draw!"
After the referee finished speaking, he came between the two people with an urn, and then the two people guessed who would draw first.
In the end, Ji Fengbai won the initiative. He smiled faintly and said, "I accept it."
Su Ping'an shrugged indifferently, indicating that it was casual.
Ji Fengbai then reached out and took out a wax pill from the bowl, crushed it in front of everyone, and then opened it to see... Go!
