One hundred and sixty-eight the situation is not good
Go courtyard, public chess hall!
This is an extremely spacious lobby with many chess tables set up on site. It is a place for exchanges between some young chess players in the Go Academy.
However, the atmosphere in the public chess hall today was a bit solemn.
Many people gathered around the chess table in the middle, watching a unique game.
One of the players in the game was no stranger to the young chess players in the Go Academy. He was Senior Brother Hang, a professional eight-stage chess player they had always respected.
Duan Hang looks to be in his forties and has extremely sharp eyes.
This chess player has always been known for his fierceness, but for many 9th-dan national players with higher chess skills, this is not calm enough.
The person playing chess with Duan Hang seems to be younger.
Although he looks humble in his suit and leather shoes, there is a hint of unruliness in his eyes.
Many young chess players in the Go Academy looked at this person with a hint of anger, because they knew that this person was not from the Dragon Kingdom, but from the Bang Kingdom next door.
The reason is that the Chinese people are so shameless.
Many of the cultures of the Dragon Kingdom that have been passed down for a long time have been shamelessly appropriated by the people of the Bang Kingdom as their own, saying that they are the creators and birthplace of these cultures.
Take the game of Go as an example. In the past ten years, Go in Bangkok has developed rapidly, and there is a saying in their country that they invented Go.
The people of the Dragon Kingdom wanted to argue, but based on their strength in Go, they were unable to crush them. At most, they were on an equal footing with the Bang Kingdom.
In terms of land area alone, Bang Country is not as big as any other province in our country, but their arrogant attitude is unprecedented.
Everyone knows that the guy playing chess with Duan Hang is named Park Zhixin, and he is a great Chinese.
Although he does not belong to the Bangguo Weiqi Academy, precisely because he has no official status, he acts arrogantly and without any scruples.
This time, all the nine-dan chess players in the Go Academy, under the leadership of the dean, went to participate in the Kaiyuan Cup International Go Invitational Tournament held in the island country. There was only eight-dan chess player Duan Hang left in the academy.
Park Ji-shin just found such a special moment to come and challenge him. To put it bluntly, he was kicking the gym.
Maybe he thinks that no one in the Go academy is his opponent.
"Do you think Senior Brother Duan Hang can win?"
Among the young chess players who were watching, a small voice suddenly asked, causing many people to glare at him.
Can this kind of question be asked now?
However, some other mature and serious chess players had serious expressions on their faces.
Because even if their chess skills are lower, they can still see that Senior Brother Duan Hang is not sure of victory.
Neither Park Zhixin nor Duan Hang are new 8-dan players. They have been in this field for some time, and their goal is to reach the highest professional 9-dan level.
It's a pity that there is a huge chasm between 8th and 9th dan, and Go requires a lot of understanding. Some people may not be able to cross that gap in their lifetime.
For example, Duan Hang has stayed in the eighth section for several years, but he still falls short.
It seems that he is only a little bit close to breaking that barrier, but if he can't find that opportunity, he will only be able to stay at the eighth level of his career for the rest of his life.
Chess players don't actually know much about Park Zhixin. They only know that he has amazing chess skills. He often challenges many chess halls in Dragon Kingdom and Island Kingdom, and rarely loses.
The Go Academy is undoubtedly the holy place in the Dragon Kingdom Go community. Even though Park Zhishin, an eighth-dan player, is very skilled in chess, he does not dare to come and challenge him.
It was obvious that Pu Zhixin came here well prepared today. Not only did he find out that all the nine-dan chess players in the chess academy were not there, he seemed to have carefully studied Duan Hang's chess moves.
Many young chess players blindly encouraged Duan Hang in their hearts, but those who were more mature and prudent, such as several seventh-dan chess players, frowned very tightly, feeling that the situation was not good.
Duan Hang has always been known for his bravery in playing chess. His chess style is like fire and he has a strong offensive nature. He can often kill his opponent in the middle game and make him surrender.
However, when this kind of chess style meets a nine-dan chess player with a long history of chess skills, the drawbacks are extremely obvious.
This may also be an important reason why he cannot break through to ninth level.
Park Zhixin is obviously extremely well prepared, and it is more likely that he is here just to play against Duan Hang today.
Before the middle game, Park Zhixin was in the defensive stage and did not compete with Duan Hang to change pieces. At the beginning, the situation was precarious.
At that time, many young chess players were happy and excited, thinking that the arrogant Park Zhixin would soon be killed by Brother Duan Hang. Let's see if you still dare to be arrogant?
These young chess players have poor eyesight, but those professional chess players who have reached the seventh level can see the essence of the facts.
Park Zhixin's blind defense at the beginning was actually a secret plan, which could be regarded as a accumulation of hard work. When the game reached the middle game, he suddenly started to exert force.
At this moment, Duan Hang finally paid the price for his recklessness.
After several consecutive moves by Park Zhixin, he was retreating steadily, and his defeat was already somewhat obvious.
"Damn it, I'm afraid I'm going to make Park Zhixin continue to be arrogant today!"
One of the seven-dan chess players secretly cursed, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, with the current strength of the chess academy, I am afraid that only a ninth-dan chess player can suppress Park Zhixin's arrogance.
But there is one in the Weiqi Academy, and the highest is Duan Hang's eighth level.
If Duan Hang is defeated, the entire Go Academy may be embarrassed.
The huge Go Academy was actually selected by Bangguo alone. If this were told, it would probably become a big joke in the Go world.
The media outlets in the country are the best at hyping things up.
Although Pu Zhixing put all his efforts into choosing such a time to challenge.
But when the time comes, others will only know that someone picked you up at the Longguo Go Academy. Who cares whether you have a master present?
"Everyone, give way, the vice-dean is here!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the outside. Everyone looked back and recognized that it was the young chess player Xiao Shu, with several figures following behind him.
"Vice Dean, Mr. Ye!"
Naturally, all the chess players from the chess academy knew Ge Yunhe and Ye Chengtian.
But when they turned their attention to Shen Mu and Ye Lan, they felt they were quite unfamiliar.
Therefore, they all regard this man and woman as Ye Chengtian's descendants. They may not even know Go, but they just come to watch the fun.
Many thoughtful chess players were not happy about the arrival of Vice President Ge Yunhe.
After all, they knew clearly that although this person had a high status, his chess skills were only at the sixth level of his career.
Under such circumstances, the arrival of these people cannot change anything at all, that is, a few more people will be laughed at by that stickman Park Ji-shin.
"How's the situation?"
Ge Yunge asked as he led a few people inside.
His face looked a little ugly, and he obviously knew something about Duan Hang and Park Zhixin's chess moves.
"Senior Brother Duan Hang, I'm afraid something is not going well!"
A seven-dan chess player came up. After he finished speaking, Ge Yunhe and others could already see the two people playing chess on the field, and their eyes immediately turned to the chessboard.
"This Duan Hang, I'm afraid he suffered another reckless mistake!"
Although Ge Yunhe is only a sixth-dan professional player, he has a deep understanding of the chess style of every chess player in the chess academy.
Seeing the situation on the chessboard at this moment, I couldn't help but hate the iron.
It's just that Ge Yunhe himself is only a sixth-dan professional, but Duan Hang is an eighth-dan professional. Apart from scolding him based on his personality, he can do nothing about his chess skills.
"Hello, Vice President Ge!"
Duan Hang, who was already at a disadvantage, thought hard and remained unmoved by external events, but Pu Zhixin stood up from his chair at the first sight of Ge Yunhe's appearance.
This eighth-dan professional chess player from Bangkok had a respectful tone and looked extremely polite, but the proud look in his eyes did not hide it from anyone.
Moreover, Park Zhixin spoke Chinese extremely fluently, with a slight Northeastern accent, which did not sound unconventional, but some young chess players glared at him.
These Chinese people are the most hypocritical. They came to play games while others were in danger, and they secretly studied Brother Duan Hang's chess moves, but they still had to act polite. It's really disgusting.
The reason why Park Ji-shin dared to be distracted at this time was because he had a sure chance of victory.
He already had a good idea of the next few moves. No matter where Duan Hang played, he had a way to deal with it.
Snap!
After Park Zhixin sat down again, Duan Hang finally lost his son.
Most people didn't see anything special about this, but there was a sigh from somewhere.
"Hopeless!"
Shen Mu shook his head slightly. When his words came out, many people's eyes turned to him.
When they saw that this was a young man in his early twenties, they all looked surprised.
What does a young boy like you know about Go? How can you understand this battle between professional eight-dan players?
Many of the chess players watching at the scene are around 20 years old, but although they are young, they have been studying the game of Go for more than ten years.
Shen Mu is unknown in the Go world, and there were only two games without many outsiders present, so almost no one knows about his chess prowess.
At least among the young chess players in the Weiqi Academy, no one has seen Shen Mu in the Weiqi Academy, and they have not heard of such a number one figure in other chess halls.
In this tense atmosphere, you dare to speak out and directly sentence Brother Duan Hang to death. Do you really think that you are a professional ninth-dan national player?
Can you understand the professional eight-dan chess strategy?
There were so many professional chess players present, and even a few seven-dan chess players didn't speak. Why did you interrupt?
