One hundred and seventy-three, what kind of evildoer did you find!
"This person...has been pretending!"
At this moment, Park Zhixin took a deep look at his opponent. It was absolutely impossible for him to regard this person as a Go novice now.
Because even if the opponent gave him three pieces, and even gave him the first move, after ten or twenty moves, he felt that the momentum of the opponent's chess move had a tendency to attack him.
This feeling is a subtle feeling that Park Ji-shin only had when he played chess with those real 9-dan great players at Bangkok Go Academy.
It seemed that even if he had the upper hand and occupied three or even four-pointed star positions, he was still not sure of winning the game.
"Shen Mu...Shen Mu, where did this guy come from? I've never heard of such a figure in the Go world of Dragon Kingdom before?"
Park Zhixin's mood was a little confused at this moment.
He couldn't imagine, nor could he accept, what would happen to him if he really lost in this situation?
Thinking of the bet he had just made with the other party, fine beads of sweat appeared on Park Zhixin's forehead. In this early winter season, he actually felt a little hot.
In fact, in the eyes of the onlookers at this moment, Park Zhixin still has the absolute upper hand. If he plays steadily and steadily, he has a great chance of winning.
However, at this time, the bystander clearly had another explanation.
They don't have the pressure of being Shen Mu's opponents, and they can't even imagine Park Zhixin's state of mind at this moment.
Like Duan Hang and others, they all just saw that Shen Mu was good at chess, but Park Zhixin was a professional eighth-dan master. How could he lose if he played three pieces first?
You can't say that Shen Mu is a great 9th-dan chess player. What's more, even if you are a 9th-dan master, no one dares to say that you can definitely win after giving up three pieces to an 8th-dan player.
At least Duan Hang had gone through the nine-dan masters at the Longguo Go Academy in his mind, and after comparing it with his own chess ability, he always felt that such a thing was too far-fetched.
Although there were some objective reasons for Duan Hang's defeat at the hands of Park Zhixin, even if the opponent had not deliberately studied his chess moves, the two would have been a draw at best.
In this case, everyone in the field, including Duan Hang, actually didn't have high hopes.
Fortunately, Shen Mu is not a professional chess player in the Weiqi Academy. This person has repeatedly emphasized his identity as a director just now, maybe his purpose is not to look so ugly after losing.
For a young man who is a director by profession to be able to play so many moves with an eighth-level professional Go master while letting the opponent have three pieces, this is already an extremely remarkable achievement.
As for the bet just mentioned, everyone also thought it was a bit of a joke.
With Park Ji-shin’s identity, it’s impossible to really make a young man kneel down and kowtow, right?
It's just that what the onlookers didn't realize was that the two people playing chess at this moment were in completely different states.
Park Ji-shin, the eight-dan chess player from the country, had cold sweat all over his forehead. On the other hand, Shen Mu, who claimed to be a director, was extremely calm and made his moves casually.
"The palace-level chess skills produced by this system are truly extraordinary!"
By this time, after playing so many games with real eight-dan professional chess players, Shen Mu became more and more confident, and finally saw the power of the system.
This allowed the opponent's three sons to be so relaxed. Shen Mu felt that he was a world-class master in the Go world and could really win a Go championship for Long Country.
It's a pity that although Shen Mu's current level of Go is extremely high, it is not his main occupation after all, nor is it the occupation he is interested in.
I just had something to do today, so I had no choice but to play chess with Pu Bangzi.
If it were another occasion, Shen Mu might not be willing to show off his extraordinary Go prowess.
For a director who is so powerful in Go, it would be surprising to tell people. Shen Mu's purpose in life is to keep a low profile.
But the matter has come to this, no matter what, Shen Mu still needs to finish this game of chess before talking about it.
As time went by, in addition to the person involved, Park Zhixin, many seventh- and eighth-level chess players, as well as sixth-level masters like Ge Yunhe, had gradually seen some clues.
"Vice Dean, if I read correctly, are the two sides gradually becoming evenly matched?"
Xiao Shu, a second-level professional chess player, sounded a little unsure and couldn't help but speak out.
But at this time, Ge Yunhe was immersed in the chess game and naturally did not answer him.
"Wonderful! This step is wonderful!"
But at this moment, Ba Duanqi's Ziyihang suddenly clapped his hands and made a sound, pulling many people's attention back, and everyone's expressions became extremely strange.
Everyone knows who made the wonderful move that Duan Hang mentioned, because even if they are not as good at chess as the two players, they can still see some simple situations.
"With this wonderful move, the disadvantages of the third player and the first mover can be considered recovered!"
One of the seven-dan chess players had a face full of excitement, and his eyes looked at Shen Mu with a touch of admiration.
These few words can be regarded as explaining the reason for Duan Hang's excitement just now.
Because unknowingly, Park Zhixin's great advantage at the beginning no longer existed, and was calmly eliminated by Shen Mu step by step.
In the battle between top Go players, sometimes even a half-eye can determine the winner, let alone the one who takes the lead.
A martial arts novel once mentioned a scene in which two Go masters, in order to fight for the first move, one side would not hesitate to cut off a toe. This shows how important this first move is?
However, the young director named Shen Mu not only let an eighth-dan professional master take the lead, but also let the opponent's third son take the lead. How arrogant is this?
At the beginning, everyone felt that Shen Mu just wanted to muddy the waters.
As an outsider, the professional chess players in the Go Academy don't have to look so ugly.
They all thought Shen Mu was Ge Yunhe, or Mr. Ye's nephew.
In a sense, as long as you are not from the country, you are one of our own.
At least no one thought that Shen Mu would win, and he might be defeated by Park Zhixin in a very short period of time, and would eventually have to fulfill his bet.
But they never expected that in the middle of the game, Shen Mu not only was not killed, but also miraculously made up for such a huge disadvantage.
Previously, Shen Mu's moves were so random that most people couldn't see any deep meaning. This may be due to the difference in chess skills.
But when Duan Hang, an eighth-dan professional chess player, and those seven-dan chess players put together the pieces Shen Mu had played before, they found them to be extremely ingenious.
At first I thought that Shen Mu's every step was random, but now I realized that it was not random, but a clever layout. Every white stone was not aimless and played its due role.
"Vice President Ge, what kind of evildoer did you find?"
Duan Hang had a look of emotion on his face. He turned his attention to Ge Yunhe and asked this question, which can be regarded as the voice of all the chess players in the chess academy.
They had rarely heard of Shen Mu's name before, and even if they had, it was in the entertainment industry, not the Go world.
These are two completely incompatible fields, but at this moment, Shen Mu's chess skills are even better than those of the nine-dan chess players in the Go Academy.
This made everyone feel like they were in a dream while being pleasantly surprised.
Why has no one in the Go world heard of such a powerful chess player before?
This Shen Mu can already be regarded as one of the top chess players in the Dragon Kingdom and even in the world.
And he is still so young. In time, he will definitely be the light of Go in the Dragon Kingdom.
Although there are still several ninth-level Go masters in the Dragon Kingdom in recent years, the Bang Kingdom and the Island Kingdom have risen strongly, and the dominance they once had in the Go world has long since ceased to exist.
Therefore, the Dragon Kingdom urgently needs a top player who can break the pattern and win several more world championships. Only then can the dignity of Go that once belonged to the Dragon Kingdom be regained.
It's a pity that no matter whether it is the previous world competitions or the Kaiyuan Cup World Go Invitational Tournament held in the island country, the nine-dan chess players of Long Kingdom are not sure of winning.
As for the Shen Mu in front of them, even if they had never heard of each other's Go prowess before, at least Shen Mu's Go prowess displayed at this moment was already at the top level in the world.
"Brother Ye, I want to ask you to do me a favor!"
Ge Yunhe had come to his senses at this time, with a strange light flashing in his old eyes. He ignored Duan Hang's questions and turned his gaze directly to Ye Chengtian.
"Do you still want him to join the Go Academy?"
Ye Chengtian is an old man and naturally knows what the other person is talking about, so he smiled and said: "Hey, I can't be his master on this!"
At this moment, Ye Chengtian had a trace of pride on his old face. It was really hard to see how comfortable Shen Mu was.
The dissatisfaction I felt when we first met has long since dissipated.
I originally thought that Shen Mu was just a frivolous boy who liked to impress people, but I didn't expect that this boy's Go skills were so strong.
To be honest, even if Shen Mu took over the end game and defeated Ge Yunhe, a sixth-level professional, Ye Chengtian was just shocked.
As for this kid wanting to be with his granddaughter, he still needs to investigate further.
But now, Shen Mu challenged Park Zhixin vigorously. In a sense, this boy was bringing glory to the country, and this undoubtedly went to Ye Chengtian's heart.
Veteran cadres like Ye Chengtian who have retired from high positions in the Dragon Kingdom value the reputation of the Dragon Kingdom more than anyone else. This can be regarded as a special occupational disease.
A chess player from the Bangzi Kingdom came to the Long Kingdom Go Academy to show off his power, but no one could defeat him. This made Ye Chengtian feel extremely aggrieved just now.
Now Shen Mu is gradually recovering the situation. From an absolute disadvantage to a balance of power at this moment, there is a great possibility of winning this game. How can Ye Chengtian not be excited?
