Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 99 You Are the Only One Who Is Strong [16th Update!!!!!!!!!]

"Little friend, I know you are quite strong. You defeated that guy Gui Wangda in the National Amateur Competition, and then defeated the Korean amateur king in the Qinglong Cup.

To be honest, if you have the ability to play stably in the domestic league, there will be no problem, but now this is the world's second-tier league.

We are not just facing domestic opponents, but strong opponents from all over Asia and even Europe and the United States! It is normal for young people to be a little proud, but they must also face the facts. "

The other team members followed suit and set out the chessboards and chess boxes, while Zhang Laoxi and Yi Zheng sat on each side.

Before starting, Zhang Laoxi also began to educate Yi Zheng earnestly, saying that it is a good thing for young people to have ambitions, but they should not think too highly of themselves.

Otherwise, once you encounter a setback, it is easy to become devastated.

At this time, Jin Jae-hao, who had been hiding in his room in Silla for three days without going out, sneezed inexplicably.

"As a Go player, the most important thing is to maintain a calm mindset, neither being arrogant when you win nor discouraged when you lose. Only in this way can you continue on the professional path for a long time."

Looking at the senior who was tirelessly imparting his experience, Yi Zheng smiled and signaled the other party to take the first move.

Looking at the stubborn Yi Zheng, Zhang Laoxi shook his head helplessly: "Young people are so stubborn. I will guide you and let you know how deep the waters of the professional world are."

As a teammate, it is better to let Yi Zheng pay the tuition offline than in the competition.

Zhang Laoxi played black and Yi Zheng played white, and the two of them made their moves quickly.

The other four people in the team lay down and watched.

"Do you think this newcomer can win?"

"It's difficult, but if Lao Xi loses his mind, he might flip over."

"If he fails, he'll have to pay for dinner tonight, hahahaha."

As old teammates who have played together for several years, they are still very confident in Zhang Laoxi's strength.

Of course, it is not completely impossible to lose. In Go, people often play a big spoon, and once the opponent seizes the opportunity, they may lose.

Especially the more careless you are, the more likely this situation is to occur. For example, Qiang Jiu was completely careless when facing the European Chudan in the World Championship. As a result, he made a big loss in the middle game and his winning rate dropped from nearly 100% to single digits. Although in the end, the European player was defeated with a super amateur loss.

But if it weren't for the subsequent incident that almost broke the thigh of this first-dan player, maybe this Qiang Jiu would have really failed and would have been talked about for the rest of his life.

What's more, the gap in strength between Zhang Laoxi and Yi Zheng is obviously not that big. In their opinion, there is a possibility of failure if Zhang Laoxi is careless.

Zhang Laoxi rolled his eyes when he heard what his teammate said deliberately, knowing that the other party was reminding him not to take it lightly.

How could I be so careless? After all, if I lose this kind of game, not playing in the first game would be a small matter, but embarrassing myself would be a big matter!

Zhang Laoxi made his moves while thinking, and the situation soon reached the middle game.

Looking at the situation on the field, Gu Zhengyu, the captain of the Capital Bank team, stared at the board and made a rough assessment.

"White has gained a lot of space on the left and in the lower area, while West has also created a huge space on the right and in the center.

The situation is quite delicate. This newcomer, Xin Chudan, was able to hold his own against Lao Xi until the middle game without losing the upper hand. His strength is quite impressive."

Gu Zhengyu silently made a judgment in his heart that this child cannot be treated as an ordinary new beginner. At least he already has a certain level of professional strength.

If there is a chance, we should let him play and train. Maybe he can form an independent force soon.

Looking at the situation on the field, Mr. Ke felt that Yi Zheng was slightly at a disadvantage, so he chose a steady start and did not use a flying knife to kill the opponent at first sight.

Do you want to see how strong you are now? Hajiyi. However, there is still a gap between him and these professional stalwarts, but there is still hope of winning.

Move 123, Black, block!

After assessing the situation, Zhang Laoxi felt that his situation was very similar to Yi Zheng's, so he still had to further maintain his points and expand his advantage.

Yi Zheng looked at Zhang Laoxi, who was ready to protect the entire center and not let him get a single bit of it, and knew that he had to use some tricks.

Move 134, White, long.

"Strange, Yi Zheng's previous moves were all aimed at playing within Black's empty space, so why did he suddenly go for the final move?"

Shi Yu was a little puzzled when he saw Yi Zheng suddenly changing track. This step was completely unrelated to the previous method.

The reason why Yi Zheng made this move was to place a piece in the black chess piece's empty space. With this move, Yi Zheng was testing whether Zhang Laoxi on the opposite side had made a clear judgment.

This is hand talk, understanding the opponent's current state through chess.

Zhang Laoxi looked at the chessboard and fell into deep thought. If I fill it, will it be my turn? But if I fill it, wouldn't it be like the kid made two consecutive moves on it?
This is a bit of a coward. I feel like even if I’m good, my strengths are limited, and I can’t give up any of my advantages.

Thinking of this, Zhang Laoxi decisively chose to climb out in the most ferocious way.

Looking at Zhang Laoxi crawling out, Yi Zheng instantly understood that the other party had not judged the advantage clearly! So when he went in, the other party would definitely kill him!

After confirming this judgment, Yi Zheng made a quick move, and Zhang Laoxi, as Yi Zheng had expected, demanded to kill Yi Zheng by force.

Yi Zheng took advantage of the fact that his opponent was determined to kill him, and took advantage of the opponent's tight energy in the upper right corner to create a fight.

"It's over."

Seeing the fight for the ko in the upper right corner, both Zhang Laoxi who was playing in the game and several other regular team members secretly thought that something was wrong.

If you are in a siege situation in your home space, Yi Zheng only needs to make a move or make two consecutive moves outside to completely reverse the situation.

In the end, Yi Zheng forced Zhang Laoxi to switch during the fight for the ko. After collecting all the official pieces, Zhang Laoxi found that he had lost half a point.

"What the hell."

Zhang Laoxi touched his bald head. He actually lost, and he didn’t lose by hitting the spoon?
Yi Zheng tapped a few spots in the center of the chessboard with his hand. "I didn't judge clearly that you had an advantage in the middle game earlier. I knew then that you were unwilling to make a move in the middle game, or at least you were not satisfied with your current advantage.

As long as I'm working on something, you'll definitely follow suit. That's what makes me sure I can succeed."

The meaning is very simple. Zhang Laoxi's hard power is indeed very strong, at least stronger than Yi Zheng's current strength, but his judgment is not as accurate as Yi Zheng's.

"I've seen through it for you? Are you still a new beginner?"

Zhang Laoxi looked at the points pointed out by Yi Zheng and didn't know what to say. Are all the new beginners so strong now?
That's it. How can we old people survive? We won't lose our jobs in just two years.

Seeing Yi Zheng defeat Zhang Laoxi, Shi Yu immediately became excited: "I want to challenge too!"

There is no reason why Yi Zheng can do it but I can’t!

When Zhang Laoxi saw the child coming to challenge him again, he played the second game despite being tired, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after defeating the opponent.

Zhang Laoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching the game. Although Shi Yu was strong, he was within his cognitive range.

Thinking of this, Zhang Laoxi couldn't help but turn around and say to Yi Zheng who was watching the game: "I'm scared to death. I thought all the new beginners were at this level. It seems that you are the only one who is strong."
