Killing monsters with a 100% explosion rate, are you luckier than me?

Ye Chuyun carefully observed the chessboard and discovered that in order to protect the general, Slack had tucked the remaining ground troops into the back half of the field, and the last air pawn had also moved to a relatively remote position to avoid the threat of Ye Chuyun's archer.

A plan formed in Ye Chuyun's mind.

He first ordered the last remaining cavalryman to launch a direct charge, drawing the attention of the remaining enemy ground forces and successfully trading one cavalryman for one infantryman.

If two people of the same level attack each other, both will die.

Therefore, Ye Chuyun's cavalry first dealt with the infantry before taking down the enemy cavalry together.

Just as Slack thought Ye Chuyun had no more troops to mobilize and was about to use his own forces to encircle and annihilate her, Ye Chuyun made her move.

The general he hadn't used suddenly left the safe corner and moved forward two spaces.

This move was extremely risky, exposing the general to the edge of the enemy's air unit's attack range.

Slack's snake eyes lit up instantly. Almost without hesitation, it immediately mobilized the air unit that had been waiting for an opportunity and rushed straight at Ye Chuyun's general.

In its view, this was a golden opportunity to win.

An empty pawn can control the general; once the attack hits, the game is over.

However, the moment the air force entered the attack position, Ye Chuyun's lips curled into a smile of triumph.

His two marksmen, whom he had arranged long ago, had been waiting for this opportunity.

Almost at the same time that the enemy's air force peeked out, the two archers launched their attack simultaneously.

"Whizzing!"

Two invisible arrows struck the target in mid-air with pinpoint accuracy.

Slyke's last air unit vanished in mid-air as a point of light.

[Defeat the air unit and gain 8000 attribute points!]

As the notification sounded, Ye Chuyun not only resolved the general's crisis but also instantly gained a reward of 8000 attribute points.

Meanwhile, in Slyke's half of the field, their defenses had been briefly weakened by Ye Chuyun's cavalry and the loss of their last air troops.

Its general, though still guarded by two infantrymen in front, had his flank exposed.

Without hesitation, Ye Chuyun immediately used some of the attribute points she had just acquired to purchase a new cavalryman and deployed him directly in an empty position in the center of the battlefield.

The emergence of this new force became the final straw that broke the camel's back.

Ye Chuyun's cavalry, like sharp knives, plunged straight into the enemy's heartland from the flank, killing an infantryman blocking their path, their advance aimed directly at Slack's general.

Slack hurriedly dispatched another infantryman to defend, but it was too late.

Ye Chuyun's cavalry, with an indomitable spirit, rammed into Slack's general.

According to the rules, cavalry is countered by the general, which would be considered a suicidal attack.

but!

Just before the cavalry launched its attack, Ye Chuyun used the attribute points she had just acquired to temporarily enhance the cavalryman.

This was a rule he discovered halfway through, and it was also part of Slack's scheme.

The rules allow players to temporarily increase the priority of a single piece for one turn by consuming attribute points during their own turn, costing 10000 points.

Although the restraining relationship cannot be changed, this force makes the attack unstoppable, capable of achieving a one-for-one exchange.

Before Slyke's incredulous eyes, his general's chess piece shattered under the charge of Ye Chuyun's enhanced cavalry.

[Defeat the general and gain 20000 attribute points!]

Won!

Ye Chuyun let out a long sigh of relief, but a cold sweat broke out on her back.

Every move in this game was a perilous one, especially the final decision to lure the opponent's empty pawns out and the desperate gamble of strengthening the cavalry to kill the general, which was extremely risky.

With the victory in the game, the attribute points he spent on purchasing chess pieces offset the rewards he received, resulting in a slight loss.

But most importantly, he passed the test.

Slack remained silent for a moment, and one could see the complex emotions swirling within the snake's eyes.

Finally, it said in a low voice, "Hiss... A brilliant game, bold yet meticulous, skilled in planning and luring. You win."

After saying this, it, along with the stone chessboard, slowly sank into the corridor floor and disappeared.

The instant Slack disappeared, Ye Chuyun received a series of notifications.

Congratulations on winning the "Chinese Chess Duel"! Results are in progress...

【累计获得属性点奖励：步兵x3（3000）、骑兵x4（12000）、射手x2（10000）、空兵x1（8000）、将军x1（20000），总计：53000点。】

[Deducting the cost of purchasing chess pieces: 54000 points.]

Net loss: 1000 points.

[Hidden Reward Triggered: Due to your successful use of the "Temporary Enhancement" rule to achieve a crucial kill in the match, demonstrating exceptional tactical insight, you will receive an additional 10000 attribute points!]

A surge of energy, far more powerful and vast than ever before, flowed into Ye Chuyun's body.

The numbers on the panel fluctuated wildly, eventually settling at around 300,000.

Not only did they recoup all the cost of buying the pieces, they also made a net profit of 100,000 points.

His attribute points increased instead of decreasing, returning to the level he had when he entered the Evolution Corridor, and even slightly exceeding it.

Ye Chuyun felt an indescribable surge of excitement.

This evolutionary corridor, though arduous, offers truly astonishing rewards.

Every victory brings rich rewards.

Even without S-rank talent, this Infinite Corridor is a treasure trove. As long as you can pass the test, you can get a lot of attribute points as a reward.

Those people from the previous life avoided it like the plague, unaware that they had missed a tremendous opportunity.

Just as he was about to continue forward, Slack, who had already half sunk into the ground, suddenly raised his snake head, looked deeply at Ye Chuyun, and said something.

"Challenger, you are indeed extraordinary."

"Hiss... Since you gave me a wonderful match that I haven't experienced in a long time, I'll give you a hint."

"From here to the end of the corridor, you still need to go through seven trials."

"Each level is more bizarre and unpredictable than the last. Be careful, hiss..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Slack vanished completely.

"Seven more?!" Ye Chuyun froze instantly, her scalp tingling.

The cunning and deception of Jack the Deceitful and the treacherous schemes of Slack the Chess Player are still vivid in our minds.

And there are actually seven more such tests to come?

This evolution corridor is simply a bottomless pit of torment.

After a brief moment of shock, Ye Chuyun's gaze hardened again.

"Knowing the exact number actually puts my mind at ease," he muttered to himself.

The unknown is the most terrifying thing. Once you have a clear goal, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, you will have something to strive for and a direction to follow.
