The next day, Tuesday.
Zhou Yifei packed up his things and left the house.
Yesterday was the first day of the new semester, and after he finished playing chess with Time and the others, he simply did not return to the dojo, but went home to visit his grandfather.
“Yifei, come on in the final competition, grandpa is waiting for your good news!” Zhou Zhiheng encouraged with a smile.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’m going.”
Zhou Yifei smiled, said goodbye, and walked to the bus station alone.
When passing by the neighbor Jiang Xueming’s house, the other party had just left to go to school.
“Zhou Yifei!”
The little girl ran up quickly and said with a grin: “Come on in the final competition!” When you have time, remember to come back and check it out, you will always be a part of the Go club! ”
“It will.”
Zhou Yifei stopped and chuckled: “You should also study well and strive to get a good university.” ”
“Hmm.”
The two walked along the road, and when they reached the station, they said goodbye to each other.
Looking at Zhou Yifei getting on the bus, Jiang Xueming pursed his mouth, took a deep breath, and muttered softly:
“I wish you success and success.”
She turned and walked towards the campus, and after the two of them walked, she was now the only one left.
……
Yijianghu Dojo.
When Zhou Yifei walked into a group of classrooms, Bai Xiaoxiao was distributing new clothes.
“Coming back from school?” Bai Xiaoxiao said hello.
“Well, I went through the formalities yesterday.” Zhou Yifei nodded.
“Seeing you reminds me of myself three years ago, three years ago, I also took a break from school on this day.”
Zhou Yifei was a little surprised.
“I’m seventeen this year, can’t you see it?” Bai Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said, “Before the summer vacation, I went back to take the college entrance examination, but unfortunately my studies were abandoned for too long, and my grades were not satisfactory.” ”
She said it easily, but Zhou Yifei could still feel the confusion in the other party’s heart.
If you want to become a professional chess player, there is an age limit, and if you can’t set a stage until you are eighteen, you won’t have a chance again(Note 1).
And Bai Xiaoxiao, Zhou Yifei has played chess with her a few times, as a female chess player, she is already very powerful, and she can rank in the top eight in a group.
However, there are no male and female divisions in the Sectional Competition.
Immediately, he thought again, not to mention this year, it is next year’s scheduled competition, Bai Xiaoxiao also failed, and the final outcome is to go back to college.
“The cruel black and white world, she is just a microcosm.”
“This cruelty, every Chong Duan teenager is very clear…”
“Just holding the love of Go, I resolutely embarked on this road full of corpse bones!”
“So do I…”
“It’s just one more bit of luck.”
Thinking inwardly, he returned with a warm smile, “Come on.” ”
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled, as if remembering something, and handed over the two costumes in his hand.
“This is the autumn robe of the dojo, it was just issued today, let’s see if it fits.”
Two identical dojo uniforms, gray with Yijianghu characters embroidered on the chest, are a kind of Chinese kaftan .
It is modified from the Taoist robes of Taoist priests in the Ming Dynasty.
When Zhou Yifei took it, he found that many people in the dojo today had changed their previous summer clothes and looked personable.
Just thinking about it, the big teacher carried the wine jug and walked in from outside the door.
“Zhou Yifei, go and sit down first. Next, something to announce. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Yifei immediately walked to his seat.
Hong He sat on the right hand side, immediately leaned over his head, and laughed softly: “Elder Zhou, this dress is good, right?” I heard that it was specially customized in time for the stage race. ”
“How much?”
Compared with looking good or not, Zhou Yifei is more concerned about the price, after all, he is very poor, and he wants to make money after becoming a career.
“What do you think, it’s all included in the tuition.” Hong He rolled his eyes, “One set in spring and summer, one set in autumn and winter.” You joined temporarily, so the spring-summer set doesn’t have your part. ”
So that’s the case, in other words, I haven’t paid any tuition fees…
Zhou Yifei smiled, earned a set of clothes for nothing, and was happy.
At this time, the big teacher stood on the podium, first took a sip of hot wine unhurriedly, and only after everyone quieted down, did he slowly speak:
“The rules of this year’s section race have come down, so I will briefly inform you.”
Hearing the three words of the final competition, everyone was concentrated.
“This year’s qualifying round is divided into qualifiers and this race, and the qualifiers will be held next week with five or six days to go.”
“Not to mention this tournament, the qualifiers were for five consecutive days, one game of chess every day, randomly drawn to determine the opponent, three wins to advance, three defeats to eliminate.”
“This competition is sponsored by the National Chess Academy and the National Go Association, organized by the National Go Foundation, Fangyuan City Go Branch, and co-organized by Yiyun Go Club.”
A brief introduction to the stage race.
The eldest teacher’s gaze swept over the sixteen people under the seat, and continued: “We have eight places in Yijianghu, which means that there are only eight people who can participate in the qualifiers. ”
Hearing this, some people couldn’t help but bow their heads, and their hearts were painful.
One group is elite, but among the elite, only eight people can participate.
This means that half of the population will be eliminated.
Moreover, they already know who will be eliminated and who will have the opportunity to climb the peak.
“The eight-man quota is determined based on the ranking of the promotion tournament last month. They are…”
The big teacher looked down at the list and read word by word:
“Zhou Yifei, the first in the pick, won all 15 battles.”
“Yue Zhi, second in the pick, 13 wins and 2 losses.”
“Shen Yilang, third in the pick, 13 wins and 2 losses.”
“Wang Chong, fourth in the pick, 12 wins and 3 losses.”
“Tian Minze, fifth in the pick, 11 wins and 4 defeats.”
“Honghe, sixth in the pick, 10 wins and 5 defeats.”
“Zhang Fugui, seventh in the pick, 9 wins and 6 losses.”
“Bai Xiaoxiao, eighth in the pick, 8 wins and 7 losses!”
“The above eight people will represent Yijianghu to participate in this final competition.”
The eldest teacher ruthlessly reported the list, and then said: “Another… Yu Zhiming won 14, Chen Bingqian won 2 and lost 13, relegated to the second group, Yu Liang and Zhou Zihao in the second group, advanced to the first group! ”
Cruel.
Bloody reality.
Although the members of a group usually have a good relationship with each other.
But at this moment, a few rejoice and a few are sad.
Zhou Yifei is very calm in his heart, and if he wants to step into his profession, he must step on the corpse of others.
Not only these people around, but also the opponents who will meet in the qualifiers.
“Patience, hardship, pain, suffering… Only those who overcome various difficulties one by one can get a valuable admission ticket. ”
The eldest teacher spoke coldly, and his tone was far-reaching: “No one will stop, only the winner can continue to move forward!” This is the professional world of Go! ”
