[comprehensive] untouchable opponent

Grandpa's reaction was completely beyond Liyuan Qianxia's expectations, but it turned out that everyone was happy and not bad.She struggled a bit when he asked Kuwamoto Inbo to be her teacher, but she let him go.

When Liyuan Chinatsu read last year's "Go Weekly", it reported that when Kuwamoto Inbo won the title defense again, there was a general introduction and evaluation of his Go career.Because she had seen this old man at home before, she watched that part very carefully.

To be honest, after getting to know Kuwamoto Inbo, Liyuan Qianxia admired him from the bottom of her heart.An old man who is more than seventy years old, in order to witness the arrival of the new wave in the chess world, he has persisted in the chess world for so many years.This enthusiasm for Go alone is worthy of everyone's admiration.

If there is a chance, she also wants to see the demeanor of this famous chess player with her own eyes.

Liyuan Qianxia had to go to class the next day, so she returned to Tezuka's house that afternoon.As for the matter of inviting Kuwahara Inbo to be a teacher, Grandpa vowed to leave it to him, so she didn't pay much attention.

In the next few days, Liyuan Qianxia lived a normal life, except for class, she played chess every day.The only difference is that almost every day when she goes out, Shindo Hikaru "coincidentally" appears outside Tezuka's house, chatting casually about how good Morishita's research will be.

Whether it is the Chinese chess world or the Japanese chess world, they all pay great attention to the succession of masters.Once she joined a research club of a certain high-level chess player, in the eyes of outsiders, she was labeled as a student of that chess player.

Because grandpa wants her to worship Kuwamoto Inbo, although she has not received a definite answer, Liyuan Chinatsu has no way to respond to Shinto and Ogata's invitation for the time being.

In this regard, Jin Tengguang expressed his disappointment, but still did not give up.

What Liyuan Qianxia didn't know was that one day while she was waiting for the news, Grandpa Liyuan directly killed Kuwamoto Inbo's residence.

For the arrival of his old friend, Kuwamoto Inbo was a little surprised. He took a sip of tea slowly, raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said clearly, "If you come, don't ask to play chess with me. Three Treasures Hall? Tell me, what's the matter?"

Grandpa Liyuan narrowed his eyes and smiled flatteringly, "Oh, you still understand me! It's not a big deal, it's just a matter of effort for you."

"Tell me what it is first!" Kuwamoto Inbo was not so easy to fool.

Grandpa Liyuan was not angry either, and still smiled and said, "You know my granddaughter Qianxia? Doesn't she like Go? A few days ago she suddenly told me that she wanted to become a professional chess player. Aren't you Honinbo? Please be her teacher and guide her, it's not difficult, is it?"

Kuwamoto Inbo raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Just your granddaughter who hides behind you every time she sees me? Professional chess player? Are you kidding me?"

Grandpa Liyuan was upset, and raised his eyebrows, "What are you talking about? Qianxia was timid and afraid of you when she was young, but now that she has grown up, didn't you just see her last time? Why are you afraid of you? And I Why can't my granddaughter become a professional chess player?"

Kuwamoto Inbo snorted coldly, "Do you think that professional chess players can become professional chess players? In addition to talent, they also need to have a tenacious will and endure loneliness. Anyone can only pass the game day after day. In order to improve your strength, the level of professional chess players and amateur chess players is basically two worlds! If you don’t have enough awareness, don’t wishful thinking!”

What he said was serious enough that Grandpa Liyuan was suppressed for a while, but he felt that he was making too much of a fuss, so he couldn't help but retort, "It's not that serious, right? You may not pass the exam, you just guide her What does it matter? It's not too late to give up when she feels inappropriate."

Grandpa Liyuan thought he knew why his granddaughter wanted to become a professional chess player, but he didn't really expect her to pass the exam.He considers himself an enlightened parent, and he will not blindly suppress and oppose what his granddaughter wants to do. Only when she knows that this road will not work, will she give up willingly. Who is not young and frivolous? ?

Kuwamoto Inbo has played Go all his life, and he can't bear the contempt of others towards the professional chess world the most in his life.When Grandpa Liyuan said this, he became even angrier, even if it was an old friend, he didn't give face, "Go, if she just likes Go, I will be happy to guide her! But if you want to be a professional chess player with this attitude , Just one sentence: Don’t even think about it!”

Grandpa Liyuan was also angry, "You old bastard still took Joe? What kind of effort can it take if you just give me some advice? If you don't even want to help with this little help, are you still a friend?"

Grandpa Kuwahara glared at him angrily, "Anyway, it's impossible for me to guide her!"

He paused for a moment, rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of a good idea, "In this way, if you let her go to the Japanese Ki Academy, I will say hello to the teacher in charge of the college student exam. If her strength can be recognized, and If she can be promoted to the first group of college students within three months, then I agree to guide her!"

Grandpa Liyuan was excited by him, and said without hesitation, "Okay, it's a deal!"

In this way, Liyuan Qianxia was decided by the two old men without knowing anything about her next move.

She received a call from Grandpa Liyuan that night, and the old man on the phone described the situation with great indignation, and finally concluded angrily, "Qianxia, ​​you must be admitted to that college, let that old man Kuwahara see how good you are." !"

Liyuan Qianxia was silent on the phone for a long time, she really wanted to say: Grandpa, do you really know what a hospital student is?Do you really know how big the gap is between professional chess players and amateur chess players?

There is no doubt that if she was the original owner, she would be directly covered in blood.But Grandpa Liyuan is also kind, Liyuan Qianxia has nothing to complain about.

Kuwamoto Inbo is a person who loves Go more than his life, and his reaction is understandable, but the person who was despised was replaced by himself... There is always a little bit of displeasure!

Liyuan Qianxia originally planned to directly take the professional chess player examination that started in July as an outsider, but now she has changed her mind.

Since Sang Yuan deliberately made things difficult for Yin Fang and wanted her to quit, she insisted on being admitted to the hospital for him to see!Promoted to a group within three months?No, don't college students have to have a qualifying match every month?She only needs one month!

The next day, when Liyuan Qianxia was playing chess with Shinto Hikaru and Toya Ryo at the Zishui Go Salon, she casually stated her decision, and the two of them froze on the spot.

Shindo Hikaru said in disbelief, "You, you want to be admitted to the academy?!"

Ta Yaliang was shocked, and came back to his senses, "The most recent college student exam has ended in April, and the next one will have to wait until July, when this year's professional chess player exam preliminaries have already started. And with your Chess strength, there is no need to go to the college entrance examination, right?"

Liyuan Qianxia said calmly, "Isn't it possible to make an exception if there is a recommendation from a high-level shogi player? Kuwamoto Inbo's recommendation should be enough to make an exception, right?"

"Kuwamoto Inbo?" The two were taken aback again.

Liyuan Qianxia didn't want to explain the cause and effect of being underestimated, so she raised her eyebrows and glared at the two who seemed to have something to ask, "Can't you play chess anymore?"

That night, Ta Yaliang dialed Ogata's phone and told him that Li Yuan Qianxia was going to take the entrance exam.

Ogata also didn't understand Li Yuan Qianxia's intention in doing this, not to mention that with her chess skills, there was no need to take the entrance exam, even if she really wanted to take the entrance exam, wouldn't it be enough to just ask him for a recommendation?

Anyway, he is also the holder of the three titles of Celebrity, Ten-Dan and Little Chess Master. Isn't he more important than the old man Kuwahara who only has the title of Honinbo?

Realizing that he had lost his focus, Ogata quickly pulled back his thoughts: I didn't expect Liyuan Qianxia to know the old man Kuwahara. Could it be that she is the old man Kuwahara's disciple?

Thinking about it, Ogata felt that he was even more confused: Liyuan Qianxia's chess strength is not inferior to his. At her age, she can be called a rare genius. If she is under the old man Kuwahara, why is it so many years? Has there been any rumors about her?

Liyuan Qianxia's true chess strength has been revealed, but the fog that shrouds her body seems to be increasing.

If he couldn't figure it out, Ogata simply didn't want to.After hanging up Xiaoliang's phone, he made another call to Jiujin Qiduan who was in charge of the college student examination.

Those who go to take the entrance examination are all underage, so they need to be accompanied by guardians.Grandpa Liyuan was far away, so Liyuan Qianxia asked Mama Tezuka to go with her on the exam day.

Tezuka's mother knew very little about Go, and she had never been in contact with professional chess players, so she was shocked when she saw the whole building that belonged to the Go Academy.After entering the hall and seeing the rich decoration inside, she was even more surprised and exclaimed, "It looks amazing!"

Liyuan Qianxia smiled, "Of course!" Japan is also one of the three great Go countries, can the Go Academy not be more aggressive?

"Is it possible to become a professional chess player after being admitted to the academy?" Tezuka's mother asked curiously.

"Not necessarily. It can only be said that college students have a higher chance of being admitted to professional chess players. You must know that there are only three professional chess players admitted by Nihon Kiin every year." Li Yuan Qianxia explained.

"Only admit three people a year? Isn't that difficult?" Tezuka's mother exclaimed.

While talking, the two had already walked to the consultation desk.

Standing there was a middle-aged man. He had seen the two people walking in early in the morning, and heard the conversation between the two, and had guessed about Li Yuan Qianxia's identity.

Thinking of what he heard from Jiujin Qidan before, the middle-aged man looked at Liyuan Qianxia curiously, and asked with a smile, "Are you Liyuan-san?"

Liyuan Qianxia nodded to him, and felt that he was looking at her a little strangely, she didn't understand why.But there was no malice in his eyes, so she didn't pay much attention.

"Come with me."

The middle-aged man led Liyuan Qianxia and Tezuka's mother up to the sixth floor. After instructing them to change their shoes, the middle-aged man said to wait a while and left.

Tezuka's mother looked around, and saw someone kneeling upright in an open room, and there were constant slapping sounds inside, so she walked over and stood at the door to look in curiously.

In the huge room, many young children were playing the game with serious faces, and the atmosphere was quiet and solemn.

Tezuka's mother was taken aback, she stepped back a little, and whispered to Liyuan Qianxia, ​​"Are these all college students? They are all children~"

"Hehe, of course they are all children. Those who have gone a long way together in Go have all become professional players early on, and the upper limit of age for college students is high."

Tezuka's mother looked at Liyuan Qianxia who was smiling calmly and calmly, and always felt that she looked very different today, but if she asked her what was different, she couldn't tell right away.

At this time, the middle-aged man who had brought them up stood at the door of a room and waved to them, "Come in!"

The two walked in, and the middle-aged man who led the way did not follow. In the huge room, there was only another middle-aged man with glasses kneeling on the cushion in the middle, and a chessboard was placed in front of him.

Seeing the two people coming in, the man with glasses looked up and said to Liyuan Qianxia, ​​"Ah, you are Liyuan Qianxia-san, right? Please sit down." He raised his hand and motioned to the empty cushion opposite him.

"Hai!" Liyuan Qianxia was not used to kneeling, but out of respect, she didn't say anything, and imitated the man with glasses and sat upright.

"Chess records and registration straps?"

"Bring it." Liyuan Qianxia replied, while handing over the file bag in her hand.

The man with glasses, Jiujin Qiduan, has been observing her. Seeing that her expression is calm but not flustered, there is a trace of appreciation in her eyes: she is young, but her strength is second, and her mentality is very good.

I remembered that I suddenly received a call from Kuwamoto Inbo a few days ago, saying that he wanted to recommend a 17-year-old girl to take the entrance exam, and said that if the other party's strength is not up to the standard, there is no need to give him face.

Jiujin Qiduan heard that Sang Yuan didn't have much expectation for this girl because of the ins and outs of the words, and thought that someone had asked him to come to him, so he postponed the call.Unexpectedly, the celebrity Ogata also called the next day, also for this girl, and praised her a lot in words.

One is Honinbo, the other is a celebrity, two completely different attitudes.After Jiujin Qiduan was surprised, he couldn't help becoming curious about this girl he had never met.

While thinking, he took the file bag from Liyuan Qianxia, ​​unpacked it, and took out the registration form and three game records inside.

The registration form was placed on the top, and Jiujin Qiduan briefly scanned it, frowned slightly and thought in disappointment: This resume is too clean, right?Haven't even participated in an interschool competition?Don't you think that college students can just walk in through the back door?

Tezuka's mother paid close attention to the teacher's reaction, and when she saw him frowning, her whole heart rose.Seeing that Li Yuan Qianxia didn't feel nervous at all, she couldn't help feeling a little anxious: This kid!Are the nerves too thick?

Liyuan Qianxia gave her a comforting smile, then turned her gaze to the man on the opposite side of the chessboard: the resume is a bit cleaner, but...

After reading the resume on the registration form, Jiujin Seventh Dan has little hope for Liyuan Qianxia's Go level.It's just that when he turned to the first game record, he took a closer look and opened his eyes wide!
