[comprehensive] untouchable opponent

Chapter 038

Nippon Chess Academy, Morishita Kudan Research Association.

Today's chess game discussion is over. During the intermission, Shirakawa Hachidan looked at Shindo Hikari and Kazuya Yoshitaka who were chatting and chatting while laying out the game records, and said with a smile, "This year's young lion competition is about to start again, Shinto Junhe and Gujun should work hard!"

The contestants of the young lion competition are the top 20 of the college students and the [-] young professional chess players under the age of [-].

Yuki, who had just passed the age limit of the contestants, felt a little regretful, and then said gloatingly, "Last year's Young Lions competition was won by Toya Monshita Ryo, this year we Morishita Monshita can't lose!"

Hearing the word "Tayamonshita", Shinto Mitsukazu and Tani Yoshitaka instinctively froze, turned his head subconsciously, and saw Morishita-sensei's face full of forbearable anger.

"Shinto! Wada! This year's Young Lions Competition, you must prevent Ryo Taya from winning the championship no matter what!" Morishita-sensei knocked on the chessboard with the handle of his fan, raised his eyebrows and roared angrily.

Shinto Mitsukazu and Gu Yoshitaka shrank their necks at the same time, and looked sadly at Yuki who was propped on the floor and leaned back laughing.

Hegu Yigao said dissatisfiedly, "Yimu-san, you know you can't mention 'Tayamonxia' in front of the teacher, did you do it on purpose?"

Yuki Koji laughed even more happily, but soon he experienced the feeling of extreme joy begets sadness.

"And you, Yuki! Did you pass the first round of the ten-dan preliminaries and Ashihara under Taya's door? You must pass the second round before him!"

"Hey hey~" Mitsuki was stunned, this time it was Yoshitaka and Hitoshi Shinto's turn to laugh.

Two years ago, Toyayuki retired bravely and went overseas to sign a contract with the Chinese Chess Academy. As Mr. Morishita, who entered the chess world at the same time, he failed to defeat him openly in the title match, and there will be no chance again.Since then, Mr. Morishita, who originally regarded Taya's sect as a strong enemy, has become even more persistent about this, and all his disciples have been repeatedly warned.

It's just a cub competition...

When Shinto Hikaru thought of Liyuan Qianxia, ​​his eyes suddenly became very bright: With Xia's strength, there must be no problem at all in getting the qualification for the young lion competition, so that means, he will soon be able to compete with Xia in the official competition. It's game!

"Shinto, Shinto—"

"Ah, hi!" Hikari Shinto regained his senses after being hit on the head.

Morishita Kudan stared at him with raised eyebrows, "What are you thinking about Shindo! I'm telling you about the young lion competition. It is worth noting which professional chess players will participate this year. The two of you will study carefully in private. You can ask me any questions."

Shinto Hikaru rubbed his knocked head and muttered, "The opponents worth noting are not only professional chess players, but also college students!"

"What did you say?"

"……nothing."

Shindo Hikari had always been a little apprehensive towards Morishita Kudan, and after being stared at by him like this, he stopped talking, anyway, the teacher would know about Natsu sooner or later.

Nihon Chess Academy, the lobby on the first floor, two teachers from the Chess Academy chatted and walked towards the elevator.

"Mr. Jiujin, aren't you worried about the emotions of the students?" Suzuki Rokudan frowned slightly, and asked the people next to him worriedly.

Jiujin Qidan looked at him a little strangely, "What are you worried about?"

"The young lion competition is about to start, and the professional chess player's exam is only over a month away. Li Yuansang's sudden appearance has already dealt a big blow to the confidence of the students. Will this affect the future competitions and competitions?" The performance of the vocational exam?"

Jiujin Qiduan adjusted his glasses and said with a serious face, "Liyuan Sang is both a blow and an opportunity for the students. It depends on whether they can adjust their mentality."

Seeing that Suzuki [-]th Dan didn't seem to understand it, Jiujin [-]th Dan said, "Professional chess is a cruel place, and even this little blow can't stand it. Even if you enter the professional chess world in the future, you will only suffer more blows." .If you can adjust your mentality, you will have more room for improvement in the future.”

Suzuki Liudan thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "Mr. Jiujin is right. I just treated them as children, but I forgot that an eagle that does not experience wind and rain will never become the overlord of the sky."

"But speaking of it, Liyuan-san's chess skills are really amazing, but she is only 17 years old, her chess skills are even stronger than you and me, right? In the past, almost all the young lions were eliminated in the second round. This year's young lion competition will probably surprise everyone!"

Thinking of what kind of waves the appearance of Liyuan Qianxia would cause in the chess world, Jiujin Qidan also laughed, and he said jokingly, "Maybe this year's young lion champion will be the first ever student from a college~"

Just as he was talking, there was a ding, and the elevator arrived.The two looked over at the same time and saw that it was Morishita Kudan coming out of the elevator, so they smiled and nodded, "Mr. Morishita, good day."

After Morishita Kudan stood still, he asked suddenly, "You just said that the champion of this year's young lion competition might be a student?"

The two were taken aback at the same time, but Jiujin Seventh Dan reacted first, and he said, "Ah, there is a girl with strong chess skills among the students this year. Teacher Suzuki and I were just joking."

"Strong? How strong?"

When Morishita Kudan thought of the previous seminar, Hikari Shinto muttered that sentence. He heard it at the time, but he didn't take it to heart.Now that I overheard the conversation between the two, I was a little concerned.

Jiujin Qidan thought for a while and said, "When Liyuan-san came to take the entrance examination, the three-point game records that he brought were those of Wagata Mingren, Taya Sidan, and Shinto Sandan. Lost one game by a narrow margin and won the other two."

Morishita Kudan's eyebrows twitched, "Did you release the water on purpose?"

"Go all out."

Taya Yukihiro's son and Shinto Hikari are recognized as the best young chess players. Although their ranks are not high, their chess strength is comparable to that of six or seven-dan players.The two went all out and lost?Even the match against Ogata Mingren was lost by a slight disadvantage?

Morishita Kudan found it inconceivable, "There is such a person among the students in the hospital? It's called Liyuan, right? Why haven't I heard of such a powerful word before?"

Suzuki Liudan nodded in agreement, "Yes, that's right. This Liyuan-san seemed to have appeared suddenly. She is so powerful in chess, but she doesn't even have an instructor..."

Morishita Kudan quickly grasped the point, "Wait, you said she doesn't have an instructor? Isn't Ogata Meiren his instructor?"

"No. It was Kuwamoto Inbo who recommended her to take the entrance examination. We all thought she was a student of Kuwamoto Inbo, but she said that she has no instructor at all."

Why is it related to Kuwamoto Inbo again?

Morishita Kudan was a little confused, but he didn't struggle with it for a long time. All he knew was that such a talented chess player doesn't have an instructor yet? !Is this giving him a chance?

……

The central game room is very quiet, only the sound of the students pressing the timer can be heard, click, click, which makes people feel inexplicably nervous.

Jiujin's seventh-dan gaze wandered around the entire game room, and finally fell on the slightly thin, but straight and elegant back of the black-haired girl.

Today is the last day of the ranking match between May Academy students. Not surprisingly, Li Yuan Qianxia's name should appear within the top sixteen of a group.It took her only two weeks to rise from the last place in the second group to the top sixteen in the first group.

Some people are so talented that it will only make people feel powerless even to be jealous.

"I lost." The boy with a little baby fat said with a dejected expression.

Ah Fu is a simple and familiar person. Two weeks ago, when Liyuan Qianxia first came to the chess academy, everyone was still watching. He was the first to greet her and came to play chess with her.

So Liyuan Qianxia is already very familiar with him, and she is not polite when speaking, "Ah Fu, you play fast chess well, and to a certain extent, it can cause psychological pressure on the opponent. But it's only about the same chess strength. Big opponents are more effective, once the opponent is strong, the disadvantages of your rapid chess will be exposed."

Ah Fu shrank his neck a little aggrieved, "It's so refreshing to play fast chess..."

In this respect, Liyuan Qianxia feels that Ah Fu is very similar to herself.She likes to take the initiative to play chess, and kills chess fiercely. Ah Fu likes to play fast chess, and the intention is to play it refreshingly.

This is also the reason why Liyuan Qianxia liked him so much, so she didn't get angry when she heard his self-willed words. Instead, she said patiently, "There is nothing wrong with fast chess, but you have to minimize the disadvantages. Anyway, my game with you It's the last round of today, and it's still early, I'll practice a few more rounds with you."

"Ha, great!"

For two weeks, the minds of the students were severely traumatized.

The new Liyuan is very strong, and everyone is mentally prepared for it.But it was so strong that everyone in the second group couldn't last 10 minutes against her, and it was so strong that all the challengers in the first group were forced to admit defeat before the middle game... Isn't this too strong? !

Are you sure this person is not a professional chess player?

After the students in the house roared in their hearts, they were collectively confused... Can they really be admitted as professional chess players like this?Are there many professional chess players like this in the professional chess world?

The only one who is not affected is probably the simple-minded Ah Fu?Every time she played chess with Liyuan Qianxia twisted, she was tortured and killed game after game, and played again game after game.

In the end, everyone was able to relax from their confusion because of Imai.

Liyuan Qianxia concentrated on playing rapid chess with Ah Fu in five seconds, and the moves were so fast that she didn't even know when a large group of people surrounded her again.

"Ah, I can't do it, I lost again!" Ah Fu gasped and collapsed back.

Liyuan Qianxia pointed at a certain place on the chessboard and looked at him with raised eyebrows, "This game is better than just now, but this place, in fact, you don't have to blindly confront my offensive. If you play here instead, I have to separate The energy to defend back and forth, although the result of winning or losing will not change, but at least you can last a few more steps~"

Ah Fu propped up his body and carefully looked at what Liyuan Qianxia said, and then said with a face of death, "Although what you said makes sense, why do I feel better just dying like this?"

"Pfft..." I don't know who couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Standing behind Ah Fu, Jiujin Seventh Duan knocked him forcefully, "Liyuan-san is guiding you, listen carefully and study hard!"

Ah Fu quickly sat up straight, "Teacher Jiujin!"

Jiujin Qidan coughed lightly, "Okay, today's game is over, and the rankings of the May game are also out, and they are all posted there, you can go and have a look."

The crowd of onlookers dispersed, and Ah Fu also got up and ran away. Liyuan Qianxia stayed where she was and slowly packed the chess pieces. Jiujin Qiduan said with a smile, "Liyuan-san, congratulations on qualifying for the young lion competition."

Liyuan Qianxia was not surprised by this result, so she just calmly replied thank you.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly changed the subject, "Liyuan-san, didn't you say that you don't have an instructor yet? I wonder if you have any thoughts now?"

Liyuan Qianxia froze for a moment, "...Ah, this one, not yet."

"I met Morishita Kudan before, and he was very interested in you. Many high-level professional chess players will participate in Morishita's research. It should be helpful to you. You can think about it."

Jiujin Qiduan just mentioned it a bit, without forcing her to agree, and left after speaking.

Liyuan Qianxia stroked her chin and thought for a while: Morishita Kuduan Research Association...is Shinto participating in that?

"Liyuan-san..."

Liyuan Qianxia raised her head, and saw the freckled boy Imai standing next to her with an awkward expression, his eyes drifting away without looking at her, "Congratulations... for qualifying for the cub competition!"

Liyuan Qianxia thought this person was very funny, on the first day she was so proud and arrogant, she even cried after being defeated by her.As a result, he came running over the next day and stubbornly said, "Hmph, just wait, one day I will defeat you!"

Every time she played against someone else, he would run over to watch, and would blush if she caught him.

"Hehe, thank you." Liyuan Qianxia said with a smile, and sure enough, the tips of Imai's ears turned red again.

"summer!"

The only one who can call her by this name is Shinto Hikaru, Li Yuan Qianxia looked towards the door, and sure enough saw Shinto Hikaru standing there, but the expression...is not that good-looking.
