After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

“This year’s competition went relatively smoothly. Zhan Lang, you can relieve a lot of pressure now. Fortunately, we had a smooth start, otherwise it would not be much better than the second session.

But now it's not a big problem, there are only two people left on the Japanese team, even if Fang Yuan can't win tomorrow, you only have two opponents left, which can be said to be the easiest one for you in the three sessions."

Chen Long couldn't help but smile and said something as he looked at Fang Yuan who won today's game.

After all, the situation is very good for the Chinese team now. It is rare that both China and Japan have two people left at the end, and the Chinese side also has Zhan Lang, who has won eight consecutive games in the ring matches so far and has no defeat.

It can be said that everyone is now full of confidence! Many people have even opened champagne and think that they can win the third term.

The third China-Japan Go Challenge Tournament has been going on for more than half, and the competition process can be said to be quite ups and downs. During the period, the Chinese team took the lead and won four consecutive victories. The Japanese team also won five consecutive victories in the middle and late stages to respond to the Chinese team.

But Fang Yuan ended the opponent's six-game winning streak today, and now both China and Japan have two people left.

The Chinese side still has Zhan Lang and Fang Yuan, and the Japanese side still has two top-notch players, Kenichi Mitsuba and Masao Toya, 9th dan.

This situation is considered relatively good among the three competitions.

It can even be said that China has never fought such a prosperous battle in several boxing matches.

When Zhan Lang appeared in the first ring match, there were still three strong opponents left on the Japanese team who challenged Zhan Lang one by one. The second ring match was even more outrageous. When Zhan Lang was the only one left on the Chinese team, there were still five of the nine people on the Japanese team, and the remaining half needed to be dealt with by Zhan Lang alone.

It can be said that the first two competitions can be called a battle between the waves and my teammates who are just slacking off.

Except for Fang Yuan and others who played a slight role, most people basically just scanned their faces.

Even during the second session, Zhan Lang couldn't help but complain when he was interviewed, saying that he hoped the players of the Chinese team could be a little more powerful and not put all the pressure on themselves.

Even if you let me fight less, that's fine! You can't always lose a game, right?

People can't, at least they shouldn't!
In the third competition, Zhan Lang’s wish finally came true.

Even if Fang Yuan loses to Mitsuba Kenichi tomorrow, the Japanese team will only have two people left, which can be said to be the one with the fewest opponents in the three ring matches.

Zhan Lang's burden is also the lightest among the three competitions.

"Finally, you can relax this year."

After hearing what Dean Chen Long said, Zhan Lang couldn't help but complain: "It's not easy at all. At least I can feel relaxed after I cleared Sanye Jianyi. You can't keep the top-notch ones for me every year."

It can't be that the number of enemies on our side depends on how many top-notch troops Japan has sent out, right?

Besides myself, there must be someone else who can defeat Japan's top-notch players, like Fang Yuan?
Theoretically speaking, even if it’s the Genshin Impact’s big guaranteed release, Fang Yuan should have been out by now!
"Alas, Fang Yuan's skills are up to par, but his mentality is his biggest problem..."

Hearing this, Chen Long couldn't help but shook his head.

Before Zhan Lang, Fang Yuan was the player with the highest hopes in Chinese Go. Although his growth had already reached everyone's expectations, his performance in several tournaments made everyone both satisfied and dissatisfied.

Because Fang Yuan has indeed defeated many Japanese chess players who posed a threat to China, but every time he encountered a top-notch player, Fang Yuan seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit and was defeated easily.

To be honest, Fang Yuan's skills must have reached the top-notch level. In fact, even if he has not reached this level, Qiang Jiudan is not without a chance of winning after facing top-notch opponents so many times.

The reason why Japan's top-notch players are called top-notch is because they are obviously a level stronger than other nine-dan players, especially in title battles.

If we list the data on the number of titles won by Japan, basically more than 70% of the titles have been won by top-notch people. It can be said that it has reached a monopoly level.

However, other 9th dan and even lower dan players have also had the experience of winning titles. However, compared with the monopoly of the top-notch players, their title holdings were more often just a flash in the pan, and they could not achieve consecutive title dominance as often as the top-notch players.

Although the title match is extremely conducive to monopoly as one only needs to wait for the final challenge game after winning, it can still be seen that the top-notch team dominates the Japanese Go world.

But they are still human after all, and just as the data shows, they can only monopolize 70 to 80 percent of the time, and there will still be other times when others will take advantage of them. But taking advantage of others also requires strength as the basis.

Fang Yuan obviously has the ability to take advantage of the situation. Theoretically, they have had quite a few top-notch games against Japan, and they should have been able to pick up one, but they always lose and cannot win a single game.

To some extent, this is actually a bit outrageous.

There were even several times when Fang Yuan clearly had a good advantage, but he scared himself to death because of the content.

Therefore, what Fangyuan lacks now when facing the top-notch opponents is not technology, but mentality.

Everyone can assist him with technical matters, help him analyze the opponent's weaknesses, and help him improve his special skills.

Everyone can do their best to help with these, and it won’t even be a problem!
But it's a problem of mentality. After all, this is not a mental illness. Even if he seeks help from a psychologist, it won't be of much help. He can only adjust himself.

Or when Fang Yuan really wins a top-notch game, his mentality will naturally adjust back to normal.

But looking at him like this, I always feel that I don’t know how long I have to wait.

With this mentality, he was still able to defeat the top-notch opponent. Unless Fang Yuan's skills improved significantly and he had an advantage over the opponent, it might be possible.

But if you think about it carefully, this kind of situation is even less likely to happen.

"It's difficult!"

Chen Long couldn't help shaking his head as he looked at the two people reviewing the situation inside. In fact, they had done what they were supposed to do, including psychological counseling, constant positive encouragement, and even a psychologist had been found.

It is going to fail. The Go team’s leadership has no other options. All they can do now is let nature take its course.

Zhan Lang actually also hopes that Fang Yuan can stand up. After all, there is a shortage of talent in the country. If Ri Tian and others want to grow and form a stable force, it will be useless without four or five years.

After all, the amount of training and competition in the country is indeed still slightly insufficient, which is also a delay in the growth of young chess players.

Now the only force most likely to form a force against Japan is Fangyuan.

If he doesn't stand up, the pressure on Zhan Lang will only increase.

"Is he so afraid of the top-notch? So afraid that he has developed a mental disorder? Can a strong medicine be used to change him?"

"How to change it? Especially the next round is against Mitsuba Kenichi. Fang Yuan was very powerful in the first round but lost to him. In the second round, I thought we could meet him again, but we were defeated before we even met him.

If I were to say who Fang Yuan has the worst mentality towards, I think it would be him! I am not optimistic about tomorrow’s game either.”

"Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine! Since he is afraid of a person, if he is made more afraid of a more terrifying object, will the original fear be diluted?"

After hearing what Zhan Lang said, Chen Long was also confused. What did he mean by someone who made him more afraid?

You?

Isn't he afraid of you enough?

And is there any conflict between his fear of you and his fear of the top-notch?

Zhan Lang looked at Chen Long's puzzled eyes and shook his head. That kind of fear was not enough. He needed the kind of fear that would shatter his worldview and be a complete and thorough fear.

Having seen the immortal cultivators, do you still think how powerful Qiao Feng with a speaker is?
