Interstellar Miner

Chapter 859
The fortunes of the brothers are different. Baili Chong struggled hard at the bottom of the tenth class; Tails linger on, their faces are gray and defeated; A Jian and A Shuang have been eliminated by the Chess Academy, and they have the cheek to beg for life in the Little Fairy World of the Chess Academy, but there is not much pressure on them, and they are happy.

It looks like a big difference, but in fact, when the brothers play chess seriously, there is not much difference in chess skills, and there are wins and losses for each other.

The reason why it became like this is that the gap lies in the tiny winning percentage.

Nowadays, there are no such monsters in the student department that can maintain a complete victory and continue to advance. There is only a difference between a higher winning rate and a lower winning rate.

Are Ah Jian and Ah Shuang, who have been eliminated, really inferior to the students in Class Ten?Baili Chong didn't dare to say this, he just had better luck and won a few more rounds.

Baili Chong tried his best and tried every means, but he just wanted to win a few more rounds in the life-and-death qualifying match and keep his status as an intern.

As for continuous advancement, standing out from the student department to become a professional chess player, Guangzong Yaozu, that is already a dream that Baili Chong had only had a long time ago.

The current Bailichong can't see the road ahead at all, maybe he will be relieved if he is eliminated by the Chess Academy like A Jian and A Shuang.But when he thought of A Feng and A Dian who were still struggling in the gecko's tail, how dare Baili Chong give up lightly.

Baili Chong cleared up his mood, drove the battleship of the Chess Academy to quickly complete the task of picking up the candidates, and returned directly to the Little Immortal World of the Chess Academy through the special passage, and parked in the special battleship tower.

Bailichong's task of driving the battleship to pick up the candidates has been successfully completed, but there is still work to guide the candidates to sign up.

"Look, Chess Academy!"

"It's spectacular!"

Standing on the high tower, all the examinees could not help feeling overwhelmed and unable to contain themselves for a long time as they looked at the ingenious and majestic Chess Academy surrounded by fairy mist and high mountains.

Kang Tianyuan's face was also flushed. After all, the Chess Academy that he saw in the news was quite different from what he saw with his own eyes.

Kang Tianyuan took a deep breath, clenched his fists, Chess Academy, here I come!
"Please follow me in an orderly manner. The registration time is about to close, but there should be still time to ensure that everyone can register smoothly." Baili Chong clapped his hands and smiled to guide the candidates to the crowded registration hall through the teleportation array .

"Everyone line up. To sign up, you only need to register your name, age, gender, place of origin, and home address. Everyone prepares in advance."

Bailichong was on the spot to help maintain order in the hall and guide candidates to register.

Kang Tianyuan was right behind Di Haoying, and it didn't take long to advance to the registration point. He filled out the registration form with his thoughts in a hurry, and got his examinee card.

Kang Tianyuan stepped aside quickly, and played with the black and white examinee cards with great interest, it felt so tall.Kang Tianyuan imitated Di Haoying and hung the candidate card on his belt, very stylish.

Bailipong still had a job, so he led Kang Tianyuan and his party to the candidates' dormitory area, and explained the precautions before the exam.

"You are all in the same dormitory complex. There is a cafeteria and bathhouse in the community. You can move around on your own, but cross-community interactions are not allowed. The examinee cards will also have corresponding reminders. I suggest that you have a meal, take a bath, and rest early , recharge your batteries and prepare for tomorrow's assessment with all your strength."

The dormitory area is set up at the foot of the Chess Academy mountain. It looks small, but in fact tens of millions of candidates live in it.

Baili Chong stopped in his tracks and bowed to the examinees, "I'll send it here. I wish you all success in the exam, and see you at the Chess Academy."

Thanks to your auspicious words, all the candidates bowed back and watched Baili Chong heroically drifting towards the Chess Academy on the top of the mountain. This is the student of the academy. When will we be able to fulfill our wish.

Di Haoying clenched her fists secretly, this time I must be named on the gold list.

A group of candidates entered the gate of the dormitory area and went to their respective dormitories according to the instructions of the candidates' cards.

Kang Tianyuan was quite excited. He finally came to the Little Immortal Realm of the Chess Academy. His cousin and the others should have signed up. I don't know where they live. I think there should be separate dormitories for men and women.

Kang Tianyuan couldn't help thinking of Li Chongfei, that guy must have applied for the exam, how is his chess skill now?Kang Tianyuan smacked his lips, full of anticipation.

After a few teleportation circles, only Di Haoying was left beside Kang Tianyuan.The two finally walked outside a small courtyard.

Kang Tianyuan grinned, and said to Di Haoying: "It seems that we live together."

Di Haoying smiled faintly and walked directly into the small courtyard.Kang Tianyuan followed closely behind.

The seven candidates in the courtyard were chatting openly, and when they saw the two walking in, they looked over in unison.Di Haoying looked like a son of a family, but what was Kang Tianyuan doing?

The seven candidates stood up and bowed.

"Haha, the nine people in our small courtyard are complete."

Kang Tianyuan and Di Haoying bowed back.

Introduce each other and get to know each other.

Seven people including Zhu Sheng and Hang Chen.

There are nine rooms in a small courtyard, which can be said to be quite simple, but it is much better than Kang Tianyuan's humble room when he took the spaceship.

Di Haoying babbled a few words politely, then went to his No. [-] wing to rest.

Kang Tianyuan, on the other hand, listened to the nonsense of the seven candidates with relish. They are all veterans and have applied for the exam many times, but failed in the first round of assessment every time.

"Wow, is the first round of assessment so difficult?" Kang Tianyuan said in surprise.

"Of course it's difficult. You can't think carefully when playing fast chess, but you can't lose a game."

"My best record is going to the penultimate game."

"Now I have no hope of passing the first round of assessment. I came here for reference purely to be able to play against masters."

"Tianyuan, you are still young. If you participate more now, you can go further in the future."

According to the practice of the new recruitment assessment of the Chess Academy, candidates from the same small courtyard will be disrupted, and it is impossible to meet them in the first round of assessment, so the atmosphere in each small courtyard is quite harmonious, and there is no need for intrigue or anything.

In fact, the big guys knew it in their hearts. After each assessment, half of each small courtyard would be vacant. After four or five rounds, empty small courtyards abound.

Being able to be assigned to the same small courtyard is also fate, and there is no harm in taking advantage of the opportunity to have a good relationship. Multiple friends have multiple paths.

Kang Tianyuan nodded, remembering that the master explained that the first round of the Chess Academy's assessment was a two-hour [-]-way Go game, and it adopted a single-elimination system. If you lose a game, you can only wait for the next assessment in a hundred years. up.

For Kang Tianyuan with limited deduction ability, the time limit of two hours is considered slow chess, but for the immortals with strong deduction ability, it is troublesome fast chess, and it is really impossible to cover everything.

Kang Tianyuan scratched his head and said, "My master taught me that fast chess is the easiest way to make use of a player's strengths, and at the same time magnify his weaknesses, so playing steadily is the key to victory."

The seven candidates in the courtyard couldn't help being stunned. At first glance, this is not surprising. Isn't rapid chess just like that, but if you look closely, it really hit the nail on the head. We lost all games because our opponents caught the loopholes. With the shortcomings, we may not lose in a serious game of chess!

"Tall! Really tall!" Zhu Sheng slapped his thigh hard.

Hang Chen admired him sincerely: "Tianyuan, your teacher is really a master. If you have the opportunity, you must recommend it to me."

"Steady wins, the original point is here!"

"This time I said nothing and stopped thinking about winning by surprise, and played the game step by step, maybe I can play a few more games."

……

In the No. [-] wing, Di Haoying curled her lips, like this every time, the yard was noisy at first, and she wished she could ask for help on the spot, but after one or two games, it became cold.

Di Haoying didn't bother to pay attention to these things, and continued to close her eyes to rest her mind. She must adjust her condition to the best and pass the first round of assessment first.

The eight people in the courtyard were chatting happily, and the sky got a little dark before they knew it.

"It's getting late, let's go eat, or the cafeteria will be too crowded." Zhu Sheng greeted, and called Di Haoying at the door of the eighth wing.

Di Haoying declined on the grounds of bigu.

Zhu Sheng didn't take it seriously, and led Kang Tianyuan and his party to the cafeteria, had dinner, and then went to the bathhouse to take a beautiful bath, and returned to the small courtyard comfortably.

"Everyone, let's rest, the battle will start tomorrow."

"Have a good dream."

"Good night."

……

Kang Tianyuan returned to his No. [-] wing and lay down on the simple wooden bed, but he didn't feel much sleepy for a while.

Kang Tianyuan rested his head on his arm, and sighed for a while. He finally came to the Chess Academy and reached this step.Although Chess Academy is so lofty, but I have already stood at the foot of the mountain, and the next step is to bravely climb the peak!

Kang Tianyuan also knew that it would be extremely difficult to be admitted to the Chess Academy, but didn't all the roads come out of the way!How can you reach your goal if you don't walk or break through!

Kang Tianyuan exhaled, it's better not to think about it, and go to bed quickly.

At the same time, the women's dormitory area.

Yun Shishuang and Kang Xiaomu were lucky enough to be in the same small courtyard, and the master and apprentice competed together and won a lot of attention.

Originally, Kang Xiaomu didn't intend to rush to attack the Chess Academy so early, but her cousin Tian Yuan had already made up her mind, so she was not willing to lag behind.Take the test, let's take the test together!
It's just that Tian Yuan went out to practice for more than ten years, and he could only communicate once a month. Kang Xiaomu was really worried, for fear that Tian Yuan would be bullied outside, and he would not have enough food and clothing to keep warm.

Kang Xiaomu frowned. He and his teacher set off two months in advance, so they barely caught up with the registration. I don't know what happened to Tianyuan?

Yun Shishuang comforted: "Xiao Mu, don't think too much. Tian Yuan is a boy, and he has been wandering outside for many years. He will take care of himself. The exam will start tomorrow, we have to rest and recharge our batteries. .”

Kang Xiaomu nodded obediently, go to sleep.

……

Most of the candidates in the dormitory area have already rested.

However, the Chess Academy is brightly lit, and the office hall is full of streams. Finally, the statistics of this year's candidates have been completed.

Because of Kang Tianyuan and others' reference, He Jiaguang had to avoid suspicion, so the chief examiner for this year's recruitment is Zi Cheliang Jiuduan.

He Jiaguang checked the statistical results, and as expected, this year's applicants reached a new high, with more than 500 million candidates.

Zi Che Liang couldn't help but secretly shook his head and smiled wryly. With such a large number of candidates, it is too harsh to only select the top [-] candidates.But the more this is the case, the more candidates sign up.

This of course means that the number of people who love Go in the fourth layer of time and space is increasing, and chess halls in various places are springing up like mushrooms, and the treatment of chess players will not be bad.

As the chief examiner, Zi Cheliang didn't need to work too hard. He picked up the talisman pen and circled it a few times, and the system of this year's new recruitment assessment was finalized.

Similar to the previous recruitment assessments, the first round of assessments adopts a ten-round system, and single defeat means elimination. In a group of more than 500 candidates, only one person can break out of the encirclement, and a total of only [-] candidates will participate in the second round of assessments.

In the second round of assessment, a group of more than 500 candidates, double-elimination system, a maximum of two people break through, a total of only 120 people participated in the third round of assessment.

The third round is also the final assessment, and 20 people can be named on the gold list.

Really one in a million!
