Interstellar Miner

Chapter 861
The office hall of Chess Academy.

The results of the first assessment of the first round have come out, and Zi Cheliang handles those rather troublesome trivial matters skillfully.

After all, the number of candidates is too large, the first round of the first round is the most hectic, and it is easy to have loopholes. There will always be some snakes, rats and ants with illusions.Treating that kind of guy must not be soft-hearted, but must be dealt with strictly.

Snakes, rats, rats and ants are only a very small number after all, so they can jump for a while at the beginning, but there is no chance for them to jump later.

The real trouble is those Go clubs and organizations that do not follow the right path.They formed gangs, lashed out at each other, practiced favoritism, and tried to pass the recruitment assessment through improper means.These are the guys to focus on.

Zi Cheliang also knew that because of the assessment system, many good candidates would be eliminated, and only candidates with a high and stable winning rate could sprint to the end.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with it, but in fact it is the biggest problem of Chess Academy now.

Whether it is a college student or a professional chess player, the winning rate is the first priority.

If college students want to advance to the advanced class and become professional chess players, they can only continue to win, relying on their actual winning rate to advance; professional chess players want to advance to the stage, relying on their actual winning rate, if the winning rate is low, they will fall. stage bit.

Such a system has created a large group of Go playing machines that are almost infallible, and they can indeed sweep the field outside, strengthening the prestige of the Academy of Go.

But Zi Cheliang, who stood at the apex, saw great hidden dangers. If things go on like this, the supposedly infinitely broad road of Go will subtly become narrower and narrower, becoming a gray and white world with only winners and losers left.

Zi Cheliang still remembers that the master asked him and Ah Guang to be the bodyguards of Liu Xing's younger brother, leaving the Chess Academy to practice around the world.

Previously, Zi Che Liang and He Jiaguang had been playing chess face to face in the chess room in the small courtyard of the master. Although the brothers had played chess many times, every time they played chess, they always became depressed and dull without knowing it. Every step was taken. You have to be careful, gradually, the chess moves become narrower and narrower, basically there is no change until the middle game, and the discussion after the game always unknowingly turns into a quarrel.

And this time as Liu Xing's bodyguard, the first task is to protect Liu Xing's younger brother. Even if the two play blindfolded chess to pass the time, they always pay a lot of attention to the surroundings. As a result, they inadvertently played a chess game that is very different from the past. , Even if there are objections during the discussion, there is no extra energy to argue, and more is to think about the unknown.

After only seven or eight games of chess, Zi Cheliang and He Jiaguangzi were surprised to find that there were suddenly many mysterious gates on their narrower and narrower chess paths, and the road in the distance was even more foggy. In general, the feeling is so wonderful!

The mystery of Go is really beyond rational language can describe!

If you go alone, it is difficult to find those mysterious doors, let alone push them open; but when two people walk together, they can go hand in hand, push open one door after another, and explore those mysterious unknowns together. Improve progress together.

Compared with these, winning or losing really doesn't matter at all!

It was only then that Zi Cheliang and He Jiaguang deeply realized the good intentions of their master in arranging their experience. They were always confined to the Chess Academy, and the chess path would only become narrower and narrower. They gradually forgot that there is an extremely vast world outside.

Moreover, there are basically one or two folk masters in folk chess halls. Even if their chess skills are far inferior to professional chess players, their unconstrained style of chess can always make people's eyes shine, broaden their thinking, and benefit a lot.

Since then, Zi Cheliang and He Jiaguang are no longer confined to the Chess Academy, and will go to various parts of the world to broaden their horizons and make continuous progress when they have time, so that they can achieve their dream of God's Hand.

But this is not the end, Zi Cheliang is very clear that he still has many shortcomings, and there is still a very long distance from the master, so he must persevere and work hard.

It's just that Zi Cheliang also pays great attention to the cultivation of the new generation. Whenever he sees the college students and professional chess players staring at the winning rate, he always feels bitter, but there is no good way. Elimination, who doesn't care about the winning percentage?Even I dare not say this myself.

Zi Cheliang thinks that the Chess Academy only recruits 100 new students every [-] years. will shine.

Zi Cheliang also paid a little attention to He Jiaguang's disciple Kang Tianyuan. His opponent's chess strength in the first game was really not good, and he couldn't see Kang Tianyuan's real strength.

In addition, Yun Shishuang, Kang Xiaomu, and Li Chongfei, who are He Jiaguang's registered disciples, also passed the first round smoothly. Zi Cheliang is also looking forward to how far they can go.

Chess Saint Courtyard, Mo Xuan's quiet courtyard.

He Jiaguang and Mai Xia are playing a 25-way game of Go.

Zi Cheliang was the chief examiner, and Zhu Fanrou, Qiu Tai, and Si Junxian all helped invigilate the exam, so there were only young couples in the small courtyard who needed to avoid suspicion.

The Chess Academy's recruitment assessment will last for about half a year, and it's not a problem to just sit and wait for the result, so the young couple sneaked a game of chess.

He Jiaguang's chess skills are superb, but Mai Xia is not a vegetarian. She has already reached the ninth dan of her career, and she has always won and lost against He Jiaguang.

The private game between the two was more casual, chatting while playing chess.

Mai Xia sighed, "Tian Yuan has really grown up and matured."

He Jiaguang nodded and sighed, "Time flies so fast."

Mai Xia looked at He Jia's bright eyes and said, "Kang Xiaomu is getting more and more beautiful, and Yun Shishuang is also a great beauty."

Ahem, He Jiaguang choked a little, and gave Mai Xia a blank look.

The conscience of heaven and earth, He Jiaguang has never had any strange thoughts about Yun Shishuang and Xiaomu, but he had a little interest in Mai Xia's best friend Zhu Fanrou back then, and fantasized about hugging left and right to enjoy the blessings of everyone.However, Mai Xia couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes, so He Jiaguang gave up her flowery thoughts.

Mai Xia chuckled and said, "Okay, I'm not joking anymore. If Yun Shishuang and Kang Xiaomu behave well, I can consider taking them as disciples."

He Jiaguang shrugged: "It's up to you."

As for whether Tianyuan, Xiaomu and the others can be admitted to the Chess Academy, He Jiaguang and Mai Xia don't care much.To be honest, the current Chess Academy is no longer the pure Chess Academy at the beginning, it is a bit dirty, and it may not be suitable for Tianyuan and the others to improve their chess skills.

Zhu Sheng, Hang Chen and the others had lunch in the cafeteria, and when they returned to the small courtyard together, they saw Kang Tianyuan playing chess games alone in the courtyard, and they couldn't help but go over curiously to watch.

I thought that Kang Tianyuan was replaying his first assessment, but after watching it for a while, it didn't look like it. The black and white moves are a bit messy, what is this?
Kang Tianyuan smiled and said: "In my spare time, I like to play a game with myself. I can analyze my Go from the opponent's point of view, and I can always gain something."

Oh, is it okay?Zhu Sheng, Hang Chen and the others looked at each other in amazement, as if they made sense, since they had nothing to do in the afternoon anyway, so they just practiced their hands.

Zhu Sheng, Hang Chen and the others took action and set up a chessboard in the yard, taking themselves as their opponents. As a result, they all felt uncomfortable in this game.On the one hand, he is too familiar with his own chess moves, and on the other hand, the number of moves he deduces is the same, no matter whether he is attacking or defending, he cannot be quickly formed, and the chess game is quite chaotic.

Kang Tianyuan pointed out: "Everyone can change the angle and think of it, and treat it as a face-to-face game."

Huh, that's right, Zhu Sheng and Hang Chen tried to walk across the chessboard, and they really had a very different perception from before. It turned out that this is how the chess game is viewed by the opponent.

Zhu Sheng and Hang Chen felt incomparably novel. After a game, they had a deeper understanding of their own chess moves.

marvelous!Hang Chen happily patted Kang Tianyuan on the shoulder, and praised: "Tianyuan, you are really our lucky general!"

Kang Tianyuan smiled slightly, and said: "Everyone can practice properly, there will be a second assessment tomorrow."

"Understood." "Ann."

Zhu Sheng and Hang Chen continued to practice enthusiastically.

Kang Tianyuan watched in the yard for a while, then returned to the No. [-] wing to rest.

In the No. [-] wing next door, Di Haoying, who was walking alone, looked at the hustle and bustle in the yard, and couldn't help trying to play a game with herself, and really learned a lot.In fact, Mr. Wo Yan has already mentioned some points, but there is no such intuitive expression.

Di Haoying squinted her eyes in deep thought. It seemed that Kang Tianyuan's passing the first assessment was not a fluke, but the next assessment was the real test.

In the big waves washing the sand, half of the candidates in each assessment will be brushed out, and the more difficult it will be as it goes on.

Kang Tianyuan is not even a half-immortal, so how could he go far.

Di Haoying closed his eyes and rested his mind. At dawn, he just adjusted his state to the best. When the courtyard was quiet, he walked out of the wing room and headed for the examination room.

This time Di Haoying's opponent is a Xuanxian chess player, Di Haoying is an Earth Immortal, but he is not flustered at all.Di Haoying has such self-confidence. As long as she doesn't meet a student-level master, there is no pressure for her to pass the first round of assessment. Even if she does, she will definitely win!
Di Haoying Shi Shiran returned to the small courtyard and directly entered the No. [-] wing.

Gradually, the yard became lively again.

"Haha, all six of our brothers have passed. I wonder how Tianyuan is doing?"

"Oh, I didn't leave a contact information either."

Di Haoying was a little surprised. It seems that the candidates in the yard are quite capable this time.

"Tian Yuan, you kid didn't call us when you were eating."

"Let's go, let's go to eat quickly."

……

Di Haoying was taken aback, Kang Tianyuan also passed the second round, his luck must be great.

Di Haoying didn't bother to pay attention to so many, and closed her eyes to rest herself.

Game three.

Di Haoying Shi Ran returned to the small courtyard, but saw that Kang Tianyuan was already in the courtyard.

Um?Di Haoying was taken aback, Kang Tianyuan didn't go to the examination room?Could it be possible to win again?
Kang Tianyuan casually bowed to Di Haoying.

Di Haoying bowed back, and went straight into the No. [-] wing.

Kang Tianyuan blinked, this young master is so withdrawn, he has been shutting himself in the wing room all the time, not making a sound.

"Wow, Tian Yuan, you're all back."

"Is it waiting for us to eat?"

Zhu Sheng and Hang Chen came back together, and seeing Kang Tianyuan couldn't help but secretly startled. Brother Tianyuan can pass three tests in a row at this age, and he will get it in the future!

The three of them waited for a while, only to wait for the three of them to come back, after all, one of them was eliminated from the same courtyard.

This is also unavoidable. After three games in our small courtyard, we can keep six people, no, seven people, which is already quite good.

Hang Chen clapped his hands and said hello: "Tian Yuan's stomach is growling, let's go eat quickly."

Along the way, Kang Tianyuan and his entourage saw many small courtyards nearby that seemed to be empty and frozen, and the cheerful atmosphere could not help but become a little dignified.

The canteen, which was always jam-packed with meals, suddenly became much more empty, and the atmosphere was quite dull.

This year, only one-eighth of the new candidates for the Chess Academy recruited.

Hang Chen clicked his tongue and said: "Our small courtyard can do it, look at how many people we have, how powerful we are."

Zhu Sheng echoed, "That's right! Let's eat and drink enough to welcome the next game."

After lunch, Zhu Sheng, Hang Chen and the others played rapid chess against each other in the yard, warming up and sharpening.

In the past, everyone was fighting on their own, with reservations about each other, but now they are getting acquainted, and they have reached a consensus to work together without knowing it.

To be honest, Zhu Sheng and the others are very curious about Kang Tianyuan's chess strength, but they also know that Kang Tianyuan's cultivation is limited and it is not appropriate to bother him, otherwise he will have to pull Kang Tianyuan to play a game.

Sure enough, everyone's chess skills are very high. Kang Tianyuan watched with great interest for an hour, and was a little tired. He said hello and went back to the wing to rest.
