Chapter 521: Semi-finals

And those advertisers, what they like more is these young chess and card masters, although their chess power is not as good as those of the world's top chess and card masters, but young, chess strength may not be as good as the world's top masters, but the fame is actually not worse than those top masters, and the price is not as expensive as those world's top masters.

Kari shrugged: "The runner-up should always look better than the third and fourth place." Obviously, Kari didn't agree with Yuki Soki's words that much.

Songqi Yuki shook his head: "To be honest, this time in addition to the champion, what runner-up, third runner-up and palace runner-up are all floating clouds, with our reputation, the thirty-two people participating in this competition, except for the champion, no one is rare and a runner-up, but unfortunately Alex exists, for the champion, I don't have too many ideas." ”

The thirty-two players who participated in this competition, basically all of them have won the championship, although it may have been only a provincial (state), national competition before, but it is also a champion, and this time the competition held by Hilton Academy, because they are the top Go junior masters around the world, the gold content is enough, but because the number of participants is not large, the fame is not as big as the ordinary competition.

Because of this, in addition to the champion, a runner-up, can not bring them too much fame.

Han Shengqi returned to Pang Longjun's side, Pang Longjun smiled and nodded: "Han Shengqi, you did a good job today, I hope you can make persistent efforts next!"

Han Shengqi nodded slightly: "Students understand!"

The quarter-finals have been concluded and the places for the semi-finals have been confirmed: Alex Bromfield of Great Britain, Han Shengqi of China, Yuki Songchi of Wakoku, and Kari Fillmore of Germany.

Soon, Hilton College also allocated the semi-finalists.

The semi-finals will be played tomorrow, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

In the morning, Alex Bromfield vs. Cary Fillmore, and in the afternoon, Han Shengqi vs. Songchi Yuki.

Because of the last game, Han Shengqi defeated Mondello Oreo, this time I know that Han Shengqi's opponent is Songchi Yuki, and not many people say that the loss will definitely be Han Shengqi.

Of course, because Han Shengqi only defeated Mondello by luck in the last game, in the eyes of everyone, it was not so easy for Han Shengqi to defeat Yuki Songchi in the semifinals, and it was another evenly matched game.

In the end, who can advance between Han Shengqi and Songqi Yuki depends on the performance of the two on the spot.

As for the match between Alex and Carry, naturally no one is optimistic about Carry, Carry is also a top master, in Germany, Carry's fame will definitely not be lower than Han Shengqi's fame in China, but still no one thinks that his chess strength is comparable to Alex, even including Carry.

When Cary learned that his opponent turned out to be Alex, he also looked lonely: "I'll go, I'm really a crow's mouth, I'll come whatever I'm worried about." ”

Songchi Yuki said: "Don't worry about Ma, maybe you will be lucky and be able to defeat Alex in one fell swoop." ”

Kari rolled his eyes: "Forget it, as the so-called no hope, there will be no disappointment, I know that I will lose, I don't have any hope." ”

If it were against another opponent, Kari still had the confidence to fight, but against Alex, he really didn't have any confidence that he could win.

After knowing the grouping of the semifinals, Han Shengqi and Pang Longjun also went back to the hotel directly.

Pang Longjun said: "Han Shengqi, your opponent tomorrow is not Alex, but don't be careless, then Songqi Yuki can advance to the semifinals, at least it will not be worse than your opponent today, you won today is also a bit of a fluke, tomorrow can not tolerate the slightest carelessness." ”

Although Han Shengqi's chess strength wants to win the championship, it is indeed a little difficult, and now it is better to advance to the finals first and then talk about the championship.

This championship is very important, if you can win the championship, you can make everything Hilton College do become the wedding dress of your own school, win thousands of chess games from universities around the world, and at the same time be able to combat the arrogance of Hilton College.

Of course, it is not so easy to win the championship, although Pang Longjun doesn't want to admit it, but Han Shengqi's chess strength is indeed a little far from winning the final championship.

Pang Longjun didn't force Han Shengqi to win the championship, he also understood that even if he forced Han Shengqi, it was useless, and the final result still depended on God's will.

Of course, even if you can't win the championship, you must at least advance to the final.

Han Shengqi nodded slightly: "Teacher Pang, don't worry, I still understand this." ”

Although Han Shengqi has never played Go with Songqi Yuki, he also knows that this person can advance to the semi-finals, how can his chess strength be bad?

Then, Han Shengqi and Pang Longjun had some casual dinner, and then returned to the room to continue studying Go, he did not immediately summon the chess soul to play, but seriously thought about the game of Go.

After most of the time, Han Shengqi began to play against the Alpha Dog this time, this time, Han Shengqi found that he was more able to understand the Alpha Dog's chess path, although Han Shengqi wanted to defeat the Alpha Dog, it was still unrealistic, but this time to break through the bottleneck on Go, the chess strength has indeed been greatly improved.

At the same time, the thinking is much clearer, and the things that I can't understand in front of me are not difficult now, this time I played Go with Mondoro, and Han Shengqi's receipt was indeed not small.

The only pity is that there is not enough time for Han Shengqi, but it doesn't matter, as long as the system is in hand, Alex's chess strength is strong, and it is also a floating cloud, everything that Hilton Academy does this time is bound to make a wedding dress for Han Shengqi and Han Shengqi's school.

The next day, the day of the semi-finals finally came, and after today's competition, tomorrow will be the final final.

The first match was Alex vs. Carry, but Han Shengqi still went to watch the game.

In just one day, even if Han Shengqi broke through the bottleneck, his chess strength could improve quickly in a short period of time, but it was still impossible to catch up with Alex in a day or two.

Alex and Cary went to the ring.

With Alex's chess strength, he doesn't care who he is up against, because he has the confidence to win, and in Alex's opinion, none of the players in this competition are his opponents.

Alex said coldly: "Kari Fillmore, you go first!"

This time, starting from the game, Alex let his opponent go first in every round.

Kari nodded slightly: "Since that's the case, then I'm welcome." ”

Although even if you make the first move, there is no hope of winning, but the first hand still has some advantages.
