Chapter 52: The Sky is Above

Looking at Luo Xihe and Gu Dali's same expressions, Li Xiangping laughed silently, all of this was expected by him, because Li Xiangping himself had a similar expression when facing this change.

It must be mentioned that Li Xiangping's sacrifice today is not a "dog move", but a human formula.

No! This change can't even be called a "fixed formula", it can only be said to be one of the "variations" of a fixed formula, and it is a "variation" of the famous Go style "Muramasa Demon Knife".

The reason why it can only be called a "variation" is because it was previously believed that this change was not a "two-point", but that black should have the upper hand, even in special cases, and that "black is slightly better------

As we all know, if a change can be called a "fixed style" of Go, "two points" is the most basic requirement, then according to this standard, this change can of course only be called a "variation".

This variation of the "Muramasa Demon Knife" has left a deep impression on Li Xiangping, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is this variation that makes Li Xiangping have no confidence in human Go.

Why? Because of this change in the human perception that black is superior or black is slightly better, the judgment of Go AI is not like this at all. The Go AI not only thinks that white can play this way, but also that it still has an advantage after playing this way.

What Li Xiangping can't stand the most is that the Go AI not only thinks that white has an advantage, but also that it is not the kind of big advantage that is often obvious. How big is this advantage? ----- someone once used the Go AI to do a test, and the Go AI thought that when this change was played, the probability of black winning instantly decreased by 15 points.

When encountering such a thing, as a former Chongduan teenager and Li Xiangping, who has formally studied traditional Go for several years, will his view of Go collapse?

This is the "Muramasa Demon Knife"! It is known as one of the three large-scale and complex formulas of human beings, the "Muramasa Demon Knife"!

Although this formula does not represent all Go formulas, it is still not a problem to use it as a representative of the "Kome" formula.

But such a representative formula, which has been played by humans for hundreds of years, is not valid at all! Its first step is actually wrong.

Since this is the case, this makes Li Xiangping believe in what "evolutionary theory" and "technological accumulation" are on the lips of those derogatory factions every day?

Your wrong way of making a mistake will lead to a wrong judgment, and a wrong judgment will definitely lead to a new wrong way of playing, so your "accumulation of skills" .......

To be honest, it can be said that it is precisely because of the emergence of Go AI that Li Xiangping believes in Lao Cao's "genius promotes Go theory" even more.

For example, this "Muramasa Demon Knife", it is actually the same as Mr. Wu Qingyuan's first "big avalanche inflection", because there are masters who go like this, so everyone plays like this. Later generations just followed the trend.

If there is really any great progress in Go technology, then why haven't humans themselves denied this formula? It has not been denied for more than 100 years!

At the very least, like Mr. Wu Qingyuan, replace "external abduction" with "internal abduction".

Therefore, to be honest, Li Xiangping is very unimpressed by the disrespectful and disapproving remarks of some young chess players in later generations towards Mr. Wu.

At the time of Li Xiangping's crossing, which was the top professional chess player at that time or the peak Mr. Wu? Regarding this question, Li Xiangping still has to admit that Mr. Wu may not be able to get rid of those young people. It's not because of how powerful those young people are, it's just because there is a bigger "genius" of Go AI, and under the guidance of this bigger "genius", then Mr. Wu should no longer be an opponent.

However, before that, if you compare Mr. Wu with those young chess players, it may be Mr. Masaki Takemiya's evaluation that is the most appropriate:

"The chess we are playing now is actually the blessing of Mr. Wu, for me, no! For all professional chess players, Mr. Wu is like the sky! ”

Li Xiangping, Luo Xi and Gu Dali's research on this game of chess did not last long, for the simple reason that the focus of this game of chess was not on specific means, but on judgment. So for the judgment of Go, of course, there is no way for everyone to discuss it.

Especially this is still a familiar chess form, even if Li Xiangping knows that his judgment is more correct, even if he relies on this change to win a game of chess, but obviously, with his current weight, what he said cannot be immediately recognized by the two in front of him.

Li Xiangping naturally knew this, so after he finished the change, he simply shut up.

And at this time, Gu Dali suddenly said:

"Haha, I finally know now......"

Li Xiangping and Luo Xihe both looked at him, not knowing what he "knew".

Gu Dali patted Li Xiangping on the shoulder affectionately:

"I finally know now, why don't you refuse to be my junior brother, if you tell Nie Lao what you just said, then you can't make him angry to death, he may immediately expel you from the division, you must have thought about this problem before you refused to be my junior brother, right?"

Li Xiangping was stunned, and then smirked. And Luo Xihe laughed, and in the different laughter of the two, everyone's discussion of this game of chess ended hastily.

After the two left, Li Xiangping finally had the opportunity to communicate with his plug-in:

"Brother Ding'an, after this battle alone, you should have more confidence in your heart, right?"

"However, after this game, Ding'an is indeed more down-to-earth."

Li Xiangping breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, to say that the biggest gain from winning this game of chess is really not the variation of the "Murazheng Demon Knife", because although this variation is the first time he used it in actual combat, but when he was preparing for the war some time ago, Li Xiangping still discussed it with Lao Shi, so this game of chess can be regarded as prepared.

Technically, it is not a new harvest, but a more down-to-earth mood. Because although today's opponent is not the top, he can be regarded as a master of fame, especially in such a qualifier, Choi Myung-hoon's eighth dan can be regarded as above the average level.

Since such an opponent can win, and it is relatively easy to win, whether it is Li Xiangping or Shi Daqisheng, of course, they are more confident in the next game.

And that confidence was quickly reflected in Round 3 on Day 2. In this round, Li Xiangping once again encountered a young Korean chess player, because he had no impression of this person, Li Xiangping did not even remember his name after the game, only knew that he was a six-dan, and he was not yet 20 years old.

At less than two o'clock in the afternoon, the 87th hand in the overall situation, Li Xiangping, who held the black, won the dragon slaying quickly. Although it was not the first game to end in the game, it was the first of all Chinese players to win.

When he found the referee to confirm the signature, looking at the opponent's ugly face, Li Xiangping's heart was full of pleasure.

The reason is very simple, because the reason for winning this game is not how well he played, but that the opponent did not put the position right at all, and he really played it as a game of guidance chess against the amateur 5th dan, and all kinds of unreasonable moves were flying all over the sky.

So in the face of this situation, of course, Shi Da Qisheng will not be polite, and suddenly exerts force when he is less than 50 hands, less than 90 hands, and devours the opponent alive.

After 3 rounds of competition, Li Xiangping has actually entered the semi-finals of Group F, and he still needs to win two games of chess to qualify.

According to the schedule, you can rest for a day after the 3 rounds, and then launch a final sprint for the qualifying places.

On the day off, Li Xiangping mainly did two things, one was to send Chen Xiaoqiang, who had lived in the same room with him for several days, home.

After winning 2 games, Chen Yaoyue finally collapsed in the third round, and went home with him 6 other Chinese players, by this time, the Chinese team had been reduced by half, and 14 players were in the final two rounds.

The second thing Li Xiangping did, of course, was to participate in this round of the draw. So far, in addition to Li Xiangping, the remaining three players in Group F are Chinese chess player Luo Xihe 8th dan, South Korean chess player Kim Chenglong 7th dan, and Japanese veteran super first-class chess player Kobayashi Koichi 9dan.

"It's okay for anyone, don't let me smoke you pervert......"

Before the draw, Luo Shenzhu's joke caused the Chinese chess players to laugh, and he got his wish, and when he unfolded the small note in his hand, he and Kobayashi Koichi's hands were together.

So in this way, Li Xiangping once again encountered a Korean chess player, who was the winner of this year's Korean "King of Kings" competition, and the "famous mouth" of Korean Go, Kim Sung-ryong, 7th dan.
