Jia Zhengming's interview went smoothly, it seemed that everything had been arranged, and his questions Zhao Ya's parents answered very directly and simply.

But it was this kind of direct and straightforward answer that made Jia Zhengming feel that there seemed to be some hidden secrets that he didn't know.

However, the answers to these questions are enough to write a very sensational topic, a rising beautiful girl national player, is definitely enough to attract attention.

Of course, this must be Zhao Ya get enough good results in this Nine Cities Chess Championship Tournament, at least the second place.

Leaving Zhao Ya's house, Jia Zhengming drove back to Fengcheng, and for him the task was completed.

But he didn't know that it was this mentality to complete the task that kept him from discovering more hidden secrets.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the afternoon of April 30.

Zhao Yajun rushed to pick up Zhao Ya again, this time the nine-city chess championship was held in the stadium of Fengcheng New District, and he still had to go to the hotel to check in one day in advance.

The competition lasted for three days, and the four heavenly kings selected by the nine cities, a total of 36 people, played a six-game points round-robin, and finally ranked the top eight to give bonuses, and the first place will be awarded the crown of the first Xi Province Nine Cities Chess King.

As soon as he boarded the bus to Fengcheng, Zhao Guanguan asked a little excitedly: "Xiaoya, are you sure to win the championship this time?" ”

"I'll do my best." Zhao Ya smiled faintly, of course she was sure, but obviously she couldn't say it so absolutely.

"Have you ever dreamed of playing chess lately?"

"Occasionally." Zhao Ya's excuse for dreaming of playing chess must be kept forever, maybe she needs to show super chess strength that day, so she should continue to use this excuse.

"Oh, that's good, I'm waiting for the day when you become a super-notch chess player." Zhao Yajun nodded, and he became more and more confident about his niece.

If before the Rongcheng Celebrity Tournament, he was still full of expectations for Zhao Ya's future, and after the Rongcheng Celebrity Tournament, he had already determined that his niece had a bright future on the road to Go.

And this time the nine-city chess king competition in the Rongcheng Division made Zhao Yajun convinced that his niece would inevitably soar to the sky, and this chess champion crown would be his niece's nine times out of ten.

Just think of an eleven-year-old female chess king, a rising super Go genius, his own niece, who came into contact with Go under his teaching, he seems to be the proudest person in the world.

It's just that this good feeling was quickly broken by Zhao Ya.

"Uncle, I don't want to participate in any Go competitions for the time being after this competition."

"What? Why is that? Zhao Yajun asked in surprise.

"Because I don't think this kind of competition will help me improve, it will make me unhappy." Zhao Ya said softly, but her eyes moved out of the window, "The competition seems to be for the prize money, and I seem to be competing for the prize money." ”

"This ......" Zhao Yajun looked at Zhao Ya's face and fell into thought.

He had actually thought carefully about why he was playing Go.

When he learned chess as a child, he went from a love to a responsibility, and then a pain.

In the end, he gave up Go, and his father's beating and scolding, and his mother's grudges made him hate Go very much.

But when he entered the university and made his free choice, he was exposed to Go again, and the feeling of re-acquaintance made him fall in love with this "Kino Fox" again.

"Uncle, did you say that you play Go just to compete for the first place?"

"I ...... I don't know. Zhao Yajun was a little dazed, he looked back on his journey to learn chess, his parents' expectations, and the teacher's reprimand, which was always more painful than happy.

Is it true that playing Go is to compete for the first place?

Obviously, the existence of Go is not used to prove who has the highest IQ and who is the first with the strongest brain.

However, modern people have developed the competitive game of Go to the extreme, and it seems that it is to compete for the first place.

After a long silence, Zhao Yajun came back to his senses, looked at his niece who closed his eyes and recuperated, he suddenly came to inspiration, and whispered: "Xiaoya, playing Go is not to compete for the first, but to surpass yourself." ”

"Uncle, thank you, I understand." Zhao Ya opened her eyes and showed a sweet smile, "Uncle, can you support me?" I didn't want to pursue a career path in Go. ”

"This, I...... I want you to think it through, but whatever you choose, I'll support you. Zhao Yajun looked at his niece's expectant gaze, gritted his teeth and said.

Although he didn't want Zhao Ya to give up Go in his heart, he could only say what his niece thought at the moment.

In fact, as long as you think about it, you will know that my niece is smart and talented, and she is definitely not only good at Go, although the first grade in the fifth grade does not mean anything, but since she can sit firmly on the throne of the first place, it means that she has extraordinary talent in learning.

So whether it's Go or something else, Zhao Ya can do it well as long as she wants to do it.

"Thank you......" Zhao Ya's thanks came from the bottom of her heart, although she knew very well what her uncle was thinking, but he could say this, he was already very concerned about her feelings.

That night, the two of them settled into the hotel.

At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, the two arrived at the Fengcheng New District Stadium on time.

When she came to the arena, Zhao Ya was quite surprised when she saw thousands of onlookers.

"Xiaoya, this game will be broadcast live in the stadium, and several professional chess players will be invited to comment on the chess score." Zhao Yajun saw Zhao Ya's surprise and explained with a smile: "You guys are playing in the hall, and we are listening to the big market explain the game outside the court. ”

"How can you do that?" Zhao Ya has two lifetimes of experience, of course she knows this situation, and when the finals of major competitions are held, there are big market explanations, where professional chess players analyze the chess game and lead chess fans to appreciate the ideas and demeanor of the masters.

But she was surprised by this kind of amateur competition, and also invited someone to explain the market, which is a rare thing.

"Xiaoya, in fact, I was quite surprised, this time the organizers have spent a lot of effort, as if I heard that the Yicheng official is also involved and is one of the organizers."

"Yicheng?" Zhao Ya's heart moved slightly, this is not good news, although I don't know what the intention of the Yicheng officials who are not in Xi Province to participate in this kind of competition.

But Zhao Ya still kept an eye on it, in case this matter was linked to the sitting photo, she had to be more cautious.

"Xiaoya, don't think so much, just play chess well." Zhao Yajun saw that Zhao Ya's face was a little wrong, and then encouraged: "There are a total of six games of chess, you play them all seriously, don't think about winning or losing, just play at your usual level." ”

"Okay, I'll be serious." Zhao Ya nodded, although she still had doubts in her heart, but thinking that this was just an amateur game, even if Yicheng had the intention to track down the whereabouts of the seated photo, as long as she didn't show too outrageous level, no one would be able to confirm her identity.

In fact, Zhao Ya is really careful, Yicheng's participation in this Go game is indeed influenced by the seat, but not to find the mysterious seat, but to use this kind of competition to let more people understand Go and join the Go world of Yicheng.

At the beginning of the first round, Zhao Ya's opponent was a Liucheng Laoye 5.

Although the opponent played very steadily, with a decent chess path, he always maintained a very small gap with Zhao Ya, but in the end, he made a mistake in the official and lost to Zhao Ya with a disadvantage of two sons.

Because of the influence of Yicheng's existence, Zhao Ya didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
