"Hehe, Xiaoya, it seems that professional chess players can't do it in front of you at all." Zhang Zhijun said.

"There are very few weaknesses and faults in professional chess players, and it is not easy for me to win against them." Ye Xiaoya said that she saw that the white chess fell another 186 moves, and then quickly followed the step, and said: "However, what is strange about this game of chess is that the opponent's chess style is unpredictable, it seems that it is not a person's style, and the front and back moves do not echo very well. ”

"Xiaoya, I can't see a real person on the Internet, maybe this game is discussed with you by a few people." Zhang Zhijun is not surprised, playing chess on the Internet, he has also discussed with others.

"That makes sense." Ye Xiaoya said, and followed another step.

Five minutes later, white conceded defeat with 199 moves overall, and although black was only 12 meshes ahead, it was meaningless for the master to play again.

After finishing the chess game, Zhang Zhijun taunted two sentences on QQ, and then left the Internet café with Ye Xiaoya.

However, when she was going out, Ye Xiaoya met three classmates in the same class, and the moment they saw Ye Xiaoya, they were also stunned.

"Squad leader?" When Zheng Haoran saw Ye Xiaoya coming out of the Internet café, he first thought that he had seen the wrong person, but immediately understood that he was not wrong, and the temperament of the squad leader could not be impersonated.

"You are in the same class as me......" Ye Xiaoya saw these three people and nodded, because she had never paid attention to the classmates in the class, so although these three people were familiar, she couldn't name them.

"Squad leader, have you also entered the Internet café?" The other tall Su Zhigang smiled: "Who are you coming with?" What game to play? ”

"I'm here with my uncle." Ye Xiaoya said, and saw Zhang Zhijun, who had finished unlocking the car, waving to her, "I'll go first." ”

"Squad leader, goodbye." The three of them were so excited that they couldn't imagine that they could meet the squad leader at the door of the Internet café.

In fact, during this time, the school has required students to prohibit entering Internet cafes, and China is also introducing regulations to regulate Internet cafes, but before it is officially implemented, schools can only call on parents to supervise students entering Internet cafes.

For Su Zhigang and Zheng Haoran, who are already obsessed with online games, especially as the leaders of Class 1 of the second year of junior high school, although they have converged a lot, if they don't come to the Internet café to play on weekends, they really can't stand it.

"Li Zhiyu, I'm right, don't be afraid of any school rules, our squad leaders have taken the lead in entering the Internet café, what are you afraid of." Zheng Haoran said to the little man who was still a little worried about the school's punishment at first, this is a student in the third class of the second junior high school next door, who used to be in the same elementary school as the two, and he also likes to play games, but in the past few days, he didn't even dare to come because of worry.

"Well, when you say that, I'm a lot more relieved." Li Zhiyu nodded and smiled: "With your squad leader's tall man on top, we don't have to be afraid." ”

"Yes, our squad leader is a super female student, she is studying in Internet bars, so naturally we will follow along."

"Hurry up, StarCraft, my forkmen can't wait."

"What a fork soldier, that's a fanatic, you will be a basic soldier of the Star Clan, and you are completely a rookie player."

The three of them talked and laughed in the Internet café, chose a location to open the StarCraft interface together, and then picked up the mouse, pressed the keyboard, and devoted themselves to the game world.

Time is in the blink of an eye, in May, a hundred flowers are blooming, and the new Fengcheng Go Celebrity Invitational Tournament is about to kick off.

As a second consecutive champion, Ye Xiaoya naturally became a seeded player to enter the top 16, and the rules of this competition are similar to the second one, which is also divided into two stages.

In the first stage of the competition, Ye Xiaoya naturally did not have to participate, but when the top 16 were judged, the rules of the second stage were completely different.

The first place is Ye Xiaoya with 16 points, the second place is the last runner-up Chen Gang with 15 points, and then the third place is the first place in the first stage with 14 points, and the sixteenth place is 1 point for the sixteenth place.

Then, starting from the sixteenth place, the last order begins to select people to challenge, and then the winner will get all the points of the opponent, and the losing opponent will be eliminated.

This relatively new rule gives a lot of motivation to the players who are lower in the rankings, but it is also very cruel, and if you lose a set, you will be disqualified.

The prize money of this competition is higher, but only the top two will be taken, the first place will be 20,000 yuan, the second place will be 10,000 yuan, and the other players who enter the top 16 can only get 500 yuan encouragement prize.

The day before the official start of the game, Zhang Zhijun, who got the latest rules, came to Ye Xiaoya's house to discuss the situation.

"Xiaoya, the rules of the top 16 of the Maple City Masters this time are a bit strange, what do you think?"

"Uncle Zhang, I don't have any opinion, this is the organizer's business, but no matter what the rules, I will win the championship." Ye Xiaoya is naturally full of confidence.

"It's good to have confidence, the opponents in this competition are similar to the last one, and there are no great people." Zhang Zhijun turned his face to look at Lin Xiaotong as he spoke, and asked, "Auntie, does Xiaoya still have to play another game of chess for thirty minutes this time?" ”

"It must be thirty minutes per set, and it can't be changed." When Lin Xiaotong heard this, he glared at Zhang Zhijun slightly, and said: "Don't think that you take Xiaoya to play a game of chess for more than thirty minutes, I don't know, I just think it's okay to play chess occasionally, but this is a game, so you have to limit the time, and too long thinking will definitely burden your brain." ”

"Yes, aunt, everything is up to you." Zhang Zhijun nodded again and again, he wanted to say that it has been two years, and Ye Xiaoya may not be in a coma again.

And he felt that Ye Xiaoya's level of Go, this level of competition, was not difficult for her at all, but he didn't dare to pack a ticket Ye Xiaoya would not be in a situation because she was too tired from playing chess, so she had to follow Lin Xiaotong's instructions to do it.

Early the next morning, the third Masters officially began.

There were many reporters at the opening ceremony, as the last champion, Ye Xiaoya was also invited to speak on stage, and she said a word.

"I'm here to win the championship, thank you."

Because the rules of this competition are not drawn, but the last opponent is selected to challenge, so the next opponent selection link is quite interesting.

In sixteenth place was a twelve-year-old boy who hesitated for a moment before choosing 15th place to fight.

This choice shows that he doesn't have much confidence in himself, but it also gives him more chances to win.

If he is lucky enough to win this game, then he can continue to pick his opponent first.

When his choice came out, everyone realized that the change in the rules of this competition was indeed more beneficial to the players at the bottom of the rankings.

"I chose it this way, but no matter what kind of choice, the final result is the same." Chen Gang frowned, he also wanted to complain about such a rule, but he realized that if everyone was so cautious, then his luck would be very bad, and he might have to meet Ye Xiaoya in the first round.

However, the 8th ranked Ye 6, did not choose an opponent who was one more point than himself according to the previous people, he chose Ye Xiaoya, who ranked first.
