The quarterfinals of the 406 Evening Cup

Ye Xiaoya stayed in the hotel and began to move her body in her room.

Ever since her memories of her past life awakened, she has been recuperating and exercising every day, and these days her body has become as flexible as a professional dancer.

Of course, one is that she is still young and has good body bones to train, and the other is that she has strong perseverance and concentration, and has strong control over the body muscles, so it will take a few months to achieve the effect of years of training.

Of course, at this level, Ye Xiaoya is still not satisfied, she obviously has no superpowers in this life, but she also has to have a certain ability to defend herself and protect herself.

Although she is confident that she will not be deceived, she must be able to protect herself in the face of violence by certain malicious actors.

After a day of waiting, the Evening Cup officially started.

Each person had 90 minutes of time, and Ye Xiaoya didn't use enough 10 minutes in the first two rounds to solve the opponent.

The extraordinary chess ability has made many people look sideways, and some chess players who have heard of her are even more critical of her.

"That is Ye Xiaoya, the Maple City Masters Tournament has won three consecutive championships, and has never played a professional game, and it is said that the chess power is already stronger than that of ordinary professional chess players."

"No wonder she is so good, she doesn't think much about chess, it seems that she has a good hope of becoming the first in this evening newspaper cup."

"You don't know, this Ye Xiaoya played chess with some professional chess players at the beginning, and she didn't think much about it, she can still win, she must be the champion this time, there is no other possibility."

"No, she's really that good?"

"There is no suspense about the championship of the Evening News Cup this time, I am looking forward to the exhibition match in the future, I don't know if Ye Xiaoya can win or not when she competes with professional masters."

In the midst of many discussions, Ye Xiaoya won four consecutive victories and entered the quarterfinals of the Evening News Cup.

The top eight of this Evening News Cup, none of them are soft persimmons, they are all top figures in the amateur chess world in China.

Needless to say, Ye Xiaoya's status as No.1 in Fengcheng has naturally been recited by the amateur world for a long time, but she has been stirring up trouble in Fengcheng, and many chess players do not recognize her status in the Chinese chess world.

This time, she finally walked out of Fengcheng and participated in the national-level Evening News Cup competition, which can be regarded as the prelude to her domination of the amateur chess scene in China.

Ye Xiaoya's opponent in the fifth round of the quarterfinals is none other than Hu Shuowen, an amateur 7th Duan who has won the championship three times in the Wanbao Cup.

This Hu Shuowen is extremely calculating, and he is a quasi-professional chess player who has trained with professional chess players, but for some reasons he has not entered the professional chess player circle.

However, he is also very popular in the amateur chess world, especially in the evening cup competitions, where he is a frequent participant in the championship and runner-up.

Therefore, when he and Ye Xiaoya were together in the quarterfinals, they immediately attracted a lot of attention and speculation.

"Ye Xiaoya has met the first strong opponent, whoever wins this game of chess will probably be the champion of this evening newspaper cup."

"Although I think Ye Xiaoya's chess strength is better than Hu Shuowen's, the so-called Jiang is still old and spicy, and Ye Xiaoya's lack of experience in the competition may not be able to win against Lao Hu."

"Yes, the game is different from the usual chess, and the victory or defeat is not more about the level, but about the psychological quality and state."

"I think Ye Xiaoya can win, although she doesn't participate in many games, but I know that when Fengcheng won three consecutive championships, she didn't do her best in every game of chess, and she never lost a game of chess." A chess player from Maple City said.

At this moment, Hu Shuowen was seriously looking at the girl opposite.

With a delicate face, delicate skin, long black and beautiful hair, bright eyes and bright teeth, a smile with a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth, and a pleasant voice, he said, "Hello Mr. Hu." ”

"Ye Xiaoya, I've heard of you a long time ago, and today I can finally meet the real person." Hu Shuowen nodded, lifted his gold-wire glasses, and grabbed a handful of white pieces from the chess box.

"Single." Ye Xiaoya picked up a sunspot and put it on the chessboard.

"You guessed it, what did you choose?" As Hu Shuowen spoke, he put the white chess pieces into the chess box.

"I'll use black." Ye Xiaoya patted the black chess box.

"Okay, let's get started." Hu Shuowen pressed the clock to let the time of black start to count.

"Please advise." Ye Xiaoya bowed slightly, and then put the chess pieces in the upper right corner of the star.

For her, this peak master of the amateur chess world is not difficult to deal with, but she still has to respect it.

In her previous lives, she played chess with this Hu Shuowen, and knew that his chess path was stable, but he was flexible, and his changeable style, with his extremely strong arithmetic, even if it was a professional chess player, it was quite a headache, and he couldn't take advantage of it at all.

However, he has one of the biggest flaws, that is, the game time control is poor, the so-called poor is compared with the real masters, Hu Shuowen sometimes allocates time very unreasonably, which causes him to be tight in the second half of the game, and often makes mistakes that should not be made because of lack of time.

Of course, what can make him run out of time must be a chess player who is equal to him, or a little higher than him, and when facing a weaker player, he will naturally not be forced to the last moment.

The two played more than a dozen moves, and Ye Xiaoya saw that Hu Shuowen intended to speed up the move, and understood that he was worried that the later calculations would make the time tight, so the layout went faster to save time.

But in this way, his layout has taken a slow hand, and the 12th step is relatively slow, and from a professional point of view, this walk will cause the least loss of sight.

Of course, in the amateur chess world, such a blind-eyed move is sometimes called steady, to prevent accidents in the future.

But in Ye Xiaoya's eyes, such a move is not only slow down and damage the eyes, but also will leave hidden dangers for future chess.

The same move, in the eyes of people of different levels, naturally has different cognitions.

In fact, many of the accepted formulas in history have been eliminated after new changes, but many years later, newer changes have given this formula a new lease of life.

Such things are not uncommon in the history of Go, and it can be said that many times the accepted conclusions are not necessarily correct, and as the level of Go improves, the vision and thinking will change.

Hu Shuowen didn't think there was a problem with his moves, but when he played more than 40 moves, he felt that the situation was not good.

However, he didn't think it was strange, he had long known that Ye Xiaoya's chess skills were very good, and the layout was also his weakness, and it was normal for the situation to be unfavorable.

But when he walked to 67 steps, Hu Shuowen had a very bad feeling.

His chess has been limited by the opponent's development, no matter how he moves, it seems to fall into the opponent's rhythm, and although he tries to avoid long exams in terms of time, it still takes him four or five times more time than Ye Xiaoya.

Ye Xiaoya only took less than ten minutes, and he had already spent nearly forty minutes.

Obviously, Hu Shuowen couldn't stand being suppressed by the other party like this, and at the 68th step, he directly threw himself into the opponent's air and began to move.

It's just that he didn't expect that this 68th move had already been expected by Ye Xiaoya, and his move was simply self-defeating.

If he can endure a little longer, and then look for a better opportunity to fight, maybe he can ensure that the situation is not too backward to finish this game, but now these 68 moves are his defeat.
