After the last envelope was taken away by Tan Xiaotian, the tray was already empty, and the little official returned to the three examiners with the empty tray and stood behind it.

"From the left, sign up, sing!" Jiang Dingshan commanded.

With the experience of the morning, everyone knew what to do, so starting from the first one on the left, the participating players reported the numbers in order, first aloud their names, and then the cards marked with numbers in the envelope to the crowd, and at the same time the number was announced, and the pen was written to write down the names and numbers they heard on a piece of paper.

"Chang Zhitian, No. 3", "Tian Yingyu, No. 4", "Dong Yuyan, No. 2", "Tan Xiaotian, No. 2"!

Names are reported one by one, numbers are recorded on paper, and when the last person gives their number, the list of opponents for the second round is also generated.

"Okay, the sky is as people wish, and I really met that kid, Yuyan, remember the promise you made to me just now, take a good job, and after winning him, I will ask the head of the family to give you credit." Dong Quan was secretly happy in his heart, and lowered his voice to tell Dong Yuyan again.

"Don't worry, I can't win him, I will punish myself for not eating for three days!" Dong Yuyan replied confidently - starving for three days is by no means an easy thing, and if he dares to do this to make a guarantee, it means that he has absolute confidence and will definitely be able to do what he says.

"Okay, it's up to you." The disciple of the family, the heaviest promise, the words he said are like nails nailed to the ground, and he will never regret it, seeing Dong Yuyan make such a promise, Dong Quan's heart is more down-to-earth, because in order not to be hungry, Dong Yuyan will also go all out to defeat the opponent.

"Every day, the opponent in this round is very strong, you have to be careful." On the other side, Steward Zheng also reminded Tan Xiaotian in a low voice.

"Well, I know that no matter who I run into, I won't take it lightly. The stronger the opponent, the higher my fighting spirit! Tan Xiaotian's eyes were on the opponent not far away, and his heart was eager to try, which was a good omen, and when this feeling appeared, it was the time to be able to play a good game of chess.

"The draw is over, the players are seated, and the rest are leaving." The list of opponents was determined, Jiang Dingshan gave another order, and immediately an official stepped forward to lead the chess players to take their seats, while the others left the hall and returned to the morning lounge to continue waiting.

Tan Xiaotian followed the little official to the No. 2 game table, the five chess tables were arranged in the shape of plum blossoms in the hall, and the position of the No. 2 table was located in the upper right corner of this plum blossom, the farthest distance from the examiner's seat.

When Tan Xiaotian entered the screen, his opponent Dong Yuyan had just arrived, and the eyes of the two people quickly separated after a brief contact in the air, without stopping for a moment.

The two of them were seated, but still no one cared about anyone.

The next is to guess first, Tan Xiaotian was lucky, got the black chess, Dong Yuyan did not feel dissatisfied with such a result - he is older than the other party, he has been learning chess longer than the other party, and the Dong family's background in the chess world is not inferior to the Zheng family, so it can be inferred that his own strength must be above the other party, in this case, it is a matter of course for him to take white chess, and to win chess with white and then hand, then he can prove that his level is higher than that of the opponent, and it also saves the opponent from making excuses for the difference in what to make after losing the chess.

After the ceremony was completed, the little official stood at the gap in the screen, on the one hand, not to disturb the two of them to prepare for the battle, and on the other hand, he could also block the view of the two of them looking out, so as not to be affected by others, and at the same time, he also indicated to the chief examiner that the ceremony here had been completed and the next stage of steps could be carried out.

Jiang Dingshan observed the situation below in the examiner's seat, and saw that the five officials were standing outside the screen, knowing that the guessing ceremony had been completed, so he once again ordered in a loud voice, "The game starts, and the chess players fall." ”

Hearing the instructions, Tan Xiaotian opened his slightly closed eyes, and after a little concentration, he picked up a chess piece and dropped it on the board - the two sides of the longest game of chess will be directly out of the game, which makes everyone dare not waste time casually, otherwise the chess winner will be eliminated, and he will not be suffocated to death.

Black is the most orthodox opening move.

The upper right corner of the white chess piece immediately hung with a small eye, which is a positive attitude, which shows that Dong Yuyan's desire to fight is very high.

Black occupies the upper left corner of the upper corner - this is a targeted move that foresees that white will take an offensive against the upper right corner, so the head of the corner is taken downward, indirectly reducing the value of the upper side.

The upper right corner of the white chess is a big oblique flying pressure, and the expected hand is the Jiang family's most proud tactics, the more you play, the more you win, and the other chess players will naturally learn from it, so although the study of this move is still based on the Jiang family, other chess players also have their own experience, and from time to time there are novice secret moves.

If you don't have confidence in your own mid-game strength, or don't study much about the big oblique formula, and are worried about falling into the trap, then there are many ways to avoid the battle, such as the right three-way merge or support, four-way spire and three-way pull, etc., these are feasible ways to play, not necessarily bad, but one side seeks to fight and the other side does not dare to fight head-on, and it will inevitably appear a little weaker in terms of momentum.

Tan Xiaotian doesn't believe in that evil, the so-called knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring to go to the tiger mountains, that is the attitude of the strong in the face of difficulties, the so-called great oblique thousand changes, the complexity of which even the people of the Jiang family dare not say that they have studied it thoroughly, and it is really hard to say who fell into whose way in the end.

The top four roads were pressed, and Tan Xiaotian faced it head-on.

Usually the purpose of white chess is to provoke a fierce battle, so star digging is a natural next move, but Dong Yuyan chose to play four ways at this time.

Tan Xiaotian was a little surprised, generally speaking, white chess chooses a large oblique flying pressure with the intention of taking the initiative to challenge, so it is common for black to choose to avoid the battle as the defending side, but it is very rare for the active attacker to suddenly change to avoid the battle.

The chess game has just begun, and the opponent is obviously prepared to come out of the big oblique in the third move, so there should not be any problem of temporary intention to change the plan, so the opponent must have another idea to make such a choice, or maybe it is the latest research results of the Dong family.

Although the other party's method was a bit surprising, Tan Xiaotian's response did not take much time.

Black Five-Way Long - Although there is no way to guess what the opponent's overall idea is for the time being, it is a dignified official move to separate the sons of white after black is grown, and it is a dignified official move to brake quietly and thickly head into the middle of the belly to see how the opponent moves next.
