Wang Xiyang is an extremely ordinary small-town teenager.

He was born in an ordinary working family, and his parents taught him from an early age that he must study hard, otherwise he will have to do high-intensity physical work every day like them in the future.

Wang Xiyang is also sensible, from childhood to adulthood, he has studied harder than his peers, and his grades have been stable within the top 20 in the whole grade.

Although he did not approve of his parents' words, he always felt in his heart that the work of ordinary workers was not a shame, and could even be called great.

But he also understands that his parents are for their own good, and they raised themselves with hard work, in order to make him suffer less.

Chess is not his interest, and learning chess is just for the sake of adding points to the high school entrance examination. Chess is a relatively inexpensive specialty, compared to musical instruments, vocal music, and painting, he only needs a small chessboard and about 30 chess pieces.

In fact, he was more inclined to Go at first, after all, children of his age have watched anime, film and television dramas about chess since he was a child, and most of them are about Go.

But when he heard the sky-high tuition fees for learning Go, and the remarks that the competition in Go was more than a notch higher than that of Xiangqi, he finally backed down.

He also knew that as long as he said that he wanted to learn Go, his parents would be willing to provide him with learning.

But he is too sensible, and this sensibility also makes him deeply experience that the pressure of chess competition is not lower than that of Go.

For a long time, Wang Xiyang was at the bottom of the interest class.

For the first time, he felt that talent was so important, and for the first time, he doubted his own abilities.

But he also believes that hard work makes up for mistakes, and after each game, he spends a lot of time reviewing it.

This good habit also allowed him to catch up with those geniuses who were regarded as unattainable in his eyes step by step.

As he grew older, he had reached a bottleneck, and slowly, the geniuses he had thrown away with his hard work surpassed him with their proud talents.

He watched the game fail after game, and he began to complain, complaining about his lack of compromise, and also complaining about why he was so stupid.

But he still didn't give up, in order to break through his own bottleneck, he went crazy and slipped into the streets and alleys after school every day, practicing the game with the old men in the park.

Perhaps it was because God had mercy on him, and in this experience of self-torture, he met his master, Yang Ghost Hand.

After Yang Guishou retired, he also disappeared from the chess world, not only did he not accept apprentices, but also did not engage in any chess-related work. His retirement life is just a day in the park, watching others play chess.

He didn't look down on Wang Xiyang originally, because he had watched him play chess for so long, and he didn't see any talent worthy of praise; The second is to look at his dress, his family should not be wealthy, although learning chess does not cost much, but if you want to quickly improve your chess ability, you must go south and north to learn from masters from all walks of life. No matter how bad it is, you have to spend money to buy a computer and play against the masters of the Internet or artificial intelligence.

And playing against all kinds of old men in the park like him is not only difficult to learn, but also easy to decline because the opponent is too weak.

But in the subsequent contact, Yang Ghost Hand gradually changed his impression of this young man.

Because no matter whether he wins or loses, he will review the whole game after the game to study how to do better.

He's also improving, but because it's progressing too slowly, he doesn't realize that he's been slowly improving.

Yang Ghost also moved his heart of love, he called Wang Xiyang and played a game with him.

Yang Ghost Player, who has not played chess for many years, although his chess strength is not as good as back then, but with experience, he finally shaved Wang Xiyang's "bald head".

This humiliating ending did not make Wang Xiyang feel any discomfort, he habitually reviewed it, this serious and persistent appearance, just like now, is moving.

Wang Xiyang was reviewing the game between Yu Fei and Yang Zheng at this time.

He understands that with his current strength, he is not an opponent of the two at all.

But as long as there is one percent hope, he still wants to try.

The review was slow, but he benefited a lot.

Don't look at him as just an ordinary small-town boy of seventeen or eighteen, he also has something worthy of appreciation, that is, through these years of tedious review, he has cultivated an eye that many professional chess players do not have.

He could see at a glance that Fei Fei's routine was not only to confuse his opponent with horses at the beginning, but also that his three pawns looked like failures in the back game. However, in addition to confusing the opponent, these three soldiers in the early stage also greatly restricted the position of the opposing pawn.

In addition to losing the mid-game strategy and being seen through by his opponents, the three pawns limited his local operations, and there was another fatal reason, that is, until the end, he did not maximize the role of the cannon.

Obviously, his cannon position is so good, but in the end, he didn't focus on the cannon.

Of course, this kind of misjudgment is also related to the large fluctuations in his psychology after he saw Yang Zheng see through the routine he was proud of. But as a chess player who wants to embark on a professional path, this is another low-level mistake.

Wang Xiyang, who has seen through the Achilles heel of the fragility in Xiao Fei's heart, also has enough time to study his next opponent Yang Zheng.

In his first review, he couldn't help but be shocked by Yang Zheng's whimsical layout ideas.

After all, after seeing the opposite routine, Yang Zheng actually boldly catered to the opponent's well-designed "trap" on the one hand, and at the same time guarded against the opponent's lore routine.

With this psychological quality, he can definitely show it after seeing a lot of big scenes.

In the face of Yang Zheng, he must not have a fluke mentality.

In his second review, he seemed to have grasped a small weakness of Yang Zheng, that is, he always thought too much about the beginning.

He also subconsciously felt that if he could take advantage of this small weakness, maybe there would be hope of a turnaround.

But he quickly rejected the idea, because that's what Xiao Fei thought and did before.

However, he also died in the end of a strange opening that he felt could target his opponent.

And himself, whether it is strength or layout ability, is not as good as Xiao Fei, if he does this, it will undoubtedly be a dead end.

He soon began a third review.

But this review, except to exacerbate his disappointment, achieved nothing.

This also made this stubborn teenager have the idea of giving up for the first time.

But he didn't give up, but reviewed the chess on the table again and again.

If Master was around, what kind of advice would he give him?

Failure after failure reminded this young man of the day he met his master.

The first-level chess player who is looked down upon by many people, and the Yang ghost who is nicknamed the master goalkeeper by many people and cannot cross the threshold of chess master in his life.

After he accepted himself as an apprentice, he did not teach himself how to play chess for the first time, but told himself the unforgettable seven big characters.

That is, the right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life.
