But this is her only chance to change her fate, and her parents will not allow her to wait another year.
It doesn't work this time, she probably can only marry a merchant.
She was unwilling to give up and could only place her last hope on breaking the endgame.
But the moment the endgame was revealed, she knew she had no hope.
She couldn't figure it out at all, but at this moment, she heard a woman's chuckle coming from the side.
She murmured softly, "How dare you set up such a simple chess game?"
After saying that, the woman left, but a piece of paper fell off her body.
She picked it up as if possessed, and when she opened it, she was shaking with excitement.
It clearly stated the method to solve the endgame.
She looked around but didn't see the woman anymore, thinking she must have left.
She quickly crumpled up the paper, hid it, and took a deep breath. She knew her chance had finally come.
She walked onto the stage with determination, enjoying everyone's praise.
"No, that's impossible. How could she possibly figure it out?"
Ruan Hezhu on the second floor had a pale face and was full of disbelief.
She is the only one who can resolve this unfinished chess game.
"Just now I saw that woman's chess skills were average. Could it be that she has also seen this endgame like you?"
Song Yu frowned. With that woman's chess skills, it would be difficult for her to solve the problem herself.
"She couldn't have seen it."
Ruan Hezhu shook her head. She had seen it in modern times. How could this woman have seen it before, unless...
Suddenly Ruan Hezhu's expression became terrified. Could it be that this woman also came from the past?
She is not the only time traveler, nor is she the lucky one favored by heaven.
Ruan Hezhu fell to the ground as if he had suffered a huge blow.
"It's just a chess game. If you don't win, forget it. You don't have to be like this."
Although Song Yu was somewhat unhappy, this competition was not their only way out.
At worst, we can find other ways. Although it may be a bit risky, it will not lead to the point of being left with no other options.
Song Yu looked down upon Ruan Hezhu's defeated and lacking confidence.
What he liked was her confidence, boldness and uniqueness.
If you are defeated by such a small matter, then you are not worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with him.
Ruan Hezhu shook her head. What she cared about was not a competition, but the identity of the woman.
But she couldn't tell this to Song Yu, or anyone else. Her eyes were fixed on the woman on the stage.
She must find out whether she is a time traveler or not.
Jiang Qingwan was also confused.
[What's going on? Where did this woman come from? How can she solve it? ]
Jiang Qingluo tried hard to suppress the smile on her lips, and this was naturally her credit.
Just now, she learned from Jiang Qingwan's thoughts how to solve the endgame, so she quickly drew it down.
It was clear at a glance what the masked woman's purpose was in participating in the chess game.
How could she not seize this opportunity that was presented to her?
Moreover, this woman was the first to start the game, and everyone knew how good her chess skills were. By solving the endgame, she could also let everyone see the loopholes in the game.
Sure enough, everyone admired the masked woman for being able to perform such a skillful move.
However, there were many people present who were better at chess than her, so many people raised objections, believing that her victory was just a coincidence.
This is so unfair.
Facing the controversy among the crowd, Jiang Chuyuan asked.
"Girl, how did you come up with this?"
"I..." Miss Wan lowered her eyes, trying to hide her guilty conscience. "It just suddenly occurred to me. I tried many methods, but none of them worked. I accidentally saw this, and then I figured out a way to break it."
Miss Wan hesitated and obviously could not convince anyone.
Seeing that no one acknowledged her as the leader, her eyes turned red with anxiety.
"Don't they say that as long as you solve the endgame, you win? There's no rule on how to solve it. The championship is mine. Is Donglin Chess Academy trying to go back on their word, or was the championship already decided?"
"Miss, the Donglin Chess Academy's competition was held in full view of the public. There was no favoritism or cheating at all."
Jiang Chuyuan explained, "The young lady won the final victory, there is no doubt about that. However, we admire her skill very much, so we want to ask you for advice."
"I…"
Miss Wan felt very guilty. Her chess skills were not as good as many people present, and she couldn't even make up a lie.
"I'm tired and don't want to explain today."
"What? Did you play this chess game?"
"I think she just got lucky."
"How can such a person be worthy of being a nominal teacher at the Donglin Chess Academy?"
When others saw her like this, they shouted that it was unfair.
Jiang Chuyuan glanced upstairs, and after the other party nodded, he shouted.
"Everyone, I know you all love chess and won't tolerate any flaws in the game."
"This matter is due to our Donglin Chess Academy's inconsiderateness. There are indeed problems with the competition rules. Next time, we will definitely improve them and give you a satisfactory answer."
"So what should we do this time?"
Everyone was really unwilling to give the title of "Mr." to Miss Wan, whose chess skills were mediocre.
In her previous life, no one knew how good Ruan Hezhu was at chess. After seeing her solve the endgame, they naturally assumed that she was a great chess player.
Therefore, no one raised any questions.
This time, everyone watched their defeated opponent win the final victory with their own eyes, so naturally they were unwilling to do so.
Jiang Chuyuan announced after discussing with several other examiners.
"There are two nominal masters this year, Miss Wan and Mr. Tang, and my master will also accept Mr. Tang as his disciple."
Tang Yi was delighted, as he didn't expect to have an unexpected gain.
Miss Wan also breathed a sigh of relief. In short, for her, it was enough to be a nominal teacher. As for becoming his apprentice, she had never thought about it.
The others no longer had any objections to this; all they wanted was fairness.
Tang Yi won over everyone, and it was only natural that he was awarded the title of Mr.
[This Miss Wan doesn't seem to be able to solve this puzzle. Could she also be a time traveler?]
Jiang Qingwan was a little confused. [That shouldn't be the case. There's no such character as her in the book. She must be an insignificant person.]
"This Miss Wan is just an ordinary merchant girl. She participated in the competition to find a husband. I guess she must have seen this endgame before, which is why she solved it."
Jiang Qingluo muttered to himself, also explaining to Jiang Qingwan that this Miss Wan had no special identity at all.
Jiang Qingwan no longer worried about it. After all, no matter what Miss Wan's identity was, it had nothing to do with him.
The one who should be worried is the one next door.
At this moment, Ruan Hezhu had recovered from her shock. She used the excuse of being a little tired to separate from Song Yu.
He turned around and hid in a small alley with his men, waiting for someone to come.
