Chapter 154 Su Yiming: Now, I am the one who comes

In his previous life, he often relied on himself to be invincible and his enemies to be victorious. In a game of chess, even if there was only a one percent chance of being reversed, he would give up that way of playing and instead wait and see what would happen, making plans before taking action.

This method of winning without fighting made him almost unshakable, and helped him win many chess games, but it also caused him to miss many good opportunities.

Because, in some chess games, you just have to dare to fight and decide the outcome by strength in order to win.

This is also the main reason why in his previous life, after his peak period, he was surpassed by latecomers and his strength gradually declined to only be ranked in the top five.

Even if AI is born in the past and later, and there is AI to review the game, we can play against AI, and use AI for training, but it will not help with this point, because this is a matter of choice.

Even if the AI ​​recommends a strong attack as the best move after reviewing the game, some changes are too complex and too difficult to control. If you cannot be precise at every step, the situation may be reversed or even get worse.

Therefore, even if he knows the standard answer, he usually won't choose an overly radical move. No one thinks that his subsequent moves will be exactly the same as the AI's.

Because of this, even when practicing against AI in his previous life, he would not deliberately pursue training his mid-game attacking ability, but would train himself to control the game, strike back after being attacked, and constantly magnify his strengths.

While Yu Shao was thinking, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.

Yu Shao collected his thoughts, looked down at his phone, and found that it was a WeChat message from Wu Zhixuan.

【Wu Zhixuan: I will be the scorewriter for this year's Xinhuo Battle. Are you surprised? Are you surprised?】

"Music notator?"

Yu Shao was a little surprised when he saw the message sent by Wu Zhixuan.

As the name suggests, a scorekeeper is responsible for recording every move of both players in the game. After becoming a professional chess player, there will usually be scorekeepers in major competitions who are specifically responsible for recording chess scores.

Generally, music score recorders would be amateur female chess players with good looks, or female chess players of low ranks, so Yu Shao didn't find it strange that Wu Zhixuan became a music score recorder.

However, since the Xinhuo Battle was a show match, there were actually scorekeepers recording the chess scores, which was somewhat beyond Yu Shao's expectations.

But after thinking about it, Yu Shao felt relieved. After all, the Xinhuo Battle is the first battle for all professional chess players.

Yu Shao immediately typed a message back: "Okay, then you'll know why I was able to get promoted to the tier one with a perfect record."

A few days ago, the day after the results of the ranking tournament came out, Wu Zhixuan sent a series of messages, asking him how he won all the games and expressing her admiration for him.

Soon, Wu Zhixuan also replied with a message: "Well, I'll wait and see. Come on, come on, come on!"

…………

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Su Yiming was still staring at the computer screen, watching the chess game. The black and white chess pieces were reflected in his eyes.

After a long time, Su Yiming slowly exhaled.

"Lost, six and a half points."

Although he still lost the game, a smile appeared on Su Yiming's face at this moment.

"I still lost..."

He couldn't help but recall the countless chess games he had won more than a hundred years ago.

More than a hundred years ago, technology was not as advanced as it is today. There were no computers or airplanes at that time. If people wanted to play a game of chess, they had to travel long distances and cross thousands of mountains and rivers to play a game.

But by the time he was 23 years old, he had already become famous all over the world, and almost every day there were chess players coming from far and wide to challenge him, so he never had to worry about not having any chess games to play.

However, among so many chess games, there was not a single one that he lost.

Even so, he could clearly feel that in these ten years of almost uninterrupted competition, he was much stronger at the age of thirty-three than he was at the age of twenty-three.

During the past ten years, although I have been winning, my chess skills are still improving. Although it is very slow, my chess skills are still improving.

However, when he was 33 years old, he was shocked to find that his chess skills had not improved any more and had completely reached a bottleneck. No matter how many games he played, his chess skills could not improve at all.

After discovering this, he fell seriously ill and was bedridden until his death.

When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that he had come to the future more than 150 years ago and had become a young man named Su Yiming.

He also didn't know whether he had solved the mystery in the womb or whether his thoughts were just lingering and attached to the boy named Su Yiming.

"I often wonder why I, who should have died long ago, would wake up again one hundred and fifty years later under the name Su Yiming."

“What is the meaning of my coming here after more than a hundred years?”

Su Yiming stared at the computer screen, his eyes filled with countless complex emotions, including loneliness, emotion, and... joy.

"Now, I finally know the answer."

"It is to let me see a higher realm of Go, to let me know that I can continue to move forward, and to let me know... there are people who are above me."

"Thank you for letting me see these games."

"Even if I lose, I am extremely grateful..."

"It is because I lost that I know there is still a way forward."

At this moment, Su Yiming suddenly recalled the conversation between himself and Yu Shao at the dinner table on the last day of the qualifying tournament.

At that time, he said that he had a dream in which he kept winning chess games. After waking up, he found that playing chess had become easy.

Yu Shao’s answer was that he kept losing chess games in his dream, so after waking up, he found that playing chess had become easier.

Although Su Yiming did not take Yu Shao's words seriously, he felt that Yu Shao's answer was unexpectedly good.

"It is precisely because we keep losing that we can see the way forward..."

“If you keep winning, you will eventually stop moving forward.”

Su Yiming looked at the computer screen, took a deep breath, and said to himself: "Now, I am the one who comes."

…………

The next few days were spent waiting for the salary war to begin. Yu Shao rested at home for a week and finally returned to school on Monday.

"You still remember to come back?"

Seeing Yu Shao return to school after a long absence, Zhou De shouted, "The great professional chess player Yu Shao has returned to his loyal Jiangling No. 1 Middle School!"

"Shut up."

Yu Shao glared at Zhou De fiercely.

"Yu Shao, there is already a pathetically thick barrier between us!"

The boy at the table in front of me turned his head, looking betrayed, and said, "Seeing people talking about you online, I feel worse than death!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Where's the money? The bet of a hundred dollars. Have you forgotten it?"

Zhou De stretched out his hand and asked the boy at the front table for the bet. They had made a bet last year on whether Yu Shao could become a professional chess player. Now Zhou De won.

"Depend on!"

The guy in the front seat cursed and said, "Wait until next week. I don't have any money this week."

The other students also looked at Yu Shao with complicated eyes, some shocked, some envious, some worshipful...

Zhang Wenbo, who usually dragged Yu Shao to play games, saw Yu Shao finally returned to school. He wanted to go up to Yu Shao and say a few words, but he didn't open his mouth several times.

He looked at Yu Shao, who took out a book from his schoolbag and flipped through it casually, with a somewhat confused expression. He felt that this classmate, who he had been with day and night just a year ago, was now extremely strange... and distant.

Cheng Mengjie, who was sitting in the front row, bit her lower lip tightly, lowered her head and continued to write homework, never looking up at Yu Shao.

The slightly plump girl sitting next to her was also tactful and didn't talk to Cheng Mengjie about anything about Yu Shao.

Anyway...it's different.

Yu Shao could also clearly sense that this time when they returned to school, everyone had more or less... really become somewhat distant from him, and the thick barrier was not just a joke.

Even if he stayed in school more often in the future, the situation probably wouldn't get better, because they were no longer people from the same world.

Other students will prepare for college entrance exams in the future, and after graduating from college, they will have to work hard to make a living. But he has already entered the world of professional chess players and does not have to worry about college as he has been admitted.

What's more, after becoming a professional chess player, there will be many competitions, and the time he spends in school is destined to become less and less, and his high school life is getting farther and farther away.

Only Zhou De, this idiot, seemed to be unaffected.

Not long after, the class bell rang.

This class was a math class. When Li Kang walked into the classroom with a thermos cup, the classroom suddenly became quiet.

Li Kang looked around the classroom and his gaze finally stopped on Yu Shao, his expression somewhat complicated.

After a long time, Li Kang finally withdrew his gaze from Yu Shao, cleared his throat, and said, "Class!"

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the day's classes finally ended.

"Old Yu, do you want to go to the activity room?"

As soon as the physics teacher of the last class left, Zhou De raised his eyebrows and said to Yu Shao: "I'll show you that I am a completely different person now."

"Why is it different now?"

Yu Shao nodded and asked with a smile, "Did you win against Zhong Yufei?"

"Mr. Zhong doesn't go to the activity room to practice Go anymore. The high school Go league has ended, and he is now preparing for the college entrance exam."

Zhou De shook his head and said, "Teacher Chen has picked another junior in the first year of high school to prepare for next year's high school Go league. Next year, I will be the main player of the high school Go league!"

"you?"

Hearing this, Yu Shao couldn't help but gasp: "It seems that there is really no one left in Jiangling No. 1 Middle School!"

"I'm not that bad now, right? In this year's Go high school league, we made it to the second round at least."

Seeing Yu Shao's reaction, Zhou De immediately flew into a rage and said, "I'm going to split the first set with Lao Zhong now. He can beat me in six out of ten games. Let's go to the activity room and play another game. I'll show you how powerful I, Jiang Ling Shen Yi, am!"

"Okay, let's go."

Yu Shao smiled and didn't refuse. He nodded, packed his schoolbag, and quickly went to the activity room with Zhou De.

When Yu Shao and Zhou De arrived at the activity room and opened the door, they were both stunned.

In the activity room, Xu Zijin, wearing a school uniform and with an elegant temperament, was sitting in front of a chess table and playing chess quietly.

Seeing Yu Shao and Zhou De coming to the activity room, Xu Zijin didn't show any surprise on his face. He slowly stood up, looked at Yu Shao, and asked, "Next game?"
