Chapter 266: A Sword Separates the Worlds

At this time, the audience who watched this scene through the live broadcast were still silent, had not yet recovered, and were still a little dazed.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, after a brief moment of silence, everyone's faces showed incredible excitement! "Win... Win!"

"Yu Shao won eight consecutive games in the second dan!"

"Facing a strong enemy like Ma Jie, Yu Shao won!"

Everyone was in a state of shock and excitement. Ma Jie, Lu Yihong and Zeng Jun were the three people who gave the American Chess Institute the confidence to initiate the chess competition.

Yu Shao has been fighting hard until now. In this game against Ma Jie, he provoked a complicated battle with unreasonable moves like touching the small eye. Giving up pieces to attack in the middle game seemed to be a strong move, but in fact he was brewing a big game. He failed to slay the dragon, but he killed the dragon in the belly!

Although Ma Jie was at a disadvantage, he still showed amazing tenacity. The white pieces were unable to attack for a long time, but the final method of invasion and elimination completely broke the rules and directly made the black pieces' last-ditch effort go to waste!

Yu Shao beat Ma Jie! You know, for most outstanding young chess players, most top chess players' evaluation is that although they are not bad, they lack experience and have a promising future.

Ma Jie and the other two were different. No one commented on them, because they no longer needed to be commented on! In the review room where the Chinese team was, everyone was staring at the TV screen, still not coming back to their senses, as if they were still immersed in the aftertaste of the last move of the white piece, unable to extricate themselves.

"When it comes down here, the black piece will climb up one hand, which seems inevitable."

At this moment, Su Yiming looked at the chessboard, suddenly stretched out his hand, moved a black piece, and said, "But what if the black piece is here?"

After hearing this, everyone finally woke up from their dream and subconsciously looked towards the chessboard.

Seeing where Su Yiming's move landed, everyone was puzzled and looked at the chessboard in disbelief.

Is the town here?

Can you tell there is chess here?

The next moment.

Looking at the strange black piece on the chessboard, everyone suddenly realized something, as if something had grabbed their throats! As time passed, everyone kept frantically deducing the subsequent changes on the board in their minds.

Because Su Yiming played the black piece, they all put themselves in the white piece's perspective when they were playing the game. The more they played the game, the more their faces flushed, even their ears... were completely red! "Play it here. If the white piece sticks, then the black piece will make another move, and the white piece will rob. The black piece will simply start a world-shaking catastrophe with the white piece!"

Qin Lang looked at the black piece on the chessboard, and his eyes became dazed.

"At this moment, the black piece took advantage of the iron wall built by the white piece in the middle of the belly, and was able to burst out with a powerful force in the subsequent fight!"

"If the white piece doesn't stick, then this black piece, which seems to be far away from the battle, can actually separate all the white pieces and bring the black piece back to life!"

"If Heizi wants to come back to life, this is the only way."

"This move is simply——"

Qin Lang raised his head and looked at Su Yiming blankly. At this time, Su Yiming lowered his head to look at the chessboard with a calm expression, as if he was concentrating on thinking about the subsequent changes on the board.

"One sword separates the worlds."

…

…

This night, many people are destined to be too excited to sleep.

The first chess match was originally a match that the American Chess Institute was determined to win. Not only did the United States think so, even Chinese netizens were quite pessimistic about the first chess match.

A few years ago, Zhu Huaian was still young, and Li Congyou, 7th Dan, who is now jokingly called "half-step title" by netizens, was also young.

Even though the two are 18 years old now, if they face the current lineup of the United States, it will probably be a tough battle and the outcome is unpredictable.

It can be said that the US lineup in the first game, even if it is against Japan, North Korea and South Korea, is not without hope of winning!

But what was unexpected was that Yu Shao actually won seven games all the way and forced Ma Jie to play. But even Ma Jie was defeated by Yu Shao. This was too shocking! Tomorrow will be the ninth game, and Yu Shao's opponent will be Lu Yihong! ...

…

the next day.

The ninth chess match is about to begin.

At this time, the attention paid to the chess game across the entire network can only be described as off the charts. Countless people flocked into the live broadcast room early in the morning, waiting nervously and expectantly for the game to begin.

When Yu Shao arrived at the chess talk room, the music notators and referees were already in place, but Yu Shao's opponent today, Lu Yihong, had not arrived yet.

Yu Shao quickly walked to the center of the chess room, pulled out a chair next to the chess table and sat down.

The music notator and the two referees on the side did not say anything, but silently observed Yu Shao, and suddenly felt a little nervous.

After eight long games of hard fighting, although the fatigue on Yu Shao's face became more and more obvious, the intimidating spirit hidden under his calm expression was becoming more and more shocking.

Not long after, a burly young man in a suit appeared at the door of the chat room.

Lu Yihong, we’re here.

Lu Yihong did not walk into the talk room immediately, but stood at the door of the talk room, staring at Yu Shao for a long time, before finally walking into the talk room, coming to the opposite side of Yu Shao, pulling out a chair and sitting down.

The two sat opposite each other in silence.

"What mood is Lu Yihong in when he plays this game of chess?"

Seeing this scene, the music notator and the two referees nearby all had the same thought in their minds, and their mood was a little complicated.

Time passed by minute by minute, and as time went by, the atmosphere in the chat room became a little depressing.

Not long after, a referee looked at his watch, finally let out a breath, gathered his thoughts, stood up, and said, "Five hours for each side, one minute countdown, seven and a half points handicap!"

"In this game, Yu Shao, 2nd dan, will play black, and Lu Yihong, 6th dan, will play white!"

The referee paused, looked at Yu Shao and Lu Yihong respectively, and then said in a deep voice: "Now, the game begins!"

After the two bowed to each other, the game of chess officially began.

Yu Shao looked at the chessboard, quickly picked up the chess piece, and made the first move.

Da! Sixteen columns and four rows, stars! Lu Yihong's expression was solemn, and he immediately picked up the chess piece and placed it on the chessboard!

Bang! Four columns and seventeen rows, small eye!

“It’s falling so fast!”

Seeing this scene, the referee and the music notator next to them were slightly shocked.

In the previous eight games, even the first few moves in the layout phase were usually not made too quickly, often after five or six seconds. But this game was different!

Seeing this, Yu Shao immediately took out the chess piece and placed it gently.

Four columns and four rows, stars!

“Click!”

Seeing this move, Lu Yihong immediately reached into the chess box again, picked up the chess piece, and dropped it quickly! Snap! Seventeen columns and sixteen rows, small eye! "Come!"

After making this move, Lu Yihong raised his head and looked at Yu Shao with a stern expression, his eyes were silent but more powerful than words!

At this time, on the chessboard, the black pieces occupy two star positions, and the white pieces occupy two small positions.

Two consecutive stars against the wrong small eyes! The US side still uses a double small eye layout!

Yu Shao looked at the chessboard, quickly picked up the chess piece and put it down again.

clatter!

Fifteen columns and seventeen rows, Xiao Fei is dead!

"He didn't come up."

Seeing that the black piece did not directly and unreasonably touch the small eye like in yesterday's game, but instead chose the most common small flying move, Lu Yihong couldn't help but frown.

"Are you planning to play chess normally?"

Lu Yihong quickly calmed down and took out the chess piece again.

Da! Three columns and fifteen rows, Xiaofei!

Since the black piece Xiaofei is hanging in the lower right corner, the white piece cannot form a worry-free corner in the lower right corner, so the white piece will turn to the left to form a worry-free corner. One of the two must be achieved.

The characteristic of the Worry-Free Corner is that the corner is solid and the defense is strong. Although current Go theory believes that the Worry-Free Corner is not completely worry-free, it is still one of the options.

Yu Shao looked at the worry-free corner of the white piece in the lower left corner of the chessboard, and quickly picked up another chess piece and slowly let it fall.

Da! The sound of the chess pieces falling echoed in the chess room.

However, the sound of the move, which was so slight, was particularly deafening to the four people in the chess room! On the chessboard, above the white piece's corner, there seemed to be an extra black piece! Four columns and fourteen rows -

Shoulder charge!

"Shoulder charge?!"

Seeing this move, Lu Yihong, who had already reached into the chess box and was about to take out the chess piece, suddenly stopped his hand in the chess box and stared at the chessboard in front of him in a daze.

"Although this is very similar to Yu Shao's second-dan style, but——"

The female scorekeeper and referee standing by, looking at the chessboard not far away, were a little frightened for a moment, holding their breath, and their emotions were fluctuating.

"What kind of weird move is this shoulder charge to Wuyoujiao?!"

If someone else had made this move, they would have jumped up by now, but since it was made by Yu Shao, they were actually not surprised at all.

They didn't even dare to comment on this move.

At least before the end of this game, they... no longer dare to make any comments!

Not only them, but also the audience watching TV or computer at this moment are in the same boat.

Now, after so many games, some of their once confident judgments turned out to be wrong after verification. Dian San San and Yao Dao are the best examples!

But now seeing Yu Shao's shoulder charge, they didn't know whether their judgment was right or wrong. Those ideas that they had originally believed in their hearts had been shaken!

There was silence in the review room where the American team was.

Everybody was staring at the TV screen, and no one made any comment on this shoulder charge, even though it was truly shocking!

Even Ma Dong felt the same. He looked at the TV screen and frowned slightly.

According to chess theory, shoulder charge will cause the chess pieces to be too loose or put them at a disadvantage in local battles. It is only an unconventional method under specific board conditions.

However, Heizi chose to shoulder charge! At this moment, an extremely strange scene happened all over the world.

The number of chess players paying attention to this game is absolutely countless, and among them there must be high-level players or even title holders.

However, everyone was surprisingly quiet when they saw such a vicious move.

It was quiet.

It was so quiet... as if Kuroko had just made his first move at the star position.

This move is unremarkable.

"If Heizi really has a back-up plan, then what is it?"

This is the question on everyone's mind! In the chess room, Lu Yihong looked at the chessboard. Facing this shoulder charge, his expression was serious and he fell into deep thought.

"After I grow up, how will he move? Will he attack my lower right corner first? Will he use this shoulder charge later?"

Finally, Lu Yihong took a deep breath, looked stern, picked up the chess piece again and placed it on the chessboard.

"Let's wait and see what happens and see how he makes his move!"

Da! Four columns and fifteen rows, long! Seeing this, Yu Shao also took out the chess piece and dropped it again.

Da! Six columns and fourteen rows, jump! "He didn't take off his clothes, he just jumped?"

Seeing Yu Shao's move, Lu Yihong couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

It wasn't that this move was beyond his expectations, it was the exact opposite. This move was too easy to think of, and it was almost the follow-up move that everyone would think of after the shoulder charge! But after the black piece jumped away, the white piece could choose to escape, and there would be no other changes here!

In other words, the black piece actually... has no backup plan? But if the black piece has no backup plan, it can be said that the black piece has gained nothing from this exchange. In fact, the black piece's power is too dispersed, and it is very likely to face a fierce attack from the white piece in the future! Not only Lu Yihong, but others also saw Yu Shao shoulder charge and chose the simplest move to jump away, and their faces were full of confusion.

"After the shoulder charge, the next move was unexpectedly ordinary?"

"This, I originally thought that after the shoulder charge here, the leader would be out of the game, and that Heizi would have some far-sighted and clever moves to use later."

"If we just jump away, the exchange of black pieces here is not particularly bad, but it doesn't seem to be a good deal, right?"

At this time, barrages of comments kept flying through the live broadcast room.

"Don't be careless!"

Lu Yihong did not relax at all. After calmly thinking about the situation, he picked up the chess piece again and placed it on the chessboard.

Soon, Yu Shao also picked up the chess piece and dropped it again.

Lu Yihong stared at the chessboard intently. Looking at the falling black piece, the eight games in the chess competition and the four games in the Yingjiao Cup seemed to appear in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern.

His expression became more and more solemn.

"He is not an ordinary opponent. Although it is hard to believe, he is indeed stronger than expected."

With the sound of chess pieces clicking, Lu Yihong picked up another chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.

“Therefore, we must not be careless!”

"I have to win this game no matter what. There is no room for losing!"

Da! With a crisp sound, the black piece fell again.

Lu Yihong reached into the chess box again, his eyes fixed on the chessboard, and he deduced the various changes in the chess game in his mind.

"I have to wait and see how he makes his move. I can't rush into a fight with him, nor can I engage him in close combat right away. I have to lurk in the jungle like a lion and wait patiently!"

"Once I get the chance, I'll pounce on him and bite his throat tightly!"

"We can't give Heizi any chance to react!"

"It must be done with lightning speed!"

Lu Yihong picked up the chess piece and placed it as fast as the wind!
