Chapter 27: This World
"I'll save you first."
Hearing Zhou De's words, Yu Shao glanced at Zhou De and whispered, "I don't know whether they fell into the river, but you must have lost your mind."
"Depend on!"
Zhou De raised his middle finger to Yu Shao.
Not long after, a group of boys finally sat down in Class 7 at the slowest speed, and then began to chat loudly intentionally or unintentionally, hoping to attract the attention of Wu Zhixuan in the front row.
Spring is here, and it's time to court.
But for high school boys, as long as they see a beautiful girl, all year round is the season for courtship. They all want to spread their tails like a peacock in an attempt to attract the attention of the opposite sex.
"Why is her back so beautiful?"
Zhou De looked at Wu Zhixuan's back in the front row and laughed like a pervert.
Yu Shao looked at Zhou De with disdain and reminded him, "Wipe your saliva."
"Good brother, I have decided, I want to be a professional chess player."
Zhou De wiped the saliva from his mouth and made a vow to Yu Shao: "Jiang Ling Shen Yi, reconnect!"
Yu Shao wanted to laugh.
He felt that the only way Zhou De could become a professional chess player was to swing the chessboard and smash his opponent to death, and then Zhou De would truly be unbeatable.
After all, as a sports student specially recruited into Jiangling No. 1 Middle School, Zhou De still has some strength.
Soon, students from other classes also came to the multimedia classroom one after another.
Just like the boys in Class 7, the boys from other classes were also stunned when they saw Wu Zhixuan sitting in the front row, and then they all slowed down their pace.
At this moment, Xu Zijin also walked into the multimedia classroom.
Xu Zijin still had her hair tied in a low ponytail today and wore her school uniform. She looked youthful, beautiful, exquisite and a little dazzling.
For a moment, all the male creatures in the multimedia classroom began to look back and forth between Wu Zhixuan and Xu Zijin, as if they were struggling over who to look at!
Ah, I can't choose, I can't choose at all! Why do I only have two eyes!
Even Yu Shao seriously judged the appearance of the two.
Finally, Yu Shao came to the conclusion that Xu Zijin's facial features were still more delicate, but Wu Zhixuan's smile was too unfair.
Even he, an old man whose mental age was almost thirty years old, almost couldn't bear it when he saw Wu Zhixuan's smiling face when she greeted him just now.
Xu Zijin is too cold, and always gives people a sense of alienation as if he is keeping people at a distance.
Well, more importantly...
Xu Zijin is B, and Wu Zhixuan is D.
Therefore, based on comprehensive evaluation, it is difficult to tell which is better.
Soon, the entire multimedia classroom was packed with people, and all the students were present.
When the bell rang, it was time for the principal's speech, which everyone hated the most.
"Inherit the Go culture and promote the Go spirit..."
The bald principal stood on the stage, holding the speech manuscript and spoke eloquently for a full ten minutes before finally starting to get to the point.
"Next, please welcome our school's outstanding graduate, now a famous professional chess player, Wu Shuheng, 3rd dan!"
The entire multimedia classroom suddenly erupted in applause. It was unclear whether it was to welcome Wu Shuheng or to express their joy that the principal had finally finished his speech.
Immediately afterwards, a young man in his early twenties with neat short hair walked onto the stage, took the microphone from the principal, and gave a brief self-introduction to the teachers and students below the stage.
"Hello everyone, my name is Wu Shuheng, and I am now a professional Go player. I am honored to be invited to my alma mater to give this Go promotion lecture."
"Go is a sport with an extremely long history, which dates back thousands of years..."
Wu Shuheng stood on the stage and talked freely, starting from the origin of Go and then talking about the development of Go today.
"Damn it, I want to sit in the front row."
Offstage, Zhou De whispered to Yu Shao beside him, "I can't hear you clearly sitting here."
"Are you going there for the lecture?"
Yu Shao glanced at Zhou De and said, "I'm embarrassed to expose you."
"Why? I'm a sports student, and Go is also a sport. I was born to play Go!" Zhou De retorted, "Why can't I go to the first row to listen to the lecture?"
"Go is a game of the brain. Do you have a brain?"
Yu Shao cruelly exposed the loopholes in Zhou De's language.
"You want to die!" Zhou De was furious.
Yu Shao was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou De and listened very seriously to Wu Shuheng talking about the development of Go in this world.
He really didn't know much about the development of Go in this world. If it weren't for Zhou De, he wouldn't have known Shen Yi at all, let alone that the handicap system in this world was born because of Shen Yi.
Through Wu Shuheng's speech, Yu Shao quickly gained a general understanding of the development of Go in the world.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This world once had a seat system.
The so-called seat system means that before the game, the black and white sides each place their chess pieces on the four star positions on the chessboard, and then the game begins.
However, the seat system was abolished very early, and for quite a long time, people played Go without the rule of handing over points.
During this period, numerous famous players emerged, created countless Go patterns, and played many famous games that have been passed down to this day.
Then, more than a hundred years ago, Shen Yi appeared and the point-handling system was introduced. The rule of seven and a half points handicap has been used to this day.
Although this world does not have the chess players that Yu Shao was familiar with in his previous life, most of the Go patterns have been discovered by the chess players in this world.
For example, the Great Avalanche Pattern, the Chinese Style Pattern... In general, the development of Go in this world is not much different from that in the previous life. It's just that the players that Yu Shao originally knew have been replaced by players from this world.
However, one big difference is that Go in this world seems to be more international and therefore more valued.
How to say it.
If you watched a British drama about the Middle Ages in your previous life and saw two Westerners playing Go on the screen, I'm afraid everyone would find it inappropriate.
But in this world, this is a very normal thing. No one will think it is wrong. Some people even think it is very reasonable. The director deserves a thumbs up.
This is because, in this world, Go spread to all parts of the world at a very early stage.
Although Go was also popular among many people in the West in the past, its popularity was still relatively low. The main players gathered in Eastern countries, and major competitions were often civil wars among players from Eastern countries.
However, in this world, both in the East and the West, there are very famous Go players. You can often see players of all skin colors competing with each other in international Go competitions.
This led to one thing -
There are more Go tournaments in this world, with more lucrative prizes, but the competition is also fierce! "More than a hundred years ago, when the Go Saint Shen Yi was alive, my country's Go could be considered the best in the world, but now, other countries have caught up, and even many countries have surpassed us."
Wu Shuheng took the microphone and said, "Although my country's Go level is still at the forefront of the world, it has never been able to reach the top again."
"But I always believe that one day, there will be a chess player like Shen Yi back then, who will lead our country's Go to the top of the world again!"
“That chess player could be me.”
As soon as Wu Shuheng finished speaking, everyone in the audience couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"but!"
Wu Shuheng paused, looked at the teachers and students in the audience, and said with a smile: "It could also be you in the audience!"
“We don’t hesitate because of the bumpy road ahead, nor do we tremble because of the strength of our opponents. We keep moving forward and keep climbing. This is what a chess player is!”
As soon as the words came out, the audience burst into warm applause like a tide.
