"This foreigner is really going too far."
"Yeah, do you think you can be so arrogant just because you beat our 4th dan professional chess player?"
"But I heard that he is only a professional second dan. Moreover, he defeated our professional fourth dan player in the middle game."
"No way, he doesn't look that old, how can he be so good at chess?"
"Damn it, didn't you hear what he said? He said we were all garbage."
"To be precise, what he said was that, except for the chess god Lou Yuchen, all our Chinese chess players are garbage."
"He actually went wild on our Chinese territory. I don't think he knows why the flowers are so red, right?"
"Come on, he didn't just beat a professional 4th dan chess player. He has already beaten many of our Chinese professional chess players above 5th dan. He even beat a professional 7th dan chess player."
"What? If that's the case, then his chess skills have already reached the professional eighth dan?"
"Hiss... Professional 8th Dan? Are you kidding me?"
…
A male chess player in his forties stood up and said to the slightly fat and arrogant foreign chess player standing in the middle: "Little guy, say it again?"
"Say it again?" Bobby seemed to have heard a big joke, "You Chinese people actually like to hear others scold you? Well, in this case, I will fulfill your wish."
"You Chinese people, except for the buildings, everything is garbage. Do you know what garbage is?"
Since coming to China, Bobby has never lost a game of chess except for one at a private restaurant.
Before the official start of the Hualong Cup, he found many chess players to play chess with.
As a result, no one was able to fight.
This made Bobby, who had restrained himself after losing the game in the private restaurant, forget about the loss after he won the next game.
He even felt that his chess skills had been improving at a visible speed since he lost that game.
Self-confidence continues to grow with each game of chess.
Bobby even began to thank the Chinese guy who beat him in the private restaurant that day.
Although he dealt Bobby a huge blow, he also made Bobby like a flawed butterfly.
Until today's match, after winning the middle game against a professional 4th dan chess player, his self-confidence has swelled to the point of exploding.
In other words, after defeating a professional 7th dan chess player two days ago, his self-confidence had exploded.
Because he felt that he already had the chess strength of a professional eighth-dan. As long as he wins the Hualong Cup, he can step on these Chinese people and reach the top directly. Then go to participate in the chess god competition.
"Bobby, stop talking." Edward, who was standing by, didn't know what to say when he saw his friend being so arrogant.
He also didn't expect that Bobby could beat so many chess players.
In fact, Edward has always known that Bobby's talent in Go is really amazing.
But he didn't expect that after losing the game in the private restaurant, his chess skills improved rapidly, as if he had taken a super soldier potion.
Although in the Go world, rank does not represent everything.
But sometimes, rank also represents a kind of strength.
Before, Edward was able to persuade Bobby by relying on his better chess skills than Bobby.
But after Bobby defeated Edward, Edward could no longer suppress him.
So, when Edward came out to persuade him, Bobby glared at him directly.
"Edward, you should shut up. I've said it before, someone as weak as you can never become a high-level chess player. The gap between you and me is the best proof of this."
Bobby looked at Edward with some contempt, "If you keep going like this, I will dump you sooner or later."
"Bobby..." Edward looked at Bobby in disbelief. He didn't expect that Bobby would say such words to him.
"Okay, I won't waste my words with you Chinese people." Bobby looked at the middle-aged chess player who stood up, "If you want me to shut up, then please use your chess pieces to speak. Let me make it clear first, I will never give in just because you are an elderly person."
"Me, an old man?" The middle-aged chess man pointed at himself and looked at Bobby in disbelief.
He is only 41 years old this year, and this foreign kid in front of him actually calls him an old man?
It's simply unbearable.
The middle-aged chess player certainly thought about using his chess pieces to crush the foreign kid in front of him speechless.
However, he knew his own strength.
His chess skills are only at the second level, and he was just barely on the line in the adult qualifying tournament.
The kid in front of me is someone who can beat even a professional 7th dan player. If I go up to play chess with him, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?
He saw the middle-aged chess player in front of him gritting his teeth but refusing to agree to play chess with him.
Bobby taunted, "What's wrong? You don't dare?"
The middle-aged chess player clenched his fists and clenched his teeth.
Of course he wanted to yell and play a game of chess with Bobby right away.
But he knew that he could never beat Bobby in chess.
Competing with Bobby would only bring humiliation upon oneself. Giving Bobby the opportunity to mock and insult them more justifiably.
When Bobby saw that the middle-aged chess player didn't answer, his attitude became even worse.
He looked around at the professional chess players who were trying to attack him.
"If you want to attack me, you must defeat me first. Otherwise, no matter how much you Chinese people say, it's just a verbal battle. No matter how much you say, it's still garbage."
"Damn it, I can't help it." Bai Yan was also among those people. Seeing Bobby being so arrogant, he kept calling him trash. He couldn't bear it any longer.
Bai Yan pushed aside a chess player in front of him and opened his mouth.
"Who are you calling trash? Say it again if you dare."
Bai Yan's movement of opening his mouth froze for a moment.
Oh my god, who stole my line?
Looking back, I saw that the people behind me involuntarily made way for me.
A familiar figure in white casual clothes, with his hands in his pockets, walked slowly towards me.
"Is it him? Qiu Shui?"
"Why is he here?"
"I heard that he just competed and his personal time was no more than five minutes."
“Is it so awesome?”
"Do you think he can win this Bobby?"
"How is that possible? I admit that Qiu Shui has some strength. But this Bobby can even beat a professional 7th dan. His chess skills are likely to be 8th dan. How could Qiu Shui, an amateur chess player, possibly beat him?"
"But I heard that the 7th dan player just caught a cold and was not in good shape, so he let the foreign player win?"
"Even if this foreign chess player won unfairly, it is impossible for Qiu Shui to beat him."
…
Qiu Shui ignored the discussions of those people and walked straight to Bobby.
He looked at Bobby's familiar round figure and arrogant face, his eyes as cold as a pond.
"Is it you?"
When he saw that the person who appeared was Qiu Shui, Bobby, who had been so arrogant just now, suddenly felt a chill running up from the soles of his feet to his brain.
I got goosebumps all over my body.
Why is this person here?
Suddenly, Bobby remembered what the chess players had just said.
They said that the person in front of them was named Qiu Shui. Still an amateur chess player.
That's right.
Bobby remembered.
The amateur chess player who ranked first in this Hualong Cup competition is called Qiu Shui.
Since yesterday, Bobby has been hearing about Qiu Shui during the game.
But Bobby just thought the name sounded familiar, but didn't care.
After all, he is just an amateur chess player, not worth wasting his energy and time to pay attention to him.
It was not until he saw Qiu Shui appear here that he remembered it.
By the way, the person in front of me seems to be called Qiu Shui.
No wonder he felt familiar when he heard the name yesterday.
It turns out that Qiu Shui is him.
Until now, Bobby still remembers how Qiu Shui crushed him in the private restaurant.
Qiu Shui took a step forward, but Bobby took a step back reflexively.
"I was just saying, why does that voice sound so familiar? It turned out to be you."
Qiu Shui tilted his head slightly, his eyes gradually becoming cold.
"Originally, I thought that you were deliberately speaking out in our Chinese territory just for some reason. I didn't expect that this is just your personality. It seems that I misunderstood."
“I, you…”
Facing Qiu Shui, Bobby couldn't help but feel the fear of being crushed by him in the chess game.
But when he thought of his recent progress, he seemed to have found courage and support again.
Bobby lengthened his neck and forced his double chin into a straight line. He shouted at Qiu Shui at the top of his voice.
"Qiu Shui, right? Last time, I was careless, so I lost to you. Don't think that you are better than me just because you beat me once. I'm telling you, I will definitely beat you this time."
Stay calm, Bobby, stay calm.
You are no longer the same person you were a week ago.
Your strength has reached the eighth level.
"Oh?" Qiu Shui glanced at him calmly, "It seems that you really want to meet me tomorrow. Very good, I believe that your Western gods will definitely hear your pious cry. Don't be late for tomorrow's game."
After saying that, Qiu Shui turned around and left.
Bobby's face behind him immediately turned pale.
The chess players who were watching were all amazed.
However, the pleasant voice of the system sounded in Qiu Shui's mind.
"Congratulations to the host for triggering the task of showing off wealth by slapping people in the face continuously. Superb Go skills are also a kind of extraordinary wealth. The host needs to show off his wealth."
"Tomorrow, please ask the host to go all out in the match against the chess player from the Mi Empire, Bobby 2nd Dan. Let Bobby 2nd Dan deeply realize that in addition to the chess god Lou Yuchen, there are even more formidable chess players in China."
"China is an inclusive and friendly country. Host, please, as a Chinese chess player, save a foreign chess player who is about to go astray!"
"If the mission succeeds, you will be rewarded with a lucky draw. If the mission fails, you will be killed. Please, host, do your best!"
Qiu Shui paused as he walked towards the underground parking lot.
Just now he was still thinking about how to trick the system so that he could fight against Poppy.
He didn't expect that this mission would come so timely, and he and Bobby were assigned to it directly.
Moreover, it was a mission that would result in elimination if failed.
Judging from the reward experience gained from previous tasks.
The more severe the punishment, the greater the reward seems to be.
Very good, tomorrow will be a day of great harvest.
