Go: 50-50 split between me and AI

Chapter 79 78. Ninth Game
The few days of rest between the qualifiers and this match passed quickly, and the fixed-stage match quickly started.

Ying Jie still plays chess step by step every day.

In the first round, 150 three-handed Dragon Slayer won.

In the second round, 130 defeated the dragon with one hand.

The third round...

fourth……

Everyone in the surrounding area had a feeling that Ying Jie's condition seemed to be getting better and better, and with the continuous accumulation of victories, it seemed that a kind of momentum was being accumulated.

It seems that he is accumulating some important games.

Ying Jie won until the eighth round. If he wins another game, according to the rules, nine wins out of ten rounds will make him advance. Ying Jie will become the first professional player to be ranked in advance.

However, Ying Jie, who has won eight consecutive victories, finally met an opponent who also maintained eight consecutive victories.

Xiao Xiao, who has maintained his best form this year.

Originally, everyone was always worried about Xiao Xiao's state. There is no problem with his strength, but he will always lose his mentality and perform abnormally in important games.

In previous years, I was ill and lost key rounds. Various reasons caused me to fail three times. This year, I was fixed for the fourth time.

According to Mr. Qi, if it is really based on the real level, Xiao Xiao should become a professional player at most the second time.

But life is always accompanied by various accidents, and it is impossible to only depend on chess strength for everything.

Ying Jie's first battle was a civil war, and his last battle was also a civil war.

It may be a coincidence, or it may be inevitable.

The two people who are in the best form this year will inevitably meet together.

In the competition venue, Xiao Xiao and Ying Jie sat opposite each other, although the two had played several times in the dojo and official competitions.

But when they sat facing each other again, Xiao Xiao still felt a heavy feeling.

The two sides have played more than a dozen rounds formally and informally, and I have not won a game. This time, can I win?
"The ninth round of the 2009 fixed-stage competition, the competition officially begins! Please guess first!"

As the referee's voice sounded on the radio, Xiao Xiao took a deep breath, adjusted his state and placed a chess piece on the board.

"In the past six months, I have learned a lot from you, let you see my results!"

Ying Jie goes black first.

Seeing the white chess piece he got for the first time, Xiao Xiao was a little surprised, because in the previous games, no matter how he guessed first, Ying Jie always got the white chess piece.

But this time, hold the white for yourself!

Xiao Xiao's eyes narrowed.

This time, I can win!
And Ying Jie, who got the black chess, looked calm. He had played against Xiao Xiao more than a dozen times, except for the first time Xiao Xiao let go, and the more he played, the more conservative he became.

On the contrary, Xiao Xiao's own style is very aggressive, charging forward like a death squad.

To put it simply, in the previous dozen or so rounds, Xiao Xiao basically didn't show his normal strength against himself.

With hands tied, Ying Jie always takes it down easily.

Smile, can you surprise me this time?

Ying Jie chose Xing Xiaomu to start the game, jumping to defend the corner, while Xiao Xiaomian corresponds to Jie's rare double star.

Because he was not familiar with the dot-three-three formula before, Xiao Xiao was rarely in the star position when facing Yingjie, but this time he actually got two consecutive stars.

In the past, Ying Jie always came down to the star position to lure Xiao to laugh.

This time it seems that the situation is reversed, and Xiao Xiao seduces Ying Jie to go to the corner.

The sixth move, white chess, Xiao Fei in the lower left corner.

Maintaining the status quo.

Waiting for Ying Jie to make a move, see the move and disassemble it.

The seventh move, black chess, shoulder charge!
Here it is, looking at the familiar chess moves, even if you don't look at who the opponent is, just looking at this chess, Xiao Xiao knows that the opponent will be Ying Jie.

This innovative way of playing has never been seen on the second person.

The eighth move, White, Climb!

Faced with Xiao Xiao's response, Ying Jie directly chose to dismantle the side from above.

Xiao Xiao immediately understood Ying Jie's intentions, and Xiao Fei hung his horns to restrict Ying Jie's wings.

Facing Xiao Xiao's method in the upper right corner, Ying Jie didn't choose the block that Xiao Xiao thought, and jumped directly to the left.

The two sides actually ignored each other, as if they were playing their own.

No.18 move, white chess, fly!

Want to limit your look while stretching yourself out?
But it's a pity that my two wings have already spread, and I will start to weaken you next.

No.19 move, black chess, with a small flying corner in the lower right corner.

After Xiao Xiao chose Xiao Fei, Ying Jie went straight to the role.

Seeing Ying Jie's choice, Xiao Xiao fell into thinking.

If it was the original self, he would definitely choose to make a move, and then Ying Jie can directly make up the move and live out easily.

But this time, regardless of winning or losing, I will play my own chess.

No.20 second-hand, white chess, eleven out of sixteen, scored.

Seeing Ying Jie doing this, he immediately understood Xiao Xiao's determination.

Go is also called hand talk.

Even if the two parties in the game do not speak, they can understand what the other party wants to say.

Xiao Xiao, I can see your determination.

I will also let you see my best.

The two immediately began to fight below. After forcing Xiao Xiao to make up work in the lower right corner, Ying Jie came to the right shoulder again.

Xiao Xiao still chose to climb as he did at the beginning.

But seeing this move, Ying Jie couldn't help shaking his head.

Seeing Ying Jie shaking his head, Xiao Xiao froze for a moment.

Ying Jie has many nicknames in the dojo. Those who have a good relationship with him call him Jie Bao, and those who are younger like Cuckoo call him Jie Ge.

On chess, there are those called aliens, some called bad-hearted people, and all kinds of messy nicknames like Flying Immortals.

But there is also a peculiar nickname, called the shaking head lion.

After making a bad move, many chess players can't help but shake their heads and start blaming themselves after realizing it.

After all, after countless ideas that he vomited blood painstakingly, once the advantage of a bad move was lost, it was hard not to blame himself.

But Ying Jie's shaking of his head was more like the opponent's bad move, he couldn't bear to shake his head.

Some people in the dojo said before that if Yingjie starts to shake his head in a game of chess and chooses to admit defeat decisively, then don't waste everyone's time.

This trick is your defeat.

Immediately responding to Jie's next step, Xiao Xiao knew where his problem was.

No.40 five moves, black chess, big fly.

Seeing the three sunspots forming a connection, Xiao Xiao immediately began to calculate.

The three pieces look loose and seem to be easy to cut off.

But after Xiao Xiao calculated carefully, he found that it was impossible to cut off the connection between these three chess pieces.

Sure enough, the move just now should have been a direct attack, but now Ying Jie took advantage of it, and he was unable to make a move, feeling that he had nowhere to use his strength.

After thinking about several follow-up methods, Xiao Xiao still couldn't find a picture he was satisfied with.

Looking at Ying Jie who was waiting for his response, Xiao smiled heartily.

No.40 six moves, White, damn it!

Then come right away!
