Chapter 480: Who are the top ten Go players in the world?

 Chinzhou.

 “Lin Zhibai actually won the first game!”

 “The key is the feeling, it’s easy to win!”

“Is Matsumoto Jun being careless, or is Bai Di’s level higher than the other party?”

 …

 Qizhou.

 “The richest man won the first game!”

 “Why is the richest man so powerful!?”

“Then I won’t watch Li Bai anymore. He lost the first game, and there is probably no hope for the second game!”

 …

 Chuzhou.

"How is it possible that Lin Zhibai went to the next city first?"

“Isn’t Jun Matsumoto second only to Mr. Otake? Why are you so passive!”

 “It’s okay, I was probably careless in the first game!”

 …

 Zhaozhou.

 “This Lin Zhibai has something special!”

 “I thought he was going to be finished in the second round!”

“That’s fine, I hope he can advance to the third round and have a chance to compete with our teacher Liu Ji. Then he will definitely be tortured and doubtful about his life!”

 …

 Middle-earth.

 “I am really becoming more and more interested in this Lin Zhibai!”

“I heard that Lin Zhibai applied for seven projects by himself. I used to laugh at this guy, but now it seems that at least he is really confident!”

 “I suddenly feel that he can really make it to the third round!”

 …

After Lin Zhibai defeated Matsumoto Jun in the first game, the number of people watching the second game between him and Matsumoto Jun had already overwhelmed Li Bai and Liu Ji!

 It’s not that there was anything bad about the match between Li Bai and Liu Ji.

 Mainly because of the match between those two, the outcome has already been decided, unlike Lin Zhibai’s side, which was filled with huge suspense!

 This is beyond the expectations of many people!

  After all, people from all over the world who pay attention to Go know what level Jun Matsumoto is!

Although Lin Zhibai is very famous, he is absolutely unknown in the Go world!

As a newcomer with no reputation in the Go world, Lin Zhibai was able to defeat Jun Matsumoto in a match of this size. Even if there was an element of luck, it was amazing enough!

 It’s not necessarily a fluke!

This is why countless Go enthusiasts came to watch the game. Everyone wanted to know whether Lin Zhibai's victory in the first round was luck or strength!

 As for those who watched the first game, they know it clearly!

 Lin Zhibai won the first game not by luck, because Matsumoto Jun's loss was really tragic!

 Just luck can't push Jun Matsumoto to that point!

After watching the second game, those viewers who came in later will understand how strong Lin Zhibai, the "unknown person in the Go world" is!

 It was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

It is normal for Go masters to compete for two hours per game. This is still relatively fast. In some top professional Go competitions, a game can take ten hours. Not to mention the ancient Go players who can play in just one game. It lasted three days and three nights, but because of the special nature of Qizhou Wendou's one event every day, everyone played "fast chess", and the thinking time was limited by rules. Even so, it is estimated that tonight's finals may be close to It's twelve o'clock.

 At this time.

 The second round begins.

Matsumoto Jun takes the lead with black!

As Jun Matsumoto’s black pieces fell, Lin Zhibai also dropped white pieces.

 Five steps.

 Ten steps.

 Fifteen steps.

Go fans from all continents are excited!

“Let me just say that Jun Matsumoto’s loss in the first game was unreasonable. This layout was already better than Lin Zhibai’s!”

 “High hanging!”

"incredible!"

“I feel that Jun Matsumoto’s loss in the previous sentence is also related to his playing white. In his career, the winning rate of starting with black is extremely high!”

“Indeed, when Jun Matsumoto is in charge of black, he can be evenly matched with Otake!”

"etc!"

 “The white flag is up!”

 “Damn, this is a bit of a show!”

Everyone had just finished praising Jun Matsumoto when they realized that Lin Zhibai’s level of skill and skill was too high!

Matsumoto Jun had the experience of a disastrous defeat in the first game and became very cautious. Every time he thought about it, he made a move when the time was almost over.

Lin Zhibai raised his eyebrows and took a step forward.

 Although it has just begun, he obviously feels that Jun Matsumoto is playing better than in the previous game.

Otake Kobayashi, who was already soaking in the hot spring water, came together with Kojiro Suzuki at some unknown time. The two of them were surprised and sighed:

 “This guy is very cunning!”

 “Yes, this is not too powerful!”

 “Fortunately, Matsumoto Jun still has the first mover advantage!”

 “You must keep it up!”

As soon as the two people finished speaking, they saw Lin Zhibai twisting his neck and asking the staff to add some tea to him, looking relaxed and relaxed.

"Depend on!"

 “You’re here to be the uncle, right?”

“Jun Matsumoto was sweating profusely during the game and was very nervous!”

“But this Lin Zhibai, why doesn’t he feel nervous at all?”

 “Tactics!”

 “Matsumoto Jun, don’t be affected!”

Matsumoto Jun was certainly not affected. Although the corner of his mouth twitched, all his attention was still on the chessboard.

 Twenty steps.

 Thirty steps.

 The situation is getting increasingly anxious.

Even if Lin Zhibai is the **** of Go, he still needs a little pulling if he wants to deal with Matsumoto Jun.

  After all, top professional players are close to gods. For example, Jun Matsumoto is estimated to be rated around 90 points according to the system standards.

 Percent score is 90 out of 100.

 Easy is relaxed, but it doesn’t mean that you can treat people like dogs.

Looking at the chess pieces on both sides, one among you and one among me, Lin Zhibai became more and more calm. The more complicated the situation became, the more the opponent could not play with him.

 Jun Matsumoto also realized this.

Lin Zhibai’s thinking is clearer than his own. If the fight reaches the end, his ability will definitely be inferior to his opponent’s!

Then take action!

Matsumoto Jun’s eyes flashed, the cold light was wanton!

 “Awesome!”

 “Jun Matsumoto finally attacks!”

 “Lin Zhibai’s right corner has been caught!”

"Ha ha!"

 “This is the gold content of Matsumoto Jun Zhihei!”

“Jun Matsumoto, who plays black, I feel is even better than Otake Kobayashi!”

 “Hiss!”

 “Oh my God!”

 “What kind of monster is this Lin Zhibai!”

Just when the Chuzhou audience was happy, Lin Zhibai counterattacked and broke the game!

 “Why didn’t I think of this move?”

“Haha, if you can think of it, you are better than Jun Matsumoto!”

 “After all, Jun Matsumoto probably didn’t expect it either!”

 “The right corner is actually alive!”

Matsumoto Jun sighed. This attack failed, and the next step was a tug-of-war, but he still had a trap that was useless!

 He lost a son.

Lin Zhibai took a step forward.

Matsumoto Jun let out a strong breath.

I really thought the opponent was a Go god.

 It turns out that there are times when you fall into the trap!

His own trap really lured Lin Zhibai into taking the bait. Matsumoto Jun chuckled and fell into another trap.

"Chance!"

 Suzuki Kojiro was excited. He felt that this was the closest Jun Matsumoto had come to victory!

"Very good!"

 Xiao Lin Dazhu also smiled, but as Lin Zhibai and Matsumoto Jun fell a few more times, he was confused! not good!

Lin Zhibai’s goal is actually the middle game!

Looking at the previous trap again, Lin Zhibai clearly jumped into it on purpose. Only in this way could he turn the middle game into a metal bucket!

 “It’s over!”

Jun Matsumoto in the game also realized this. His back was instantly wet with cold sweat. When he looked up, he saw Lin Zhibai smiling slightly at him.

That smile was not sarcastic.

 But Jun Matsumoto found it particularly dazzling.

 Because he understood the meaning of Lin Zhibai's smile, he was persuading himself to surrender. It was just that the two of them were not allowed to talk to each other during the game, so the other party would smile like this.

 I don’t know how many times I sighed in my heart.

 Matsumoto Jun finally chose to abandon his son and surrender.

 He ​​and Lin Zhibai both understood that this game could be stalemate until the end of the game, but it was really not necessary because Jun Matsumoto had no comeback point!

this moment!

 Each continent is shocked!

 …

 Chinzhou.

 “I can’t imagine that Chu Ci is really better than Matsumoto Jun!”

“It turns out that the first game was not about luck, both games were about hard power to kill the opponent!”

 “The way to win the middle game is amazing!”

 “The key is that I can’t see Lin Zhibai’s solution!”

“I can’t tell, either. He doesn’t seem to have a specific personal style in playing Go, and it feels a bit unconstrained!”

 The people of Qinzhou were so surprised!

Lin Zhibai’s Go is so powerful!

 …

 Qizhou.

 “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, the richest man really won!”

“So the richest man is so good at Go? I feel like he is even better than Li Bai!”

"Li Bai is still playing the second game and is expected to lose soon, but the richest man has won! In other words, our Qizhou can probably win a silver medal in the end!? After all, only three people advanced in the third round, and that Richuan and so on are not strong to begin with!”

 “Is it possible to defeat Liu Ji?”

 “This is the only thing I can’t imagine!”

 Qi Zhou feels that he will be satisfied if he can get a silver medal today!

 As long as everyone has no expectations, Lin Zhibai has already exceeded the task!

 …

 Chuzhou.

 “I read that right, Jun Matsumoto actually lost to Lin Zhibai!?”

“Are Matsumoto Jun and Lin Zhibai’s strength, who can suppress in two games, among the top ten in the world?”

“Without the level of the top ten in the world, it is really impossible to beat Matsumoto Jun like this. To put it bluntly, wasn’t Matsumoto tortured into a dog by Lin Zhibai!?”

“It seems like there’s a lot of back and forth, but in fact, everything is being controlled at every step!”

"Don't say Jun Matsumoto is not as good as Otake. I feel that even Otake may not be Lin Zhibai's opponent. Fortunately, we have Liu Ji to back it up!"

Now no one doubts that Lin Zhibai is lucky anymore!

However, the Chuzhou audience remained calm, because Liu Ji would punish Lin Zhibai in the third round!

 …

 Zhaozhou.

“There’s something special about this Lin Zhibai, he actually defeated Matsumoto Jun!”

“Hahahahaha, isn’t this just right? Let Liu Ji teach him how to play Go!”

“Although I want to laugh with you, Lin Zhibai’s script on the Go project gives me an ominous feeling.”

 “Haha, are you too cautious?”

“That’s it, Liu Ji is one of the top three in the world. When he is in good condition, he can beat the number one in the world back and forth. Lin Zhibai is far behind!”

 Zhaozhou people have full confidence in Liu Ji!

But this time, a small number of Zhaozhou people felt that Lin Zhibai might not be able to pose a threat to Liu Ji!

 …

 Middle-earth.

 “Being a fan of Lin Zhibai!”

“This man is truly a monster. His Go prowess is most likely among the top ten in the world!”

“Apart from calligraphy, his guqin skills are enough to surprise me. I didn’t expect his Go skills to be so amazing!”

 “I suddenly look forward to him defeating Liu Ji!”

 “Although I also look forward to it, this possibility should be unlikely!”

 At first, the people of Zhongzhou didn't like Lin Zhibai very much because his calligraphy skills posed a huge threat to Zhuge Qiuliang.

 But after looking at the two days of competition, many people have become fans of Lin Zhibai!

 …

the other side.

Li Bai couldn't hold on any longer. No matter how good his mentality was, he couldn't make up for the gap in hard power between him and Liu Ji.

 The match was lost.

Liu Ji, who defeated Li Bai, smiled and said: "Teacher Li's level is better than I thought. No wonder he is better than Dazhu."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Li Bai smiled, but what he actually wanted to say was:

 Lao Liu, your level is a little weaker than I thought.

He must have been severely tortured by Lin Zhibai last night. It was the deepest night I have ever seen!

Although Lao Liu also abused himself, at least Li Bai could still muster some resistance. He even caused a little trouble for Lao Liu at one time!

 “Congratulations to Teacher Liu Ji!”

 The staff member smiled and then said: "Please prepare for the third round."

Liu Ji nodded, then asked with a smile: "Is the third round a civil war between me and the Chuzhou players?"

The staff member said: "No, Teacher Lin Zhibai won."

 Liu Ji was stunned.

Lin Zhibai defeated Matsumoto Jun?

Li Bai seemed to have guessed the outcome a long time ago, and asked with a smile: "Did you take it away at two to zero?"

"Yes."

The staff glanced at Li Bai and thought, weren't you also taken away by Liu Ji at a score of two to zero?

interesting…

 Liu Ji narrowed his eyes. The person who can defeat Jun Matsumoto should not be inferior to Li Bai.

There has never been a number one figure in the Go world, but his strength is not inferior to Li Bai. How high will the upper limit of such a person be?

 Liu Ji decided to take advantage of the preparation time for the third round.

 Review the game between Lin Zhibai and Matsumoto Jun.

 …

 Liu Ji is very stable.

Lin Zhibai is very promiscuous.

After winning the second round, he met Li Bai, who had been eliminated, and asked with a smile: "You didn't win even one game?"

 “It’s Liu Ji after all!”

Li Bai smiled bitterly and said, "I'll be able to rely on you, President, for a while."

Lin Zhibai said: "Actually, I may not be invincible."

In case Liu Ji is also a 100 -point level, then you and the other party will really open in five or five.

 Although this possibility is very small.

  Because 100 points in each major field is the theoretical upper limit of human level.

Taking Guqin as an example, Ye Cai'er is already a monster, but there is still a gap between her and 100 points.

This shows how difficult this thing is.

"You are not invincible yet. To be honest, the pressure Liu Ji puts on me is only one-tenth of the pressure you put on me..."

Li Bai estimated: "Seven out of ten!"

Lin Zhibai raised his eyebrows and said, "But I didn't use all my strength when I tortured you. I don't rule out the possibility that Liu Ji didn't use all his strength either."

 “That’s true.”

Li Bai said this, but he was still optimistic about Lin Zhibai. This was the invincible confidence he had only built up after being abused like a dog!

that's all.

 After resting for half an hour, the third round begins!

 There were three players in the third round, and Lin Zhibai thought he would have to play two more games.

Unexpectedly, Hikawa Goban, who sneaked into the third round, chose to admit defeat. Obviously he also knew that he was just a tactical figure, and his strength was not as good as Lin Zhibai and Liu Ji!

Also good.

 Don’t waste time.

This caused Lin Zhibai and Liu Ji to directly face each other, and a battle for the championship and runner-up was about to begin!
