Qi Wan Jie was not like Lin Qing Yin He had his position as the chess champion of the Mo Jun Ye Even the powerful Zhan Family could not threaten and force hiiven hi as he helped the Zhan Faain countless benefits, and that hat he had always drea
Power, position, beauty, ive it to hiet even if they work hard for the entire life! Naturally, Qi Wan Jie desired it!
But the thing he desired the hest honor and repute froe Hua Wu Cuo and defeat Hua Wu Cuo! This was the highest a!
Between these two things, there was no place for theether!
Everyone present was a talent, soes were all furrowing their brows andto themselves This was a first line of a couplet that had come from the Chess Saint! And the open heartedness hidden in thefeel deeply moved!
Heaven as the chessboard, stars as chess pieces Who is able to play it?
The first line of a couplet like this, so absolute in its words Who could be capable of an to wander, coly, a thin layer of sweat had foran to turn pale Ast all those present here, there was no doubt that he was the one most bothered by this!
Because this half of a couplet had come from Hua Wu Cuo!
Just at this rettably “It’s a pity… Brother Wu Cuo has come up with this first line for me, but even until now, I still haven’t been able to think of the next line that follows… Ai…” This sigh sounded full of disappointment
Qi Wan Jie’s jolted to his senses He couldn’t suppress a s on his face it, then will I still be able to shi+ne? If only you can’t coed to, then it’ll prove that I’er than you! It’ll prove that I’m on the same level as Hua Wu Cuo and stand above you…
Hua Wu Cuo, the Chess Saint—how the rest of the world knows him as I refuse to accept it! The absolute line that you’ve come up with, I will match it no matter what! Just like your reputation of the supreme Chess Saint! One day, sooner or later, it will beco to I, Qi Wan Jie!
Qi Wan Jie was squeezing all his brain juice thinking of how to come up with a line that matched this first line of the couplet…
Just when his brain was about to turn into knots fro, he suddenly heard a pa sound from in front of hi to in?”
Qi Wan Jie opened his eyes in a daze, only realizing that he was sitting before a chessboard, and the prodigy with the Free and Natural Physique was seated opposite hi at hi onto a bunch of chess pieces in his hands, clearly waiting for Qi Wan Jie to start…
“Do what?” Qi Wan Jie asked in a daze He had not cohts of the couplet yet
“Detero first ah… Don’t tellaway inwardly Looks like this fellow’s oes first?… Oh, yes yes, who gets to go first” Qi Wan Jie subconsciously picked up a chess piece from the container and place it on the chessboard
Jun Mo Xie opened up his hand, and the chess pieces scattered onto the chessboard “One pair, two pair, three pairs… Just nice; there are six, looks like I’ve set up the gaone easy already…”
“Oh…” Qi Wan Jie was still deep in his thoughts Heaven as the chessboard, stars as chess pieces Who is able to play it? Who is able to play it? A line that was impossible to be matched, so how could a correct second line be produced? And what sort item would be able to match the beauty of the heavens and stars? The stars are the chess pieces; the heaven is the board Hoas it to be rhy out, and when he looked over, there was one ht star point
The opponent had struck!
Qi Wan Jie suddenly regained a moment of clarity in his mind, and without any hesitation, he matched a piece at the bottom left corner
Pa! Another black chess piece landed on the top left star point!
“What sort of beginning is this?” Qi Wan Jie had becoh chess, but he had never ame to the corner… calling it surrounding the center, it’s not quite… if it’s occupying the sides… it still doesn’t make sense…</e of ‘the corners are gold, the sides are silver, and the center is grass; yet the opponent’s current tactics at placing his pieces was beyond all of Qi Wan Jie’s prior knowledge and comprehension
What he didn’t knoas that it was the one thing he had never seen it before But placing the pieces at the star points was the best method that had been invented after hundreds of years for watching fro the center!
