969 Double Ac (1/2)
Right now, Qi Wan Jie was not only incapable of playing against Jun Mo Xie. Against any chess player in the Misty Illusory Manor, Qi Wan Jie would still be doomed to lose!
He lowered his head, looking at the chess pieces that were placed wrongly on the chessboard. In a moment, he felt hope turn into dust! He pushed the chessboard away, lowering his head even more. In a tone as if he were choking back his tears, he said, ”I… admit defeat…”
This sentence left everyone utterly shocked!
From the start of the game, they'd watched Jun Mo Xie corner Qi Wan Jie. Qi Wan Jie had always been coping with his attacks, with no ability to counterattack back! Until now, the game was halfway through, both parties had already unleashed their ultimate moves!
With this, there could only be one winner now!
Life and death, victory or success would be determined soon!
But Qi Wan Jie surrendered at a moment like this!
Carefully looking at the situation on the chessboard, the black pieces had indeed occupied a significant advantage and dominated all the attacks while the white pieces had been on the defense. Its foundations were significant and had a small chance of obtaining victory, but if he continued to fend, there was still room for him to wait till an opportunity to counterattack. It was not entirely impossible for him to turn things around…
But at a time like this, Qi Wan Jie had already calculated all the moves needed till the end of the game?
So he requested to surrender in advance?
Qi Wan Jie looked up in a daze, his eyes lifeless. He said, ”I am indeed not his match. This match shouldn't have started in the first place because I had already lost right before it started! Playing chess with the intention of gaining benefits… is the taboo of all chess players! How could my game be stable when my mental state is not? Brother Mo is truly highly-skilled; I willingly admit my defeat! I am sincerely convinced to concede!”
Jun Mo Xie lightly heaved a sigh of relief. This victory in this round was really not easy. The mental strain was greater than a huge battle. However, everything was within his expectations.
From the moment Jun Mo Xie began to tell the story, Qi Wan Jie did not interrupt him. From that moment, the outcome was already decided! But he still continued to struggle and made it to midpoint with his solid foundation and tenacious battle strategies!
Jun Mo Xie intentionally mentioned the first line of the couplet, but admitted that he was unable to come up with the second line. This was the real emotional devil he had planted in Qi Wan Jie's heart!
From the moment Qi Wan Jie appeared, Jun Mo Xie had clearly determined his personality and came up with a suitable method to deal with him!
This person was greedy for fame! And a hypocrite! With a personality like this, he cared greatly about gains and losses!
Qi Wan Jie was indeed a talent and stood at the peak with his chess skills, enjoying success as a youth. Naturally, it was inevitable for him to be arrogant and haughty. This was a normal ailment of youths, completely understandable. But it had also created his current personality of viewing himself highly.
In this world, if there was one person who Qi Wan Jie genuinely admired, then there was only Chess Saint Hua Wu Cuo!
Other people, even if it was the Nine Nether First Young Master, would not necessarily move him!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Because Qi Wan Jie didn't dabble in Xuan cultivation…
So although Jun Mo Xie only knew the name of a Chess Saint, he still came up with an exciting story with it, using the reputation of Hua Wu Cuo's art of chess to suppress this young chess champion of the Misty Illusory Manor!
This was only the first step of the plan. The moment Qi Wan Jie's arrogance was successfully oppressed, Jun Mo Xie let him realize the disparity between him and the Chess Saint. He also made use of the opportunity to mention that he had once played against the Chess Saint, and that his skills were on the same level… naturally, dealing another blow to his confidence!
Afterwards, bringing up that couplet at suitable timing, suddenly opening the game when Qi Wan Jie was wholeheartedly focused on how to match the next line of the couplet!
At that time, Qi Wan Jie was already sitting opposite the chessboard. It didn't look sudden in the eyes of outsiders; but to Qi Wan Jie himself, it was completely unexpected. His mind had already wandered off elsewhere, but he was suddenly called back…
Then, he was tossed into an intense match and had to deal with bizarre moves that he had never seen before…
With a mental state like this, how could he not lose? When the match was at its most intense point, where Qi Wan Jie's mental state was like a taut bowstring, on the verge of firing, Jun Mo Xie suddenly brought up the couplet again.
Although he was muttering to himself, Qi Wan Jie was extremely bothered about this… Thus, that casual lament turned into the straw that broke Qi Wan Jie completely, crushing him!
