"Your Dragon Slaying Technique is not yet fully proficient."
This cannot be blamed on Kong Yinzi. Kong Yinzi practices the art of Tulongwei every day and has actually mastered it.
However, facing Yushan Heren, Kong Yinzi still could not use Tulongwei. After all, Yushan Heren was the founder of Tulongwei and the person who was most familiar with Kong Yinzi.
Basically, every time Kong Yinzi makes a move, Yushan Heren can foresee the next twenty or thirty moves.
"The Dragon King Tournament will begin in late October."
While playing chess, Kong Yinzi finally spoke.
"Dragon King Tournament?"
As the tournament with the highest prize money among all the shogi title tournaments, the Ryuo Tournament is naturally very famous. In Japan, basically anyone who knows a little about shogi will pay attention to this feast.
Last year, Kuzuryuu Yaichi won the title of Dragon King and was directly promoted to the eighth dan, becoming a rising star in the shogi world.
"I understand." Yushan Heren nodded and said.
Yushan Kazuto's attitude was always so casual, which made Sora Ginko a little unhappy. It was fine that she didn't pay attention to the work of the Shogi Federation, but she was the one who reminded him, and he always acted as if he didn't care.
"We are all new professional chess players and will be divided into the sixth group. Only the winners of the six groups can enter the knockout round."
The competition format of the Ryuo Tournament is rather strange, or rather, the competition formats of all shogi title tournaments are rather strange.
New chess players can only enter the sixth group and fight their way up one game at a time. After entering the knockout round, they must complete a series of sevens to get the title of Dragon King.
Kong Yinzi and Yushan Heren are in the same group, so there is no need to consider advancing. Unless Yushan Heren lets them off, there is no possibility of advancing.
"Please help me sign up."
Yushan and Rendao.
"Yes." Kong Yinzi nodded, "After you sign up, I will tell you the time and place of the game."
"Is there any other location?" Yushan Kazuto blinked.
"There is no qualifying round, but there will be one after the challenge round." Kong Yinzi said.
"Doesn't the challenge start next summer?"
Yushan and Ren smiled. He really couldn't leave recently. If he had to travel all over Japan for the qualifying matches, he would have to give up the Dragon King Tournament.
"Yes." Kong Yinzi nodded, "Then I will go back first."
……
"Bye-Bye."
"Goodbye, Sister Yinzi."
Seeing that Sora Ginko had left, Touma Sanae and Tsuchima Mai felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so they left as well. Only Yushan Kazuto and Shirasaki Hana were left in the living room.
"Brother Kazuto, do you like playing shogi?" Shirosaki Hana suddenly asked.
"Not really." Yushan Heren scratched his head. Anyway, he became a professional chess player without knowing why. It's not certain that he likes it very much.
"However, Xiaohua, you seem to be quite interested." Yushan Heren smiled.
Shirosaki Hana shook her head: "I... I don't quite understand it, but there are classmates in my class who like shogi very much, so I want to learn a little bit about it."
"Sure, do you want me to teach you?" Yushan Heren said.
"No! I want Sister Ginko to teach me. Brother, you play chess too aggressively." Baisaki Hana said with disdain.
Although she couldn't understand shogi, she could understand the momentum of Yushan and Ren when they played shogi. She definitely couldn't learn how to play Yushan and Ren.
"Then let Ginko teach you, but your sister Ginko has to go to bed after nine o'clock every night! If it's too late, don't look for her." Yushan Kazuto touched Shirasaki Hana's little head.
"Eh... Sister Ginko, do you go to bed so early? I've seen people playing shogi on TV stay up all night long."
"It's not that exaggerated." Yushan Heren chuckled.
……
Japan Shogi Association, President's Office.
"The Dragon King War is about to begin." Moonlight Holy City whispered.
"Well, it's a few days earlier than previous years," said Oga Sasori.
"Has the Yomiuri Shimbun responded? Why does this year's Dragon King Battle have to be moved forward?" asked Moonlight Shengshi.
"It seems that due to the impact of the Eio Tournament, the addition of the Eio Tournament has compressed the game time throughout the year. Therefore, the Yomiuri Shimbun decided to advance the Ryuou Tournament a little bit, and it may be further advanced next year." Oga Sasori replied.
"I understand." Moonlight Saint City said.
"Also, how are Yushan, Renren and Sora Ginko's recent performances?"
"Hayama Kazuto...has not participated in a professional league since becoming a professional chess player. Sora Ginko, however, participated in three games and won all three." Oga Sasori said as he flipped through the information in his hand.
"Have they signed up for the Dragon King Battle?" Moonlight Holy City continued to ask.
"Not yet, but registration has been open for seven days, so there should be some registration."
"If you haven't signed up in three days, please contact Junior Brother Qinglong for me." Moonlight Shengshi said.
"Okay, President Moonlight, I understand."
"Also...what's the situation with Kuzuryuu Yaichi?"
"Kuzuryu Yaichi has signed up early, but Yokoo Sike hasn't signed up yet."
“I didn’t ask
That's it, I'm asking about the results of the game between Kuzuryuu Yaichi and Kuzuryuu Yaichi." Moonlight Seiichi said.
"Since becoming the Dragon King, Kuzuryuu Yaichi has played against him forty-seven times, winning fourteen times and losing thirty-three times. The overall winning rate is less than 30%." said Oga Sasori.
“It’s still less than 30%.” Moonlight Holy City shook his head.
"Okay, go do other work first."
Oga Sasori nodded and was about to leave when he received a message: "President, Sora Ginko and Yuyama Kazuto have signed up."
"It seems that this time, Group Six is going to stir up a bloody storm." Moonlight Shengshi rested his hands on the table and rested his chin on his back.
……
"Yaichi, have you signed up for the Dragon King battle?" Yokoo Nishiki walked into Kuzuryu Yaichi's room.
"I've already signed up, Master." Jiu Tou Long Ya nodded and said, "Master, what about you?"
"I just got the news that Yushan Kazuto and Sora Ginko have signed up for the competition."
When the names of these two people were mentioned, Kuzuryuu Yaichi clenched his fists a little angrily.
"I will defeat them." said Kuzuryuuya.
"I believe in your strength, Yaichi." Yokoo Nishikawa said, "But strength is only one aspect of the problem. In addition, necessary tactics cannot be skimped on."
"Master, what do you mean?" Kuzuryuu Yaichi didn't quite understand.
"I heard that celebrities would also participate in this Dragon King Battle. After learning that they had signed up, I also chose to sign up."
"Then this time, the first group of qualifying will probably be very lively." Kuzuryuuya said with a blink.
"Yes."
Chapter 319: Eriri, don't lead Sagiri astray~
"Team 2?"
Kuzuryu Yaichi was a little confused as to why Yokoo Nishikawa would let him take second place in the group. The first place in the first group could directly advance to the semi-finals.
"Do you want to meet Kazuto Yuyama in the semi-finals?" asked Yokoo Nishikawa.
Although he has always been eager to fight against Yushan Kazuto, Kuzuryu Yaichi is also clear that his chances of winning against Yushan Kazuto may be less than 10%.
In other words, a 10% winning rate is a bit exaggerated.
Kuzuryu Yaichi had studied the chess records of Hayama Kazuto many times, trying to find the flaws of Hayama Kazuto, and the final conclusion was - there were no flaws.
Ever since Yushan Kazuto entered the chess academy, his chess skills had actually been close to perfection. As for the chess games he had played before, the only one widely circulated on the Internet was Yushan Kazuto's humiliating defeat of himself.
"I understand, Master." Kuzuryuu Yaichi lowered his head.
"Let the celebrities fight him. Bayi, you come out last."
Yokoo Xike laughed, and his laugh was very sinister and terrifying.
……
"By the way, Yinglili."
"What, what are you doing?" Eriri was startled by Yushan Kazuto's shout.
"Don't lead Sagiri astray! If you want to draw, draw well, don't draw something messy!"
"That...that's not a mess at all, what do you know?"
Although Nishimiya Naoko couldn't speak, she nodded in agreement.
"Well, anyway, you can't teach Sagiri to draw those things." Yushan Kazuto said.
Eriri blinked.
[What do you mean by "I led Sagiri astray"? Have you ever seen Sagiri's paintings? ]
When teaching Sagiri Izumi to draw breasts, Eriri made a lot of preparations. Unexpectedly, these preparations were basically useless. Just by looking at a few silicone models, Sagiri Izumi learned it by herself.
Although Sayuri Sawamura is also a otaku, she is not a creative otaku. She can support Eriri's comic career, but she cannot provide much constructive help.
The most that Sayuri Sawamura did for Eriri was managing funds, printing books, etc.
In contrast, Izumi Sagiri's mother is a genuine creative otaku. As the first generation Eromanga teacher, her painting skills and professional knowledge are among the best in the otaku circle.
Under her guidance, Izumi Sagiri had a solid foundation in painting at a very young age. In terms of laying the foundation, she did a better job than Eriri.
This is also the reason why she learned it without any guidance after looking at a few silicone models.
Of course, if she could see real breasts, her skills would be further improved.
……
"Sagiri? Sagiri?"
"Kazuto-nii-nii."
Izumi Sagiri opened the door a little, saw the two people behind Yushan Kazuto, and quickly closed the door again.
"Sagiri is a shy girl. She probably went to look for a mask." Yushan Kazuto said.
Sure enough, not long after, Izumi Sagiri opened the door again, but with a mask on her face.
"I brought your sister Eriri here, you can exchange some painting techniques." Yushan Kazuto said with a smile.
"Sister Eriri, come in."
Eriri walked into the room carrying her painting tools, and Izumi Sagiri stared at Nishimiya Naoko: "Sister, aren't you coming in?"
Nishimiya Glass shook her head. She couldn't draw. Although she liked watching others draw, seeing that Izumi Sagiri was so shy, she thought it would be better not to add to her psychological pressure.
Izumi Sagiri felt a little strange as to why Nishimiya Naoko didn't say anything. However, since she didn't intend to go in, she didn't plan to ask any further questions and closed the door gently.
Touma Sanae and Shirosaki Hana were sitting on the sofa, teasing Koyuki. When they saw Yushan Kazuto and the other man coming over, they snorted in dissatisfaction.
She did know Eriri, after all, she had been to Tama, but she didn't know Nishimiya Shoko.
Shirasakika felt that after only living with Hayama Kazuto for a few days, she seemed to have many more sisters.
"Are you Xiaohua?" Nishimiya Naoko wrote on the paper.
Shirosaki Hana nodded: "My name is Shirosaki Hana, what about you, sister?"
"Nishimiya Glass."
Shirosaki Hana blinked. Why didn't this sister say anything? However, she looked very kind with her smile on her face.
"Sister Nitro, your handwriting is very beautiful."
"Thank you." Nishimiya Glass wrote quickly.
Shirasaki Hana looked at Yushan Kazuto in confusion. Yushan Kazuto looked at Nishimiya Naoko with a questioning look, and when she nodded, he spoke:
"Xigong is a little aphasic and can't speak very well."
