[This time, I won't let you escape! ]
……
Friday, Japan Shogi Association.
"so cold."
Last night there was a sudden strong wind and heavy snow, and the temperature dropped ten degrees overnight.
Even though the air conditioner was on in the Japan Chess Institute, Kazuto Yuyama still felt a little cold.
Therefore, seeing Sora Ginko wearing a kimono, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but feel a little admiration: "Ginko, aren't you cold wearing just these clothes?"
Kong Yinzi glanced at Yushan Heren and said, "Stop talking!"
"Your body is in such bad condition now that you cannot stand the cold." Yushan Heren said seriously.
Although Kong Yinzi's illness was cured, Ye Mi could do nothing about her naturally weak constitution and could only rely on her for care.
"Stop talking nonsense and don't interrupt my train of thought!"
Kong Yinzi was simulating the chess moves in her mind, but Yushan Kazuto kept talking beside her, which made her feel a little unhappy, but also a little happy.
Of course, she would not tell Yushan Kazuto that she had put a circle of heat packs under the waist belt of her kimono and one on each sole of her feet.
The diligent hot pack continued to emit heat, providing warmth to Sora Ginko. Although the kimono was not very thick, it was enough.
"Ah!" Yushan Heren blinked and stretched lazily.
Seeing this, Kong Yinzi took out a folding fan and tapped Yushan Heren lightly.
"What? You hit me again! I feel like I come here every Friday not to play chess, but to get beaten."
Although Kong Yinzi hit him lightly and it didn't hurt at all, Yushan Heren said so.
"Who told you to stretch and interrupt my thoughts?" Kong Yinzi said.
Kong Yinzi was right both times, and Yushan Heren had no way to seek justice, so he could only shrug his shoulders and was too lazy to argue with her.
"By the way, Yin Zi, are you going to school to take the exam at the end of the term?"
After a few minutes of silence, Yushan Heren suddenly asked again.
"Hmm. What's wrong?" Kong Yinzi gave up the idea of simulating a battle in her mind. When Yushan and others were around, Kong Yinzi always felt a little confused.
Moreover, Yushan Heren kept talking and disturbing her. Kong Yinzi couldn't help but stare at Yushan Heren, wanting to see what he would say.
What is the reason?
"I'm holding a study session at home tomorrow. Kei, Komari and the others will be there. Will you come?" asked Kazuto Yuyama.
Kong Yinzi fell into deep thought.
Her grades are actually not bad, and she is in the upper-middle level in the class.
It is rare that Sora Ginko can maintain such achievements in addition to playing shogi.
Many professional chess players have neglected their studies since they embarked on the path of shogi. They fought to the death in the blue ocean of shogi, but ultimately achieved no results. When they looked back on their studies, they found that they were already a mess.
After all, not everyone is like Kazuto Yuyama, who is not only invincible in shogi but also has excellent results.
"Is the brat here?" After thinking for a while, Kong Yinzi asked.
"Xiao Ai will be here tomorrow." Yushan Heren nodded.
It was because Hinazuru Ai and Yukinoshita Yukino were both there that Yuyama and Ren Ren decided to schedule the study session on Saturday.
In fact, Yushan Kazuto himself prefers to hold the study session on Sunday, but last night Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly sent a message saying that she would go back to Yukinoshita's main home on Sunday, so she planned to come over on Saturday.
Yushan and others simply scheduled the study session for Saturday.
Upon hearing the news that Hinazuru Ai was there, Sora Ginko couldn't help but frown.
[Damn you little brat, why do you come to Tokyo every week? 】
"Xiao Ai's grades seem to be pretty good, but I heard that her English is a little weak." Yushan Kazuto looked up at the ceiling and suddenly said.
"I'll participate." Kong Yinzi said.
Chapter 558: Advancement to the Dragon King Tournament
"An easy win."
After watching the game between Yushan and Ren, Yashashen Tianyi's eyes flickered.
Looking at any one of the moves individually, Yushanheren's moves were all mediocre, but looking at the overall situation, it was like a well-designed trap, with one link after another, leaving the opponent with nowhere to escape.
"What an exquisite layout, just like a fine work of art." Moonlight Holy City couldn't help but say.
The stronger the chess skills, the more you can see how amazing the height that Yushan Kazuto stands at is. This is a kind of unattainable horror.
"If an invincible shogi player really appeared in the shogi world, you would have a headache, right, President Moonlight?" Yashashin Tianyi suddenly asked.
"In fact, I've been having a headache since I learned his name." Moonlight Shengshi smiled.
An invincible player can easily destroy the entire shogi system, just like a basketball player who can shoot 100% of the time can kill all suspense for the team.
Shogi is a form of competition, and in the field of competition, no suspense means boredom.
The reason why shogi is so fascinating and has more than 10 million fans in Japan is because of this suspense and uncertainty.
In the past, even the strongest players only had an annual winning rate of about 80%. But with the appearance of Yushan Kazuto, this number has been rewritten to 100%!
Even though it's only a 20 percent difference, it's actually a world of difference.
In order to prevent Shogi from losing its suspense, the Shogi Federation even banned the involvement of AI in the Shogi field, and also banned professional players from using AI for Shogi training.
But no one expected that a freak like Yushan Kazuto would appear.
Moonlight Holy City even suspected that even if Yushan and others were allowed to fight against AI, they would not necessarily lose.
Sometimes, Moonlight Seiichi would think, it would be great if there had never been a person named Kazuto Yuyama in the shogi world.
However, as a shogi player, Gekko Seiichi wants to see how far Yushan Kazuto can go.
Now Yushan Heren’s chess is a little difficult for him to understand, but Moonlight Holy City can still feel that Yushan Heren’s chess skills are still rising.
A true genius is enough to drive the development of the entire shogi industry.
In fact, by studying the chess records of Yushan Kazuto, many chess players have made great progress in their chess skills.
Just like Yaksha Shen Tianyi who often follows Moonlight Shengshi, Moonlight Shengshi feels that Yaksha Shen Tianyi is even close to the level of a professional chess player.
Of course, under the influence of Yushan Kazuto, the entry level of professional chess players is also rising, but there is no doubt that Yashashin Tenyi, standing on the path opened up by Yushan Kazuto, has reached a height that she once could not reach.
Another typical case is Kong Yinzi, who has even become a professional chess player.
After all, Kong Yinzi is a friend of Yushan Kazuto, so she is the first to get the moon because she is close to the water, and she even received personal guidance from Yushan Kazuto.
In the eyes of Moonlight Holy City, Kong Yinzi's chess skills are now not inferior to many eighth and ninth dan chess players.
Maybe her master, Kiyotaki Kosuke, is no longer able to defeat her.
Recently, when Sora Ginko asked Kiyotaki Kosuke to play chess with her, Kiyotaki Kosuke always refused for various reasons. Perhaps this is also a proof that Kiyotaki Kosuke has fallen behind Sora Ginko.
The existence of Hayama Kazuto can promote the leapfrog development of shogi level.
But at the same time, the existence of Hayama Kazuto may cause the loss of commercial value in the shogi industry.
Moonlight Holy City thought about it for a long time and found that this was an unsolvable circular paradox, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
"But now I've come to terms with it. This unbeatable chess player has appeared, and there's nothing else I can do."
Yaksha God Tianyi blinked, somewhat confused about the intention of Moonlight Holy City, and began to review the situation with the tablet.
Although it is difficult to understand Yushan and others’ layout every time I review the game, it is still very helpful.
It's like a high school student watching a video of a great mathematician. Although he may not understand what he is doing at all, as long as he studies it over and over again, he can at least learn some mathematical ideas.
……
Back in the preparation room, Yushan Kazuto stretched.
He was quite satisfied with today's game. His opponent was not a procrastinator. When he found that there was no chance of improvement, he immediately gave up struggling and surrendered.
After all, he had lost several games before and had no chance of qualifying as the first in the six groups. The reason he stayed in the Dragon King Tournament was just for the bonus for attending.
Although the prize money for the winner of each game is twice that of the loser, he also knows that he has no chance of winning at all.
Instead of playing with Yushan and others until you are exhausted, it is better to surrender early and go back to study the chess skills of the next opponent.
There are people who devote their entire lives to shogi, but for most professional shogi players, shogi has become a means of making a living.
After experiencing the repeated ravages and frictions from geniuses of different generations, their former edges and corners have long been smoothed out.
It is certainly respectable not to give up, but there is nothing shameful about giving up.
Especially when the opponent is an all-around chess player who never makes mistakes, struggling to survive is futile.
In fact, even if the other party is unwilling to surrender, Yushan Heren is confident that he can send the other party home within five moves.
After sitting in the chair and resting for a while, Kong Yinzi also walked into the preparation room.
"Yin Zi, congratulations, you've won another victory."
Seeing Kong Ginko's expression, Yushan Kazuto knew the battle situation.
If Kong Yinzi looks like he is gritting his teeth, it means he has lost the game. In other cases, Kong Yinzi usually wins the game.
"Congratulations to you too, for advancing ahead of schedule." Kong Yinzi walked to the locker, looked forward, and said coldly.
“Well, actually, I think you can congratulate me when the groups are announced.” Yushan Kazuto scratched his head and smiled.
Among the six groups, Yushan Kazuto is ranked first with an undefeated record, while Sora Ginko is ranked second with one loss, and the other players have accumulated at least two losses.
Even if Yushan loses the next game and Kong Yinzi wins, it will not affect his qualification. After all, he has already defeated Kong Yinzi, and based on the win-loss record, he has already obtained the qualification.
"Even if we are not in the same group, you will still be qualified to participate in the competition." Yushan Heren shrugged and said.
Kong Yinzi snorted coldly. For a new professional chess player, it was good enough to qualify for the Dragon King Tournament. How could he be assigned to another group?
Although it is indeed a bit of a waste of their abilities to put them in the sixth group, Kong Yinzi does not have too many complaints.
After entering the locker room and changing clothes, Sora Ginko walked over to Yushan Kazuto and said, "Let's go."
Yushan and Ren quickly got up and chased after him.
Chapter 559: Mamoru-chan Wants to Treat Guests
"Study session? Are we going to have a study session with Brother Ren tomorrow?"
In the hall, several lolis were discussing.
"Xiao Ai, don't you know? Don't you go to the Demon Lord's house every Friday?" Mizukoshi Mio asked with her head tilted.
Hinazuru Ai shook her head. Yushan Kazuto had never told her these things. If she had known that Yushan Kazuto was going to hold a study session, she would have brought her textbooks with her.
"Kazuto-nii just confirmed the time today, and hasn't had time to inform Ai yet." Shirosaki Hana explained.
In fact, Yushan Kazuto had decided on the time for the study session last night, but Shirasaki Hana had already fallen asleep at the time, so he told her after waking up in the morning.
"So that's how it is!" Hinazuru Ai's originally drooping ahoge hair instantly stood up. As long as Yushan Kazuto didn't deliberately conceal the truth and exclude her, it would be fine.
"Xiao Ai, are you also attending the study session?" Yushan Heren walked out from the side. He just heard a few people discussing the study session.
"Of course I'll join!" Hinazuru Ai saluted.
"I didn't notify you in advance, and you probably didn't bring your textbooks with you. Go back and see if Xiaohua's textbook can be used." Yushan Heren said.
"Tsk." Hearing what Yushan and others said, Kong Yinzi looked away with dissatisfaction.
Hinazuru Ai glanced at Sora Ginko, made a small face, and then turned back to look at Yushan Kazuto: "Xiaohua and I are in the same grade, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"That's good." Yushan Kazuto smiled, "But tomorrow's study session will probably last until very late, so remember to inform Uncle Hinazuru and ask him to extend his room."
"I know, Kazuto-nii." Hinazuru Ai nodded and said with a smile.
A small person suddenly came out from behind Yushan Heren and hugged Yushan Heren's thighs: "Study meeting, Charlotte, you have to participate too."
Yushan Kazuto lowered his head and looked at Charlotte, blinking: "But Charlotte, aren't you attending a French school?"
The language of instruction in the French school was French, which made me feel a little out of place with the other people in the study group.
"Hana, Mio, Ai, and Ayano are all... all participating. Charlotte wants to join, too."
