After taking a few deep breaths, Kuzuryuu Yaichi said, "As I recall, I should be able to quit the game on the battle platform."
"That won't work. I have to win three games in a row, otherwise I have to win five games to qualify."
[Qualified? So he's a preliminary contestant in the National Online Shogi League Tournament? I took the initiative to challenge an amateur among amateurs? ]
Jiutou Long Yaichi shook his head: "It's up to you then."
Several chess players and onlookers seemed unhappy. Fighting one against two is a big taboo in shogi. It shows no respect for the opponent or shogi.
The chessboard was quickly set up, and Kuzuryuu Yaichi launched the first attack. According to his usual style of play, he was more like a shrewd and steady player, but after learning that Hayama Kazuto was participating in the preliminary round of the National Online Shogi League Tournament, he just wanted to win as quickly as possible and completely shatter Hayama Kazuto's self-confidence.
[I don't know why you are so confident when you are just an ordinary person? 】
[An amateur chess player dared to fight two people alone. He is really amateurish.]
"Can you play faster? Didn't you say we should play fast?" Seeing Kuzuryuu Yaichi who was a little absent-minded, Yushan Kazuto urged him.
"What, you've already downloaded it?" Kuzuryuu Yaichi finally reacted.
[What is Yushan's strategy in this game? ] Sora Ginko lowered her head in thought. When playing against Kuzuryuuya, Yushan Kazuto unexpectedly
Another style of play has been switched.
【This step? 】
Kuzuryu Yaichi also did not understand the chess moves of Yushan Kazuto, but he quickly defined Yushan Kazuto's character.
[Amateur chess players often make bad moves and feel proud of it.]
"Pa", "Pa", "Pa"...
The chessboard of the Sky Torii is made of nanmu wood. The sound of the chess pieces falling on the chessboard is heavy and very pleasant.
The battle on the chessboard was without smoke, but extremely brutal. After Yushan and Ren used a dragon horse to lure and subdue the Dragon King of Kuzuryuu Yaichi, Kuzuryuu Yaichi had no power to turn the tide.
"Xiao Ai, you come." Yushan Heren shrugged. The situation was now very clear. The opponent only had one jade general and one gold general left. In at most six moves, Jiu Tou Long Yaichi would be defeated. Yushan Heren was too lazy to play anymore.
The opponent's strength is still not weak, at least much higher than Sora Ginko and Hinazuru Ai, but in the eyes of Yushan Kazuto, he is just average.
[Maybe he has the level of a 4th dan chess player? ]
"Hey, let Xiao Ai come over?" The aho hair on Hinazuru Ai's head moved.
Kuzuryuu Yaichi widened his eyes, unable to believe his eyes. He was actually - completely slaughtered!
If not a single child is left, the whole group will be slaughtered.
Kong Yinzi's eyes flickered as well. No wonder Yushan and others made such strange moves at the beginning of the game. It turned out that he was planning to kill everyone.
"Is that person weak?" Kato Megumi didn't quite understand shogi, so she asked with her head tilted.
Chapter 82 Why are you here too?
After dinner, Toumori Sanae and Eriri took a bath in the hot spring.
"It's so comfortable. I really want to spend every day leisurely like this, without being urged to submit manuscripts or studying English." Ying Lili sighed comfortably.
"Idiot Ying Pingping, you're going to fail the English exam again this midterm, death!" Toumori Sanae wiped her body and said disdainfully.
"How, how is it possible that I failed? Well, at least I am half British!" Eriri said this without confidence.
"Hehehe, idiot Ying Pingping, it must be Morioka Yoko who will help you this time." Touma Sanae pursed her lips and smiled sarcastically.
"Wulusai! Damn you!" Eriri turned aside, not wanting to listen to what Touma Sanae said.
"Hey, Ying Pingping, after taking a hot spring bath, let's go out for a walk and explore if there are any mysterious seals or death barriers nearby!" Toumori Sanae came over.
"You're not sleeping at night, and you're out looking for some kind of barrier, Donggua Miao, are you stupid?"
Ying Lili's face changed when she heard this. The thought of going out at night to look for these strange things was scary. Of course, she would never admit it.
"Idiot Ying Pingping, can you sleep now? If you don't go out and use up some energy, how can you go to bed early at night?"
……
Kuzuryuu Yaichi returned to his position in a daze. They were all killed, they were all killed!
After the age of twelve, Kuzuryuu Yaichi never experienced the pain of being completely slaughtered again. Even though his master Yokoo Nishikatsu defeated him with overwhelming force, he still failed to complete the complete slaughter.
However, today, before an ordinary invitational tournament, he was completely defeated by an amateur chess player of similar age, mediocre and unknown.
Jiutou Longya's hands were shaking when he played chess. He had a good memory and was constantly calculating and reviewing the game in his head, but he only felt a splitting headache and could not figure out the reason for his failure.
The calculation ability and chess intuition that Kuzuryuu Yaichi had always been proud of seemed to be completely useless in this game. The image of Yushan Kazuto yawning while playing chess and looking bored as he fought one against two people kept appearing in his mind like a nightmare.
"Can you get off faster?"
"Stop being in a daze!"
"I'm almost asleep."
"I'll go back to my room and take a nap, then come back to see if you've made your move."
"The old men and women in the park are more daring than you in making their moves!"
"In the time it takes you to play chess, I could go on a trip around the world."
……
It must be said that Yushan used a lot of trash talk when playing chess with others. Of course, his goal was not to attack the opponent's psychology, but just to urge Kuzuryuu Yaichi to make a move quickly.
Kuzuryuu Yaichi recalled what Yushan and others had said, and his eyes flickered.
[I am not good at fast chess, but he always urged me to make moves quickly. It was probably at this time that I fell into his trap.]
What Kuzuryuu Yaichi said was not wrong. Due to the urging of Yushan Kazuto, he made frequent mistakes. This was why in less than eighty moves of the game, Yushan Kazuto seized the opportunity and slaughtered his entire formation.
However, what Kuzuryu Yaichi did not consider was that even if he did not make any low-level mistakes, it would only be a matter of effort for Yushan Kazuto to kill him completely.
[He just took advantage of my weakness. In terms of real strength, I believe I am not inferior to him.]
[But who is he? Could he be a disciple secretly trained by Kiyotaki Kosuke? ]
Thinking of this, Kuzuryuu Yaichi became a little more wary of Yushan Kazuto. If Yushan Kazuto was a disciple of Kiyotaki Kosuke, the future of Kansai Chess Academy would probably be another battle of dragons and tigers.
[His true chess skills are probably close to those of Kuzuryuu Yaichi! ]
Kong Yinzi stared at Yushan and others, with some daydreams in her mind.
[If he is willing to join Master... well, at worst I can be his junior sister.]
At this time, Yushan Kazuto had no idea what the two were thinking. He was staring at the screen, bored: "It's downloading too slowly."
He felt that his opponent's move speed was too slow, almost as slow as a turtle, sometimes even taking five or six minutes to make a move. Yushan Kazuto could only choose the simplest and most brutal way, thirty-six moves, and he killed the game.
[There is still half an hour left. I don’t know if I can finish the game. 】
The time was far beyond Yushan Kazuto's estimation. He originally thought that even if it was slower, an hour would be enough to win three games in a row. He didn't expect that it had already been more than an hour and he had only won two games.
The third game was matched quite quickly, and it was another player who had won two consecutive games. Unfortunately, after meeting Yushan Kazuto, three consecutive wins became an unattainable chasm.
"Big brother, are you a professional chess player?" Hinazuru Ai asked curiously.
"No." Yushan Kazuto shook his head. He hadn't even joined the reward club, let alone become a professional chess player.
To be precise, Kazuto Hayama might not even be considered a shogi enthusiast. After all, he has no passion for shogi, otherwise he would not yawn so much while playing shogi.
"Hmm." Hinazuru Ai was a little disappointed.
If he is a professional chess player, he is qualified to recruit disciples. Watching Yushan Heren playing chess, Hinazuru Ai already had some thoughts of becoming his disciple, but unfortunately Yushan Heren was not qualified to accept disciples.
Touma Sanae and Eriri walked out of the corridor, their two golden twin ponytails instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Eiji Pingping, have we traveled to a parallel world, death?" Touma Sanae's eyes widened.
, her little face was full of confusion. When they came to the empty torii last night, they didn't look like this.
"I, I don't know. Come on, hurry up and get out." Looking at those people in strange clothes in the lobby, Ying Lili instinctively felt a little disgusted.
Kato Megumi raised her head and looked at Eriri and Touma Sanae with some confusion in her eyes. Hayama Kazuto was staring at the screen and didn't notice the two of them at all.
[Why is Sawamura-san here? ]
Without thinking too much, Kato Megumi still greeted him: "Sawamura-san?"
"Yin, Shadow Lady!" Toumori Sanae was so scared that she took a step back and fell to the ground.
"Shadow Lady?" Kato Megumi's tone was a little confused.
"No, no, no, what she meant was that she saw the shadow lady behind you..."
Kato Megumi suddenly felt a strange wind blowing behind her and she couldn't help but shiver.
"By the way, you are, yes, yes, that one..." Eriri was a little incoherent. The most important thing was that no matter what, she couldn't remember Kato Megumi's name.
"Kato Megumi."
"Okay, Kae-san."
Kato Megumi tilted her head and said nothing.
Yushan Kazuto then raised his head and looked forward, his eyes somewhat confused: "Eri, Sanae, why are you here?"
"Yu, the Great Demon King of Yushan!"
Chapter 83: Trial by Three Judges
Looking at the three girls sitting around him in the room like a three-person trial, Yushan Heren felt a headache. He had never seen such a situation before!
Not to mention, there was a Hinazuru Ai outside the door who smelled of blood, and a frozen Sora Ginko, so Yushan Kazuto felt that he was in danger of being torn into pieces by the five women.
Eriri and Sanae Toumori would also come to Hokkaido for a trip, which was something that Kazuto Hayama had expected. After all, if they didn't come this time, they would have free time only during the summer vacation. However, Kazuto Hayama never expected that the two of them would actually stay in the Sora Torii.
[Wasn't the grand prize a trip for two to a luxurious hot spring resort in Hokkaido? Why are we staying at the same hotel? 】
Yushan and others feel cheated. This black-hearted merchant, sofmap, has ulterior motives and is trying to kill me!
In fact, it’s not that sofmap is unscrupulous. The Sora Torii is already one of the most stylish hot spring hotels in Hokkaido. It’s not an exaggeration to call it luxurious.
The main reason is that letao is too conscientious. Relying on letao's strong network in Hokkaido, the trip was purchased at the most favorable price, which greatly improved the enjoyment by half a level.
"Great, what a coincidence." After holding it in for a few minutes, Yushan Heren finally spoke.
Yushan Kazuto lowered his head and examined the three women.
Kato Megumi's expression was calm, but her beautiful eyes were always staring straight at Yushan Kazuto. Eriri had a half-smile on her face, with her fangs hidden, and a look of disdain on her face that said "You keep making up stories, keep making them up". Touma Sanae was furious, holding her ponytail with both hands, ready to give Yushan Kazuto a thunder hammer hurricane at any time.
Although the three people had different expressions, the suffocating feeling that made them feel terrified from the bottom of their hearts was not much different. The three people with completely different personalities and characteristics actually synchronized their breath at this moment, as if they were about to transform into ultimate combined warriors in the next second.
"Yes, Yushan-san, what a coincidence." Kato Megumi's voice was as cold as a passerby, and even after the address, she added the word "classmate".
"Hayama Kazuto, didn't you say you don't like taking a hot spring bath in the summer?"
Eriri's voice was bitten heavily, and Yushan Kazuto suspected that even if a piece of steel was placed in Eriri's mouth, it would probably be pierced by her fangs.
Yushan Heren blinked. He did say that, and there was no lie in his words. Summer is already hot, and taking a hot spring bath, in Yushan Heren's opinion, is like adding fuel to the fire.
After all, before coming to Hokkaido, Hayama Kazuto had no idea that summer could be so comfortable!
In this regard, Hayama Kazuto only wants to say one thing about Hokkaido's summer hot springs: "It smells so good!"
Of course, it is impossible to confess. After confessing, lenient treatment is just a fantasy. The standard ending is to be killed by a hatchet.
"I really don't like hot springs in the summer. If Hokkaido hadn't strongly invited me to travel here, I wouldn't have come here."
"You, you, you, do you think I'm an idiot? Hokkaido is just a place, why did I invite you to travel here! Did the Governor of Hokkaido call you and ask you to come?" Eriri yelled.
Yushan Kazuto was speechless for a moment, Eriri's train of thought was still so straightforward. Besides, the governor of Hokkaido did invite him to Hokkaido to see the snow, and even personally accompanied him to stay in a hotel for four days. During those days, the snowstorm in Hokkaido was so strong that he couldn't go out at all.
[So Yushan doesn't like taking a hot spring bath in the summer? 】
Kato Megumi looked at Hayama Kazuto and seemed to understand why Hayama Kazuto was initially reluctant to travel to Hokkaido hot springs.
[According to Sawamura-san, it was she who invited Yushan to travel to Hokkaido, but Yushan refused. But why did Yushan accept my invitation? ]
Thinking of this, Kato Megumi's eyes softened a little as she looked at Yushan Kazuto.
"I think I can explain this question a little bit," Kato Megumi said.
Yushan Kazuto turned his head to look at Kato Megumi. He didn't expect that Kato Megumi would take the initiative to help him explain. Eriri and Toumori Sanae also turned their eyes to him, a little confused and a little unhappy.
"This trip to Hokkaido was won by Yushan and I through a lottery. Yushan said that Hokkaido strongly invited him to travel, maybe it was because of this reason." Kato Megumi explained slowly, but she did not tell the two that the lottery cake was a gift she gave to Yushan Kazuto.
Eriri and Toumori Sanae blinked and moved their mouths, wanting to refute but unable to find the words.
