Tsuchima Mai was still a little sleepy and closed her eyes. The three of them slept together. The only one awake, Yukinoshita Yukino, felt out of place.
After taking a shower, Yushan Kazuto walked out of the room. Looking at the scene on the sofa, he couldn't help but smile. In the end, Tsuchima Mai couldn't resist the erosion of sleepiness!
……
The breakfast that Yukinoshita Yukino brought from Chiba did not include the portion for Sanae Touma and Rikka Takanashi, so Kazuto Hayama had to come into the kitchen and cook another portion.
After all, looking at the appearances of Sanae Touma and Rikka Takanashi, they don't look like they have had breakfast, and Yushan Kazuto can't let them go hungry.
……
"Sanae, Xiaomi, Rikka, wake up."
Yushan Kazuto nudged the three people who were sleeping.
The three of them were stacked on top of each other, like three kittens sleeping together.
Looking at the sleeping postures of the three people, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but smile knowingly.
After Yushan Heren finished speaking, the three of them just twisted their bodies slightly and continued to sleep.
As a last resort, Yushan Heren had to sink his Qi into his Dantian, and then move it to his throat. A dull voice suddenly surged out of his throat like a tide: "Class is about to start!"
Rikka Takanashi was the first to wake up. As the only poor student among the three, she was most afraid of this sound.
"Apple, apple, banana, banana!"
A series of authentic Japanese English came out of Rikka Takanashi's mouth, causing Yukinoshita Yukino to frown slightly.
She has studied in Europe, so she is sensitive to the pronunciation of Japanese English. Of course, she just feels a little uncomfortable listening to it, and she does not have too much discrimination against Japanese English.
Even though she had lived in Europe for three years, it was still difficult for her to speak English in the authentic Oxford style, so she naturally would not demand too much from others.
However, Yushan Kazuto smiled and patted Takanashi Rikka's head: "It's time for breakfast. You don't know any English words, so you're still memorizing these basic words, right?"
Tsuchiya and Toumori Sanae also woke up one after another and stretched themselves. They were typical good students. Even if they fell asleep in class, the teacher would think that it was because they were too tired from studying the night before.
Therefore, regarding Yushan Heren's words, the two were just a little nervous, but did not have any stressful reaction.
After stretching, Toumori Sanae opened her eyes. Her eyes were a little dull, and it was obvious that she was not fully awake yet.
A tuft of bangs hung in front of Sanae Toumori's eyes, making her feel a little itchy. Sanae Toumori blew them gently, but unfortunately they still didn't blow away.
Yushan Heren gently reached out and helped her lift her hair away and hung it on her ears.
Domama looked at Yushan Kazuto's actions and suddenly came to her senses. She stood up abruptly and walked straight to the dining table.
"Are you hungry?" Yushan Kazuto walked to the dining table and looked at Tsuchima Mai, blinking his eyes.
Tsuchiya suddenly became a little nervous and nodded slightly.
To be honest, she was jealous, but she didn't want Yushan Kazuto to see it.
"Then you eat first, I'll go call Sagiri." Yushan Kazuto smiled and walked towards Izumi Sagiri's room.
Doma Mai blinked slightly, looked at Yushan Kazuto, then lowered her head and started eating.
Yukinoshita, Yukino and the other two also sat around the dining table and started eating.
……
Before I finished breakfast, the doorbell rang.
Several gazes instantly focused on Yushan Heren, making him feel uneasy and stand up.
"It should be Yinzi who came. I promised her yesterday that we would play chess together today." Yushanheren said angrily and walked towards the door.
Just as Yushan Kazuto expected, the person standing at the door was Sora Ginko, and next to her stood a girl with black hair and red eyes—Yakshagami Tenyi.
"Good morning, Yin Zi." Yu Shanheren waved with a smile, then lowered his head and looked at Yasha Shen Tian Yi: "Good morning, little Tian Yi."
"Good morning." Yaksha Shen Tianyi said a little shyly.
Chapter 932: Do you really like eating melon seeds that others peel?
Looking at Yasha God Tenyi walking in, Doma Yui instantly clenched her chopsticks.
Yesterday I was peeling melon seeds for Yushanheren, but today I came to Yushanheren. Does Yushanheren need someone to peel melon seeds when playing chess with Kong Yinzi?
Seeing the questioning look from Tsuchima, Yushan Kazuto could only smile awkwardly and turned to look at Sora Ginko and Yashagami Tenyi: "Have you two had breakfast?"
Yakshashin Tianyi nodded, and Kong Yinzi walked directly to the window and started setting up the chessboard.
Looking at Kong Yinzi's actions, Yushan Heren knew that she must have eaten as well.
"You go play chess with Yinzi first, I'll be over later." Yushan Heren said.
Yakshashin Tianyi walked towards Kong Yinzi, but her eyes lingered on the dining table from time to time. Although she had already had breakfast, the breakfast of the Yushan family looked a little too tempting.
Even though she was full, she still felt a little salivating. However, it was her first time in the Yushan family, and she had to maintain her image, so she forced herself to walk to Kong Yinzi's side.
Kong Yinzi had eaten it several times and was not surprised by it. It tasted really good and looked tempting, but Kong Yinzi was someone who had tasted sweet things after all, so the food's appeal to her naturally decreased.
After breakfast, Yushan Kazuto went into the kitchen to tidy up things, and Doma Mai followed him with a look of joy on her face.
"Scumbag senior." Tsuchima shouted in a low voice.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Yushan Kazuto asked while washing dishes.
"Won't you... explain it to me? Why did Ginko bring her here today? Do you like eating melon seeds peeled by others so much?" Domama lowered her body and a trembling sound came from her throat, which made Yushan Kazuto blink.
"Don't talk nonsense. Although the melon seeds peeled by others are indeed very fragrant, she came here to learn chess." Yushan Heren said.
"Learn chess? What kind of chess?" Tsuchima snorted.
"It's just shogi. She peeled melon seeds for me yesterday. In return, I have to teach her how to play chess." Yushan Kazuto shrugged.
"Scumbag, pervert, loli control!" Domama cursed softly.
"Hey, hey, if you slander me again, I will call the police!" Yushan Heren said.
"Call the police, and they will arrest loli control people first!" Doma Mai stuck out her tongue and said nonchalantly.
"Hurry up and go out for the study session. Last week's study session only lasted for an hour." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
When Doma Mai thought of the study session last week, she blushed. It started at 11 o'clock and ended at lunch time. She had planned to continue in the afternoon, but ended up going out, so the study session that day ended in just an hour.
"Wait until I finish washing the dishes." Domama pouted and said.
Yushan Kazuto chuckled, "Then I'll ask you to rinse the remaining bowls. I'll go get some snacks and check on Rikka's progress."
Tsuchiya blinked slightly and nodded.
……
After placing the drinks and snacks on the table, Kazuto Hayama walked towards Rikka Takanashi who had already started learning.
Judging from Rikka Takanashi's expression, she is still quite hardworking, but the way she looks at the information is as if she is looking at an enemy, with bared teeth and a sad face.
Yushan Kazuto took a closer look and saw that Rikka Takanashi had encountered a difficult problem and pointed gently at the information.
A hidden condition that was overlooked by Rikka Takanashi suddenly jumped out, and the thoughts in Rikka Takanashi's mind seemed to be connected to the Internet, and became much smoother. The solution to the problem kept emerging in Rikka Takanashi's mind.
"We have completed more than 30% of the work, which is a pretty good efficiency. But we still have to work harder. It's already been two weeks." Yushan Heren said.
Last week, Rikka Takanashi had barely completed 10%, but now she has completed more than 30%. This week's completion rate is twice as high as last week, but Kazuto Yuyama still feels a little unsatisfied.
At this rate, it would take at least another three weeks to complete all the exercises.
It is already February, and in three weeks, it will be the end of February. The whole month of March may not be enough for subsequent consolidation and improvement.
Kazuto Hayama still hopes that Rikka Takanashi can finish the game faster.
Rikka Takanashi blushed a little. She had actually tried very hard, but there was still some gap between her and Yushan Kazuto's requirements.
However, after these days, she felt that she was becoming more and more adept at doing the exercises later on, and with the help of Tsuchima Mai and Toumori Sanae, she felt that she still had a chance to speed up her work again.
Seeing Rikka Takanashi completing the difficult problem with a happy expression on her face, Yushan and Renren smiled and walked to the sides of Sora Ginko and Yashagami Teni.
The two were playing chess, but it was obvious that Yaksha Shen Tianyi was at a complete disadvantage and was completely unable to compete with Kong Yinzi.
One of the terrifying things about the Dragon Slaying Siege is that it cannot be countered.
Of course, this inability to counter is also relative. People with superb chess skills can rely on their chess skills to forcibly reverse the situation. People like Yushan Kazuto who are very familiar with Tulongwei also know how to capture the city in advance and destroy Tulongwei.
However, these were things that were out of reach for Yaksha Shen Tianyi. She was completely powerless to fight back against Kong Yinzi.
Seeing the frown on Yaksha Shen Tianyi's face, Yushan Heren sighed lightly, fixed his eyes on the chessboard, and began to work backwards based on the formation.
This kind of reverse deduction may not be completely accurate. After all, the two have been playing for a long time, and Yushan Heren does not know whether there were any mistakes or changes in the middle.
However, even though it is impossible to deduce the original chess moves, it is not difficult to deduce the intentions of the two players.
Both of them are good at chess, and when playing chess, they will definitely look three steps ahead, or even ten steps ahead, before making the next move. In this way, it should not be a problem to calculate the intentions of both players.
[Is that so? I failed to use the Dragon Slaying Technique and was invaded by Silver in advance.]
[No wonder I think Yin Zi's Dragon Slaying Circle is not stable. He destroyed the opponent's Dragon Slaying Circle in the early stage, causing some chess pieces to advance recklessly.]
With Yushan Heren's chess skills, he can certainly see the key to breaking the game. Yashashin Tianyi is not without the ability to fight.
However, in the eyes of Yaksha God Tianyi, this game of chess is already beyond redemption.
After thinking for more than ten minutes, Yaksha Shen Tianyi finally chose to resign and admit defeat. Kong Yinzi nodded slightly and started to tidy up the chessboard.
Yushan Heren looked at Yasha Shen Tianyi: "Tianyi, are you also learning Tulongwei?"
Yaksha Shen Tianyi blinked and nodded: "It's not proficient enough yet."
Although she failed to set up the Dragon Slaying Formation in this game, she did not deny the fact.
Yushan Kazuto blinked, thinking.
Chapter 933: Yaksha God Tianyi's chess piece
"Yin Zi, have another fight with Tian Yi. This time, don't destroy her Dragon Slaying Encirclement in advance. I want to see to what extent she has mastered it." Yu Shanhe said.
A bystander sees more clearly. If Yushan Kazuto plays chess with Yakshashin Tianyi himself, the effect may not be better than watching Kong Ginko and Yakshashin Tianyi play chess.
Moreover, if he watches from the side, Yushan Heren will also be able to see some of Kong Yinzi's problems, which is killing two birds with one stone.
The two quickly set up the chessboard and started playing again.
Judging from the layout, the Yaksha God's Heavenly Clothes is relatively stable, but the word "stable" can be both positive and negative.
Being steady can be said to mean that Yaksha God Tianyi is cautious in every step and will not rush into anything without any effort. However, it can also be said that the opponent does not have the courage to make progress and is slow and inefficient when playing chess.
From Yushan Heren's perspective, Yashashin Tianyi's layout is too complicated. Complicated means meticulous, but also means easy to counter.
As long as you can see through Yaksha Shen Tianyi's thoughts when she is making her plan, you can easily restrict her.
This is what Kong Yinzi did in the previous game, which resulted in Yaksha Shen Tianyi being unable to successfully set up the Dragon Slaying Encirclement until the end of the game.
However, in this round, since Yushan and others had told him not to disrupt Yaksha Shen Tianyi's dragon-slaying siege in advance, Kong Yinzi did not take action, but just made his own arrangements.
The two sides played until the 54th move, when Yashashin Tianyi completed his layout. Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink as he watched.
Just the layout required twenty-seven moves, and although it was still relatively solid, if it was Yushan Kazuto playing against her, she would have been defeated within twenty moves.
With the same twenty-seven moves, Kong Yinzi's layout was faster, and targeted adjustments had been made now. Even if Yaksha Shen Tianyi had already set up the Dragon Slaying Encirclement, Kong Yinzi's layout would only be more complete than hers.
The two sides entered the middle game of a stalemate. At first, Yasha Shen Tianyi was still able to fight against Kong Yinzi, but after only five or six moves, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Kong Yinzi's seemingly idle move killed the possibility of a battle.
Yaksha Shen Tianyi had no choice but to lower his head: "I lost."
Although there is nothing shameful in losing to Kong Yinzi, as the only female professional chess player at present, Kong Yinzi has mastered the Dragon Slaying Guard and the Yaksha God's Heavenly Clothes, but it is also normal for her.
But Yaksha Shen Tianyi still felt a little unwilling in her heart. She wanted to win. No matter who her opponent was, she wanted to win the game.
Seeing Kong Yinzi preparing to sort out the chessboard, Yushan Heren breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Wait a moment, Yinzi, can you restore the chessboard to the time of the fifty-fourth move?"
"Fifty-four moves?" Kong Yinzi looked at Yushan and others, somewhat confused.
"That's right, when Tianyi had just completed his layout." Yushan Heren smiled.
Kong Yinzi nodded. Reviewing the game is a compulsory course for every chess player. It was naturally no problem for her to just restore the chess pieces to the previous few moves.
Yushan Heren looked at Yasha Shen Tianyi again: "Tianyi, please give me a seat."
Yashashin Tenyi blinked, moved aside, and left the chess position to Yushan Kazuto.
Yushan and Ren sat down with a smile and looked at Kong Yinzi: "Yinzi, please. Well, a simple reminder before you make your move, on the fifty-fifth move, your choice is not the best choice."
Kong Yinzi glanced at Yushan Heren. No wonder Yushan Heren asked her to recover directly to the 54th move. Did she make a mistake at the beginning of the mid-game stranglehold?
