I am really a language teacher

Although Go is not a very popular sport in the Kingdom of Aurora, the skill of Go is quite popular among high-level leaders. Therefore, the Aurora Chess Academy is located in an excellent location, located in the garden of a former royal palace.In Yanjing, a place where every inch of land is precious, the land price of Aurora Chess Academy alone is worth billions, not to mention the artistic value and historical value of the garden itself.

The entire chess academy is divided into four parts. The front yard is the administrative area of ​​the chess academy, including the administrative unit of the chess academy and the offices of "Go Weekly" and "Aurora Go Weekly".The east garden is the dormitory for professional chess players, the west garden is the dormitory for chess students who are trained in the chess academy, and the backyard is the chess field.It is precisely because Zhendan Chess Academy covers a large area that it can be regarded as a landmark in Yanjing.

Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu arrived at the Chess Academy on Sunday. At this time, the staff in charge of the entry test were already receiving players from all over the country.Because Jiangnan Province is not a big Go province, there are only five places in the end.And because they didn't like wild people like Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu, they stayed in the guest house near the Qiyuan.Therefore, when everyone was checking the game instructions and understanding the situation, Sun Ping did not maintain good communication with the chess players on the Jiangnan side. Anyway, we may not have the opportunity to meet again in the future.

After Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu learned about their matchup, they drove directly to the hotel to have a rest. At this time, the Chess Institute was studying the situation of the entry test.The chess institutes in various provinces have sent some characteristic matches in the competition to the chess institutes for the reference of the chess institutes.And Sun Ping's game is naturally the key recommendation of the Jiangnan Provincial Chess Academy, but because the chess academy does not value the Go level of Jiangnan Province, they missed the best opportunity to know Sun Ping.

On Monday, Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu officially appeared in the game field.The first player who played against Sun Ping today was a chess player from Donghai City. Although he looked down on Sun Ping, his tone was quite peaceful.Perhaps in his opinion, a player like Sun Ping can be defeated in only ten minutes.However, Sun Ping still started with this strange Chinese style of time and space, and then his schedule avalanche in the middle of the game, and finally forced the East China Sea chess player to lose two consecutive games. The result goes to the second round.In the second round of the game in the afternoon, no one put pressure on Sun Ping, and Sun Ping still won the two games easily.Sun Ping's high-profile results on the first day of the competition also attracted the attention of some people, but unfortunately they thought it was just a flash in the pan, so no one cared about Sun Ping's such a wonderful performance.

Tuesday is the final day of the knockout rounds, and the winners will have a day off on Wednesday, while the losers will have to participate in Wednesday's resurrection battle.In the end, the winners of Tuesday and Wednesday will start a two-day round-robin competition system on Thursday, and the final ten players who can enter the stage will be determined by the level of points.Although the record on the first day was quite gratifying, Sun Ping is not the kind of person who is easily proud.At the same time, Sun Ping also warned Ma Mingyu not to underestimate the players on the second day, because if he carelessly loses Jingzhou in the second day's game, the loss outweighs the gain.Although Sun Ping believed that Ma Mingyu should be able to break through the siege in the resurrection battle of the defeated team, this would mean one less day of rest than the winner group.What's more, in the loser group, everyone will perform supernormally, which requires more physical and mental energy.Under Sun Ping's reminder, Ma Mingyu nodded seriously.

"Yo, it turns out that you are the master who participated in the entrance examination at the same time as the legendary master and apprentice of our class?" Perhaps because of the conversation between Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu, the person who played against Sun Ping today smiled proudly. "My masters are all 50-year-old chess players, how about you? Hehe, at such an age, you are still competing with us little kids for the qualification of the first stage. Are you ashamed?"

"I heard that there is a priority, and there is a specialization in art. My child, I just learned chess a little late, but it doesn't mean that I am bad at chess." Sun Ping smiled flatly.For such ignorant children, the last resort is to defeat them in the chess game.And Sun Ping didn't let the water out in the game, it was still an oppressive Chinese-style layout, and then the opponent fell into a continuous game.But when the opponent was at a loss, Sun Ping's avalanche had already become a trend.Under the almost merciless strangulation of Sun Ping's avalanche, the child who looked down on Sun Ping was finally forced to surrender.After the change of sons, Sun Ping was in a state of coping although he was holding white.However, the ultimate Go moves of the modern Cathay Kingdom are obviously not as good as those on the Earth plane. Even though Sun Ping did not use the big avalanche formula this time, the opponent in front of him was still forced to make a move after less than 10 minutes of entanglement.Finally, Sun Ping smiled and said, "I told you, I'm not bad at chess."

After Sun Ping cleaned up the chessboard, he found that Ma Mingyu was even better at playing than him.It is rare for Ma Mingyu to take the initiative to say: "The kid who played chess with me today was killed by me in the first game and cried. Later, he couldn't play no matter what, so the referee had to announce that he abstained. I won without a fight and entered the afternoon match." After speaking, Ma Mingyu shrugged.

Sun Ping didn't speak, maybe it was because of Ma Mingyu's temperament, in fact, Ma Mingyu's chess style was stronger than Sun Ping's.Moreover, Ma Mingyu was not only bold but also tricky in the use of killer moves.However, Sun Ping felt that Ma Mingyu was still young, and his arrogance in chess was in line with his young man's temperament, so Sun Ping did not stop him.It's just that when Sun Ping is playing chess with Ma Mingyu, Sun Ping will still guide Ma Mingyu to comprehend the "Tao" on the chessboard, so that his heart can be more peaceful.

"Ms. Sun, what you said, if I can directly enter the round robin as the winner this time, you have to take me to eat seafood." Ma Mingyu suddenly reminded.After Sun Ping heard about it, he smiled and nodded to show that he hadn't forgotten it.Although Yanjing is not a place suitable for eating seafood, for Ma Mingyu, this is a rare opportunity for him to eat seafood, so he doesn't mind.

In the afternoon, there were several people standing behind Sun Ping.These few people are big chess players of the Zhendan Chess Academy, and they have been attracted by Sun Ping's seemingly tricky but upright chess style.Sun Ping's chess style is still the mainstream chess style of this plane, which is peaceful but does not lose the fierceness of the earth plane.It's just that Sun Ping seldom uses intrigue to deal with opponents on the chessboard. His layout and formula are quite gentlemanly.If you insist on getting involved, then Sun Ping doesn't mind taking his head.The opponent in the afternoon game was still too weak in chess, and Sun Ping continued to enter Thursday's round-robin match with two mid-game wins within an hour.And the few big chess players who stood behind him and watched the chess also left when Sun Ping's overall situation was settled, and the rest were not worth watching.

"What do you think of the chess style of this pair of masters and apprentices from Jiangnan Province?" asked the big chess player in the middle, "We play Go after the way of a sage, while he pursues the style of a king who dominates the world, and his disciple It is more direct, and it is completely the style of dominating the martial arts. But I must also admit that they are the tomorrow of competitive Go."

"You and I play chess like a gentleman talking in hand. That gentleman plays chess like a master wielding a sword. The sword is fierce but leaves room everywhere. Unless you provoke him, his sword will not kill everything. As for His disciple is completely an assassin. If you don't pay attention to the dagger in your hand, you will be killed." Another great chess player commented.

"Let's observe for a while longer. After all, their chess strength has far surpassed this approved chess player. After they enter the big hands and the title match, let us see their abilities." Another person finally blocked coffin conclusion.

Sure enough, Ma Mingyu did not disappoint Sun Ping, and still qualified for Thursday's round robin after winning two rounds.So Sun Ping deliberately took Ma Mingyu to a Cantonese restaurant with a Michelin-starred chef, and ordered a lot of seafood dishes for Ma Mingyu to try. The taste of this Cantonese restaurant is very authentic, so the dishes are all delicious.You must know that the northerners have a heavy mouth, and Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu couldn't stand the food these few days.Fortunately, today's Cantonese cuisine is still light, and the two of them ate quite happily.

Because there was no game on Wednesday, both Sun Ping and Ma Mingyu slept in.After lunch, Sun Ping took Ma Mingyu to relax in the swimming pool.Swimming is considered to be aerobic exercise with a large amount of exercise in a short period of time, which is very helpful for promoting metabolism.In the past two days, I used my brain a lot, which caused a lot of waste to accumulate in my body. Swimming allows my body to do a proactive and thorough cleansing.After being tired from swimming, Sun Ping took Ma Mingyu to the restaurant here for an afternoon tea.The delicious snacks and rich tea revived their tired bodies. After a short rest, Sun Ping arranged for Ma Mingyu to have an aromatherapy spa with him.This time, Sun Ping chose the spa for exhaustion and refreshment. The essential oils of mint, lemon and sage made Sun Ping feel that his body was in a special condition, and at the same time, his brain felt as comfortable as after taking a bath.

The round-robin competition is more intensive than the knockout competition. In addition to testing everyone's resistance to pressure, it also tests everyone's on-the-spot adaptability.So Sun Ping didn't arrange a game after dinner, but took Ma Mingyu for a walk in the park behind the hotel, then went back to his room to take a shower and get ready for bed.Lying on the bed, Ma Mingyu suddenly asked: "Mr. Sun, will you still play Go in the future?"

"I'm really not sure." Sun Ping didn't intend to deceive the children. "The teacher actually has a lot of things on his hands. Maybe he won't be able to play chess after joining a few rounds of big hands to ensure points after entering the stage. The title battle What, the teacher is not very interested. And other honors are not of much use to the teacher. On the contrary, if you really want to make a difference in the chess world, the title is the basic guarantee to ensure your right to speak, and the trophy It is the best shield to protect you."

Although Sun Ping felt that it might not be good to show children the dark side of the real society too early, he still couldn't let the children live in a muddleheaded way.Ma Mingyu's character flaws make it difficult for him to have an extraordinary emotional intelligence, but Zhendan country is a society of human feelings.So Sun Ping only hoped that Ma Mingyu would have enough titles so that his position in the chess world would be unshakable.And those trophies can protect him from being discredited by some people, because for this country, victory and honor mean everything.

On Thursday, the weather in Yanjing was still fine.Because this plane is quite strict about the protection of Yanjing's ancient buildings, the city of Yanjing is antique and has very distinctive urban characteristics.The surrounding greenery also makes Yanjing's sky blue, and people's mood will not be cloudy.
