The other four sisters nodded hastily, not daring to stay there any longer—it was too embarrassing!
……
On the other side.
Yukino Yukinoshita glanced in the direction the five Nakano sisters had left, pursed her thin lips, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her delicate and lovely face.
A few minutes later, she also turned and left the place.
Regarding her relationship with Luo Chen, she felt she needed to think it over carefully. She still felt a strange mix of inexplicable difficulty accepting it and a peculiar reluctance to let go...
……
"Chenjun~!"
"Awesome!!"
Backstage, after Luo Chen returned to the dressing room, Gong Yuhan Manzhi exclaimed in surprise and pounced on him, clinging to him like an octopus and cheering.
"You defeated Kyoto's number one 8-dan player in just 24 moves, Tatsuki! You're amazing! He's the number one 8-dan player in Kyoto!"
Seeing this scene, Aoyama Nanami blushed slightly and awkwardly turned her head away, kneeling on the tatami with her hands on her knees, seemingly nervous about something inexplicable.
"Alright, this is just a natural thing, what's there to get excited about? Come down here." Luo Chen patted Gong Yufan Wanzhi's waist and said.
"Hmm~, okay, I knew Chen-kun was the best, hehe~" Gong Gohan Manzhi innocently raised his smiling face.
Despite having the face of a mature and virtuous young lady, she smiles so innocently and radiantly, like a pure young girl.
Luo Chen shook his head, thinking to himself, "Wan Zhi is really versatile. Of course, if you consider that this girl is actually quite cunning..."
It's alright now, it's alright now.
A cunning young lady like her, if she wants to portray several different personalities, isn't that a piece of cake?
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
There was a knock on the door outside.
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, turned around, and went out to open the door.
"Haha! Young master, that was truly spectacular."
Before anyone could see Kento Itoya, his loud laughter rang out first.
Upon hearing that there might be outsiders, Aoyama Nanami hurriedly stood up again and politely played the role of a maid/waitress.
Yugohana Manchi narrowed her beautiful eyes, secretly glancing at Aoyama Nanami, thinking to herself, "I've put on such a performance, and it seems that Miss Nanami is quite naive. She probably won't fall for Tatsu-kun anymore, right?... Sora Ginko, you idiot! When we get back to Adachi Ward, you'd better thank me properly, otherwise things will be in chaos around Tatsu-kun!"
"Itoya-senpai."
At the entrance, Luo Chen greeted Itoya Kento politely. Seeing that there was more than one person outside, he asked in surprise, "Itoya-senpai, who are these two...?"
"Haha, we're all old friends. You should have heard of us. This is Yu Guitou Yao, and this one? Jiu Daijue." Itoya Kento introduced them with a smile.
Two 9A lenses!
The contemporary chess master and the contemporary wise king!
Luo Chen was taken aback.
Inside the room, Gong Yufan Manzhi instantly became reserved, hurriedly standing up. In front of his seniors, he showed the helplessness often seen in juniors, not knowing what to say. Then, he could only look pitifully at Luo Chen and the three seniors as they communicated.
"Luo Chen, 8th Dan, hehe, I've long admired your name. During the training conference, I kept hearing Ba Yi mention you, praising you endlessly. Meeting you today, I can see you are indeed extraordinary." Yu Gui Tou Yao chuckled as he sized up Luo Chen.
Jiu Daijue was thin and had a very gaunt face. Although he was only 40 years old, he looked like he was in his fifties.
Following behind Yu Guitouyao, Jiu Daijue looked Luo Chen up and down with a strange expression and said with a smile, "You're a bit odd, kid."
Luo Chen cupped his hands in greeting and greeted the two giants of the Nine A Group.
However, the group didn't say anything more, and it seemed that Yu Guitouyao and Jiu Daijue had only come to see him.
Kento Itoya then produced a contract transfer document and said with a smile, "The bet we made at the banquet earlier was won by Brother Luo Chen. He killed Uchimura 24 times, with exquisite skill and dazzling skill, and received cheers from the audience. You can probably sit on the throne of the undisputed eighth-dan chief of this era!"
"You're too kind, Itoya-senpai. I was just lucky." Luo Chen shrugged, maintaining the proper humility.
"is it?"
Kento Itoya smiled mysteriously, and as he watched Luo Chen bend down to sign his name, he subtly reminded him, "However, your performance this time has really surprised Shinobu and Meijin quite a bit. Now, you're on their kill list."
Luo Chen signed his name, kept one copy for himself, and handed another copy to Itoya Kento. The transfer contract was officially in effect. He smiled and said, "I couldn't be happier."
"Ouch~!"
For some inexplicable reason, Kento Itoya, Yo Okito, and Kakuzuki Hato exchanged a glance, feeling a chill run down their spines.
For some reason, as fellow members of the 9A Group, they even had a slight urge to start mourning for the famous Yuzuru Hanyu and Shinobu Taishi ahead of time!
Especially when they noticed that Luo Chen's eyes were pure and calm, and his smile was filled with an inscrutable meaning... the three of them all thought of the same thing.
This kid's been hiding his true abilities! Beg!
Chapter 321 If Master wins, then Love will win too!
After the three 3A giants left, Luo Chen waved and said, "Let's go, Magic: The Gathering, we're going home too."
"Ah."
Yugomi Machi, who was already standing, dusted herself off and quickly followed to the door. Before leaving, she turned back and invited, "Miss Nanami, please come along too."
"Eh?" Aoyama Nanami hurriedly shook her head and waved her hand, saying, "No, no, my work isn't finished yet."
"It's okay, I'll talk to the organizers and ask them to make you my personal waiter. Maybe you can even get a raise that way," Luo Chen said with a smile.
"But……"
Aoyama Nanami hesitated.
Grit your teeth!
"Alright! Thank you, young master!" Aoyama Nanami, the workaholic, finally couldn't resist the temptation of the high salary. He nodded and agreed, and quickly followed to the door to join Luo Chen's group.
……
...
Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.
Early in the morning, Ms. Murasame and Ms. Kuruno Yoshitsune led the elementary school students of the JS Research Institute to this place.
The opening match of the Kurashiki Touka Tournament will be held today at the Kieisha in Chiyoda!
In this match, only Ai Hinatsuru participated from the Adachi Ward JS Research Institute.
Yasha-gami Ten'i had originally planned to participate with Hinatsuru Ai, but a couple of days ago, she suddenly said that something had come up at home and that she hadn't been to the JS Research Institute for a long time.
Naturally, the registration for the Kurashiki wisteria flower contest was put on hold, leaving only Hinatsuru Ai as the participant.
The students from the JS research group were sitting in the lounge, showing no signs of tension or anxiety even though the competition was about to begin.
On the contrary, they watched the first round of the Kyoto Meijin Tournament live together, and were then completely stunned by Luo Chen's victory over Kyoto's 24-dan number one player.
"Young Master, you're as strong as ever." Kuruno Yoshitsune couldn't help but click his tongue repeatedly, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Just a few months ago, they had no idea that Luo Chen possessed such skill. They even thought that Luo Chen couldn't play chess at all, or if he could, he was mediocre.
However, ever since his stunning victory, Luo Chen has taken big steps with each one, yet each step has been incredibly steady.
Since his debut, he has never been defeated!
It can be said that he rose rapidly through the ranks.
Now he has defeated and leveled the number one 8-dan player in Kansai, especially at the age of 24, a miracle.
amazing!!
Kuruno Yoshitsune couldn't help but secretly look forward to it, estimating that it wouldn't be long before the young master would be able to truly reach the ninth dan!
Perhaps the opportunity lies in this Kyoto Meijin Tournament!
If he wins and takes first place, Luo Chen will directly win the title of "Celebrity" and the top honor of "Nine Dan A"!
After all, if Shinobu Taishi suffers a defeat after this battle, he will lose his A-level rating and fall from the pedestal of the Nine A giants.
Murasame-sensei adjusted his glasses and smiled faintly: "Kuruno-sensei, as I know the young master, there's no need to worry. He's hiding a lot more."
"Really?" Kuruno Yoshitsune became even more expectant, and without even thinking, he immediately trusted Murasame-sensei's words.
Behind them, several elementary school students, led by Ai Hinatsuru, were cheering and celebrating.
"Master is awesome!!"
"Master Ai is amazing!"
"President, that's amazing."
"Xia, Xia Luo also wants to love her master..."
Teacher Murasame turned around and stopped her, saying, "Alright, that's enough of the commotion. Let's quiet down. Miss Ai, the young master has secured his first victory in Kyoto. Although I don't want to put pressure on you, as the young master's disciple, you..."
"I know, Murasame-sensei, Ai will definitely win!" Hinatsuru Ai's two little feet, clad in white socks, were firmly planted on the ground as she clenched her little fists to cheer herself on.
"Ah."
Teacher Murasame nodded gently and said, "After you achieve your initial success, we'll call the young master and tell him the good news."
