Sakari Sumito nodded slowly and sat back down. "I wonder if Tamayo remembers what I mentioned before, that Luo Chen, a fourth-dan player, might suffer a backlash for improperly using the 'corner exchange' tactic?"
“Of course.” Shiro Tsubaki nodded repeatedly.
"Actually, I once had an in-depth discussion with Mr. Yu Guitou about the advantages and disadvantages of the 'corner exchange' tactic," said Sumito Sakari.
Mr. Yu Guitou!
When Sakari Sumito mentions this name, almost everyone's mind instantly conjures up that dazzling 9A!
Yu Tou Yao, a 9-dan A-rank Go player known as the "Absolute Master"!
Current holder of the title of "Chess Saint".
One of the top figures in Japanese shogi!
Shikaji Tamayo quickly said, "Please continue."
Sakari Sumito explained softly: "The 'corner exchange' tactic is usually initiated by the player who goes first, in order to continuously accumulate the initiative and offensive advantage."
As is well known, the corner piece is extremely adept at defense.
The "corner exchange" tactic, which involves eliminating the opponent's corner at the start, ensures that one's own strategy will be unstoppable, but at the same time, it will also leave oneself with significant disadvantages.
Because the opponent's corner is gone, your own corner is also gone! When attacking, you often need to put in twice the effort and also pay attention to defense.
In other words, when playing against high-level players, you have to make both offensive and defensive judgments simultaneously, which is an incredibly demanding mental strain.
Lu Lutingzhu was surprised; she had no idea there was such a profound meaning behind it.
Many chess fans at the scene showed expressions of "I see" and delight at the discovery.
Lu Luting Zhudai hurriedly asked, "So, does that mean the Nine-Headed Dragon King was always fighting this hard when using the 'Horn Exchange' tactic?"
“That’s not the case.” Sakari Sumito shook his head and explained, “Because of the Xiang Gua tactic, he doesn’t need to do that! The Xiang Gua, which integrates offense and defense, is, to some extent, almost a natural match for ‘Dui Jiao’!”
Shikaji Tamayo asked in confusion, "Lady Kosaka just said that the Nine-Headed Dragon King, on top of that, also benefited from the assistance of his innate talent?"
“Of course.” Sakari Sumito said noncommittally, “Even if the combination of Xiang Gua and ‘Dui Jiao’ is perfect, it still requires a very high level of judgment. So, Mr. Yu Guitou and I roughly estimated that Bayi’s judgment ability had probably reached the level of Senju or higher!”
hiss! ! !
Suddenly, the only sound in the Chess Club seemed to be gasping for breath.
More than a thousand hands.
Is this fucking a monster?
As expected of the genius 9-headed dragon.
After recovering from her initial shock, Shikaji Tamayo finally regained her composure and asked, "So, does this mean that Lord Sakari also meant that without using the 'Hanging' tactic, the success of the 'Crossing Horn' tactic requires the Nine-Headed Dragon King to be more than twice as powerful?"
“That’s the problem,” Sakari Sumito said with a wry smile. “Everyone knows how strong Yaichi is. If someone is more than twice as strong as Yaichi, does that mean they’re going to rival President Gekko?”
"Ha ha!"
"How is that possible?"
"No matter what, it's just too far-fetched to say that he's going to rival President Moonlight."
Many people were amused by Sakari Sumito's "cold joke," simply because Gekko Seisei's image as the "true god of the Go world" was already deeply ingrained in people's minds.
Even Shikaro Tamayo couldn't help but chuckle.
Sakari Sumito shrugged and said, "Look, no one believes it, which is why I'm so concerned about how Luo Chen, a fourth-dan player, managed to do it."
"Lady Sakari, perhaps it's because Luo Chenjun just had a stroke of luck?" Shikaji Tamayo casually thought of a possibility.
However, she had barely finished speaking when...
"eat!"
"Flying Fragrance Falls"
Luo Chen's 93rd move was a blitzkrieg, a brutal attack that once again secured a victory!
Lu Luting Zhudai's cute little face froze instantly, and she had already mentally cursed Luo Chen a thousand times: Ugh!! What a coincidence! How annoying!
Sakari Sumito shrugged, seemingly making a self-deprecating remark: "Oh dear, I've been proven wrong again. Really."

P.S.: It's been a while since I posted any pictures. Here's a picture of silver to start things off, and may my silver increase!
Chapter 135 "Slaughterground"! Massacre!!!
Inside the chess room.
Since Luo Chen won his second decisive move, Shen Guo Bu Meng's attitude has changed.
He slowly lowered the hand that had been pressing on his right eye.
The golden pupils were revealed, quite different from the gray-blue of the left eye, yet similar in some ways, because both heterochromatic pupils revealed a solemn color.
Once can be considered an accident, but what if it happens twice?
Ha~!
"As expected of my formidable rival."
"Although I don't know how you did it, it's no easy task to make a Silver Paladin like us break his sword."
As Kamiya Ayumu said this, her brain started working at high speed.
He completely regarded Luo Chen as an opponent of the same level, or even a higher level! He placed Luo Chen on the same level as Kuzuryu Yaichi!
In this way, we will have to give it our all!
"The Ultimate Divine Pot Style"
As the opponent with the highest winning percentage in the current Japanese Go world, Ayumu Kamina is certainly not undeserving of his reputation. The claim that he is "unworthy of his reputation" should be viewed from the opposite perspective.
Because his true strength has always exceeded his rank and title!
The Shinka-ryu style, which he developed together with his teacher Shakado Rina, is a powerful tactic that is in no way inferior to any known style.
Originating from his past defeat to Yaichi Kuzuryu, Ayumu Shinnabe painstakingly studied and perfected the Shinnabe style.
It was originally intended to get revenge in the [Dragon King Challenge].
Unexpectedly, it will have to be used ahead of schedule.
"The ultimate swordsmanship that cuts through darkness! A Silver Paladin's honor and faith are staked on! The Undefeated Divine Cauldron!"
"Come! Play the requiem!"
Snapped!
When the storm vortex in Kamiya Ayumu's eyes subsided, his golden pupil, whether it was an illusion or not, seemed to be faintly emitting a golden light!
With the chess pieces settled, a smile tinged with unwavering confidence appeared on Kamiya Ayumu's face!
"Hmm? It's a little different from before?"
Luo Chen glanced at Shen Guobu Meng out of the corner of his eye, his words carrying a double meaning. He was saying that Shen Guobu Meng was different from before, and that her chess style was completely different from before!
But no harm.
He can still use the ferocious offensive tactics that are continued by the "corner exchange" to wipe out everything!
This is not something that Ayumu Kamiya could achieve with just a few simple changes.
After all, he has a tremendous advantage! ...A second brain dimension!!
In other words, when he is multitasking, he can make offensive judgments in the main brain and defensive judgments in the second brain dimension!
Although this might consume a little more energy, it would be enough. He didn't think that with Kamiya Ayumu's abilities, he could sustain this high-intensity attack for too long.
So, let's continue!
Luo Chen twisted the chess piece between his hands, then flicked his index finger to turn it over.
The heartland is changing!
upgrade:
Dragon King!!
……
"It's different now."
"Oh, I mean, Bu Mengjun."
From the commentary booth, Lu Lutingzhu said.
"It's different now. You can tell that both sides are really taking this seriously," said Sumito Sakari with great interest.
This game truly gave him a great surprise.
Luo Chen's mysterious "Duijiao" attack method was astonishing, and even Shen Guo Bu Meng had become much stronger than before.
This wave of "divine pot" tactics is clearly an enhanced version of the previous ones!
The shogi enthusiasts in the Go-ei Club were speechless. Some of them who had come together looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Hey! What's going on?
