I'm Really a Superstar Chapter 1106

In the study.

Old Wu came in with a cup of tea.

Zhang Ye was still staring at the computer screen.

"Have some tea."

"Oh, thanks."

"Has the game begun yet?"

"We'll be starting soon, haha."

"OK. Let's see just how good my boyfriend is at Go."

Old Wu pulled a chair over and sat down.

Zhang Ye laughed and said, "I'm actually not that good. Your dad's still pretty good. When I started playing him, I didn't need to put in much effort at all. But the more we played, the better he became. It was as though his skill had been restored to how good he was in the past. At times, I even had to get serious. Otherwise, I would really have been beaten by him."

"Of course. My dad once stood at the top."

"But I'm not bad either. Eh, it's starting. Hur hur, watch how I play!"

"You can only win against my dad because his skills have regressed a lot. If you went against active 4th or 5th dan pros, it would be very difficult for you to win."

"I know that."

Zhang Ye deeply believed that as well. He actually did not even know how good he was. All he knew was that he had maxed out his Lottery Draw (One)'s Go skill, and added another 100 million Reputation Points' worth of the Lottery Draw (Two) Go skill experience books on top of that. From the looks of it, the Go players of this world seemed to be really strong. If a professional Go player whose play had regressed by that much since his retirement 20 years ago was still this strong at Go, then Zhang Ye felt that what Old Wu had said was correct when she mentioned that he could only win against her father. But it was enough if he could beat him. Right from the beginning, this fellow was just aiming for Wu Changhe anyway.

The game began!

"WuChanghe," who was "sitting" opposite, had already placed his stone.

When Zhang Ye saw this, he followed up by placing his stone in the opposite corner. An opening with moves in opposing corners 1 could easily throw the framework into disarray. This method was often employed by weaker opponents against a stronger one. The idea behind it was to win amid the chaos it brought. But Zhang Ye was not afraid of that. Instead, his character suited such a method even better!

About eight moves later.

Old Wu said curiously, "Eh, this doesn't look how my dad usually plays?"

Zhang Ye laughed and said, "Yeah, your dad often changes his strategy. He would change his playstyle after every game he lost to me."

Old Wu understood. "It must be because he couldn't find a way to deal with you, so he deliberately changed his strategy. My dad is pretty good. When did he become so adaptable?"

"Whoa, this is a good move!"

"Mhm."

"Haha, but watch me now!"

"How are you going to respond?"

"Watch as I trick him."

"Eh, why did you place your stone there?"

"Hehe, you'll know why in a bit. Ha, look at this! Your dad has taken the bait. Wait a bit. Just wait a bit and I'll show you a clever play!"

After Black made the 85th move.

Zhang Ye smiled as he took a white stone and clinked it down!

His opponent was silenced!

This silence lasted for a full ten minutes!

Zhang Ye cackled with laughter. "He fell for it! I bet your dad is getting frustrated!"

As Wu Zeqing's Go skill was just average, her observational skills were lacking by quite a bit. It wasn't until this moment that she understood why Zhang Ye had played his stones in those positions in the opening!

Wu Zeqing marveled, "Very beautiful."

Zhang Ye was overjoyed at receiving praise from his girlfriend.

Then a dialog box popped up!

His opponent resigned!

Zhang Ye typed: "Are we still playing, Uncle?"

"Yes. Wait a little! Don't run off!"

"Alright, I'll be here."

Very quickly, another game started!

This time, his opponent changed to yet another opening playstyle!

Zhang Ye did not think anything of it. He chatted with Wu Zeqing as he simultaneously played and explained his moves.

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "If you keep playing like this, you might really end up losing. Don't other people play Go silently?"

However, Zhang Ye was accustomed to playing and chatting at the same. He really hadn't played much Go before and did not have a subdued personality either. He had played a lot of Fight the Landlord, so this fellow was actually using the mentality of that game to play Go. Every now and then, Zhang Ye would send some offending words to "WuChanghe" to harass him. He even felt that this was very normal behavior in Go. If you played like a slowpoke, you would definitely be hurried!

"Are you in the toilet?"

"Uncle, where did you go?"

"Are you taking a dump?"

"Why aren't you moving?"

"Please move?"

"The flowers are wilting as I wait!"

"Did you forget to bring toilet paper?"

Wu Zeqing could not refrain from laughing. This was the first time she had seen someone play Go in such a way. Furthermore, those messages he sent sounded really mean as well!

In reality, Zhang Ye was having a very difficult time this game. "Your dad is playing really well in the midgame. He's playing really well this game, really well. Look at this setup here. He's trying to trap me!"

Wu Zeqing said, "He making you make forcing moves."

Zhang Ye laughed and said, "That might not be the case. He wants to trick me? Your dad is really overthinking things. Alright, I'll confuse him by responding with a horizontal stretch."

"A horizontal stretch?"

"Haha, I have to make him think that I've actually taken his bait."

"And then?"

"Then the midgame will be mine!"

His opponent placed his stone!

Zhang Ye placed his stone!

His opponent placed another stone!

Zhang Ye smiled as he played an atari on his opponent!

And then, there were no more thens!

His opponent's timer 2 started counting up.

Three minutes…

Five minutes…

His opponent resigned.

Zhang Ye said to Old Wu, "In fact, this game can be played on until the endgame. But there's no point in playing any further than this. Your dad has no hope of turning things around."

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "My dad's skill has really regressed a lot over the years."

In Zhang Ye's heart, his attitude toward Wu Changhe was slowly changing. He was starting to think that this old man was really quite skilled. Wu Changhe made some moves that nearly landed him in an unfavorable position and the standard of play increased the more games they played. It was as though he had changed persons with every match they played. He was indeed worthy of being the best Go player all those years ago. He was truly a force to be reckoned with!

But still, Zhang Ye did not lose!

One game!

Three games!

Five games!

Zhang Ye defeated all in his way, emerging victorious!

Near the computer.

Inside the Go association at China Qiyuan.

Silence reigned in the hall.

Wu Changhe was dumbfounded!

President Dan Donghe was dumbfounded!

All the professional players in the Go association were dumbfounded!

"Qi Qi 7-dan lost?"

"Chang Han 9-dan lost?"

"Tian Xi 9-dan lost too?"

"Li Yi 9-dan is also no match for him?"

"Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!"

A total of five professional Go players had played against YE!

One of them was ranked 12th in the world!

One of them was ranked 10th in the world!

One of them was ranked 9th in the world!

One of them was ranked 7th in the world!

The highest ranking player was 4th in the world!

All of them lost!

All of them fucking lost!

"Holy shit!"

"Oh my God!"

"Who the fuck is he?"

"H-How could this be!"

They could not believe their eyes!

Chen Ying, Xu Han, and the others nearly pissed their pants!

A lot of the 5th and 6th dan players were staring at the computer screen while rubbing their eyes, dumbfounded. They could not react to it for a very long while. They were almost going crazy as their concept of the game had been completely shattered in these moments!

The reason Wu Changhe came to seek assistance from China Qiyuan was because he wanted to get the top Go players to take turns teaching Zhang Ye a lesson. But in the end, YE, by himself, destroyed everyone from China Qiyuan!

They were crushed!

He did not suffer a single loss!

The most crucial part was that this joker called YE kept harassing them throughout the games. He constantly sent messages like "hurry up," "even the flowers have wilted," "why are you taking your sweet time," and "are you taking a dump." He even repeatedly sent those messages, taking those 9th dan players to the brink of collapse and making them see red!

Taking a dump?

Forgetting to bring toilet paper?

Why the hell would you care if I brought any toilet paper or not!

What the fuck has that got anything to do with you!?
