I Just Won’t Play by the Book

As soon as Mo Xia returned to the room, he took out the chessboard and said to Jiang Beiran: "Senior brother! The opponent I met today is so powerful! He..."

"Let's talk later, I have to go out."

"Hey!?"

Mo Xia's expression was instantly frozen. On the way back just now, he didn't say a word to his senior brother, just so that senior brother could "walk", and he could play chess directly when he came back, but he didn't expect senior brother to go for another walk. .

"You go back to the market first, I'll be back soon." Rubbing Mo Xia's hair, Jiang Beiran turned around and pushed the door open and walked out.

Next to a pool, Jiang Beiran asked Wu Qingce to stop, then stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"

As soon as Jiang Beiran returned to the room, he sensed the profound energy emanating from Wu Qingce, and knew that he had something to look for himself.

"Senior brother, have you seen that Mu Yao's test?"

"Look."

"She is so fast! And the attack is very fierce, so far no one has supported five moves under her."

"Scared?"

"I'm not afraid... just..."

Seeing Wu Qingce's expression of hesitating to speak, Jiang Beiran said, "Want me to give you some pointers?"

After Wu Qingce heard this, he immediately said, "Yes!"

"Stop dreaming, work hard, and I'm leaving." Jiang Beiran turned and left.

"division……"

Wu Qingce, who put out Erkang's hand, finally didn't shout, but soon, he seemed to understand something.

'Senior brother doesn't point me, it means he thinks my strength is enough to defeat that Mu Yao! This is my brother's trust in me! ’

Wu Qingce's self-confidence greatly increased, and the tension in his heart was also swept away.

The next morning, Mo Xia, sitting on a bamboo chair, waited for his next opponent.

"Brother Jiuri, you must go faster today, or you will miss my test."

Standing not far behind Mo Xia, Jiang Beiran raised his head and saw the Mu brothers and sisters who had been in the limelight in the past two days walking towards them.

The younger sister is Mu Yao. After showing his third-order Xuanshi cultivation on the first day, and she said before that he is the most capable person in the entire Spirit Dragon Cult, the decent disciples regarded her as a demon. Teach the combat power ceiling.

Never thought that she has a more fierce brother named Mu Jiuri, whose cultivation base has reached the fourth rank of the profound master. In the past two days, none of the decent disciples is his enemy of unity.

And this Mu Jiuri is not only powerful, but also brilliant in terms of talent. He is proficient in Go, Guzheng, painting, and archery.

Not only that, but this Mu Jiuri's appearance is also very outstanding. When he first appeared, he was playing the guzheng. He was wearing a red robe, black sleeves and cloud sleeves. He sat on the ground. Thin lips, giving people a sense of noble Tsinghua.

After the song was played, although many female disciples on the decent side couldn't show it due to the "camp" issue, Jiang Beiran could see that a large part of them were fans of this Mu Jiuri.

Pushed all the way to the chessboard by Mu Yao, Mu Jiuri nodded towards Mo Xia, then sat opposite him.

"Brother Jiuri, hurry up."

Mu Jiuri shook his head at Mu Yao and said, "Don't make a fool of yourself, how did Dad usually teach us? We must respect every opponent."

"Okay, I know."

'How come the Demon Sect has this style of painting now...'

Looking at this elegant young man up close, Jiang Beiran really couldn't connect him with those strange-looking demon disciples.

When the referee came over, Mo Xia and Mu Jiuri bowed to each other, and the game officially began.

"Da da da"

...

The voice of Luozi kept ringing, and Mo Xia's expression became more and more solemn, because he found that the opponent in front of him was playing chess that was completely unreasonable.

Generally speaking, most chess players like to start offense and defense around the corners at the beginning of the game.

Because the corners are backed against the edge of the chessboard, you only need to hold two directions. Even if the corners are lost, they will lean to the sides, so you only need to hold three directions.

But this Mu Jiuri directly attacked the mid-flank area. You must know that the mid-flank area is guarded in four directions. It is like not looking for a bunker during a war, but directly using an open area with air leakage from all sides as a base.

As a result, Mo Xia was too concerned about why Mu Jiuri went down like this, and as a result, she became more and more chaotic, and the territory was lost again and again.

In the end, Mo Xia, who couldn't find any chance to win, clenched his fists and stared at the chessboard with clenched teeth.

"I...I admit defeat."

Mo Xia, who was full of unwillingness in her heart, left rows of tears, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

"Your chess is very good. I'm looking forward to playing against you again in the future." Mu Jiuri bowed to Mo Xia, but before he got up to leave, his eyes stopped on Jiang Beiran's face. for a while.

Jiang Beiran, who felt the sight of the other party, nodded towards him as a greeting.

"Brother Jiuri! What are you looking at? Hurry up, hurry up, my test will start soon!"

Mu Jiuri, who was held by Mu Yao, also nodded towards Jiang Beiran, then turned and left.

After a while, Jiang Beiran walked over to Mo Xia and rubbed his hair, "He's very powerful, you won't be wronged if you lose to him."

After hearing this, Mo Xia cried even louder, as if she was venting the sense of loss in her body.

"It's time for my game, do you want to continue crying, or come and see?"

Mo Xia listened hard

Wiping away a handful of tears, he said firmly, "Look."

"Well, then come with me."

It took an hour for Jiang Beiran to solve his opponent. Under the unbelievable gaze of the demon disciple on the other side, Jiang Beiran got up and saluted him and left the Qixuan.

"Senior brother...you will definitely win that Mu Jiuri tomorrow!" said Mo Xia, who walked out with Jiang Beiran.

After three days of selection in Go, today is the day of the semi-finals. After winning the previous opponent, Jiang Beiran's opponent is only Mu Jiuri.

"Do you know his chess skills?" Jiang Beiran asked.

"I..." Mo Xia hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know." But he quickly raised his face and said firmly, "But I can decide that your chess skills must be higher than his!"

Jiang Beiran smiled slightly and replied, "Okay, senior brother will try his best not to disappoint you."

After Mo Xia went back to read the chess manual, Jiang Beiran walked to the arena area and found that Wu Qingce had already won today's game and advanced to the semi-finals. Tomorrow's opponent is that Mu Yao.

Another day passed. After the last competition, there were only 15 decent disciples left. At this time, all the competitions basically came to an end. In other words, during the final confrontation, the decent disciples were still beaten. .

A few sects whose disciples have been eliminated have already returned early, and they have not even come out to eat together.

"Brother Xian teaches well, and all the disciples in the sect are very good."

In the banquet hall, Guan Shian looked at Lu Yinlong and said.

At present, there are still three contestants in the sect, and only the Covering Moon Sect and the Guixin Sect are left, but many people think that the Guixin Sect is lucky, because other sects also have disciples like Wu Qingce who have just broken through the Taoist realm, such as Xuan Yangzong and Tianwenzong, and even the senior brother of Tianwenzong reached the third rank of Xuanshi, but they met the brothers and sisters Mu Jiuri and Mu Yao in the previous game, and they were defeated together.

Therefore, Wu Qingce, who had just broken through the mysterious master, was just a lucky one in their eyes, and he would definitely lose to that Muyao in the competition tomorrow.

"It's still a lot of talented people in the hidden moon sect. Yan Qing's strength is obvious to all, and he will definitely be able to fight for our decent disciples."

Wang Yanqing, he is the strongest contemporary disciple of the Occult Moon Sect. Before he set off, everyone in the Guixin Sect thought that he would be Wu Qingce's strongest opponent, but now he has met Na Mu Jiuri in the semifinals, can he make it to the finals? Still an issue.

Guan Shi'an sighed: "I just hope he can leave no regrets tomorrow."

Before the start of the Yingjie Youth Club, Guan Shian was very confident in Wang Yanqing, but after seeing Mu Jiuri's performance two days ago, he couldn't help but start to worry about whether his disciples could pass him.

"Oh, touting each other? Bring me one." At this time, Yin Jianghong, who was full of alcohol, came over with a jug.

Glancing at him helplessly, Guan Shian said, "I know that your two disciples are amazing, you don't need to brag about it."

In the past three days, Guan Shian has been tempered by Yin Jianghong. Although he knew that the other party was here to play, his performance was not so extreme. They lost because their skills were not as good as others. .

"Hahaha, I'm embarrassed for what Sect Master Guan said. Hey, those little brats in my school are having a bonfire banquet over there. Would you like to go outside together to be lively? What's the point of being inside?"

"No, I'm fine here."

"Hiccup!" Yin Jianghong hiccupped, "A lot of your decent disciples have also gone, aren't you worried?"

"Of course their suzerain is following, so what am I worried about."

As the so-called "no fight, no acquaintance", after four days of competition, the disciples on both sides have formed a deep friendship, but they have become familiar with each other.

From mocking each other at the beginning, now it has become a rivalry with each other, and getting along with each other is not as awkward as it was at the beginning.

"Gudu...gudu...ha~" Ha~" Ha~" breathed a sigh of alcohol, Yin Jianghong smiled and said, "I have to say, I didn't expect that among your decent disciples, there are actually a few who can fight. Originally I thought we were here at the Demon Sect. Can take the top eight."

"You think it's pretty." Guan Shi'an snorted coldly.

Although I have to admit that in terms of overall strength, the Demon Sect is better, but the top disciples of the decent side finally made a way out, saving some face for the decent side.

"Hey! Tell the truth, which side do you think will win tomorrow."

"We'll know when we fight tomorrow."

"Guess what, hey, don't go away!"

...

In the hilarity, a night has passed, a new day has come, and the finals of various talents are today.

A group of high-ranking demons also sat around the stands and waited for the birth of the leader with all the disciples.

Mu Jiuri's performance was still strong, winning consecutively in the three events of archery, guzheng and painting, and the audience burst into exclamations.

"This Mu Jiuri is still human...Is there nothing he can't do?"

"It's really amazing. Although he is a disciple of the Demon Sect, I can only say admiration."

"Hahaha, of course, our Senior Brother Nine Days is recognized by all the disciples of the Demon Sect as a genius in the world, let alone in this small Fengzhou, even in Xuanzhou, our Senior Brother Nine Days is the most dazzling one."

"Come on, say you're fat, you're still panting, and Xuanzhou is the most dazzling, why don't you just say that he has the appearance of Emperor Xuan?"

"There's nothing I dare to say! Our brothers Jiuri have the appearance of Emperor Xuan."

"Yes yes yes, you continue to tell the story, I listen."

"Don't fight, the chess game is about to start. Brother Jiuri wins the championship, and it's a slam."

"Who is the opponent?"

"I don't know. It seems that I didn't participate in the competition, and came here specifically to play chess."

"It's no wonder that I can make it to the finals. Those who specialize are still a little capable. Unfortunately, when I meet Senior Brother Jiu Ri, I'm doomed to lose."

In the pavilion as the final venue, Jiang Beiran and Mu Jiuri sat face to face and bowed to each other.

"Brother Jiuri! I'm going to win him! We'll celebrate for you!"

On the stand behind Mu Jiuri, Mu Yao summoned her profound strength and shouted loudly.

In her thoughts, her eldest brother doesn't need to cheer up at all. As long as he participates, there will only be a victory.

In the stands, five golden flowers glared at Mu Yao.

'Hmph, dare to look down on senior brother, you will know how powerful you are in a while! ’

Liu Zijin and the others were originally called to see the world, so they were eliminated early. Because there were not many people watching the Go game, they were afraid that their rush to watch would make their senior brothers unhappy, so they could only endure it.

Now that the final day has finally arrived, all the disciples and the sect master have come to watch the battle, and they will sit in the auditorium together as a matter of course.

Although they really wanted to refute that Mu Yao, but because Mu Jiuri won the competitions too much, no one from the decent disciples is optimistic about Jiang Beiran.

But no matter what other people think, the five of them firmly believe that Senior Brother will definitely win!
