Chapter 70: It's a Coincidence

"Look, this opening is exactly the same as the ones posted on the forum before."

Li Yi looked at the familiar opening on the screen with some disdain, and said to Kang Jihan who was standing aside.

"Jihan, if you want me to say, you're being too cautious. That's why you was deceived by him."

Kang Jihan ignored Li Yi's sarcasm, but said lightly.

"You will find that out later."

Everyone thought he played against Autumn Winds Sweeping Fallen Leaves two games. But in fact, he played three games.

In the third game, he was convinced that he was defeated.

He thinks that this Autumn Winds Sweeping Fallen Leaves likes to play chess with weak opponents, not because he is weak.

Maybe it's just a matter of preference.

But Li Yi said disapprovingly.

"Then let's see what he got."

When the chess game reached the fortieth move, Li Yi's smile gradually disappeared from his face.

His expression began to become a little dignified.

Standing behind him, Kang Jihan and the other professional chess players began to look serious.

Ten minutes later, when the opponent dropped a chess piece.

Everyone gasped.

Li Yi was stunned, as if his soul had been talken away by the envoy.

His lips trembled slightly, as he muttered to himself.

"How could this be..."

In the end, struggle appeared in his eyes, unwillingness to despair.

"I actually lost."

Li Yi surrendered, and then leaned on the chair decadently.

Just now he said big words, and wanted to slap the Autumn Winds Sweeping Fallen Leaves, but unexpectedly, the slap failed, and he was slapped in the face instead.

He turned his head to look at Kang Jihan.

"You, did you already know about it. Do you know the Autumn Winds Sweeping Fallen Leaves?"

Other professional chess players also looked at Kang Jihan, waiting for his answer.

"I don't know him, but I know that he is very strong in chess. It's not that he can only abuse the game as said on the forum. You've already seen his chess ability."

When the other people heard it, they couldn't help talking.

"That's too strong, this person, he must be a grandmaster, right?"

"It's possible, otherwise how could it be so powerful."

"This person's chess style is unpredictable. He was very stable at the beginning, but in the middle game, he was full of murderous intent."

"I really can't think of which grandmaster style it is."

Suddenly someone said.

"But why do I feel that this person doesn't look like a professional chess player?"

Kang Jihan looked at the man.

"What did you say?"

"Think about it, isn't there an international competition abroad recently? Those professional grandmaster players have all gone to participate."

The man continued.

"Where is there still time, how to play online in PawnPlay.com. And professional grandmaster players have their own pride, it's impossible."

After hearing what this person said, everyone else felt that it made sense, and Kang Jihan was also thoughtful.

Lee Minho on the other end of the screen was also thoughtful at this time.

Because he found that the person who played chess with him seemed to be about the same strength as the previous "Top of Mount Tai".

It's just that this person is not as stable as the Top of Mount Tai.

Lee Minho realized that with his current chess strength, it is not too difficult to deal with these 5th tier rank players on the Internet.

He didn't know that during the dozens of games he played, his chess strength has improved at an extremely fast phase.

The knowledge reserve of the Master Card has also been almost absorbed by him unconsciously.

"Alright, next one."

Lee Minho immediately looked for his next opponent.

Soon, many 4th to 5th tier players on the PawnPlay.com online found themselves invited to a game where the Vegetable Abuser the Autumn Winds Sweeping Fallen Leaves played.

Many people, with the same mentality as Li Yi, thought that they could defeat this Vegetable Abuser.

As a result, the abuse failed, but was abused instead.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, Lee Minho received a message from the game.

His second game was at the 2003 venue which was assigned to the 20th floor.

At 9:30 in the evening, Lee Minho finally completed the task of beheading a hundred people and unblocked the Super Rebate Card with 3-300 multiplier.

After the rebate card is unsealed, the countdown to the 72-hour usage time of the rebate card will begin.

It's just that Lee Minho thought about it all night, but he still hasn't figured out how to make the most valuable use of this rebate card.

The Chess Cup qualifiers will be held in the morning, and the results will be counted in the afternoon, and the competition venues of the contestants will be randomized again.

There are more than 200,000 people, and only a few hundred thousand can enter the second round.

The number of people is directly reduced by half.

The number of contestants from Kyoto has also been reduced by half.

Lee Minho and Kang Taehyun went out at the same time as yesterday, but they went to the sports center building faster than yesterday.

Today they can still see many reporters and spectators surrounding the gate.

There are even people in need who start the live broadcast directly at the door.

Regardless of the number of contestants today, there are half fewer than yesterday.

Therefore, there are fewer people queueing up than yesterday.

Lee Minho was on the twentieth floor, Kang Taehyun was on the third floor, and the two were not assigned together.

Entering the Sports Center Building, Lee Minho could only wait for the elevator, while Kang Taehyun went straight up the stairs.

While waiting for the elevator, Lee Minho saw a familiar person.

That sixteen-year-old boy named Bai Yan.

"It's you?"

Bai Yan didn't expect to meet Lee Minho again today.

Lee Minho was the first to leave the field yesterday, and the opponent was another old man.

Therefore, Bai Yan thought that Lee Minho was lucky enough to meet a soft persimmon.

Seeing Lee Minho now, he couldn't help curling his lips and said.

"Today, you may not have such good luck."

Lee Minho smiled and said.

"Im not sure, maybe I'm lucky!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator door opened, and Lee Minho hurried in.

Some of the contestants around also quickly walked into the elevator.

After Bai Yan saw Lee Minho go in, he didn't go in otherwise he will be completely squeezed in by the people behind.

After seeing Lee Minho press the button for the 20th floor, Bai Yan pursed his lips.

'No way, he is also on the 20th floor?' He thought.

Maybe the two of them are assigned to the same competition venue again. Sometimes fate is such a wonderful thing.

Lee Minho and Bai Yan were indeed assigned to the same competition field again, and the seats of the two were still side by side.

Bai Yan looked at Lee Minho who was sitting on his right, and couldn't help curling his lips again and said.

"It's really lucky, if you meet me, you won't have to come back after this match."

Lee Minho glanced at him and answered.

"You are quite confident."

Bai Yan raised her chin arrogantly.

"That's right, just pray, you won't meet me in the next round."

"I think, I still really want to meet you."

If it was only before the task of winning against hundreds of people, for the sake of caution, Lee Minho might really not want to meet Bai Yan.

After all, the sprinting teenagers who can participate in the fixed-stage competition are very good.

But now that he has completed the task of beheading a hundred people and unlocked the Super Rebate Card, Lee Minho has nothing to fear.

On the contrary, he wanted to play chess with masters even more. That way you can progress faster.

"Don't be ashamed, when we really meet, don't cry."

Bai Yan saw that Lee Minho could still laugh, and felt that he was just pretending to be calm.

Lee Minho just smiled and didn't speak.

'This little kid is quite interesting.'

Soon, Bai Yan's opponent came, a girl in her twenties.

The girl was very lively, as soon as she sat down, she saw the handsome Bai Yan, and greeted Bai Yan with a familiar smile.

It's a pity, that little boy Bai Yan was too arrogant, after a simple hum, he didn't say anything more.

The girl felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

But soon, the girl found Lee Minho who was sitting next to Bai Yan was also handsome and looked like a prince because of the temperance.

The clothes Lee Minho wore today were still tailor-made.

Today is a sporty style. Coupled with a sports watch that is different from yesterday, it feels fashionable and sunny.

The girl looked at Lee Minho up and down.

Although the clothes and shoes couldn't be seen as any brand, they gave the impression that they were not cheap.

When she saw the sports watch on Lee Minho's hand, her eyes lit up.

Because she recognized the watch on Lee Minho's hand at a glance, it was the one her boyfriend had always wanted to buy.

That watch is worth more than four million dollars.

'That handsome man looked to be about twenty-two years old, and he could afford more than four million watches.'

With such a good temperament, he must be a rich second generation.

The girl immediately wanted to say hello to Lee Minho, but found a graceful figure sitting down on the seat opposite Lee Minho.

The girl looked at the other party's exquisite curves, a pair of slender long legs, and a delicate face.

Immediately put away the idea of hooking up with Lee Minho.

If you can't fight, then you have to retreat in spite of the difficulties.

"It's you?"

"It's you?"

The two were stunned at the same time.

Lee Minho did not expect that his opponent would be Kang Taehyun's goddess, Ren Yena.

Ren Yena did not expect that her opponent in the second round would be Lee Minho.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Lee, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Ren Yena stretched out a pair of slender hands.

"What a coincidence."

Lee Minho also politely reached out his hand and shook her lightly, then let go.

Immediately afterwards, Lee Minho couldn't help but wondered.

"I didn't expect that you would come to participate in this kind of competition."

If he remembered correctly, Kang Taehyun said that Ren Yena herself is the president of a company, and she is a strong woman and a workaholic.

He really didn't expect that a very strong and workaholic woman would waste time to participate in this kind of competition.

"Mr. Lee, don't you want to participate in this kind of competition?"

Ren Yena raised her bright red lips, and instantly changed from an iceberg goddess to a floating fairy.

She didn't wear work clothes today, but a knee-length white skirt. When she smiled, she was very pure and beautiful.

Everyone around was amazed.

Lee Minho also thinks that she looks good when she smiles, but it is far from being able to amaze him.

His eyes are pure appreciation for Ren Yena.

'No wonder Kang Taehyun is so obsessed with her, this woman is really beautiful.'

Capable and strong, worthy of being a goddess-level figure.

Ren Yena saw that in Lee Minho's eyes, there was no other man hiding all kinds of desires and greed when facing her, but they were very clean.

Immediately, his impression of Lee Minho increased a lot.

So instead of teasing Lee Minho, she just explained.

"Im here for work."

Lee Minho didn't know what Ren Yena came here for.

Since the two were not familiar with each other, they didn't ask any further questions.

He just nodded and said.

"I'm here to win the championship."

Ren Yena was taken aback for a moment, then she couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.

"Mr. Lee, it's very funny."

Bai Yan who was sitting next to Lee Minho rolled his eyes immediately after hearing what Lee Minho said.

Lee Minho just shrugged. What he said was true, but no one believed it.

The competition started soon, and Lee Minho didn't show mercy because Ren Yena was a woman, or because of Kang Taehyun.

Ren Yena's chess skills are really not that good, maybe as she said, she came to work, not to compete.

But in only ten minutes, Lee Minho ate a large piece of her chess pieces.

Ren Yena had no choice but to throw in the towel.

After all, it was over soon, Ren Yena said helplessly to Lee Minho.

"I didn't expect you to be so skilled at chess. I had originally planned to play a few more rounds, hoping to encounter someone which is interesting. However, it seems I'm have no chance."

Lee Minho suddenly realized that Ren Yena came to play chess to meet someone by chance.

'Could it be the client she wants to win?'

Forget it, it has nothing to do with him, and Lee Minho didn't ask.

After nodding to Ren Yena, the referee came

to record the results, and left.
