Chapter 219: It All Depends on Your Performance!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
On the ninth day, Yang Dingtian lost by a total of five chess pieces.
Qin ngli threw the chess pieces back into the box uninterestedly and spoke hoarsely, “Shen Lang, the ga you created is very interesting. However, your skills are extrely weak. Are you really the creator of this ga?”
“Of course.” Yang Dingtian replied, “I had said so previously. Although I had created this ga, my skills aren’t the best, and it could only be counted as an average standard.”
“Yan Bieqin had only heard of the ga rules, yet his skills are already better than yours after contemplating it for a few days.” Madam Qin spoke languidly, “We had played three gas together and among the three gas, he won one of it. Your skills are so ordinary. I really cannot help but suspect if you are the creator of this ga.”
Yang Dingtian was imdiately startled. This Yan Bieqin was really a lingering spirit. Furthermore, he totally had no idea that even after Qin ngli had made her decision, she still called out to Yan Bieqin. It could be seen how appealing this man was to her.
Without a doubt, Yan Bieqin’s Go skills had already exceeded Qin ngli. However, he would only choose to win a ga among the best of three purposely. From the beginning to the end, he would leave Qin ngli in suspense so that she would not lose her interest so quickly.
Furthermore, Yan Bieqin’s intelligence was too terrifying, as well. He had only understood the rules and played against himself for a few days. After which, he was actually able to win against Qin ngli. Besides, Qin ngli’s Go skills were not weak, either. At the very least, it had greatly exceeded Yang Dingtian. Moreover, Yang Dingtian’s Go skills were actually among the top few in the co-curricular class in his university.
From here, he was able to tell how determined he was in pursuing Qin ngli. Perhaps, it could be said that there was a very big sche behind it. As to what the sche was, no one knew.
Qin ngli looked at Yang Dingtian amusedly, “What? You aren’t going to explain yourself?”
Imdiately, Yang Dingtian smiled coldly, “Did Yan Bieqin also get you to question on this? What is he trying to achieve? Furthermore, why didn’t he co and question himself? Instead, he had to rely on your mouth.”
“Since you had asked for , I shall co out.” Yan Bieqin walked in and looked at Yang Dingtian, “I really doubt that you create this ga of Go. You rely copied soone else’s work. I simply cannot believe that the person who created such a profound and complex ga would possess such a weak skill in playing it.”
Yang Dingtian shook his head and smiled coldly towards Qin ngli, “Do you think so as well?”
“It doesn’t matter to .” Qin ngli replied, “It’s just that if it is so, I’m really very disappointed!”
“Haha...” Yang Dingtian rose his head and laughed before speaking to Su i, who was at the side, “Bring the jade board and jade stones.”
Su i glanced at Qin ngli before turning around to fetch the jade board and jade stones over.
He took a total of three jade boards and dozens of different kinds of jade stones.
Imdiately, Madam Qin couldn’t help but glance at Su i. Although Su i didn’t speak, one could tell from her action that she was clearly on the side of Yang Dingtian.
Yang Dingtian held a jade board over and sliced it into a square. Subsequently, he cut out 32 checkboxes on the left and right sides, respectively. The middle was left blank before he craved three-letter words, Land of Chaos.
Subsequently, Yang Dingtian extracted out 16 pieces of circular chess pieces from a big red jade stone using his sword. Then, he extracted out another 16 pieces of circular chess piece from the big black jade stone using his sword as well. Every chess piece was approximately an inch in size.
That’s right; he was trying to create Chinese chess. However, the words on it couldn’t be craved similar to what earth had used.
Red represented the Heaven Dao Union while black represented Evil Dao.
Therefore, the ‘Marshal’ represented the Union Lord, and ‘General’ represented the Demon Lord.
The ‘Advisors’ remained as guardians because there were similar ways of addressing them in this world. They are equivalent to the advisor status. It was just that he had used the words from this world.
‘Bishop’ remained as bishops. They were equivalent to Chief Manager Wu’s position from the Xin headquarters.
There was no ‘Cannon’ in this world. However, there were Devil Crystal Violent Crossbows. They were sowhat equivalent to cannons.
The ‘Knight’ could be changed into formidable mounts that were demonic beasts.
And the most crucial ‘Rook’ will be changed into formation!
Because in this world, the most destructive power ca from a big formation that was ford by dozens of experts. Previously on the ocean, Dongfang Bingling, Zhu Hongxue as well as dozens of Yin Yang Sect disciples ford a Yin Yang Great Formation. It had almost killed the Grandmaster class expert, Xin Wuya. Before that, Xin Wuya had already fully exhausted his mystic qi and was badly injured.
As for the ‘Soldier’ and ‘Pawn,’ he could just carve them out according to the words used in this world.
After finishing the version of Chinese chess from this world, Yang Dingtian started to introduce the rules of Chinese chess.
After he spoke, Yang Dingtian arranged the chess pieces accordingly and pushed them towards Yan Bieqin, “Co, let’s have a match.”
Yan Bieqin frowned slightly. However, he still nodded his head because the rules of Chinese chess weren’t complicated. He had more or less morized them after Yang Dingtian had narrated them once.
Yang Dingtian didn’t say anything further and made his move imdiately.
Yan Bieqin thought for a mont before starting as well.
rely 25 steps later, Yang Dingtian obtained the victory. He had checkmated Yan Bieqin’s Demon Lord.
After the ga, Yang Dingtian looked at Yan Bieqin coldly and comnted, “This Chinese chess, have you played it before?”
Yan Bieqin shook his head, “Nope.”
Yang Dingtian continued, “Then have you heard of it before?”
Yan Bieqin continued to shake his head, “No.”
“Similarly, this Chinese chess was also created by .” Yang Dingtian replied coldly, “However, after a dozen gas later, you will surpass . Do you know why?”
“I’m listening.” Yan Bieqin replied.
“So people can plan according to strategy difficulty. Regardless of how complex and profound the strategy was, they would still be able to design them out. However, once they were baited into the strategy, he would beco extrely bad at it. This could only imply that he possesses the ability to plan according to the situation but might not necessarily have the ability to fight for the city or land. This is similar to an aloof phoenix. It could fly above the Nine Heavens and look at the ground and mountains as it could have a panoramic view of all the mountain paths in all directions. However, once its wings were to break and fall onto the mountain, it would lose its way.” Yang Dingtian narrated, “Is this reasoning clear enough for you?”
Once the reasoning was made, Qin ngli’s beautiful eyes sparkled. Very clearly, she was convinced by Yang Dingtian’s reasoning to the point that it had moved her.
Furthermore, the reasoning behind this harbored unfathomable aning. Yang Dingtian had made himself look like he was a genius that was able to plan according to situations while Yan Bieqin was soone who could only charge and fight.
Clearly, Yan Bieqin could also sense the aning behind Yang Dingtian’s words. However, he couldn’t find any words to rebuke montarily. Imdiately, he smiled candidly as he bowed at Yang Dingtian, “Brother Shen is really talented. Yan Bieqin has benefited from your advice.”
After which, Yan Bieqin spoke to Qin ngli, “Madam, it’s who had gauged the heart of a gentleman with one’s own an asure. Sorry! I shall take my leave!”
Subsequently, he actually turned around and left. It was extrely straightforward and decisive.
****************************************
Yang Dingtian could sense that this person was certainly a formidable opponent. When he saw that the situation was not advantageous to him, he would never continue to be in a tangle with it.
Yang Dingtian continued to arrange the chess pieces and spoke to Qin ngli, “Madam, I will accompany you to play this type of chess from now onwards.”
Qin ngli shook her head. Her eyes were fixated on Yang Dingtian and not the Chinese chess, “No, I don’t wish to play chess right now. Currently, I want to understand you; who are you?”
Yang Dingtian remained silent for a mont before replying, “A loner, a person pursuing his dreams.”
“I’m a loner as well.” Qin ngli replied, “I’m always in a state of boredom. Even if sothing is extrely interesting, it would rely sustain for a few days. Your ga of Go, as well as this Chinese chess, are extrely profound and enjoyable. However, I’m already sowhat tired of the ga of Go. As for this Chinese chess, I can already faintly feel that I will get tired of it five days later, even before I have started playing it. Do you still have any other fun gas?”
“Yes, a lot.” Yang Dingtian replied, “But it’s not much of a use to you because there will be a day where you will be tired of all the gas similar to it to the point that you will even be bored of the gas that you have yet to play.”
“Then, do you have any way to let everything beco not so boring?” Qin ngli inquired.
“Yes.” Yang Dingtian replied.
“Then, tell .” Qin ngli continued.
“You had always handled matters on your own territory. Therefore, nothing had gone beyond your control. Thus, anything would beco boring. You just need to leave the place that could guarantee your safety and place yourself in unknown dangerous circumstances. So long as it is filled with uncertainty, you will never be bored of it.” Yang Dingtian comnted.
“There ought to be an objective, right?” Qin ngli replied, “Getting to leave this so-called familiar environnt and head over to a completely unfamiliar location to adventure. There needs to be a strong and sufficient impetus to do so.”
Yang Dingtian thought over it for a mont before shaking his head, “Sorry, I’m not you. Therefore, I’m unable to find a reason for you.”
Qin ngli smiled charmingly, “What about you? You’re a wanderer. A wanderer who had traveled around the world. What’s the reason that was encouraging you to take the risk? What’s your objective then?”
Yang Dingtian thought for a mont and replied, “To seek the ultimate secret behind this world.”
“What ultimate secret?” Qin ngli inquired.
“The secret behind the extinction of ancient civilization. Furthermore, why is there a war of destruction every few hundred years.” Yang Dingtian replied.
“What did you discover then?” Qin ngli inquired.
Yang Dingtian kept his silence for a mont, “Sothing very vague. Furthermore, you will not be genuinely interested in it.”
“No. I’m very interested. Tell one thing.” Qin ngli replied.
Yang Dingtian kept his silence for a mont before replying, “In the ancient world, the Infernal Sea was the Naga Race’s habitat. Before the great war of destruction, the Naga Race had migrated together and had moved to a location that couldn’t be located by humans.”
Qin ngli’s expression slightly trembled, “Originally, I didn’t have much hope in what you were about to tell . But who knew that it would actually be so shocking.”
After which, Qin ngli continued, “However, I advise you not to tell others what you think. Otherwise, you will et a tragic end.”
Yang Dingtian nodded his head.
In fact, such topics were a taboo to the Heaven Dao Union because the Infernal Sea was where the Shrine of Extermination was located. It was Evil Dao’s core region and was the most mysterious place in this world. For thousands of years, the Heaven Dao Union was never able to enter that place, so much that the Heaven Dao Union had no idea where the Infernal Sea was at. They only knew that it was at the extre west.
The Naga Race was the Divine Dragon’s relative and was the strongest race in this world. By pulling the Evil Dao and Naga Race together, it was equivalent to pushing the Evil Dao up high. It would negatively impact the Heaven Dao Union’s prestige. Therefore, pulling the Evil Dao and Naga Race together was an absolute taboo. Practically no one in the Heaven Dao Union dared to touch upon this topic.
Qin ngli glanced at Yang Dingtian and spoke, “Why did you stop roaming around the world after coming here then?”
Yang Dingtian remained silent for a mont before replying, “Want the truth?”
Qin ngli’s gaze imdiately beca serious and solemn, “That’s right; speak the truth.”
“Perhaps, I have temporarily co to a stop.” Yang Dingtian replied, “Previously, the wandering was too exhausting, and it just so happens that I have discovered such a beauty like you in West Prefecture City. It reminded of a lot of mories from the past. Therefore, I felt even more exhausted and couldn’t help but stop and take a break.”
“How long are you going to rest here then?” Qin ngli inquired.
“Not sure.” Yang Dingtian replied, “But I’m sure it will be longer than you have a fresh feeling for a man.”
Qin ngli stood up leisurely and comnted, “Honestly speaking, the gas you created are indeed very profound and complex. But if it boils down to choosing my companion, I would prefer Yan Bieqin more. Furthermore, I no longer have the wish to play chess any longer. But after all, you’re the victor. Therefore, there’s still a final stage for you, and that’s your ability as a man. If you’re able to conquer , I will be your woman for the following half a month or even a month. That will have to depend on your performance.”
Yang Dingtian’s heart leaped. This mont had finally arrived.
