Chapter 1110: YE appears again!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

The next day.

In the morning.

Someone broke the news on Weibo and a discussion followed.

“Changhe 9-dan was utterly demolished in Go yesterday?”

“Yeah, it happened on the Online Go Server. It was really ruthless!”

“Yeah. That opponent of his was also particularly funny. He played Go in the style of Fight the Landlord and kept urging his opponents to hurry up with their moves. He even asked if they had forgotten to bring toilet paper with them to the bathroom. Those of us viewing the matches at that time laughed our asses off! I’ve never seen such a rude person before. Is he even playing Go?!”

“I saw it too! I was dying of laughter!”

“But that guy is really very good at the game!”

“By the way, I think I saw a flash of Xiang Rong’s account appearing!”

“I noticed it too. Could Xiang Rong 9-dan have really played against him?”

“I don’t know. The room was no longer accessible after that!”

“Even Xiang Rong 9-dan was called upon? That’s impossible!”

“Damn! If it really happened, I want to know who won!”

On Weibo.

In the Go forums.

Within the Go community.

Similar discussions were taking place everywhere. Among those who played Go, this matter had caused quite a big stir.

Some of the netizens were muttering about this, but many of them could only make guesses as to what really happened. Only the people from China Qiyuan were in the know, and they even knew exactly how the matter had come about and its specific details. However, the outcome of yesterday’s events were still unacceptable to many of them. As a result, none of them said a word about it to anyone. To them, this was not something to be proud of at all!

…

At Zhang Ye’s parents’ house.

In his bedroom.

Zhang Ye woke up happily with a smile, probably from some dream that he was having. After he got up, he immediately went to brush his teeth and wash up, all the while singing, “We the common folk, we are so happy today!”

His mother looked at him. “Did you win a prize? What are you so happy about?”

Zhang Ye laughed and said, “I’m just happy, that’s all.”

“Why did you come home so late again last night?” His father asked.

Zhang Ye sighed out, “I went out to play Go. Just messing around and having a little fun.”

His parents knew that he could play Go, but they did not know how good he was. His mother said in amusement, “You only had some lessons in elementary school and signed up for an extracurricular class in middle school. You even attended the classes on and off for only a semester, so who could you possibly play against at your level? You can’t even beat your dad.”

Zhang Ye said with a chuckle, “That’s not true. I won’t have a problem winning against Dad for sure.”

“I haven’t seen you touch the game in many years. What made you suddenly want to play again?” his father asked.

Zhang Ye said, “I’m on leave for half a month, aren’t I? So of course I’d have to find something to relax with.”

His mother pursed her lips. “Rather than playing Go, you should be out earning money.”

His father gave her a look. “Our son’s been tired out by work recently. It’s only right that he should get some rest.”

“It’s still Dad who loves me more.” Zhang Ye laughed.

What was so important about work?

What was the urgency of making money?

He had to get the matter of his marriage settled first and foremost!

He still hadn’t managed to “convince” Old Wu’s father yet!

After breakfast.

He went back to his room to prepare for another day of playing Go. Talking about it, this fellow was really starting to get addicted to playing. Especially that last game with “WuChanghe.” He enjoyed it quite a lot. Although the game ended in a draw, it was only decided as so after they both agreed to it. Go was unlike Xiangqi in that no games could be drawn. As long as they played until the end, a winner would be determined. Zhang Ye didn’t know if he could have won because the game played by “WuChanghe” was spectacular. Zhang Ye did not know whether he had hidden his strength before that, or if he had finally found a way of dealing with him after playing so many rounds.

He had to be wary!

Comrade Changhe was indeed still pretty strong!

Zhang Ye was so petty that he immediately thought of a way to deal with that. He decided that he would strengthen his Go skill so that Comrade Changhe would not have a chance to make a comeback and gain an advantage over him. Since he wanted to win, he would have to win every game. Only then would Wu Changhe be convinced that he was really serious and determined to marry his daughter!

Right!

It was time for the lottery!

He needed to get several more of those skill experience books!

Zhang Ye was very spontaneous about it and immediately brought up the lottery draw system. He had already maxed out on the Lottery Draw (One)’s Go Skill Experience Books, so there wasn’t any meaning in getting more of those. So he selected the Lottery Draw (Two) system to play. He did not add many additional stakes to it since he had already spent quite a bit of Reputation Points the previous time. Although he still had a lot, he did not want to be so wasteful. He had to save for a rainy day, after all. And so, he only added four additional stakes to the draw for a total of five stakes which cost 50 million Reputation Points. Then, he readily activated the Lucky Halo (Upgraded). When the halo appeared, he was imbued with luck and his Reputation Points started dropping every second!

-100,000!

-100,000!

Zhang Ye quickly started the lottery draw!

When the slot machine was activated, he wasn’t sure if he could be so lucky to really get the Go Skill Experience Books. This was a good time to test the effects of the Lucky Halo again!

The icons flashed by quickly!

5 seconds…

10 seconds…

Slowly, the machine came to a stop!

Zhang Ye had already closed his eyes. When he heard the ding signaling the end of the lottery draw, he opened his eyes to take a look. Then he laughed out loud when he saw that the icons had lined up with the Skills Category icons. This made Zhang Ye very excited and he couldn’t wait to open up all the medium-size treasure chests!

The golden treasure chests opened up!

A golden flash of light emitted from them!

[Xiangqi Skill Experience Book] × 5.

When Zhang Ye saw the prize, he nearly burst into tears!

Dammit!

Why weren’t they the skill experience books for Go?

Xiangqi? Why would I need Xiangqi skills!

Zhang Ye felt a twinge of pain. But since he had gotten the prize, he had no way to give it back. He deactivated the lucky halo in sadness and then started studying the Xiangqi Skill Experience Books one by one. The books dissolved into glowing light particles and surged right into his mind! Zhang Ye could clearly sense that his Xiangqi skill was growing. He had not drawn any Xiangqi Skill Experience Books before from Lottery Draw (One), and instead “ate” the Lottery Draw (Two)’s skill experience books. In doing so, Zhang Ye discovered that the effect was essentially the same as “eating” the equivalent amount of Reputation Points worth of skill experience books from Lottery Draw (One).

For example, these five Lottery Draw (Two) skill experience books had cost him 50 million Reputation Points. This was equivalent to 500 Lottery Draw (One) skill experience books for the Xiangqi skill. It was only after the lower level skill had been maxed out that the higher level skill experience books would be able to stack on top of that experience.

Hai.

If it was Xiangqi, then so be it.

After he gained a better understanding of the system, Zhang Ye did not continue playing the lottery draw. He decided to forget about it since his luck today didn’t seem too good. The Lucky Halo (Upgraded) didn’t felt like it was too effective today, so it was better not to force it.

He went online and logged in to his account. Zhang Ye entered into the Online Go Server again!

Where was everyone?

Where’s Comrade Changhe?

I, Hu Hansan, am back! 1

…

At China Qiyuan.

There was a sudden commotion at the computers!

“He’s here!”

“Damn, YE is back again!”

“His account is online now!”

“What’s he back for?”

Quite a few people had arrived at the Qiyuan this morning. When they heard the commotion, everyone rushed over to have a look.

“Ah, Teacher Changhe is also online!”

“Is he currently playing anyone?”

“He already finished a game.”

“Eh? How did YE get into Teacher Changhe’s room again?”

“I’m floored. Where the heck did he get the password from?”

“Ah, quick, see this!”

“Changhe 9-dan has kicked him out of the room!”

“Teacher Changhe has changed the password!”

“Ah, YE got into the room again!”

“Pfft, Teacher Changhe has kicked him out again!”

“Teacher Changhe doesn’t want to play him anymore!”

“Aiyo, the room’s administrative rights have been stolen!”

“What?”

“YE has become the administrator!”

“Teacher Changhe can’t kick him anymore!”

“Ah, Changhe 9-dan has left the room!”

“He has set up a new room!”

“Damn, YE came in again!”

“YE has been kicked again!”

“Ah, he came in again!”

“The administrator role has been taken!”

“Aiyo! Teacher Changhe has been kicked by YE!”

“Damn!”

“What sort of grudge do they have!”

I’m dying of laughter!”

Everyone was laughing on as they watched the ruckus!

This drama of the year was incredibly funny!
