The Greatest Man Alive

Chapter 497

This game immediately attracted many people because of Evelyn’s reputation and beauty. With the halo of a beautiful player, she was naturally more attractive than other professional players.

In recent years, Evelyn was fading out of the Go world, but she was still highly sought after.

Jade sat upright at the very beginning of the game as if what was in front of her was not a computer, but a real Go board. She showed her seriousness and carefulness like she was in a real Go game. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Evelyn sat relatively casually. She was wearing pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the bed, and holding a wireless mouse in her hand, but her expression was also very serious.

Jade won in guessing the stones, so she took the black stones.

“It’s Evelyn. I haven’t seen her playing Go online for a long time!”

“It’s rare to see Evelyn playing Go. Who is her opponent this time?”

“I haven’t seen this ID before, and it seems that his record is not very good… Besides, he is not even a professional player.”

In the chat room, netizens began to discuss.

The game officially started, and Adrian watched it carefully while having melon seeds.

Jade made her first move on the star point in the upper left corner, and Evelyn also quickly played.

After a dozen moves, Evelyn paused for a while, perhaps because she felt that the opponent’s strength was much stronger than she had imagined.

At first, she was planning to end the game quickly, but now she realized that something was wrong. She became vigilant and planned her new opening more seriously and rigorously.

Jade sat upright as if she was in a military parade. She stared at the Go board on the computer, thinking of countless game records, and coped with Evelyn’s moves.

After playing more than 80 moves, the situation became fierce. The playing styles of both sides were very aggressive, so they played tit-for-tat.

“Evelyn’s skill has not decreased but increased. I haven’t seen her appear in Go world in recent years. Even the last time she played an online game was half a year ago. I didn’t expect her skill to become so profound!”

“Wow… This move is so dangerous. I thought she made a mistake, but she turned the corner!”

“The opponent is also very good. His skill in Go is about the same as Evelyn’s!”

On the public screen, netizens discussed excitedly.

Evelyn’s move broke Jade’s opening and forced the black stones to the corner.

Netizens felt it was a pity, otherwise, the black stones would still have the power to turn the tables.

After a while, the black stones made a resignation.

Adrian could see that Jade didn’t lose this because of her skill but her professional experience. After all, she was challenging a professional player.

How could it be so easy?

Jade directly initiated the invitation for the second game, and Evelyn accepted it without hesitation. She felt that it was very interesting to fight against an opponent who had a similar style as hers.

In this round, Jade held the white stones. However, the expected fierce fighting did not appear, and the white stones opened with an encircling style.

“A different player?” Evelyn sneered and typed in the chat box.

“No, I play Tai Chi,” Jade replied.

Adrian nodded secretly at this time. Jade was indeed a practitioner of Tai Chi, she integrated the theory of this boxing spirit with the theory of Go. Now, she was using softness to overcome strength slowly.

Evelyn fell into a passive position this time, and Jade dispelled every one of her attacks invisibly, which made her gradually straighten her crossed legs, put the computer on the desk, and become more serious.

Everyone felt that the style of the white stones changed too quickly. He played tough and radical last time, but this time, he became soft but strong.

Evelyn was also not used to such a rhythm.

At the counting of the endgame, she lost by a half-point.

There was an instant explosion in the room. They didn’t expect Evelyn to be defeated by an unknown amateur player. That was crazy!

Sweat beads appeared on Jade’s forehead, and she couldn’t help sighing, “As expected of a woman from the Mendez Family… Her skills in Go are too terrifying!”

Facing the invitation from Evelyn for the third round, Jade readily agreed.

In the third round of the game, Evelyn was obviously a lot more careful, and every one of her moves was carefully considered. This round would be the most difficult. It would be a test for their brains, physical strength, and skills because there were very few flaws they could find in each other.

Jade continued the style of the previous round. Her playing style this time was very feminine, even a bit insidious.

“I didn’t expect Jade’s playing style to be so insidious. Interesting!” Adrian enjoyed watching the game very much.

At this time, Evelyn thought that the person opposite was Leonardo, and she had no idea that Adrian had actually found a marksman in advance.

The third round was the most intense one, and it took two full hours to come to an end.

They began to count. This time, the direct broadcasting room instantly exploded!

Evelyn lost to the opponent by a quarter-point!

Evelyn initiated a game invitation again, but Jade rejected it and replied, “It’s too late, maybe next time.”

“How about an offline duel?” Evelyn asked.

“When I’m free,” Jade replied.

She was using Adrian’s account, and if they had an offline duel, Adrian would definitely be exposed. He was no match for Evelyn.

Seeing Adrian go offline, Evelyn’s expression darkened. She was a little displeased, but there was nothing to say. She did lose!

After Jade turned off the computer, she let out a long breath. These three rounds of Go were more tiring than fighting with a peerless master for a day. The mental exhaustion was too serious.

“You’re amazing. I didn’t expect Evelyn to be no match for you!” Adrian sent Jade a message.

“Thank you,” Jade calmly replied. She ignored the redundant messages, leaned back on the chair, and silently thought about the three rounds of games.

It was so interesting to play Go with a master like Evelyn.

Before going offline, Evelyn clicked on Adrian’s page and saw his introduction.

A ferocious smile appeared on her calm face, and she said slowly, “Adrian Evans, how can you humiliate me like this?”

If his skills in go were featureless, what was she?

As a professional player, she lost to him twice!

Wasn’t that a humiliation?

Evelyn remembered this and wanted to get revenge!

Early the next morning, when Evelyn came to the park with a backpack on her back, she saw Adrian teaching Diana and Julian to practice boxing.
