Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 288 - 195: 1v5, Victory!
As the president of the Go Club, Wu Junming originally planned to use this Go match with the exchange students from Seoul University to show off a bit in front of the school leaders.
Unexpectedly, the exchange students from Seoul University were so fierce, they were at the professional level.
Fortunately, Shen Qiushan won a game, which restored a bit of face.
But now Shen Qiushan wants to hold a "teaching game," a 1V5 challenge.
Wu Junming, having studied Go seriously for over a decade, knew how difficult a teaching game was. Usually, if one could win with just dual focus, it would already be impressive. However, Shen Qiushan directly asked for five games, making the difficulty several times higher.
And even more outrageous, Zhao Changtian actually agreed.
Though Wu Junming kept drumming in his heart, feeling this was unreliable, he didn’t dare go against the school leaders’ wishes, quickly calling the Go Club members to set up four more boards on the side tables.
Seeing this scene.
Zhou Yuan’s live stream chat exploded.
"1V5? Old Shen must be crazy!"
"Teacher Shen is blatantly disrespecting those Rods!"
"Although I hope Old Shen can win, it’s a bit outrageous to open five games at once!"
"When my son was in Go class, the teacher taught him and his classmates like this!"
"If he wins, Old Shen would truly become legendary!"
"Regardless of the outcome, Teacher Shen’s courage is truly admirable!"
"..."
The students watching on-site were in a similar state to the audience in the live stream, seeing that Shen Qiushan was actually going to fight a 1V5, they whispered to each other.
"MD! Uncle Shen is so cool!"
Bao Beibei, who had already found a seat, couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
This Shanghai Young Master, obsessed with showing off, was now utterly worshiping Shen Qiushan, and of course, while worshiping, he also felt mostly envy.
Amidst the potential damage to school and national honor, he stood up resolutely, under everyone’s gaze, 1V5!
How great it would be if this was Bao Beibei’s script!
Then he wouldn’t have to worry about finding a pretty girlfriend!!
Feng Sicong also praised continuously: "Old Shen’s maneuver is truly remarkable!"
"Either remain silent or make an earthquake when you finally speak!"
"Old Zhao, you understand Go, what do you think are Old Shen’s chances of winning?"
He said, looking towards Zhao Hongyu beside him.
"From the previous game, Old Shen was really strong, but I can’t be sure if he’s genuinely several levels above the opponent, or if it was just a coincidence..."
Zhao Hongyu pushed the black-rimmed glasses on his nose, silently replaying the game between Shen Qiushan and Pu Guochang in his mind.
If those beautiful traps were indeed set intentionally by Shen Qiushan, it would be terrifying, as it would mean his strategy started from the very first move.
"Where would there be so many coincidences!"
"I think this is a demonstration of Old Shen’s strength."
Feng Sicong rubbed his hands with expectation: "Hope Old Shen continues to win, thoroughly quelling the arrogance of the Rods!"
Everything is ready.
The unprecedented 1V5 battle begins.
Shen Qiushan alone controls five boards, facing opponents "Rod A," "Rod B," Pu Yiseong, Jin Enjing, and Pu Guochang in sequence.
After the match begins, Shen Qiushan maintains his fast-playing style, barely pausing in front of the five opponents, placing stones and promptly moving on.
Pu Guochang and the others seem to have discussed tactics, with Rod A and Rod B used as "sacrificial pieces," Pu Guochang assigning them the task of playing as fast as possible.
They intended for the two to pressure Shen Qiushan with rapid pace, thereby disrupting his flow.
Unexpectedly, Shen Qiushan not only managed fast play against Pu Guochang alone, even against five people, his speed remained extremely fast, as if a program had been implanted in his brain, requiring no effort to think.
The result of Shen Qiushan’s fast play was that at the start, the five players including Pu Guochang could keep up, but as the board filled with more stones, except for sacrifice pieces Rods A and B, the remaining three’s stone placement speed significantly slowed down.
Even managing five boards simultaneously, Shen Qiushan had to leave time to wait for them.
Seeing this scene, both the live audience and the live stream spectators were astounded.
"Old Shen is too strong!"
"Managing 1V5 with such ease!"
"Anchor, is Old Shen dominating now?"
"Teacher Shen: Hurry up, the flowers I’m waiting for have withered~"
"No wonder Old Shen dared to hold a teaching game, it’s practically a one-sided crush!"
At this moment, the number of online viewers in [Senior Sister Xiaoyuan]’s live stream has exceeded 10,000, including some netizens who understand Go, even some professional players who stumbled upon the live stream paused to watch.
Whether amateur Go enthusiasts or hidden professional players in the stream, upon witnessing Shen Qiushan’s performance, all couldn’t help but shout in admiration!
The previously lively and laughing exchange students from Seoul University now fell silent, the smiles on their faces also vanished.
In their country, Go holds a very high status, almost everyone knows how to play.
Though the exchange students’ levels varied, they could still discern the state of the game.
Clearly, the Hua Country person in the 1V5 had the upper hand!
The smiles didn’t disappear, they just transferred from one group to another!
Zhao Changtian shifted from previously furrowed brows into a beaming state.
He had dealt with Shen Qiushan a few times and his evaluation of this mature top scorer was: smart, steady, resilient, and unconventional!
Just now, since Shen Qiushan dared to propose such a high-difficulty teaching game, it showed he had confidence in his heart.
And Zhao Changtian decided to take a gamble and trust Shen Qiushan!
Now it seems, his gamble was right.
Shen Qiushan indeed had it well under control!
At this moment, the 1V5 situation changed.
One of the five games had already determined a winner, with Rod A suffering a crushing defeat.
There were only four games left!
"Won!"
"Old Shen won the first game!"
Zhou Yuan, who was intently staring at the board, cheered and quickly said to the live stream camera: "Baby fans, Old Shen has already won a game, and now there are four games left, with three of them showing obvious advantages from the current situation..."
"666!"
"Old Shen is awesome!"
"No way, even Go can be this thrilling!"
"Whoever beats Rod, I’ll give a crazy like!"
"As expected of the man who can write ’Three-Body Civilization,’ the thinking ability is astonishingly strong!"
"..."
The comment section frantically scrolled with "666," with netizens showering praise in various styles.
At this time, Rod B couldn’t hold on either and also suffered a crushing defeat like Rod A!
There were only three games left!
The two, initially defined as "decoys" by Pu Guochang, were the first to be eliminated as expected.
However, their attempt to disrupt Shen Qiushan’s rhythm and mess up the game entirely failed.
Instead, with their elimination, the pressure on the remaining three, including Pu Guochang, significantly increased.
Out of five games, Shen Qiushan had already won two.
If the three of them lost one more, it would at most be 2:3!
Directly declaring the five-versus-one a failure!
Pu Guochang, who was originally calm and composed, now had beads of sweat seeping on his forehead, not only due to the pressure from Rod AB’s crushing defeat but also from the stress this game itself brought.
Currently, the situation seemed to be evenly matched, with the battle fiercely contested.
But Pu Guochang, who was in the game, could best feel the tremendous pressure this game brought him. In the last ten moves, he had been led by Shen Qiushan, continuously making moves to "put out fires".
That is to say, the seemingly evenly matched situation had quietly changed, with Shen Qiushan completely taking the lead and gradually establishing an advantage in a piecemeal manner.
Just now, Pu Guochang thought his loss in the first game was due to underestimating the enemy. Now he realized it had nothing to do with underestimating; even without underestimating, he was no match!
Meanwhile, the situation for Pu Yiseong and Jin Enjing was already very clear, both making their last struggles and seeking opportunities for a comeback.
But every move Shen Qiushan made was perfect and flawless.
Pu Yiseong and Jin Enjing couldn’t find a single opportunity.
In the next five minutes, Pu Yiseong and Jin Enjing were defeated in succession.
There was only one game left!
"4:0!"
"Old Shen has already won four games!"
"Now there’s only one game left, and judging from the current situation, Old Shen’s chances of winning are already very large, babies, type [Go Old Shen] on the public screen..."
Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Zhou Yuan’s little face flushed.
Meanwhile, her live stream had over 50,000 online viewers, with her personal fast sound account followers skyrocketing from over 700 before going live to over 7,000, a tenfold increase.
While the live content was indeed attracting attention, Zhou Yuan’s own great appeal also became a magic weapon for gaining followers.
After all, what man doesn’t like a sweet-looking yet full-hearted beautiful university student?
After Zhou Yuan’s callout, comments like [Go Old Shen] and [Old Shen is awesome] filled the public screen.
Since only one game was left, it was particularly quiet in the multi-functional classroom. Everyone was intensely focused on the electronic screen, breathing cautiously as if afraid of disturbing Shen Qiushan, who was defending with all his might.
"I lost."
With the game beyond redemption, Pu Guochang sighed gloomily and could only choose to concede.
Wow!!
Seeing Pu Guochang voluntarily concede, the multi-functional classroom erupted instantly.
Old Shen is awesome!
Old Shen is powerful!
The students onlookers shouted excitedly. In their eyes, Go was originally quite a boring sport, but today it actually got them as fired up as watching football or basketball.
Zhao Changtian also nodded continuously and even punched the air in excitement. Truly, when you thought there was no way out, a brilliant village appeared!
He initially thought that today’s Go exchange would result in a miserable loss for Sanjiang University.
Unexpectedly, Shen Qiushan suddenly turned the tide single-handedly.
Moreover, it wasn’t just about reversing the defeat, but this 1V5 game of Shen Qiushan would definitely be widely spread and become a legend.
