Chapter 998: Chapter 998: The Great Battle Begins (3rd Update) Chapter 998: Chapter 998: The Great Battle Begins (3rd Update) This tone, it was as though he was talking to a junior disciple.

But Gong Changyue stood there, not showing any trace of anger, instead, he was utterly respectful.

At this point, the other participants had also gradually finished their matches.

As expected, Zhuge Xuanqing won effortlessly,

and Jing Tianrui also crushed his opponent.

Especially Jing Tianrui, who now was full of pride, feeling extremely happy.

Because with this, thirty chess masters had been eliminated, half of them, and nearly all were from the outer regions.

The only one left was probably Zhuge Xuanqing.

Calculating in his mind, he turned to speak, only to be shocked by the scene before him.

He saw Gong Changyue and Xue An standing together.

while his own subordinate, Di Yuanlong, sat there looking utterly dejected.

“What happened?” Jing Tianrui asked in shock.

“Sir… I lost!” Di Yuanlong said with extreme shame.

“Lost… lost?” Jing Tianrui’s eyes widened.

“Yes!” Di Yuanlong nodded.

Jing Tianrui gasped.

He never expected that his subordinate would lose to Gong Changyue.

And it seemed that this Mr. Xue had also passed the third round and successfully advanced to the next.

What the hell was going on?

Jing Tianrui was furious, his gaze towards Xue An began to change.

If previously he had looked down on Xue An with disdain, now it was pure hatred.

The most frightened person in the arena was none other than Cai Yongxin.

Initially thinking that Xue An was merely boasting, Cai Yongxin turned pale when he saw Xue An defeat another opponent and advance to the fourth round.

After some calculation, Cai Yongxin gritted his teeth and whispered a few words to his father, the Patriarch of the Cai Family.

The Patriarch of the Cai Family thought for a moment and eventually nodded.

At this moment, Zhuge Xuanqing also noticed this scene, her expression also became somewhat complex.

But before she could react, Gong Changyue took a deep breath, stepped forward, and smiled, “Miss Zhuge, I have lived up to your expectations. I have won against Di Yuanlong and successfully advanced to the fourth round, preserving the Gong Family’s reputation!”

Advancing to the fourth round was considered achieving a rank in the competition, and no one could deny that it was a good performance.

Especially for the Gong Family, who had scored zero in the previous competition, this achievement was particularly valuable.

But Zhuge Xuanqing felt somewhat unusual, not just because of that; she always felt that the Gong Changyue standing before her had changed a lot.

He seemed… more confident.

However, now was not the time to dwell on these matters. Zhuge Xuanqing glanced at the remaining chess masters, her expression turned solemn, and then walked up to Xue An and said in a deep voice.

“Mr. Xue, now among the remaining chess masters, only we three from the outer regions are left. So, I think we need to be well-prepared! Otherwise…”

Xue An chuckled lightly, “Otherwise what?”

Zhuge Xuanqing looked up, her eyes filled with a trace of worry as she gazed into the distance at Jing Tianrui.

“Otherwise, we might all stand no chance against this Jing Tianrui!”

In fact, from the moment she saw Jing Tianrui, Zhuge Xuanqing felt somewhat uneasy.

She could see through Jing Tianrui three years ago.

But now, after three years, she could no longer see through him.

This change made Zhuge Xuanqing feel a sense of foreboding.

This was also why she lacked confidence.

Xue An merely laughed, his laughter unbridled and wild, “Is that the reason? Well then, leave this guy to me!”

Zhuge Xuanqing was taken aback and then looked at Xue An with peculiar eyes. After a moment, she finally said coldly, “Do you even know what you’re talking about?”

Xue An smiled and nodded, “Of course!”

Zhuge Xuanqing frowned, her previous favorable impression of Xue An vanished in an instant.

“I know you’re probably quite strong, but don’t forget, this Jing Tianrui is called the Young Chess King in Tian Zhao Star Domain, so he must have his strengths! Moreover, having gone through three years of closed-door training and guidance from the Chess Saint, what his strength has become, even I can’t tell, but you…”

Zhuge Xuanqing didn’t finish her sentence, but the implication was clear, hinting at Xue An’s arrogance.

To this, Xue An merely smiled indifferently, “I don’t care about that, all I know is… the championship is mine, and no one can change what I say!”

“You…” Zhuge Xuanqing burst into anger, but soon, she forcibly calmed herself down and then coldly glanced at Xue An and walked away.

She thought Xue An was utterly insane.

Only when you truly face him would you understand the terror of a Tian Zhao chess master, Zhuge Xuanqing thought to herself.

After a short rest, the fourth round of the competition was about to begin.

At that moment.

Suddenly, the Patriarch of the Cai Family, who had also passed the first three rounds, stood up, walked up to Jing Tianrui, and bowed.

“Mr. Jing, our Cai Family has long admired your strength, so in this competition, we concede!”

Boom!

The crowd was startled.

Some chess masters from other regions stomped their feet.

“What a shameless scoundrel!”

Gong Changyue’s face turned furious, “Cai Family, have you not considered the consequences?”

Cai Yongxin sneered, “Gong Changyue, we have long admired Mr. Jing and willingly admit defeat. Is that any of your business?”

“You…” Gong Changyue was livid with anger.

Jing Tianrui, however, burst into laughter, “Good, very good! The Patriarch of the Cai Family truly knows the times!”

After this episode, the atmosphere in the venue became even more tense.

With the withdrawal of the Cai Family, only fourteen chess masters remained in the competition.

And once the drawing of the lots was over.

The venue erupted into intense turmoil.

Zhuge Xuanqing’s opponent turned out to be Jing Tianrui.

Was this century battle finally about to begin?

Many people looked serious.

Jing Tianrui then grinned at Zhuge Xuanqing, “Miss Zhuge, it’s been three years, and I’m truly looking forward to playing against you again!”

Zhuge Xuanqing remained silent, simply sitting beside the chessboard and coldly said, “Guess first!”

The game began once again.

But this time, almost everyone’s eyes were on Zhuge Xuanqing’s side.

Especially all the chess masters from other regions, their hearts hanging in their throats.

For them, Zhuge Xuanqing was their last pillar.

If she lost, then no one could stop Jing Tianrui anymore.

In comparison, the other matches seemed irrelevant.

Xue An’s opponent this time was a cringing man, whose style of play was as sleazy as his demeanor.

But as sleazy as he was, Xue An’s style of play was ten times sleazier.

In no time, Xue An had played his disgustingly sleazy chess and totally disoriented the other player.

But just as the game was heating up, Xue An suddenly shook his head and sighed.

“I lost!”
