So it is Brother Qi; apologies for any disrespect.
Jun Mo Xie bowed slightly.

The art of chess is originally merely a minor and insignificant talent. There is no harm using it for treating the soul. But if it’s used for a competition to show who is superior, it is rather unsuitable… Brother Mo moved everyone’s souls with a single tune; you’re a person of refined temperament. Could you go for a round with me? Winning or losing is unimportant; just doing your best would suffice.
Qi Wan Jie smiled and said.
His name was originally
Qi Wan Jie 1
 
, but after he became famous, he changed his name to Qi Wan Jie, changing the original character of Jie to Jie 2
 , suggesting his constant permutability in the game of chess, his hundreds and thousands of twists and tribulations that were impossible to be figured out by others. Of course, this change in the character of his name also revealed his arrogance.
Jun Mo Xie couldn’t help but sneer internally. Looks like this fellow is one of their main forces for dealing with me, and this fellow is probably be adept at calculation and has a hypocritical temperament…

All of these were conveyed from his one single sentence alone.


You claim to say that ‘if it’s used for competition to show who is superior, it is rather unsuitable…’, yet you request that I ‘go for a round with you’? And even winning or losing is unimportant, so doing my best would suffice!

Since it’s a battle of chess, if there is no desire to win, then how can victory be determined? Especially in the game of chess, one has to fuss over every minor matter to be able to calculate their position, figure out their advantages and disadvantages and adapt to it…

It’s considered rather impressive to be capable of being so hypocritical at such a young age ah!

This person is a hypocrite. But this Young Master has met plenty of hypocrites. Li You Ran’s skills, for example, are way higher than yours, and Li You Ran is so much more honest. What is this!


That would be natural. Brother Qi is not wrong at all; I deeply feel the same. The art of chess is indeed the deepest form of study, but it is just merely an insignificant talent within a small square. Its name truly follows its merit.
Of course, Jun Mo Xie didn’t think this way. The art of chess was not some insignificant talent and was even capable of obtaining national glory in the present days…
But he had to continue the conversation like this. Because Jun Mo Xie felt pissed at the sight of this squinty-eyes before him!
You want to help the Zhan Brothers to defeat me, so just do it openly! Why are you still pretending to be all sanctimonious and spouting so much bullshit… You just want to disgust this Young Master don’t you… If I don’t properly hit you with some blows, wouldn’t I be letting all these pretense of yours down?

Qi Wan Jie… Fck, I’ll just let you ‘Finish all together’ 3
 , let you completely be finished here…

To dare to play schemes with this daddy, just watch if this daddy plays you till your death!


However, I am not very well versed in the skills of chess and only learnt it for a couple of months not long ago. But… since Brother Qi says that it’s merely some insignificant skills and tricks, then I shall entertain Brother Qi. After all, its just to treat the self and soul and not about winning or losing. I believe I am still capable of winning,
Young Master Jun said.



Brother Mo sure is humorous… Since Brother Mo also agrees that the art of chess is an insignificant skills, then please don’t blame me for not showing any mercy.
A cold gleam appeared in Qi Wan Jie’s eyes, but he still maintained his poise as he said this in reply indifferently.

Oh? Not showing any mercy? Brother Qi is a gentlemen, an honest person who doesn’t do anything in the dark. Just that I have a question in advance. If I blame you for not showing any mercy… Then will you show me any mercy?
Jun Mo Xie asked sarcastically.

When facing someone like Brother Mo, I believe no one will show mercy.
Qi Wan Jie was getting impatient. This Mo Jun Ye is truly too detestable! I was just trying to speak in a humble manner just now, you’re now trying to go overboard…


Is that so? Brother Qi’s words really make me upset. I originally thought that you were the supreme chess champion, so naturally you’d be above others in your behavior. Even if you can’t do things open and candidly, it wouldn’t be untrustworthy. But I did not imagine that what you’ve said just now was as if you were letting out a fart… Other people who let out a fart will only stink for a while, but you actually even swallowed it right back… I’m truly impressed ah… This sort of skill is truly number one in the world, as expected of the chess champion. You have a fully justified reputation ah, truly, knowing somebody by their reputation can’t compare to meeting them in person. I truly admire and am impressed, I can’t compare ah…

Jun Mo Xie noticed that he had already successfully destroyed his frame of mind, so naturally he’d take the opportunity to continue dealing flows. The frame of mind was the most important in the art of chess; if the mental state was not stable, even the best national player can lose to a child who had just began playing chess… This was nothing too bizarre…

Mo Jun Ye!
A look of anger appeared across Qi Wan Jie’s face.
Let’s wait and see who will be utterly defeated and destroyed!


Utterly defeated and destroyed? That sounds a little serious. I only have one thing to say; little brother, you’re not allowed to cry if you lose, ah!
Jun Mo Xie said in an extremely serious tone.
Although you are still young, but in this sort of occasion, if you cry because you lost, it’ll really not look good…

Qi Wan Jie’s face was turning white, and he scoffed heavily. At this moment, one of his followers behind him had already prepared the chessboard and pieces. He stopped bothering with Jun Mo Xie and walked over to the chessboard.
Clearly he could no longer wait to torture this Free and Natural Physique in a game of chess!
I don’t care if you have the Free and Natural Physique, but you offend me, I will not leave you with any face! Especially when Second Young Master Zhan promised me a huge mansion, the position of the Chess Superintendent of the Chess Institution of the Misty Illusory Manor, and four great beauties waiting to be my concubines… All these I must obtain!


I want to have it! I want success! So I must step over your body!

Get ready to be my stepping stone, legendary prodigy!

Jun Mo Xie may look completely calm, but right now, he was a little nervous. He had only grazed the surface of chess when he was training; although his power of understanding was not too shabby and his abilities at the game were not weak, it was still far from professional players.
With Young Master Jun’s real standard, in the current world of chess, he was only slightly above average standards. There was no problem in dealing with most people, but it’d be difficult for him to obtain victory in competing with real experts of chess.
This achievement was thanks to that old geezer and his death threatening methods in Jun Mo Xie’s previous life. That old thing has insanely high standards of the so-called qualified assassins. Requesting of them to be able to be familiar with mass-oriented skills and sufficiently well-versed in less common knowledge… Only in this way, under any sort of condition and circumstance, they would be able to perfectly conceal themselves and silently get rid of the target… But that sort of expectations is practically beyond what humans are capable of…

Because Jun Xie from the previous life also did not manage to complete all this in reality. He could only complete seventy percent of the training the old geezer had arranged…
The old geezer only has one wish—to create an ultimate legend in the world of assassins! Even if that legend decides to stop being an assassin someday, aside from putting down his weapons, he could go and become a doctoral advisor to any subject at any university…
Anyone who heard of this would understand that this was a completely insane and perverse and terrifying plan!
The four arts, poetry, wine, tea, the three religions and nine schools, medicine and divination, farmland and water conservancy, the eight major subjects, physics, chemistry… fck me…

Even now, Jun Mo Xie got a headache recalling all of it!


But after coming to this other world, at the same time as Jun Mo Xie had this headache, he still had boundless gratitude for the cruel training back then… If not for the old geezer forcing him to learn all this with his life, he definitely wouldn’t be able to do so well. Even with the best cheating tool, the Hongjun Pagoda, it wouldn’t work. Without the basic foundations, he’d just be blind and confused with the most invincible martial art manuals…
At least, right now, he was feeling a little regretful. Why didn’t I properly learn chess back then? If I had reached the mid-levels of professional standards, then there would be no need for me to make hasty last-minute efforts today. The game today seems to be a little difficult ah…

Faced with this seasoned young chess champion of the Misty Illusory Manor, what should I do to defeat him? No matter how bad this person’s standards are, even if he is low according to the standards of this world, it’ll be considered professional level at the very least! With my own real strength, the chances seem to be really bleak ah!

Jun Mo Xie suddenly recalled a sentence the old geezer often used to say back then. In chess, there are moves within the game, but there are also moves outside of the game ah… 
He couldn’t help but feel his heart skip a beat.
Looking at Qi Wan Jie who had already settled down into his seat before the chessboard, Jun Mo Xie suddenly gave a peculiar grin.
Brother Qi, are you prepared? A game of chess is a refined activity of the intellectuals. You must be open handed in your acts. You are known as the chess champion of the current generation in the Misty Illusory Manor. If you unfortunately lose in the hands of a nobody like me, it’ll really be ugly ah… Hahaha… Your legendary reputation will all be going down the drain ah…


I don’t need you to worry about it!
Qi Wan Jie looked at him darkly.
I believe that my reputation is not easily threatened by any random cats or dogs!


Is that so? Brother Qi, you sure are confident ah… Back then, when I was outside playing chess with the Xuan Xuan Continent’s Chess Saint Hua Wu Cuo, Hua Wu Cuo once said a single line that I still remember clearly to this day ah…


What? You’ve played against Hua Wu Cuo? What did he say?
Qi Wan Jie’s expression turned serious, and a look of nervousness finally appeared on his calm and tranquil face.
Hua Wu Cuo, the Chess Saint of his own generation in the Xuan Xuan Continent, had gained his reputation as a youth, upholding it for over two hundred years and had never been defeated! If the Nine Nether First Young Master was the legend of Xuan Skills in the Xuan Xuan Continent, this person was the legend in the art of chess in the Xuan Xuan Continent!
As an expert of chess, no matter how arrogant Qi Wan Jie was, he would not dare to talk bad towards this Saint of Chess. But now that he had heard that this owner of the Free and Natural Physique actually had played against Hua Wu Cuo, his heart couldn’t help but sink. Could it be that this Mo Jun Ye is really well-versed in the art of chess? Then how good are his skills? Someone who has the right to play against Hua Wu Cuo is definitely not to be belittled.


At this point in time, Qi Wan Jie completely kept away all his belittlement, and his intention to fight began to rise. His gaze was fixed on Young Master Jun.

Oh? I said that I once played against Hua Wu Cuo. Why did Brother Qi believe it so easily? What if I had intentionally used his name to oppress you?
Jun Mo Xie asked, narrowing his eyes.
