My Genius Sister is Only Seven!?

Chapter 153: Go Exam

Emily was shocked by what she saw. There was a sea of people, and she could only see humans. If it wasn’t for Shen Hao holding her hand, she would have been afraid that she would get lost.

“Millie, this is the Go exam. Go is divided into two major stages, amateur and professional. What I’m going to take you to test is the professional Go player test.”

While listening to Shen Hao’s explanation, Emily observed her surroundings. A large space was divided into several small squares. In each square, there were many tables, and on the tables, there were chessboards.

Every table was exactly the same. There was no difference at all. However, there was a person sitting in front of each table, and that person had a sign hanging on his neck. Sitting upright, Emily was dying of curiosity.

“Why? Are you interested in those Go players?”

Shen Hao followed Emily’s line of sight and looked over. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he continued, “In a while, you will be playing with those people. You will be able to play wherever you can.”

“Fourth Brother, do you mean that I only need to win against them?” Emily was very curious. So those people were her opponents?

“Fourth Brother, so there are actually so many people in the Go level exam every year.” Shen Xu sighed from the bottom of his heart. It was also the first time he had seen such a grand occasion. He had to admit that there were really many people.

“What do you know? Go is also a national treasure, okay? There are naturally many people participating in the exam.” Shen Hao rolled his eyes at Shen Xu unceremoniously.

Shen Xu wanted to argue with Shen Hao, but he found that Shen Hao completely ignored him, so he held Emily’s hand and walked forward.

Shen Hao brought Emily to a place where there were fewer people. The few people were a little older, about 18 or 19 years old. When they saw Shen Yu and Shen Hao holding Emily’s hand, they all looked over curiously. They had never seen anyone bring their younger sister to take part in the exam.

Shen Hao brought Emily to the table of a level 6 Go major. Then, he gently patted Emily’s head. “Go.”

Everyone saw Emily sitting at the Go table. They were all shocked. Could it be that the person taking the exam was this little girl in front of them?

The invigilator was stunned for a moment. He checked the exam list in his hands again and again. After confirming that it was the little girl in front of him, he walked to the side of the Go examiner and whispered a few words in his ear. Then, the examiner made an inviting gesture to Emily.

Emily held the black piece in her hand and made a swift move. In less than ten minutes, the examiner had already stood up and cupped his hands. “You’ve won!”

Just these three words caused an uproar in the audience. Everyone started discussing.

“What? This little girl looks like she’s only five or six years old, but she actually defeated a level six Go player in less than ten minutes?”

“This level six Go player in front of me is fake, right? How could he lose so easily?”

“The girl in front of me is a genius, right?”

“She’s a genius, and she’s so cute. Oh my god, she’s so cute.”

…

There were all sorts of opinions, but Emily did not hear them at all. Instead, she stood up and walked to a chessboard that no one cared about. In front of the chessboard sat an old man with white hair. Even the beard that he was playing with was white, Emily was extremely curious.

“Grandpa, can I play a game with you?” Emily displayed what she thought was the most adorable smile and smiled sweetly at the old man.

“What did I see? She wants to play Go 9-dan?”

“Do you have to be so heaven-defying? You just defeated 6-dan, and you directly jumped a level to challenge 9-dan? The person in front of you is the president of the National Go Association. It’s too heaven-defying.”

“How can he be so powerful? She’ll definitely be defeated soon. When that happens, I don’t know how to coax her even if she cries.”

The person who said these sour words was naturally glared at by Shen Hao and Shen Xu, and he didn’t dare to speak for a moment.

“Little girl, you want to play Go with me?” The white-haired old man stroked his beard and looked at the obedient girl in front of him with a smile.

Emily nodded. “Can I? Grandpa is so bored. There are people playing Go with them at other tables, but Grandpa doesn’t have one here. Can Millie play Go with Grandpa?”

Everyone’s expressions froze. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to play Go with the president, but that they weren’t a match for the president. If they went, they would only be embarrassing themselves. The little girl in front of them was really bold.

The white-haired old man laughed out loud and made a gesture of inviting her. “Since that’s the case, why don’t you play with me?”

In any case, there were no more than five people who came to his position every year. It was better to play with this cute little girl.

“Little girl, do you need me to let you have a few moves?” The president stroked his beard. He felt that if he competed fairly with this girl, wouldn’t he be a bit too much of a bully?

Emily shook her head. “Competition is all about fair competition. Moreover, Grandfather taught me to respect the elderly and love the young. I’m a good child. I don’t want to bully you.”

After saying that, Emily first took the black stone and placed it in the middle of the chessboard. She looked like a newborn calf that was not afraid of death. On the contrary, it attracted more people to stop and watch.
