The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 228
Advertisement
After five minutes, Yang Dao reached the end of the course and then drove back. On the way, he shot down every target with full accuracy. How did he do this? We can talk about it later, but let us watch how the opponents played.
Yang Dao came out of the track and the people clapped for his performance. The boy smiled and bowed slightly. He came to Kaya and gave her the gun he borrowed from her. He said, "This is a good gun."
Kaya smiled as she heard his words. The referee gave the go signal, and the car departed. Continuous shots rang out on the course. The driving was perfect, and the shots were well-timed as well, yet the screen that displayed the time and shots landed showed the difference completely.
Yang Dao completed the course in 5 minutes and 13 seconds. While The wolf squad took 5 minutes and 17 seconds. The former landed twenty shots, only one of his shots landed on half of the bull's eye dot. The rest were dead on the spot. The wolf squad had also landed all the shots, but they were not dead spot accurate.
The referee compared all the results in front of the spectators and said, "The winner for this round is Captain Feng Yang Dao, White Tiger Squad." his words made the people surprised and impressed at the same time.
Many people did not understand how Yang Dao did it. The bearded Wolf Squad commander Gerrard said, "Don't be too happy we still have two more rounds to go." with a snort he led his team away.
Talen asked, "Dao, spill the beans. How did you do it?"
Yang Dao scratched the back of his head and under the scrutiny of everyone, he said, "Well, I baited them. Even though the two people have been with each other for a long time, they still have not learned each other's skills. So for instance, if Senior Victor is driving and Senior Kaya is shooting the targets. Senior Kaya cannot know how much the car will drag and how much whiplash she will suffer from the acceleration.

Similarly, senior Victor also can not judge how much he needs to steer so that the target will line up with the gun while saving the time on the course."
His explanation was sound, and the people marveled at how this boy can come up with such a mental strategy. Some gloated at the wolf squad for such foolishness. They wondered if they will puke some blood if they found out the cunning of this boy.
After this round was done, the next was a chess match between the two people. It was not normal chess. The survival expert of the squads was also the in-charge of plans and strategies after the general. So they selected this game. After all, it may take them a few days to judge based on their survival skills and they will have to go to the wild.
So strategizing became a crucial factor in judging a squad's talent.
...
In a wide hall with chess tables placed over neatly, many people gathered a table. Yang Dao was playing chess with a man with squinty eyes. This person gave off a cruel vibe, well to survive in tragedies and the mission one has to be cruel. However, the cruel person was frowning.
This person followed a strategy of rules. His moves were completely out of a textbook and given the resolution with which he played every move, this person was an earth elemental. Yang Dao, on the contrary, was very relaxed. His strategy was a mess but except for a few pawns, none of his major pieces were captured by the man.
The person picked up his queen in placed her on a square to checkmate Yang Dao in the next move. However, the Dao child smiled brightly, and he moved his knight. Putting it in a positing where the queen will be captured or the rook will be captured. It was a sure-to capture move. The opponent frowned.

He was disappointed as to him this move was useless, but the next moment he froze. When he looked at the board, he was shocked. No matter how he moved, Yang Dao will capture his pieces. He calculated, but the result was still the same. The man sighed after a minute of move time. he said, "You win. I resign this game."
All the strategy experts were surprised. They were taken aback because they did not notice Yang Dao's setup. The opponent was called Graham. He asked, "What is this play?"
The Dao Child smiled and said, "The orderly chaos. Played by Raymond Lancaster against grandmaster Lennon Harting, two hundred years ago. he lost in the end."
Graham was surprised. He could not believe that he lost to a kid that too when he used an already defeated strategy. He asked, "How did you win if it is a beatable strategy? Lennon Harting is also known as the finest textbook player and I follow his style."
Yes, correct, that was why he was so shocked. Yang Dao smiled and said, "You, Sir follow Lennon Harting but are not Lennon Harting himself. The reason you lost is that your ways are too rigid. The game we play is a reference to a mission we perform. Life is unpredictable and so is the mission, so how can a fixed set of moves work every time?"
He stood up and left the room. The referee had announced his win already. Graham was left seated in the hall pondering over what Yang Dao said. Outside the hall. Yang Dao's reputation spread like a wildfire. The last round was an Elementalist battle. The contenders will fight using their elemental skills.
Yang Dao had not yet revealed his strength to the other people. and his opponent was a fire Elementalist. Some people said that this upcoming match had attracted the higher up's attention as well.
