We won?

We really won?

When they heard that on the Central TV Sports Channel live broadcast, all of the television viewers sprang up from their seats and stared at the screen in shock, watching as Zhang Ye and Peter played out the endgame 1 . It wasn’t over yet, and many people were still unsure whether Chen Ying 7-dan’s claims were true!

One stone.

Five stones.

Ten stones.

Zhang Ye kept smiling.

But Peter’s moves were getting more and more pathetic as it started making more and more mistakes!

The moment the match ended, the two international referees fast walked over to verify the game!

The Americans were pale as a sheet of paper!

The room fell eerily silent!

…

Japan.

“The game’s over!”

“It’s ended!”

How was it?”

“Who won?”

…

Korea.

“What are things like?”

“How did it go?”

“Hurry up and announce the result already!”

…

Over in China, people were even more interested!

“Has he won?”

“Quickly announce the result!”

“Damn, what exactly is the result?”

…

In the game room.

As this was a very crucial match, the international referees had to verify the game several times before finally giving each other a look. The older referee of the two gave a slight smile.

The camera focused on him!

Thousands and thousands of people were watching him on their televisions!

They heard the older referee announce, “In this game, Zhang Ye is victorious!”

2-1!

Zhang Ye had won!

Humanity won!

And he even won by more than 20 points!

In the endgame, Zhang Ye took an overwhelming victory by making a comeback from more than 30 points down to win the game by over 20 points. It was truly a miracle!

Yu Yingyi shouted, “We’ve won! We’ve won!”

Chen Ying was still sobbing. “Congratulations, Professor Zhang! This is a historic victory for the Go world! Professor Zhang has helped the Go world safeguard the honor of humanity! He is amazing! Professor Zhang was amazing today! This has got to be the highest level of Go achieved by humans! This has got to be the most unforgettable match of the entire international world of Go! After three days of competition, Professor Zhang has defeated the AI by a score of two to one! Professor Zhang has used the most practical of actions to show machines and those arrogant Americans that humans are unbeatable in Go!”

Arrogant Americans?

The director quickly cautioned Chen Ying through her earpiece!

But Chen Ying was already feeling so fired up that she could no longer contain herself. How could she be bothered with using the proper courtesy? She could only use shouting to express herself!

…

At the Xuanwumen Go Club for the elderly.

A middle-aged man threw the game record in his hands into the air!

An old man looked at the screen all atremble. He was crying!

“We’ve won!”

“Zhang Ye has won!”

“Victory is ours! It’s ours!”

…

At home.

His mother let out an excited shout!

His father couldn’t contain his excitement either!

“My son won!”

“Little Ye defeated the computer!”

…

At Old Rao’s house.

Yang Shu shouted so loudly that the entire apartment complex could hear her!

“Senior Bro wooooon!”

Rao Aimin rolled her eyes. “That kid really won?”

…

At the SARFT.

Wu Zeqing called Secretary Bai over with a smile.

“Chief Wu?”

“I’ll be treating everyone for lunch.”

“Ah, alright.”

…

At Old Yao’s house.

Yao Mi yelled, “He snatched victory from the jaws of defeat! Oh my God!”

Yao Jiancai’s wife said, “Little Zhang really did it!”

“He’s ascending!” Yao Jiancai’s jaw dropped!

…

The live broadcast was still filming!

Chaos reigned at the venue. The moment the result was announced, someone pushed open the door to the game room from outside. Then China Qiyuan’s people started streaming in. Wu Changhe, Li Qinqin, Dan Donghe, Li Yi, and Liu Hong were all looking pleasantly surprised!

Zhang Ye stood up and waved at everyone.

He was instantly surrounded by the group of excited people!

Wu Changhe asked loudly, “What are those josekis called?”

Zhang Ye laughed and said, “They’re the Great Slant, Magic Sword, and Avalanche Josekis.”

Dan Donghe asked, “What about that playstyle at the end?”

Zhang Ye smiled and said, “It’s called the Zombie Style.”

“What a great Zombie Style! What a great Zombie Style!” Wu Changhe’s voice was trembling with excitement. No one could stop laughing. “Hahahahahaha!”

Li Qinqin said, “Little Zhang, you’re the best!”

Zhang Ye smiled and said, “It was quite a close call; I nearly lost the game. Fortunately, I did not disgrace everyone.”

All of a sudden, in the focus of the live broadcast camera.

Hu Liang took a step forward and grabbed Zhang Ye!

Xu Han swiftly followed!

Tian Weiwei also rushed over!

Over a dozen young people lifted Zhang Ye up at once. No one knew if they had discussed this beforehand or thought of it spontaneously.

Zhang Ye was startled by this. “Hey, hey, hey, take it easy! Take it easy!”

But they ignored him and suddenly tossed him high!

Zhang Ye was scared out of his wits, but everyone was cheering!

“Zhang Ye!”

“Zhang Ye!”

“Zhang Ye!”

“Zhang Ye!”

They threw him into the air!

Then they caught him!

Then they threw him into the air again!

Many of the pro players expressed their excitement in their own way!

“We’ve won!”

“We’ve really won!”

A few female players off to the side were wiping their tears away as they cried with joy. They felt too emotional and did not know how to describe their feelings. Perhaps only by crying could they show their most sincerest of feelings. It was probably also the most direct response they could muster! A lot of people were crying!

Even Dan Donghe couldn’t help but tear up a little when he saw this!

No one could control their emotions!

Because it was so incredible they couldn’t control themselves!

Shinji 9-dan!

Park Yuhee!

Xiang Rong!

All of the top Go players had fallen to this artificial intelligence. Just as humanity was staring at a crushing defeat, Zhang Ye stepped forward and single-handedly saved the Go world after much difficulty. Witnessing this scene, not only did the blood of those in the Go world race, even the television viewers felt fired up and passionate!

The netizens started flooding the servers with their comments!

The flood of comments was so great that it could even turn the Heavens upside down!

“This is so awesome!”

“Zhang Ye, you’re so cool!”

“Damn, I didn’t like him that much in the past, but today, I’ve turned from passerby into fan! I’m even going to be a diehard fan!”

“Face-smacking Zhang has shown his prowess again! I knew he wouldn’t be pushed around so easily! Who is Zhang Ye? When has this fellow ever been at a disadvantage?! An AI? And it’s even an upgraded version? So what if it has been upgraded! Didn’t it still get its face smacked swollen by Face-smacking Zhang all the same! Look at the faces of those Americans!”

“This release feels so good!”

“This is so fun!”

“No one else could do something like this! Zhang Ye is amazing!”

“There hasn’t been anyone like Zhang Ye in showbiz for the past 500 years, nor will there be another person like him in the next 500 years!”

“Face-smacking Zhang has left Peter in tears in China!”

“Zhang Ye is indeed the better of the two!”

“My idol! Zhang Ye is definitely going to be my idol for life!”

“I want to learn Go!”

“Me too, I’m suddenly very interested in it!”

“Although I don’t know how to play Go, tears were inexplicably rolling down my cheeks from watching the game and listening to the commentary on TV! It was so exciting! Teacher Zhang is a real blessing to mankind. Everyone, please don’t criticize him in the future! Otherwise, if we encounter this kind of situation again in the future, who would want to step forward for us? Who could turn things around like Teacher Zhang has done? Other than him, no one’s capable of doing so! Don’t you guys agree?”

“Agreed!”

“Well-spoken! There’s nothing wrong with it!”

“Right, let’s not criticize him in the future!”

“Just based on this war between humans and machines, I will support all of Zhang Ye’s future works!”

“Teacher Zhang was really fucking cool today!”

“Today, Zhang Ye is the hero of the Go world!”
