Chapter 3, there is no need to waste words on such despicable individuals

Henry was dumbfounded: "What the hell..."

Disperse your forces, do not engage in team fights with Lin Feng, send your rogues to steal towers, while the mages and warriors engage the enemy on the lane, slow down the pace, your rogues still have room for growth, while he does not

Although she felt anger in her heart, facing a student like Lin Feng, Kelly found it impossible to confront him directly and could only softly ask Henry first

That said, Henry's movements in manipulating the chess pieces slowed down somewhat, clearly waiting for Kelly's assistance

Before Wang Wu took over the game, Lin Feng indeed had four pieces left. However, shortly after taking over, one piece mysteriously disappeared. It is true that Wang Wu has a high suspicion of cheating. Yet, no one saw how he managed to steal that piece; it seemed to vanish into thin air under the watchful eyes of everyone. Moreover, from another perspective, this is the Tower Capture game of the Dream Builders, where cheating is not so easily accomplished. If one were to forcibly take an opponent's piece, it would not only trigger an alarm but could also lead to a backlash. So what exactly happened?

With a sigh, Kelly was about to turn back when she heard Lin Feng say, "This is Kelly, who was very enthusiastic in giving advice behind Henry just now."

Hmph. Lin Feng had a slight understanding of the intruder, Wang Wu.

You fool, you can't even endure such a simple provocation. Even I, the direct victim, haven't said anything, so why are you so angry! You have truly caused great trouble for the entire class

After speaking, Lin Feng deliberately cast a provocative glance at Kelly. He felt a certain curiosity towards this talented young woman from a prestigious noble background. The elite who earned the title of genius at Yangcheng Academy were almost always monopolized by the blue-blood families. Without the foundation and accumulation of those century-old families, it is difficult for ordinary families to produce exceptionally gifted dream-weavers. Even a large population base does not suffice. The elite who earned the title of genius at Yangcheng Academy were almost always monopolized by the blue-blood families. Without the foundation and accumulation of those century-old families, it is difficult for ordinary families to produce exceptionally gifted dream-weavers. Even a large population base does not suffice

After counting multiple times, Lin Feng finally confirmed that one of his four pieces on the chessboard was inexplicably missing at some point

Sigh, I really shouldn't have come to meddle in this trivial matter today

Although it has long been known that Lin Feng is even more arrogant than Henry, is he out of his mind like this now? He is only about twelve or thirteen years old!

This is the blue-blooded aristocracy

Bang

As soon as Wang Wu shouted, everyone's attention was drawn to him. Under the gaze of dozens of people, Kelly truly wanted to cry. Although she had long known that Wang Wu sometimes lacked common sense, how could he actually take the opportunity to kick her when she was down at this moment? Were they not classmates? Were they not good friends?

While Lin Feng was searching for the lost chess piece, lost in thought, Wang Wu had already launched an all-out attack against the opponent. With his exquisite maneuvers, he managed to overcome the odds and captured one of Lin Feng's pieces, instantly leveling the situation to two against two.

At the other end of the chessboard, Lin Feng appeared calm and composed, resting his chin on one hand, a victorious smile radiating from his face as he looked up defiantly at the group of students from Class Four who were watching.

Then there was a chorus of exclamations and sighs, which Kelly heard clearly; those who were lamenting were mostly from her class

I never expected Wang Wu to come and join the excitement as well. Kelly, without looking back, weakly explained: "Did you not see? Our class's number one genius lost a chess bet!"

"You cheated!" After much contemplation, Lin Feng arrived at this conclusion. In a fit of anger, he pointed his finger at Wang Wu's nose and exclaimed, "You stole my chess piece!"

At this point, even if the Chess Saint were to possess someone, it would be futile; Kelly was so furious that she kept stomping her feet

That fool

Hey! You two should not take matters into your own hands...

This Lin Feng is indeed not an easy person to get along with

Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly heard Wang Wu's voice behind her

The situation took a sudden turn, completely beyond Lin Feng's expectations. The chess skills displayed by Wang Wu just moments ago were superior to those of any opponent Lin Feng had faced before, and he realized that he had indeed underestimated his opponent.

Good, we won

Before Lin Feng could speak, Wang Wu had already reached out to touch the control area of the chessboard, then smiled at Lin Feng and said, "It's four to two, don't tell me you're afraid to play"

What is this for

Taking advantage of others' misfortunes, Lin Feng particularly enjoys such matters, which he consistently refers to as the aftertaste of victory. Even after entering a prestigious institution like Yangcheng Academy, where talents abound, he continues to savor this aftertaste.

Lin Feng slammed the table in anger, his fury rising to the top of his head. The onlookers were abuzz with discussion, utterly perplexed. In the midst of it all, only the party involved, Wang Wu, remained with his gaze lowered, his attention fully focused on the chessboard.

Stay away from me, you idiot

"Wipe it all away?" Lin Feng repeated softly, then stared at the other party with an incredulous expression, "Stop dreaming. Relying on such despicable means as cheating, you have fundamentally lost!"

Indeed, Henry heard Kelly's instructions and quickly changed his tactics. The three pieces that had gathered in one place immediately dispersed, no longer engaging in direct confrontation with the opponent. Instead, he relied on the remaining strategic depth to buy time, allowing his rogue pieces to roam freely, exerting pressure and gaining experience.

The thought of Henry's defeat meant that the entire class would bear the label of fools for a month. Kelly felt that her future was bleak and dim, and she could only swallow the humiliating words that Lin Feng had just uttered. It truly made her feel as if her chest was about to explode just thinking about it

Oh

Although Henry and Lin Feng are both only eleven or twelve years old, their chess skills are not lacking. The competition on the chessboard is quite captivating for some like-minded individuals. However, the atmosphere today is charged with tension, greatly deviating from the principle of prioritizing friendship over competition.

I will kill you, you shameless scoundrel

In his view, the game has lost all suspense; the opponent is left with only two pieces and lacks the developed late-game strength. Could they still hope to contend against his four...! ... Hmm! ?

Lin Feng was quite certain that his gaze had hardly left the chessboard, especially with so many spectators around, how could anyone casually take his pieces? However, he was both astonished and furious, yet could not make sense of it. At that moment... "Now we are even with the - picture - book"

Kelly sighed inwardly: I don't want to clean up after this idiot every time, but I can't resist when they plead... This time, however, she had no idea how to handle it.

How can you be so clumsy, unable to even stand steadily

Tilting his head to avoid the spit that Lin Feng had sprayed, Wang Wu let out a soft sigh: "You are truly shameless."

The Lin family scion, who has always presented himself with elegance and composure, finally found himself unable to contain his anger. Lin Feng felt a surge of rage, his vision turning blood red, wishing he could tear the person before him, a resident of Penglai, into a thousand pieces

Upon seeing Kelly approach, Lin Feng was slightly taken aback, and then his smile gradually unfolded: "It's you? How interesting, it seems I can meet you every time."

"Is it appearing so frequently to deliberately attract my attention? Ha, although your status is somewhat lacking, your looks and talent are quite decent, so you can barely catch my eye! Very well, starting today, you shall follow me..."

How are you? Do you need help

In this regard, over the next month, I hope you can be more self-disciplined. To be honest, I do not think my requirements are particularly harsh. Considering the performance of your class during this period, to say it is foolish would actually be an understatement.

Without needing to look at the chessboard, Kelly knew that Henry was certainly at a disadvantage again. That fool never considers that if the opponent did not have absolute confidence in victory, would they dare to challenge him publicly? His willingness to embarrass himself is his own business, but he always drags others down with him. Compared to Wang Wu, who frequently slows down progress, Henry is not exactly a walk in the park either. Separating the crowd, Kelly walked to the core area of the onlookers, where a large dining table was set with an exquisite chessboard. Henry and a frail boy with long black hair sat at opposite ends of the board, their gazes locked on each other, and the air was thick with tension.

When Kelly arrived, she happened to hear a somewhat sharp child’s voice rising among the crowd

Kelly shouted: "Hey!"

Well, the game is not over yet, and Henry hasn't explicitly stated that he concedes, so there is still a chance to play. Since Kelly's behind-the-scenes manipulator is not playing, I will take the lead.

Then I heard Wang Wu say: "Gambling on chess? I thought he was just being cute. This must be a collusion with the other side, right?"

However, Lin Feng did not inquire why the latter had the authority to decide Kelly's fate; he merely smiled coldly and said, "If you seek your own death, then do not blame me."

However, a lowly person is still a lowly person; such disrespectful treatment towards oneself cannot be forgiven

The situation on the chessboard is similar; the opposing pieces engage in fierce combat. Although they are merely inanimate objects, they give rise to a palpable atmosphere of bloodshed and conflict. However, it is evident that Henry's side is at a disadvantage, having lost more than half of the nine guardian towers and two out of five important pieces. In contrast, Lin Feng's side has only lost one guardian tower and still retains four pieces.

Wang Wu released his grip as instructed, and Kelly immediately lost her strength, staggering backward a few steps before falling to the ground with a thud, tears streaming down her face from the pain

Then, Kelly suddenly noticed that Henry's body trembled violently, causing the previously smooth course of the game to come to a halt

Wang Wu then turned his head, no longer paying attention to Kai and Tu Shu Li, and smiled at Lin Feng, saying, "Oh, good morning!"

Lin Feng felt that this world has truly become absurd

That boy from Penglai is known as the most incompetent student in Henry's class, with absolutely zero qualifications as a dream builder. He got stuck at the first level of dream awakening, completely unable to make any progress, which significantly slowed down the class's pace. This allowed him to repeatedly argue with Henry and gain the upper hand, making him somewhat of a contributor.

Wang Wu was completely unconcerned, staring directly at Lin Feng: "What do you think? Are you interested now?"

I heard you are the second most talented genius in Class Four? Born of common nobility? The tone carried an obvious disdain

Let go of me!

You! ... ... Me! ?

How did four pieces suddenly become three?

No need for ! ''

Kelly moved her lips gently, her voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, but she knew that Henry would certainly hear her. His family's bloodline endowed him with extraordinary sensitivity in his five senses, a fact that everyone in Class Four was well aware of

Today's events are certainly not over, and Kelly can already imagine that she will have to face various difficulties and ridicule from Lin Feng in the future. As for worse things? ... Haha, even the blue-blooded aristocrats shouldn't act recklessly at Yangcheng Academy, right? ... It shouldn't come to that, should it?

As if witnessing something extremely unbelievable, Lin Feng was stunned for a whole number of seconds, then closed his eyes, opened them again, and focused his gaze intently on the chessboard, silently counting in his mind: One, two, three, three, three... "What the hell! Where are my pieces!"

Completely disregarding the awkward atmosphere, Wang Wu independently commanded two pieces to directly breach the opponent's center, successfully attacking Lin Feng's home base in one fell swoop

Ignorant lowly people

Having finished speaking, Wang Wu raised his head, revealing the smile of a victor: "According to the wager, your previous debts with Henry are now settled once and for all"

Henry slammed the table with all his might, raised his head sharply, and his gaze seemed to shoot fire. However, before he could open his mouth to angrily rebuke his opponent, he heard Kelly shout from behind, "Watch out!"

With this thought in mind, his gaze towards the other person gradually took on a different flavor, making Kelly feel extremely uncomfortable, as if a cold, slimy snake were crawling on her body

However, before he could speak, he saw Wang Wu sitting confidently across the table, smiling at him and saying, "Hey, since no one is here to play this game with you anyway, let me take over."

Kelly thought to herself, call us whatever you like; after all, we truly cannot compare our family background with you blue-bloods. However, the words that followed left her unable to even muster a bitter smile

While observing the situation, Kelly continuously provided hints to Henry, gradually shifting the tide of the battle.

Lin Feng, filled with rage, laughed coldly: "You lowly commoner, how dare you speak to me like this!"

As Wang Wu stated, it has already been leveled. The change in the situation is strikingly similar to Lin Feng's decisive victory over Henry

Wang Wu blinked and said, "What cheating?"

Some came to witness the duel between the two great blue-blooded nobles, Henry and Lin Feng, while many others were pure enthusiasts of the Tower Chess, here to observe the match

You must have mistaken me for someone else; I know nothing at all

However, it is surprising that Kelly, who comes from a noble family of honor, often regarded by many as a family of commoner nobility, possesses such talent. Although Lin Feng does not consider Kelly a competitor in terms of *illustrations*, he is quite intrigued by this talented girl of humble origins

I ... ... ? ! ''

At this moment, Kelly's voice sounded so powerless... Wang Wu, without turning his head, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, it's a sure win." Lin Feng then took another look at Wang Wu and found that the latter seemed to genuinely believe he had a chance to turn the tables, which made him smile.

Roaring, Lin Feng suddenly swung his fist

Are you taking over?

Wang Wu sighed as he reached out to help, only to have his hand ruthlessly swatted away by Kelly.

At this moment, the onlooking students also recovered from their astonishment, engaging in lively discussions about the changes in the chess game, with the focus of their debate naturally being the suddenly lost piece.

The chess game has entered its final stages, and the outcome can essentially be said to be determined. Henry's face is ashen, his fists tightly clenched on his knees, still unwilling to concede defeat. Meanwhile, the young master of the Lin family across the board is not in a hurry to deliver the fatal blow, leisurely directing his pieces to gnaw at the opponent's defenses, his demeanor entirely one of teasing and mockery.

Henry was extremely angry, yet he was at a loss for words, unable to speak. Just now, he had carelessly lost a piece, purely provoked by Lin Feng's taunts, which had driven him to lose his composure. Otherwise, with his level of skill, he would not have made such a basic mistake. However, he could not explain this situation, nor did he care to.

Hmm, I shall accept this inner tower, thank you for your generosity

Oh, very well

Kelly shrugged her shoulders and resolutely employed a feigned ignorance tactic, turning around and walking away, treating the malicious laughter of Lin Feng behind her as if she had not heard it

Do you not admit it? Just now, my four pieces suddenly turned into three. Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you

Henry shouted and then turned to leave, his back appearing disheveled and pitiful, like a stray dog, leaving the crowd in stunned silence, unsure of what to do next

It was utterly unexpected that the other party would turn the tables. In astonishment, Lin Feng found himself at a loss for words. Then, Wang Wu spoke earnestly: "Given the disparity in our chess skills, even if it were two against four, you would still be certain to lose. Therefore, you secretly removed a piece and then falsely accused me, attempting to muddle through the game. Upon reflection, the chessboard is yours, the pieces are yours, and it is evidently more convenient for you to cheat... Such shameless tactics, even I, as a commoner, find deeply contemptible. As a blue-blooded noble, you truly are a disgrace among the aristocracy. Think about it, the chessboard is yours, the pieces are yours, and it is evidently more convenient for you to cheat... Such shameless tactics, even I, as a commoner, find deeply contemptible. As a blue-blooded noble, you truly are a disgrace among the aristocracy. So, why the furious glare? Is it because your scheme has been exposed, leading to your embarrassment and anger?"

I owe you all, and I will make it up to you. This time, I apologize to my classmates!

No, I dare not...

If it can be used for play, it would definitely be very interesting

Wang Wu said: "You, can it still be me? Kelly has pointed it out to this extent, and you can still lose. Do you dare to say this is not intentional?"

However, even so, if it is a situation of two against four, Wang Wu would have no possibility of turning the tide. The reason for this lies in that lost piece.

Continue to let the thief roam, while the warriors and mages can consider pushing the lanes. If the numbers are equal, you will not be at a disadvantage; apply more pressure on him

The thief piece in Tower Capture is a role that can become extremely powerful in the later stages of the game. Cases of turning the tide with a single thief piece are not uncommon on www.hetushu.com. Therefore, even though Lin Feng has an advantage in the number of pieces, he does not dare to let Henry's thief grow too strong—his own thief has already fallen in the early game! At this moment, he has no choice but to allocate forces to encircle the thief, resulting in a stalemate on the board.

Sigh, otherwise I might as well drop out of school with Wang Wu, it's better than being tormented every day

When the two female students rushed to the cafeteria, it was already surrounded by a considerable number of people. Most of the students from both classes had arrived, and quite a few from two other classes of the same year had also come, with even some upperclassmen showing great interest and watching from the side

While cursing Wang Wu in her heart with a thousand cuts, Kelly struggled to pull her hand away, trying to break free from Wang Wu's entanglement

Kelly widened her eyes, completely unable to believe what she had just heard

As for being labeled a fool for a month, and the malicious mockery from a group of people during the weekly public classes... The mentally and physically exhausted girl no longer wishes to dwell on it; she will worry about tomorrow's matters tomorrow, and if it comes to it, she might as well drop out with Wang Wu. However, just after taking a couple of steps, Kelly felt someone tugging at her sleeve, causing her to stumble and nearly fall.

He then reached out to touch the control area of the chessboard, beginning to direct the pieces to carry out the final finishing touches

Looking back, Wang Wu was pulling her sleeve with one hand and pointing at the chessboard with the other, loudly saying: "Hey, hey, hey, it's not finished yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave, you behind-the-scenes mastermind?"

The onlooking students from Class Four immediately erupted in cheers, as if victory was within reach. However, Lin Feng repeatedly changed his tactics but could not do anything against Henry, a small thief.

This guy is deliberately humiliating himself, indirectly affecting his opponent... Sighing, Kelly chose to pretend she hadn't heard anything, to avoid making the situation worse. At that moment, several male and female followers behind Lin Feng were laughing loudly in agreement, their arrogance reaching an extreme, causing a flush to quickly appear on the girl's face

Oh? Lin Feng suddenly chuckled coldly, "Interesting, Henry. You come from a blue-blood family, yet how have you fallen to entangle with a common noble? When I said that woman caught my eye, I merely meant she could be a bit of fun. You can't be serious, can you? Women of such lowly origins can be quite dirty; you should be careful."

It is simply unbelievable; this tower-capturing game is not like ordinary board games. The board and pieces are created using dream-weaving techniques, possessing incredible powers. Every move of the pieces on the board is constrained by the rules of the board. How could one possibly take them away at will? Is this some kind of black-and-white chess?

"Enough with the nonsense, are you going to play or not?" Wang Wu frowned, looking quite impatient. "If you think there’s no excitement in this... how about this: if you win, that woman behind me will be yours, how does that sound?"

Upon hearing this, Henry immediately slammed the table and exclaimed, "Who are you saying is colluding with him?"

But an incredible scene unfolded before my eyes; four pieces, and now only three remain

It was only then that Henry realized that while he had lost his composure in anger, Lin Feng had already maneuvered his pieces to launch an assault, once again capturing one of Henry's pieces. Not only did the disparity in the number of pieces double, but the captured piece was also Henry's only hope for a comeback, the thief
