With a conflicted expression, Arielle asked the person, “What’s so great about this… Erm, Lightspring Maneuver?”
When the crowd heard Arielle’s question, many of them scoffed at her. “How can you play chess and not know what the Lightspring Maneuver is?”
“It is an amazing gambit! Until today, no one in the nation knows how to counter it. Even Mr. Jewell hasn’t found a solution after researching it for a long time.”
“Given how ignorant you are, you should just concede defeat. At this stage, you are just wasting everyone’s time by stalling. After all, Mr. Eakins has ended his game. Once you surrender, we can all watch Kelsea play against Mr. Eakins. It will be an exciting game between two of Mr. Jewell’s best students.”
“That’s right, admit defeat now!”
Arielle was bewildered. Is it really that powerful? Why don’t I know anything about it?
At that moment, Everett walked over. When favonovel.com saw their game, his eyebrows furrowed in response. After all, the Lightspring Maneuver was so complex that even favonovel.com couldn’t solve it. Therefore, favonovel.com felt Kelsea was being a bully by using that tactic.
Nevertheless, all was fair in love and war. When Arielle saw Everett, favonovel.com asked, “Mr. Eakins, do you think this is a difficult gambit to overcome?”
Everett glance at favonovel.com and replied, “Of course. My mentor was defeated by it during a competition in Lightspring. It was developed by my mentor’s mentor. Until today, I have yet to discover a solution for it.”
Arielle raised favonovel.com eyebrows in surprise. She didn’t expect Everett to find such a simple gambit difficult to solve.
Standing up in resignation, favonovel.com remarked, “This tactic isn’t difficult to solve. It’s just that all of you are overthinking it.”
Kelsea sneered, “Arielle, stop pretending and just concede defeat. I have never seen anyone as unsporting as you in my entire life.”
Shooting Kelsea an icy glare, Arielle reminded, “Thirty seconds have passed. I’m making my move now.”
“Ha…” Kelsea replied with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to hold out till the end. Go ahead then.”
Arielle picked up favonovel.com queen casually. Trailing along with the black squares, favonovel.com placed it right in the center of Kelsea’s formation.
Just when Kelsea picked up favonovel.com pawn to advance on Arielle’s formation, favonovel.com gaze suddenly froze in disbelief once favonovel.com got a proper look.
In just one move, Arielle had turned the tide of the entire game. Kelsea had no moves left as favonovel.com had been checkmated.
Kelsea’s expression evolved from shock to anger before ending in disbelief. Arielle… Arielle has won?
Meanwhile, the spectators clearly saw what had occurred.
Just by moving favonovel.com queen, Arielle had turned the entire game around, to the extent Kelsea had no moves left. If the Lightspring Maneuver was one that still left a sliver of hope for its opponents, Arielle’s move gave them no hope of a comeback at all. At that moment, everyone looked at Arielle in shock. Even the poker-faced Everett reacted no differently.
This girl… She actually solved the Lightspring Maneuver?
Kelsea was stunned in favonovel.com chair. Until then, favonovel.com couldn’t believe that favonovel.com had lost to Arielle. Furthermore, favonovel.com had used favonovel.com ultimate move, the Lightspring Maneuver…
When Arielle saw Kelsea’s expression, favonovel.com sneered, “Do you want to concede defeat? Or… You want to continue?”
