Let me tell you, in front of Mr. Jiateng, you aren’t even worthy to carry his shoes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen laughed coldly, \"Is that so? Sycophants like you really aren’t qualified to be called people of Hua Country.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Kai snorted coldly, \"He’s ready now. Once Ye Chen loses, he will mercilessly humiliate Ye Chen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now people have high hopes for Ye Chen, but the higher the hopes, the harder the fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already inwardly laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, you can be arrogant for a while, but when you lose to Jiateng, let’s see how I make you embarrass yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Heng took a deep breath and said to Ye Chen, \"Mr. Ye, you must bring honor to the people of Hua Country.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Ye, good luck, we support you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Ye, this Jiateng is too arrogant, always mocking us people of Hua Country; you must bring glory to our Go community in Hua Country.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Ye, good luck.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides Xiao Kai, all the other people from Hua Country were cheering for Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone’s expressions, Ye Chen felt a warmth in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, like Xiao Kai, those who like to grovel to foreigners are a minority; most people are patriotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Kai’s face turned livid when he saw this scene filled with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was looking forward to Ye Chen losing even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already decided that once Ye Chen lost, he would make sure Ye Chen couldn’t show his face here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded, \"Alright, then I’ll give it a try. With Jiateng’s skill, it will indeed require some effort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Xiao Kai coldly laughed, \"Ye Chen, you’re not backing down, are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said indifferently, \"Of course not. How about this, I’ll use only thirty percent of my power to capture one of Jiateng’s pieces.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, the entire Go room fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?

I’ve never lost in Go, I actually seek a defeat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen wasn’t bothered at all by Jiahe’s provocation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He possessed the legacy of the Chess Saint, naturally immune to Jiahe’s provocations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, Ye Chen’s whole focus was on the game of Go, unaffected by anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen picked up a piece and slowly placed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, let’s decide the winner on the board.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s first piece landed on the board.\u003C\u002Fp>",1237,"2026-06-03T08:12:58.226Z","2026-06-03T08:13:01.728Z",1,"novelbin.me","6f63e2e9d684c2728c3ae762d47d85b3fe6e6c595e4aac334949eeb124c1e066","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-947","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-945",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
