Chapter 4225

Su Xinghui won four consecutive matches without any suspense, entering the finals for chess, table tennis, and badminton. Zhang Zhongshan lost to Su Xinghui in the table tennis semifinals, but he successfully advanced to the finals in the Go competition.

Thus, in the Sunday finals, the roommates Su Xinghui and Zhang Zhongshan would be able to compete at the same time. This made Zhang Zhongshan so happy he didn't know what to do with himself.

In the Sunday finals, a group of high-ranking leaders led by Yu Jianyuan would be coming to watch. Yu Jianyuan would even personally present the awards to the champions, so how could Zhang Zhongshan not be happy?

Su Xinghui's opponent in the chess final was Bao Chengzhi, his opponent in the table tennis final was Xu Weidong, and his opponent in the badminton final was Gu Yihua, the Municipal Party Secretary of Fengzhou City, Qinxi Province.

As for Zhang Zhongshan's opponent in the Go final, it was Fu Minzhong, whom Su Xinghui had faced in the first round of the chess competition. Fu Minzhong was indeed very talented in board games; his level in both chess and Go was quite high. Since Su Xinghui did not participate in the Go competition, Fu Minzhong had fought his way to the finals.

Before the Sunday finals, everyone had Saturday off to rest, so they went out for a round of fun. It was a good way to relax, though the finalists were all gearing up and preparing for Sunday's matches.

Who wouldn't want to show their face in front of high-ranking leaders like Yu Jianyuan?

Su Xinghui, however, was very calm. Firstly, he knew his own athletic level and was very confident. Secondly, he was someone accustomed to seeing high-ranking leaders; he even met people like Premier Nan and Elder Yu frequently, so other high-ranking leaders certainly wouldn't make him feel nervous.

At exactly 2:00 PM on Sunday, the finals for the four sports events of the Municipal Party Secretary short-term training class officially began. Party school leaders like Yu Jianyuan and He Lin arrived at the scene to watch the finals.

The order of the four matches was chess, table tennis, Go, and badminton. This arrangement was made because Su Xinghui needed to participate in three events; holding the Go match after his table tennis match allowed him to rest and recover his strength.

Therefore, everyone approved of this arrangement.

The chess match was held between Su Xinghui and Bao Chengzhi. Since they couldn't take up too much of the leaders' time, this chess final directly adopted a rapid chess format. Both sides had only thirty seconds to think for each move; if a move wasn't made within thirty seconds, they would be declared the loser.

The two would play two games; if the two games ended in a draw, they would play an additional game until a winner was decided.

This format was naturally advantageous for Su Xinghui because he was much younger than Bao Chengzhi, so his reaction time was far faster. Whether Bao Chengzhi could perform at his true level under the pressure of the countdown was a question.

The referees invited for today's finals were international-level referees, very professional. Having them as referees ensured the fairness of the competition to the greatest extent.

Therefore, even though it was just a competition for a short-term training class, it created the atmosphere of a professional tournament.

Leaders like Yu Jianyuan took their seats one after another on the sidelines, and the students of the training class held up various signs, supporting their favorite contestants. ===== CHAPTER 4227 =====
