Salute to the General novel Chapter 155

Everyone gazed at Nathan in shock.

"You wanna go up against Park Sehun? Can you really do it, fella?

Even Channing's top player, Luther Chuss, had just lost to him.

Hence, it was no surprise that the crowd didn't have much faith in Nathan.

This guy probably doesn't mind losing, but it'd be a huge problem if he had to end up declaring that Go was invented by South Korea.

Even Penny turned to Nathan in astonishment. "You know how to play Go, Nathan?"

"Just a little," Nathan smiled. "But beating this joker will be a piece of cake."

What Penny and the audience didn't know was that Nathan had learned to play Go since young and was especially gifted at it.

While in the North Army, Nathan used to compete against several top-class professional Go players and even Grandmasters.

In fact, he had never lost a single match.

Many even referred to him as a champion who was being held back by military duties.

A triumphant smile crept across Park Sehun's face upon realizing that someone had fallen for his taunts and was going to have a match with him.

At this moment, his girlfriend, Zoe Jennings, appeared next to him and whispered, "That's him, Darling! He's the one who hurt my bodyguards and slapped me!"

Park Sehun squinted. "I'll avenge you."

He smiled subtly as Nathan casually walked onto the stage. "You want to have a match with me?"

"That's right!” Nathan said calmly.

"Pathetic. We can duel, but if you lose, not only do you have to admit that my country invented Go. You'll have to roll yourself out of here too. Are you up for it?"

Nathan brushed his hands across his sleeves. "Bring it on!"

Shortly after, Nathan and Park Sehun sat across each other in front of a clean board.

Park Sehun asked Nathan, "Black or white?"

Everyone looked at Nathan. Those who played Go understood that Black moved first and had an advantage.

If two equally skilled players competed against each other, Black would always be a better choice.
