Upon hearing these words, Jing Tianrui, who previously wore a look of arrogance, suddenly underwent a drastic change in expression.
"You... you..."
"How do I know, right? Actually, at the very beginning, I didn’t notice anything! But as soon as the competition started and you played chess against others, I sensed something was off! Because people can lie, but their Divine Sense cannot!"
Xue An spoke calmly, then turned his head to look at Zhuge Xuanqing, "Miss Zhuge, weren’t you wondering where your brother had gone?"
"I can tell you now that more than half of this Jing Tianrui’s Divine Sense intelligence comes from your brother, Zhuge Banzang!"
Boom!
Zhuge Xuanqing felt as if struck by lightning. Her form wavered and she almost fell to the ground, then she turned pale as she looked at Xue An.
"Is... is what you said true?"
Xue An smiled faintly, "Don’t you already know in your heart whether it’s true or not?"
Zhuge Xuanqing’s heart surged with emotion, and her eyes flickered with complex light.
Despite the constant claims that her brother had gone out to seek the ultimate truth of chess, the years of silence from Zhuge Banzang had already caused the Zhuge Family to grow suspicious.
Zhuge Xuanqing herself thought of her brother every day.
But she never imagined that her brother, whom she had been unable to find, would actually be in the Tian Zhao Star Domain.
The words of Xue An were like the opening of a great door.
The events of the past few years quickly flashed through Zhuge Xuanqing’s mind.
Many seemingly insignificant details now connected into one thread.
For example, although Jing Tianrui had some reputation before, his Cultivation Level in chess was only average. However, shortly after her brother disappeared, his Cultivation Level suddenly soared, and he won the championship of the chess competition in one fell swoop.
All these doubts now had a perfect explanation.
Zhuge Xuanqing couldn’t stop trembling, and tears overflowed from her eyes.
"I was such a fool... So my brother was harmed by you bastards!" Zhuge Xuanqing murmured softly.
The atmosphere at the scene had become incredibly tense.
Especially the elders of the chess academy, whose faces were ashen.
Even though the Tian Zhao Chess Academy was powerful, the Zhuge Family was not to be underestimated; if this matter spread, the Zhuge Family would surely seek furious vengeance.
By then, the situation would truly escalate!
Therefore, the elders exchanged glances, and then Dai Qinxin, the head senior sister, sneered.
"That was splendid! I almost believed you for a moment, but without proof, how can you slander our Chess Academy like this? Just based on Jing Tianrui’s Divine Sense?"
"Moreover, you yourself won this competition by cheating, so what right do you have to question us?" Dai Qinxin inquired with a fierce tone yet vulnerable heart.
However, Xue An seemed to have anticipated such a response, so he merely smiled.
"Did I say it was you who did it?"
Hm?
Everyone at the scene was taken aback.
What did he mean by that?
Zhuge Xuanqing suddenly looked up, her eyes wide as she stared at Xue An.
Xue An calmly stated, "With your level of power, it’s impossible to restrain Zhuge Banzang and strip away his Divine Sense intelligence."
"So clearly, someone else is the perpetrator. Let me guess, it must be the doing of that Chess Saint, am I right?"
That’s the pinnacle of existence in the Tian Zhao Star Domain, and indeed, in the entire world of chess.
