As time passed, the Chess Academy's Man vs. AI competition quickly began.
In the specially arranged competition venue, the academy's students had already taken their seats. Lu Mian was seated in the student section with Su Luo and La Wenwen.
Since this wasn't a public, large-scale competition, there weren't any reporters present—only a few publicity staff from the Chess Academy setting up cameras to record the match.
Soon, members of the Go Association entered one by one and took their seats in the front row.
On stage, Zhuge Heng was giving a passionate speech full of platitudes.
"Let us thank Miss Lu Yutian for her support with equipment! Without Lu Enterprise's AI robot, this match wouldn't be possible. Let's give her a warm round of applause!"
The audience erupted in applause as Lu Yutian stepped onto the stage gracefully, said a few poised words, and took her seat.
