Summary of Volume 4
Hello everyone, this is Scarlett, the author of The Street, and it’s time for another volume of short compositions.
I have a lot of work recently + an upcoming trip + stomatitis again, and my writing status is not good, but I think every author will not miss the opportunity to write a short composition. I feel panicked if I don’t write, so I will try my best Keep it short.
First of all, regarding the volume title and volume annotations, the following is the official reading comprehension.
The name of this volume [Solo Flight] is a pun.
The first meaning is, of course, that Xiao Zhao gradually becomes independent from his parents, teachers, and friends in this volume, and becomes independent. There are both physical (leaving Dongjiang and mainly staying in Pohu) and mental (beginning to be independent and have my own ideas, opinions and even some tricks), including finally using a flying knife to kill the No. 1 player in the world in the Nongshim Cup. First, despite the support of Ni Jue’s Flying Knife Library, the entire process, whether it was proposed, executed, or even the final flying knife used, all stemmed from Rui Zhao’s own independence and gradual maturity.
From the character arc, I am also trying to describe this gradual change. After all, as a heroine in a novel, I personally think that the heroine cannot continue to be silly and sweet.
The second meaning is that "flying solo" also means "a flying knife". For this volume, "flying knife" can be said to be one of the core themes of this volume - whether it is the meaning of Go in an extended sense.
In the Go sense, in the process of preventing Liu Shixian from continuing to dominate the Nongshim Cup, the flying knife is the basis for Ni Jue to dare to show his sword to Liu Shixian, and it is also the link of mutual support and connection between Ni Jue and Ruizhao. Rui Zhao's unremitting efforts in this volume are also the key to finally ending Ryu Shixian's winning streak in the Nongshim Cup, which can be said to be throughout.
In an extended sense, when Ni Jue was overworked and sick and unable to play, Rui Zhao, as a candidate that most people could not imagine, finally replaced Ni Jue in the Nongshim Cup and finally succeeded. So why is it not a "flying knife" outside the market?
Therefore, it is most appropriate to use [Solo Flight] as the title of the volume.
After explaining the name of the volume, it is easy to understand the comment "Wanli alone flies beyond the clouds".
This sentence is quoted from an ancient poem, but it is taken literally. It not only refers to Rui Zhao's process of constantly improving himself through "solo flight" during the year in this volume, but also refers to the flying knife "Symmetrical Double Three Three" that was born after a long period of research and subsequent polishing, and finally succeeded in seriously injuring Nong Xin. God’s entire experience and efforts.

Okay, now that the explanation is over, let’s talk about some feelings and problems during the writing process of this volume.
Feelings... I don’t really feel much. I can only say that the sensitivity has improved somewhat in some parts of Benpoujie, but there is still a long way to go. Let’s write and summarize.
As for the problem... the pace of this volume is much slower than the previous two volumes.
But there is still a problem, and this problem has existed even since the second volume: Xiao Zhao will lose some chess, even relatively key games.
But this... to be honest, I'm a little temperamental.
This article is more realistic and has no powerful cheats, so the growth of the heroine must be full of setbacks. I hope that Xiao Zhao's growth process will be solid and solid, instead of just saying "she has talent and hard work, so she will win no matter how hard she plays" - this is actually no different from forcing cheating.
Of course, some bosses will say: "Of course you can write that the heroine loses, but the loss must also reflect the heroine's progress! I don't feel it!"
Of course readers have the right to raise higher requirements, But I feel a little bit aggrieved about this.
Although I am a poor player, when it comes to the heroine’s loss, I have always tried very hard to reflect her progress and the difficulty of others winning against the heroine. Let’s just talk about this volume. In the game where Huang Bonan defeated Rui Zhao, Long Bo, who was an avid fan of dragon slaying, was afraid of overturning, so he did not hesitate to change his chess style and give up his absolute strengths to deliberately target the heroine.
In the game when Kuai Liang defeated Rui Zhao, as a fast chess master, he was counter-pressured by Rui Zhao when he didn't take any action on the fast chess table. In the end, he had to accept it honestly. Follow your temper and follow the targeted approach.
In the Wuyue Cup semi-finals, the Ice Queen carefully targeted her opponent, and finally won half an eye in fear. As a result, Rui Zhao was just like a practice match on weekdays, not caring about winning or losing.
I think that although the above chess games were lost, from these details, we can still witness the growth of the heroine.
I have actually been working hard to improve readers' reading experience, but if I still have some bad feelings, I can only hope that the big guys understand that this is just a dish that is not bad.
Of course, I have to admit that some of my previous "criminal records" do seem to scare many big guys.
This game of chess with Liu Shixian paved the way for two full volumes (yes, the [Tuan] volume is essentially the foreshadowing of this game). I originally thought that everyone should know that we must win this game. Chess, but a lot of big guys reminded me that I cannot lose this game of chess...
I can only say that I can see that the big guys were really screwed up by the losses to Ice Queen and Natsukawa Aoi in the second and third volumes. I apologize and try to make things right in the future.
...Well, try your best.

Okay, I’ve finished talking about the questions in this volume, let’s talk about the next volume.
First of all, there should be a relatively long drama at the beginning of the fifth volume.
First, after the crazy acceleration in the second part of the first volume, some background details needed to be kept up and improved - I originally thought that the fourth volume would have more than two hundred chapters, but in the end it was shorter than the third volume.
Furthermore, there are indeed many things that need to be explained at the beginning of this volume, and it would be impossible not to write about literary drama.
Okay,
Well, it only took more than half an hour to write a short essay of 2,000 words. As expected, everyone is still more enthusiastic about writing short essays.
Finally, as usual, let’s preview the title of Volume 5:

Okay, everyone, see you tomorrow.
