Reba thought this rookie was going to be some kind of prodigy!
Turns out, she''s nothing but a low-level loser. Her chess game isughably weak.
She hadn''t even shown her true skills, and the opponent was already falling apart.
And to think Jack was so wary of her.
Anthea spoke with a nonchnt tone, "Don''t get cocky so soon. Hate for you to be a sore loser
later,ing up with someme excuse like feeling under the weather or pretending to go easy on
the newbie!"
Reba offered a slight smile, her fingers dancing across the keyboard to move a piece,
"Checkmate! Better luck next time, hon, you''ve lost."
[Reba is so amazing!]
[Hahaha! She lost!]
[Number One is still Number One! What''s this rookie think she''s doing challenging our champ?]
"Are you sure you''ve got me in checkmate?" Anthea''s tone remained cool.
With that statement, Reba paused. What did this loser mean by that?
"Take another look," Anthea prompted, noting Reba''s puzzled expression.
The chat room fans were also confused.
After a moment, realization dawned on everyone.
[Ah! I''m so fired up right now!]
[Same here! I''m actually tearing up!]
[Holy cow! Ann is fierce! Ann is the bomb!]
[Ah! Another day in love with Ann!]
[My goodness! Ann just blew my mind with her chess strategy! Turns out you don''t have to always
y offense!]
[That switcheroo was slick! AnnV587!]
[Mom, I''m so proud, I just saw my favorite streamer beat a grandmaster!]
Reba''s brow furrowed as she finally saw the trap that Anthea had set. The cannon was waiting
there all along.
She had been too careless! One wrong move led to another.
"I''ll give you a piece handicap. Take your rook back," Anthea''s voice came again.
Reba''s face paled, a sweat breaking on her forehead.
She was a grandmaster, for goodness'' sake! Did she really need to ept a handicap from a
nobody? But if she didn''t ept, she would lose!
What to do now?
For the first time during her streaming career, Reba faced a dilemma like this.
Reluctantly, she sought help from her system.
The system should be able to bail her out. But she was already in a checkmate situation, trapped
with no way out, even the system couldn’t do anything.
Seeing that Reba wasn''t making a move, Anthea didn''t bother with pleasantries.
She went straight for the checkmate.
[Checkmate! ck wins!]
The chat erupted with excitement; where Reba''s fans had previously mocked Anthea, now it
was their turn to gloat.
[So what if you''re Number One? Our Ann can still beat you!]
[Our Ann will always be your daddy!]
[I love Ann!]

Reba''s fans were in disbelief at her loss and quickly started stirring things up.
[What''s wrong with Reba? Is she not feeling well?]
[How could Reba possibly lose! She must be under the weather!]
If it wasn''t for not feeling well, how could Reba possibly lose?
But Anthea''s fans weren''t having it and fired back.
[Here we go, the excuses areing.]
[Lose and it''s either a handicap or feeling sick. Seems Number One isn''t so different after all, just
another sore loser!]
[Is that supposed to be Number One?]
[Next door''s Number One should have some shame!]
[Can''t handle a loss! Reba shows her true colors!]
[Never seen someone so shameless. If you can''t handle losing, whypete at all? What''s the
point now?]
Reba was about to go along with her fans, but thements made her face turn.
Using the ''not feeling well'' excuse now would only confirm that she couldn''t handle defeat.
She had no choice but to swallow her pride, "I was outyed. Griffin, you’re truly skilled!"
"Inpetition, winning and losing is all part of the game. No need to dwell on it, senior."
At those words, Reba''s expression turned even darker.
