The Go tournament organized by Wen Tianji and the others was still in full swing.
Even in the Origin Mall during the morning, quite a few customers could be seen holding Magic Phones, their expressions serious as they stared at the images on their screens.
The rewards for the Go tournament were extremely enticing to many customers.
And the threshold for winning prizes was not particularly high either. As long as someone was not absurdly terrible, getting a small prize was easy enough.
Most of them were things like Origin Mall's Shut-In Happiness Set or Casual Mode items.
With the mindset of not refusing anything free, a great many people signed up. According to the system's data, they accounted for nearly half of the Origin Mall's customers.
Even though the Origin Go application on the Magic Phone had only been online for two or three days, even though some customers had only learned the name "Go" before the tournament began... and so on.
In short, there was no threshold whatsoever for registering for the Go tournament.
The original intention of the Go tournament had been for everyone to participate—as long as they had a Magic Phone, of course.
That was precisely why these customers, having nothing better to do, casually chose to sign up.
Thus, the tournament's initial qualifiers were basically all amateur chickens pecking at each other.
Most did not even know what the rules were. They simply placed stones at random.
Watching the black and white stones crisscross the board before a victor was somehow decided, they could not help but feel utterly baffled.
Huh? What's going on? How did I win?
Huh? What's going on? How did I lose?
Yes, that was more or less how it went.
Occasionally, experts would run into each other as well.
