In the quarterfinals, the four directly selected players selected their opponents from the other four promoted players, and Dang Yifei Jiudan won the first selection right, and he chose Ke Jie Jiudan as his opponent. Subsequently, Xie Ke 9 Duan, Wang Xinghao 9 Duan, and Yuan Shengqin 9 Duan respectively selected Tu Xiaoyu 8 Duan, Fan Tingyu 9 Duan, and Liao Yuanhe 9 Duan as their respective opponents. In the first match of the quarterfinals on April 7, Dang Yifei defeated Ke Jie Jiuduan with 279 hands and 3 eyes and a half in the ninth section and took the lead in advancing to the semifinals.

Xie Ke, who was in charge of black in this game, did not play well, and made a mistake too early in the upper side of the game, resulting in a large black piece being attacked, and white easily protected the left big empty space without much effort, and the winning rate rose to more than 90%.
After that, black was in a hurry, causing a robbery on the left, and white discarded to eliminate the robbery, ensuring that the advantage was not lost. Black's marksmanship was in disarray, and the right board was chaotic, and white responded correctly, without giving black any chance. to 172 hands, Xie Ke conceded defeat in the middle game.
Fan Tingyu's nine-dan battle against the defending champion Wang Xinghao's nine-dan battle, the latter seems to have miscalculated in the upper right battle early, and did not hesitate to foolishly break the white chess, but only ate a few "dry pieces" of the opponent, and the white chess took the opportunity to jump to the periphery, and the big appearance naturally surrounded.
After that, black forced a move in the big pattern of white, and if he could break it, he would break it, intending to muddy the situation and find a fighter in the chaotic battle. Fan Tingyu was concise, avoiding all kinds of chaotic traps set by Wang Xinghao, abandoning the number of mid-abdomen sons, and after revitalizing the big dragon on the left side and surrounding the big sky, Wang Xinghao had no intention of fighting and threw himself in defeat.
In the last game of the quarterfinals in the evening, Liao Yuanhe held the battle of Yuan Shengqin in the ninth section, and in the first half of the game, the two made their own choices of potential and place. However, the black chess went deep into it to break the empty but it was in the arms of the white chess, Liao Yuanhe drove the dominant piece to encircle and suppress the black chess, and Yuan Da Hammer was forced to survive alone.
White had no choice but to aim straight at the black dragon. The two sides formed a super robbery, and the process was extremely chaotic. However, in the end, due to the thinness of the black chess, the white chess played more and more, and until it reached 218 hands, the black chess was exhausted, and the thrower admitted defeat.
