Chapter 412 Triumph

Everyone present at the gathering, whether it was Soldier's subordinates or Beauty herself, wasconvinced the hen would lose. They were certain that Daniel would soon kneel down and callSoldier 'grandpa.' However, to everyone's surprise, before Soldier could even finish writing theanswer to the second question, the hen had already completed all ten.

Soldier's men started mocking the hen's achievement, "Typical chicken, useless! How could it get allthe answers down so quickly? They're probably all wrong!"

"Of course, they're wrong! There's no way our boss's problems could have such simple answers."

"Exactly! Look at what the hen wrote: single or two-digit numbers. These problems look complex;the correct answers should at least have decimals!"

...

Their rationale sounded convincing, and although Beauty hadn't voiced her thoughts, she agreedwith them. She too was sure the hen had blindly written down the answers and missed the markcompletely.

Despite Beauty's good academic background, she only briefly skimmed the questions withoutactually trying to solve them. The idea that a hen could solve such challenging math problems wasbeyond her belief.

Even though the hen had finished all ten problems, Soldier wasn't worried. He had convincedhimself that the hen's answers could not possibly be correct. Although he had set the problems,they were written haphazardly, with no concern for their difficulty. As for the answers, he hadn'tbothered to calculate them. There were even problems he couldn't solve himself.

The questions posted by the hen for Soldier might have seemed easy, involving just basicarithmetic, but they were tedious to solve, some featuring numerous decimal places. Unable tomatch the hen's speed, Soldier's only chance of competing was in accuracy. His goal was tocorrectly answer all ten questions to secure his victory. After all, even if by some stroke of luck thehen got one or even half of the questions right, the chance of guessing all ten correctly waspractically nil.

After ten minutes passed, Soldier completed the last answer, beaming with confidence, "I'm done!And they're all correct!"

"Soldier, the hen had already finished way before you did, and you're still pleased with yourself?Even if your answers are all correct, you've still lost because you're slower than a chicken! Slowerthan a hen!" Daniel teased.

"We agreed earlier that accuracy comes first, then speed. This hen might have been faster, butthere's no way all ten answers are right. If it got one or two right, that's just your good luck," Soldierargued, insisting on his presumed advantage.

"Don't underestimate chickens, especially this magical hen. Every single answer it wrote is correct,"Daniel said confidently.

Turning to Beauty with a smile, he asked, "Beauty, you must have been a great student back in theday, right? You can solve all these problems, can't you?"

"I went to New York University, scored almost perfect on the SAT. These questions are for kids!"

"Since you're so skilled, Beauty, why don't you check the answers the hen wrote? Whatever youdecide, we'll go with that."
