Chapter 33

Ning Yi looked at the group of people, his eyes filled with fervor. The moment the money was placed on the table, it seemed as if he was eagerly waiting to count it.

Feeling forced and having to register the amount, Li Jiawei was so angry that she couldn't even speak. This damned Ning Yi, she shouldn't have come to the library with him. Why did she have to be on his side? How infuriating, if she had a choice, she would have bet on Ning Yi losing without hesitation.

In this situation, why did she feel like she had become a money-giving fairy?

Although ten thousand yuan wasn't a big deal for her, if this news spread, it would be so embarrassing. People would laugh at the class beauty of Class 9 paying over ten thousand yuan for a ridiculous bet. She couldn't imagine how many people would die laughing.

Moreover, it was clear that they would be laughing not about the money, but about her intelligence.

Li Jiawei felt so wronged. Her beautiful eyes darted around, and she felt like tears were about to fall.

But in this situation, she was completely helpless. She finally endured until the group finished placing their bets. As expected, everyone bet on Ning Yi losing.

It was a one-sided affair, and there was nothing to say. Those who didn't bring money were even more frustrated, lamenting the loss of a good opportunity to make money.

Li Jiawei clenched her fists. If she could, she would have bet a thousand yuan on Ning Yi losing. It was so frustrating.

"Alright, Ning Yi, you can start..." Seeing Ning Yi's greedy eyes fixed on the pile of money on the table, Du Wen showed a hint of disdain and urged impatiently.

"Alright." Ning Yi felt a pang of pain in his heart. Not being able to draw a match for the martial arts competition was one thing, but why did so many people not have cash on them?

He picked up the pen, glanced at the question, and quickly started writing.

The high school level here was even lower than the one he attended on Earth.

So, although this question seemed to have taken Du Wen a lot of effort, for him, who had two master's degrees and almost a perfect score in advanced mathematics, it was equivalent to a junior high school student solving a math problem.

The moment he started writing, some people were stunned.

Several people who were closer to him exchanged glances and couldn't help but mutter, "Hey, Ning Yi, don't pretend to understand if you don't. Your method is completely different from what the teacher taught. Besides, is there even such a formula?"

Ning Yi ignored them, but he couldn't ignore them for long. As Ning Yi swiftly drew various mathematical symbols that made their eyes spin, the noise grew louder.

"Are you drawing gibberish?" "Damn, don't think you can fool us with a few random strokes!" "If you don't know, don't pretend!"

"If you haven't seen it, go back and review your books. Besides, there's a high-achieving student who won some award here. He should understand. This is a method from advanced calculus..." Li Jiawei, who was watching, initially frowned, but as Ning Yi started solving the problem, she was instantly stunned.

Halfway through, she was completely shocked. Yes, Ning Yi was indeed solving the problem, and he was using a method they had never learned.

Without a doubt, if she guessed correctly, it was definitely a university-level method.

Li Jiawei was dumbfounded. How... How did Ning Yi do it? His problem-solving technique was so proficient, something she couldn't even do.

"Advanced calculus?" Everyone's eyes turned to Du Wen.

His face turned ashen. He had studied advanced calculus, so he knew that Ning Yi's method was completely correct. More terrifyingly, even he, like Li Jiawei, couldn't think of a way to solve it like this.

When he came up with this problem, he already had the answer, but the method to solve it was far from as concise and straightforward as Ning Yi's.

It's over, it's over. Damn, how could Ning Yi solve a problem that even college students couldn't guarantee solving so easily?

"Alright! Done." As Ning Yi put down his pen, the blank paper was now filled with various mathematical symbols.

The answer was out!

But at least ninety percent of the people present couldn't understand how Ning Yi solved it.

The only ones who understood were Li Jiawei, Du Wen, and a couple of math geniuses. Even they only understood partially, but they knew Ning Yi's solution was flawless. The process was enough to leave them speechless.

The onlookers, seeing the starkly different expressions on Du Wen and Li Jiawei's faces, realized the outcome, even if they were fools.

Suddenly, the entire room fell silent.

Compared to the earlier noise and gloating, everyone was now completely stunned.

"Impossible! We definitely didn't learn this in high school." Zhou Cui was the first to exclaim, pulling out two hundred yuan to bet. Although the money wasn't much to him, it hurt his pride. How could this happen when Ning Yi, the school's notorious math failure, was involved?

"Zhou Cui, you can't understand it because your level is not high enough." At this moment, Li Jiawei's mood had rapidly shifted from hell to heaven. Seeing the stunned faces and eyes around her, she felt incredibly relieved.

She never expected it! Ning Yi, the bastard, had so easily solved the problem that Du Wen had meticulously devised.

Even she couldn't do it, and he solved it in less than half the time he said it would take.

It was a miracle!

What was Du Wen? A bronze medalist in the district competition? In front of Ning Yi, he was just a nobody!

"Master Wen, what... what do you say?" Guo Hui nudged Guo Yan beside him. Guo Hui's math was also terrible, and Guo Yan immediately understood and asked.

Du Wen's face was still ashen. He couldn't describe his current mood. His heart was filled with countless galloping horses, which then turned into three words:

Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!

This problem was based on a question from an Olympiad competition, so it was unlikely that anyone else would know it.

And Ning Yi had so easily solved it, which was like a slap in the face.

He was called a math genius, but now, a math failure had directly defeated him! Where was his dignity?

Worse still, Guo Yan, the little bastard, was rubbing salt in the wound at this moment!

But in response to his question, Du Wen had to grit his teeth and slowly nod, his face ashen.

Such a failure couldn't understand how Ning Yi solved the problem, but Li Jiawei clearly understood, so he couldn't deny it.

Seeing Du Wen nod, everyone gasped, and the reading room was filled with the sound of people plopping onto the floor.

"Can't be!"

"Can't be!" "How is this possible!"

"Isn't he a failure? Isn't he the worst in the school?"

"How did he defeat Master Wen, who participated in the Olympiad? Damn, my money..."

"Master Wen, oh, I get it now. You and Ning Yi must have colluded, right? Damn, you're both cheating for money." Zhou Cui jumped up, losing his mind.

"Get lost!" Du Wen was already in a terrible mood. He couldn't believe that Zhou Cui, the bastard, dared to suspect him and Ning Yi of colluding to cheat for money. Damn, did the Du family lack such a small amount of money?

Without hesitation, he kicked Zhou Cui far away and then glared at Guo Hui, saying coldly, "Master Hui, control your dog's mouth, or next time it won't just be a kick."

Guo Hui's face showed no emotion. After a moment, he glanced at Ning Yi, who was collecting the money, and replied with a faint smile, "Master Wen, you're right, but don't worry. Isn't there still a chance to turn things around? Ning Yi hasn't given his question yet."
