The Current Human Emperor, a Heaven-Gifted Genius
"Ten trees stand side by side, with a gap between each pair of trees. In reality, there are only nine gaps between the ten trees, meaning the actual distance between them is only nine zhang (approximately 33 meters). How can you say it's ten zhang?"
Upon hearing this, the woman named Xiao Tu'er was slightly taken aback.
Her face then flushed slightly.
Because what my sister said is really true.
It's really embarrassing to brag in front of others when you've clearly miscalculated.
However, this spoiled brat went too far. He knew he had miscalculated, yet he still wanted to see himself make a fool of himself.
Ye Xuan simply smiled, without expressing any mockery.
There's really no point in trying to fool such a little devil.
However, the woman in white with her face veiled seemed somewhat unconvinced.
"Sir, you are indeed a genius with ingenious ideas."
"However, I also have a problem that I'd like to ask this gentleman for advice on. I wonder if he can solve it?"
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
This woman appeared extremely quiet and gentle, with a tender and serene demeanor, yet unexpectedly, she harbored a fiercely competitive spirit.
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
The woman in white revealed a faint smile.
"His Human Emperor the Emperor is indeed an extraordinary and awe-inspiring being."
"His Mental Arithmetic is indeed enough to stump most people."
"There's such a question in it!"
"It's about a large-scale poultry farmer who, due to a lack of cages, ended up keeping chickens and rabbits in the same cages."
"The head inside the cage weighed 35 grams, but there were a total of 94 legs."
"I wonder if this gentleman can tell how many chickens and rabbits are in the cage?"
As she spoke, a faint smile appeared on the woman's face.
There seemed to be a hint of pride on his face.
The other party actually humiliated her Xiao Tu'er with a question.
She certainly wouldn't let it go so easily.
Therefore, they directly raised the question posed by the Human Emperor.
This question was raised by the Human Emperor.
She still hasn't been able to answer it.
She simply didn't believe this guy could solve it.
Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback when he heard this.
This was the question he set.
I never imagined I'd be being questioned like this.
At this moment, Ye Xuan couldn't help but reveal an amused expression.
Wouldn't this be considered shooting oneself in the foot?
I set this question to test all living beings in the Primordial World.
Now, however, others are asking him the same question.
He couldn't help but shake his head.
"Young lady, you should think carefully. Are you going to use this question to test me?"
The veiled woman in white nodded confidently.
"If you are able to answer, then please do so."
She was certain that the person in front of her couldn't answer the question at all.
She couldn't believe that others could answer questions she herself couldn't.
Hearing the other party's confident words, Ye Xuan shook his head.
"Actually, this isn't even a difficult problem."
"It's just a question about training strategies."
"His Human Emperor the Emperor set this question in order to gather the wisdom of all people under heaven."
There are many solutions to this problem.
"As for how to solve the problem, I won't go into details. I'll just tell you the answer now."
There are twelve rabbits and twenty-three chickens.
The woman in white opposite him was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
The other party solved it so easily?
After carefully calculating it in his mind, he was immediately taken aback.
Because the man's answer was completely accurate.
How exactly did this man calculate that?
After seeing the question, she was completely baffled.
She is also confident that she is an intelligent person.
However, several days have passed, and she still cannot find the answer.
And this man in front of me calculated it so simply?
Could this man be the legendary chosen one?
Could this man possibly be compared to that wondrous Human Emperor?
"May this young master explain in detail how this calculation was made?"
I am completely baffled.
Seeing the utterly bewildered look on the other person's face.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile faintly.
"This question is actually very simple; just simplify it."
"There are actually too many feet in the cage; why not just cut them in half."
"In this way, ninety-four becomes forty-seven."
"This is equivalent to turning the rabbit into a two-legged rabbit and the chicken into a one-legged chicken, which makes the calculation very easy."
"In this way, the number of chicken heads will be the same as the number of chicken legs."
"And the ratio of rabbit heads to feet became one to two."
"Thus, the number of heads is thirty-five, and the number of feet is forty-seven."
"And because the ratio of rabbit heads to horns is one to two!"
"A chicken's head and horns are equal in size."
"This is equivalent to the difference between the number of horns and the number of heads, which is actually the number of rabbits."
"Forty-seven minus thirty-five equals twelve, which is the number of rabbits."
"That's the remaining twenty-three pence."
"This kind of problem is really simple, and there are even many ways to solve it. This is just one of them."
"You can study it yourself if you're interested."
Ye Xuan's solution is not actually very rigorous.
But it is indeed the simplest and quickest way.
There are many other methods.
That's where the fun of this question lies.
The boss and the others standing nearby naturally didn't understand any of this.
I was completely confused, it all seemed like a jumbled mess.
However, the veiled woman in white was an expert.
As the saying goes, a true expert's skill is immediately apparent upon seeing their work.
The woman was clearly facing an extremely prominent object.
This Zi Qi extremely skilled in the arts of Qimen Dunjia and the art of divination.
Arithmetic problems are essentially a matter of mental thinking.
Once you have a clear understanding, everything will fall into place.
If she doesn't understand, explaining it to her ten times won't help.
After listening to Ye Xuan's explanation.
The masked woman instantly realized what was going on.
He had never imagined that such a wonderful hypothesis existed in this world.
Besides that, his wildly imaginative and whimsical ideas really surprised her.
She truly hadn't expected that the problem that had been troubling her for several days would be solved so easily.
A look of horror appeared in their eyes as they looked at Ye Xuan.
"Sir, you are indeed a man of great talent, resolving your doubts so easily. Your wisdom is truly comparable to that of the Human Emperor."
The woman began to flatter him.
Ye Xuan couldn't help but smile.
"Young lady, you exaggerate. This is nothing more than a minor skill, not worth mentioning."
"His Human Emperor is a true genius, possessing knowledge of astronomy and geography, knowing everything and being capable of anything."
"How could my meager skills compare to his?"
While being modest, Ye Xuan also flattered himself.
Wushuang and Su Daji behind them were about to burst out laughing.
His Human Emperor actually praised himself like that.
Aren't you ashamed?
