"Ye Chen, can you help us with some extra tutoring?" The attitudes of the several team members were very sincere.

"If we stay like this, we might not even be able to get a ranking."

Previously, they all felt that they were geniuses.

But now they realized that the gap between them and Ye Chen was far too large.

In front of Ye Chen, their arrogance had been completely smoothed away; instead, they were worried that their strength was too poor.

Ye Chen nodded almost without hesitation and said, "No problem."

Ye Chen did not refuse.

These students were geniuses themselves; it was simply that their way of thinking hadn’t been opened up.

As long as their thinking was opened, it would be easy to improve by a level.

As for them surpassing Ye Chen, he had never been worried about that.

With the system’s enhancement, Ye Chen could be said to be the smartest person in the world.

Furthermore, the reason Ye Chen participated in the Mathematical Olympiad was also for national honor.

From Ye Chen’s own perspective, making Li Sitong and Xia Yingluo happy was his true goal.

Ye Chen began tutoring the group.

Li Tongming was quite leisurely, having completely pushed the task of lecturing onto Ye Chen.

Sipping tea and occasionally discussing the Monster Group with Ye Chen, he was quite content.

Instead, Ye Chen had become the teacher of this Sprint Class.

Days passed by one by one.

And on this day, a piece of news once again shocked the world of mathematics.

In the international mathematics community, another prodigy had appeared.

A fifteen-year-old prodigy from Country M proved the Babu Paradox.

Among the world’s three major problems, Ye Chen had just solved Goldbachs Conjecture a while ago, and now someone had solved the Babu Paradox.

This matter directly impacted the mathematics community.

For nearly a hundred years, countless people in the scientific community had wanted to prove the mystery of the Babu Paradox, but all had failed.

At this moment, Old Hua found Li Tongming and placed the report on the desk.

"What do you think?" Old Hua asked.

"Country M has introduced a mathematical genius even younger than Ye Chen this time. This child is only fifteen; could this be targeted at Ye Chen?"

Li Tongming also frowned.

"The appearance of this child is too subtle. Without him, the champion of this International Mathematical Olympiad would surely have been Ye Chen."

"It seems Ye Chen has encountered a very powerful opponent."

...At this moment, Ye Chen also saw the news online.

However, Ye Chen picked up a pen and began sketching on some scratch paper.

Soon, Ye Chen’s brow furrowed.

"The Babu Paradox itself is flawed, so what is the point of proving it?"

Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Li Tongming was stunned for a moment.

"The Babu Paradox is flawed?"

Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Li Tongming’s expression became somewhat serious.

"Ye Chen, you can’t just say things like that. This is a very rigorous matter."

Ye Chen said, "Look, I just searched for information on the Babu Paradox online. His theory is the core viewpoint of function divergence; this concept itself is problematic."

Soon, Ye Chen wrote down a proof formula.

Seeing this formula, Li Tongming’s expression changed slightly.

"See, this formula can fully demonstrate that this proof is incorrect."

"What is the meaning of proving a flawed argument?"

Li Tongming looked at the proof and was instantly dumbfounded.

The originator of this proof was a Mathematicians named Babu. In 1960, he published a paper in Nature Magazine, arguing for the viewpoint of function divergence, which became known as the Babu Paradox. Many scientists had tried to prove this argument but failed.

However, everyone had been trying to prove that this theory was correct.

Yet Ye Chen used his own reasoning to prove that this theory was a failure.

When he saw Ye Chen’s complete argument, Li Tongming was already staring blankly.

He hurriedly took Ye Chen’s proof to find Old Hua.

When Old Hua saw Ye Chen’s proof, he was equally stunned.

Ye Chen’s proof process was extremely rigorous, using a total of seven methods to prove it.

This was simply too incredible.

A genius, an absolute genius.

But now a problem had arisen.

After all, that fifteen-year-old genius had just proven the Babu Paradox, yet Ye Chen directly proved that the Babu Paradox itself was incorrect.

This was clearly a slap in the face.

If this matter wasn’t handled well, it could likely lead to international academic issues.

Li Tongming looked at Old Hua and asked, "Should we publish it?"

After all, that child’s proof was issued by the Mathematical Society of Country M. Once this argument was sent out, it would be equivalent to openly challenging the entire mathematical system of Country M.

Old Hua took a deep breath. "Mathematics itself is rigorous. What’s wrong is wrong. If we know it’s a mistake and don’t correct it, it will also have a great impact on Ye Chen."

"Fine, then publish it." Old Hua also made his decision.

Soon, Old Hua published Ye Chen’s article in the name of the Chinese Mathematical Society.

Old Hua and Li Tongming had hesitated for a long time over whether to publish the article under Ye Chen’s name.

After all, once this article was published, Ye Chen would have to face the counterattack of the entire Country M mathematical system.

The two of them sought Ye Chen’s opinion and ultimately published it using Ye Chen’s name.

The publication of this paper immediately caused a stir in the mathematics community.

"Holy crap, even a paper from 1960 was dug up."

"Is there a grudge between the two sides? They came out to slap their faces so quickly."

"Both are geniuses. A few days ago, Ye Chen just cracked Goldbachs Conjecture, and now Kajo has cracked the Babu Paradox. The two sides are clearly competing."

"Was Goldbachs Conjecture really solved by that young man named Ye Chen? Do you think Kajo could actually crack the Babu Paradox? I think behind them is a clash between the mathematical communities of the two countries."

"Yeah, Kajo’s father is the president of the Mathematical Association of Country M, but that Ye Chen is truly a grassroots talent."

After this news was released, it caused a sensation in the mathematical communities of various countries.

Inside a Villa in Country M.

A middle-aged man posted an apology statement in front of his computer.

"Due to my own work error, I failed to discover the mistake in this proof."

Behind him, a young boy looked at the statement his father had issued, his expression somewhat ugly.

"Father, I’m sorry."

The middle-aged man looked kindly at the boy behind him. "Kajo, it’s alright. Everyone makes mistakes; that’s the most mysterious part of mathematics."

Kajo looked at his father and said seriously, "Father, is the gap between me and that Ye Chen from China really that large?"

"Of course not. Mathematics is very profound. Sometimes, a single inspiration can lead you to discover a whole new world. He just has better luck than you. I believe that in the upcoming International Mathematical Olympiad, you will definitely defeat him and bring back the championship trophy."

"Thank you, Father. I will definitely work hard to defeat Ye Chen and take back the trophy."

Kajo said goodbye to his father and retreated back into his room.

The middle-aged man checked the time; it was already two in the morning.

He let out a sigh.

They were determined to win this Mathematical Olympiad.

Although the other side had Ye Chen, with Kajo leading the team, they should be able to take back the trophy this time!"
