Chapter 257 Titans Face Off

Milly knew her strong and weak points quite well. It wouldn’t be her best moment if she had to sit for a language exam. But, throw her into a math or physics contest, and she’d shine – her skills were unbeatable. Throughout her Ph.D. program at a top university, she earned the nickname ‘Problem–Solving Prodigy,‘ reigning supreme for four years straight. Only after she moved on from academia did others finally get a break from her dominance.

The thrill of tackling challenging problems today reignited her passion for academia, making Milly grin and declare, “Time to dive in.”

Meanwhile, Anthony, hearing about the upcoming test, also got his game face on. Competition wasn’t the issue. Testing was where Milly shined, and he was all in on her skills. Having shared classrooms with Milly, he was no stranger to her problem–solving knack.

Jonathan leaned towards Milly, whispering encouragement, “You got this, Milly!”

Milly responded with a nod and gratitude, “Thanks, Jonathan. I’m going all out.”

Just as she was about to start, someone else snatched her test paper.

Milly was speechless.

All of a sudden, Xavier, who was standing off to the side and had gone unnoticed, walked up to her. He grabbed the test paper from her hand and scrutinised it with a frown.

Milly arched an eyebrow. “I’m on it.”

Xavier’s brow furrowed in confusion. “Really? Do you grasp the concept of an experimental demonstration essay?”

Milly stayed calm and said, “Indeed, I do. It’s about using certain experimental methods as proof and forming conclusions from those experiments, which we call the thesis. But the thesis isn’t the last word; to fully answer the question, we need to apply a range of theoretical knowledge too, don’t we, Xavier?”

Her renly was unmistakable almost too straightforward
