Chapter 624: Once Sister 347 hooks her lips, things get complicated..._3

Simon, Xia Ye, and the programmers from A University fine-tuned the program; the timer started, and the three robots sprang into action.

This test was really hard; using chopsticks to pick up a raw egg was no easy feat, not just for robots, but also for humans.

Moreover, the production team didn’t use ordinary eggs but rutin eggs instead.

Rutin eggs were very small, similar to quail eggs, with particularly fragile shells that were especially easy to break.

’Crack—’

A University’s Eva had already crushed the third egg.

The sound engineer played a few awkward notes, and the audience burst into laughter.

Eva was a powerhouse Barbie, her strength was her advantage, but it was indeed a weak point in this task.

Looking at Paul and Silver Fox, they picked up each egg and put it down with movements that were crisp and precise in both force and control.

Both were equally matched in speed, neither gaining the upper hand.

A minute quickly entered the countdown.

"5, 4, 3, 2...1!"

The host finished counting, and Paul and Silver Fox stopped their movements on the dot, obediently retreating to the side, while the judges began counting.

"East China University of Science and Technology’s Paul, a total of 31 eggs."

"Beijing University’s Silver Fox...also 31 eggs!"

It was a tie, and the audience erupted with discussions; the judges found it difficult to score.

"Wow, how exciting! The same number of eggs!"

"This definitely isn’t scripted! Xia Ye controlling the robot looked so cool!"

"To be on par with Simon, that’s really bringing honor to us!"

Jiang Feng gave Shen Zhixi a meaningful glance, and feeling his gaze, Shen Zhixi turned and nodded to him.

Certainly, Jiang Feng hadn’t expected Beijing University’s robot to tie with theirs in this segment, especially since they had spent a hefty sum to bring in Simon, the engineer from M Country who had won many international awards.

Moreover, just by appearance, their Paul was highly realistic, from skin to expression, while Silver Fox looked like a half-finished product.

Simon himself was also taken aback. To be honest, when he had first been invited to join the team from East China University of Science and Technology, he had hesitated since he was already an award-winning figure in the field of computer engineering, and he didn’t want others to feel like he was picking on newcomers.

But he hadn’t expected...

He glanced over at the team from Beijing University.

Just now, the host had introduced the female engineer from the opposing team, who seemed to be called Xia Ye.

He hadn’t heard this name in the computer engineering field before...

The judges began to combine the scores from the first two segments to decide the first team to advance. Jiang Feng, listening on the side, slightly nervously adjusted his tie.

Fortunately, the final result fulfilled his wish. Although they tied in the second segment, when combined with the first, the judges ultimately decided that Paul had the edge.

The reason given was: Paul’s appearance was more complete, and his realistic expression provided a better visual experience.

"What, I think the expressions made with Silver Fox’s display are cuter."

"That’s obviously giving face to Simon; I heard this is his first time competing in China."

"Unfair!"

From the second-floor stands, Jiang Xuan held a teacup, frowning imperceptibly.

He evidently was not satisfied with the judges’ decision.

Dong Mao was very considerate: "Master, do you want to have them pause the recording?"

Jiang Xuan fell silent for a moment: "It’s just one more match to contend, it doesn’t affect much."

Dong Mao took two seconds to understand the president’s meaning: "That’s true~"

Forget the president; even he felt confident about Xia Ye in the upcoming championship match between Beijing University and A University for the other qualifying spot.

The online comments and the live audience had differing opinions, but once the judges had made a decision, they would not change it, so everyone could only hope for the next segment, segment three.

Of course, there were many more professional ways to test a robot’s performance, but to increase the entertainment value of the competition and excite the audience, the production team finally decided to let the two robots arm wrestle to determine the winner.

This method of competition sounded simple but was actually quite indicative.

To win at arm wrestling, robots needed not only explosive power but also sustained force and the ability to adjust the force angle in real-time.

For the sake of fairness, all competition content was announced on the spot, and none of the teams knew it in advance.

When the host announced the nature of the competition, A University’s team members laughed.

As mentioned before, their Eva was a Powerhouse Barbie, not good at delicate tasks like picking up eggs with chopsticks, but arm wrestling was right up her alley.

Looking at the tall, slender service robot Silver Fox from Beijing University, they thought it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Eva could very likely break its arm right off.

Yet in the face of such a disadvantageous competition, they saw Xia Ye from the opposite team curve her lips into a meaningful smile...
