Given the task definition, example input & output, solve the new input case.
In this task, you are given a list of integers and an integer k. You need to find the kth smallest element in the input list and return that.
Example: [163, 290, 90, 51, 96, 86, 282, 265, 10, 85, 91, 201, 68, 126, 26, 228, 229, 236, 31, 71], k=14
Output: 201
201 is the 14th smallest element in the input list.

New input case for you: [194, 272, 269, 186, 259, 148, 150, 53, 222, 168, 197, 133, 31, 12, 29, 205, 67, 123, 81, 89], k=7
