Chapter 5: Kindergarten Half-Day Trial Class (Part 2)
Second-floor combat training classroom.
Jiang Yuxi sat at her desk, seemingly slowly sipping tea, but her consciousness was actually observing every Beastmen and cub in the classroom.
The cubs sat in their seats, wearing training helmets, eagerly experiencing the combat class on the Star Network.
The female Beastmen parents stood beside them, nervously watching their cubs.
This was the legendary B-grade cub training ground.
It was said that the combat courses inside were demonstrated by top Interstellar Beastmen warriors.
It could also automatically select the appropriate tutorials based on the Beastmen's race and aptitude.
Only the super powerful Kindergartens on large planets could possess it; it was specifically for training cubs.
It cost a billion star coin! And one needed specific authorization to be eligible to buy it.
Something even the Planet Master couldn't acquire!
In the hearts of the Beastmen on Aisite Star, the Planet Master was the only noble female they had ever seen.
Now, suddenly, such a powerful noble female had arrived, and they were all incredibly curious.
If Secretary-General hadn't repeatedly warned them to remain calm in front of this noble female, they would have long since been unable to resist discussing it loudly.
Most importantly, their planet was finally going to have a Kindergarten!
They heard that cubs on larger planets outside started Kindergarten from a young age, which was why they became so successful.
On Aisite Star, Beastmen cubs who wanted to attend school could only wait for the Interstellar enrollment of the Junior Academy, which happened once every ten years. If they met the aptitude requirements and passed the assessment, they could go to school on a larger planet with the enrollment staff.
However, Interstellar enrollment always only recruited the most outstanding and promising Beastmen cubs.
For a remote planet like Aisite Star, the recruitment conditions were even more stringent: male cubs needed one of their physical abilities or mental strength potential to be S-grade, while female cubs needed their mental strength to be A-grade or above.
Now that their planet had a Kindergarten, as long as the cubs passed their Kindergarten graduation assessment, they could directly advance to the elementary academy of their respective star system, without needing to go through the strict Interstellar enrollment conditions.
This meant their cubs had a chance to escape their low-tier fate.
Because Jiang Yuxi was a weak fighter and couldn't teach the little cubs combat skills, she directly bought the best courses.
One million per year, matched with the best online courses based on the cub's genetic and talent test, with unlimited video viewing.
Debt increased by one million, now totaling 2.5 million.
However, you get what you pay for.
The combat demonstration teachers in the videos were all top-ranked in the Interstellar, and there were corresponding intelligent assistant instructors to ensure the cubs would not be harmed during virtual training on the Star Network.
For example, Hei Mo's online teacher was the top Interstellar warrior, Lord Lin. Lin, 51 years old this year, has SS-grade mental strength, an eight-grade combat level, and is currently the captain of the Sunday Legion's third squad…
With such a resume for a cub combat teacher, it was no exaggeration to say he was the pinnacle of online teachers.
Among the eight Beastmen cubs, except for Doris of the Bird Clan, whose course was matched to an A-grade six-level Interstellar warrior due to mental strength attribute issues, all the others had S or SS-grade teachers.
The mental strength level of male Beastmen determined the type and level of their abilities.
Combat level was assessed and determined by physical fitness and actual combat ability.
The earliest geneticists believed that male Beastmen with mental strength levels at SSS+ and combat levels at thirteen or above could theoretically be considered to have reached a divine level, the level of divine beasts in ancient Blue Star legends.
However, in tens of thousands of years, no Beastmen had ever reached that height.
The combat experience class also lasted only a short hour.
Back in the first-floor classroom, Jiang Yuxi stood at the podium.
“Besides cultural classes, combat classes, and Physical Education, our Sunshine Kindergarten has also referenced the curricula of well-known schools like Empire Star First Kindergarten and Empire Star Noble Kindergarten, offering corresponding handicraft classes, painting classes, music classes, and cooking classes.
Considering our actual Interstellar situation, we have additionally added a film class and an Interstellar life class. The film class primarily shows popular Interstellar movies and TV series suitable for cubs, while the Interstellar life class mainly focuses on understanding the living habits, customs, social etiquette, and so on, of Beastmen on other planets.
The purpose of adding these two courses is for the cubs to keep up with current events and to prepare them for attending Junior Academy in the future.”
Her students would naturally leave Aisite Star in the future. On this backward planet where even the Star Network couldn't be fully popularized, this was the only way to let her students understand the outside world.
Jiang Yuxi's original intention was indeed for her students to adapt more quickly to life outside Aisite Star.
However, without the original owner's complete memories, she had no specific memories of life and learning in the interstellar era. The original owner, forced to leave Empire Star in a hurry, also didn't have the opportunity to deeply understand the Empire Star Kindergarten curriculum. She could only find the enrollment timetables of various Kindergartens on the Star Network and, based on her own understanding and her past Kindergarten experience on Blue Star, set up corresponding courses.
But what she never expected was that the Interstellar Kindergarten curriculum was so different from what she understood.
The so-called most popular movies were not at all the movies and TV series she imagined, which were derived from and recorded life. They might also be Beastmen's fantastical, imaginative films.
However, in front of her now were a group of Beastmen from Aisite Star who were even more “country bumpkins” than her.
From birth to marriage and having children, they had never left this planet.
As a planet abandoned by the Empire, even the Planet Master could only barely maintain the semblance of nobility with subsidies, completely lacking the ability to fully lay out an Interstellar network for the entire planet.
The Beastmen within the planet naturally had no opportunity to understand the outside world through the network.
In other words, everyone in this classroom, including the transmigrated Jiang Yuxi, and even all the indigenous people of the entire planet, were what Beastmen on other planets would call “country bumpkins who haven't even gotten online yet.”
However, Jiang Yuxi was still unaware of this at the moment.
She always believed herself to be a “professional.”
Professional matters should definitely be left to professionals.
More than 300 years of experience raising cubs made her full of confidence, firmly believing that she could produce the most outstanding graduates.
However, none of the Beastmen and cubs in the classroom knew any of this.
In the eyes of these female Beastmen, Jiang Yuxi was a noble female from Empire Star, an excellent graduate of the Empire's highest academy, a true Empire Star person who had seen the big world!
And in the eyes of the cubs, this Director Jiang was the best and gentlest female they had ever seen. Not only would she give them the best breakfast on all of Aisite Star—no, in the entire Interstellar—but she would also praise them super gently for being so great and amazing.
They super, super loved Director Jiang!
At this moment, the cubs' thoughts were uniformly aligned.
Even if they didn't understand Director Jiang's words, the cubs' little faces, like their mothers', were flushed with excitement. Their naive, innocent eyes tried hard to stay wide open, watching Director Jiang on the podium without blinking.
After introducing the Kindergarten's situation, it was time for today's main event.
Jiang Yuxi took a deep breath, feigning calmness: “Today, our Sunshine Kindergarten's half-day experience is about to end. Are there any parents who want to enroll their cubs? The annual tuition fee is ten thousand star coin, and installments are available. If you enroll now, you also get a free year of breakfast and lunch.
Everyone can come up and receive today's small gift—one D-grade growth fluid for each child. Parents who wish to enroll their children can also fill out an application form. After collecting your gifts and enrolling, we can go for lunch and conclude today's activities.”
The tuition fees for Kindergartens on other more developed planets started at a minimum of one hundred thousand per year, with the highest being Empire Star Noble Kindergarten and Empire Star First Kindergarten, at ten million. Cub's meal expenses were extra.
Clearly, that tuition standard had no relevance on Aisite Star.
On Aisite Star, where the average monthly income was a few hundred star coin, even when benchmarked against the cheapest Kindergarten fees, almost no one on the entire planet, except for a few wealthy families, could afford this tuition.
After a thorough understanding of the local income situation, she reluctantly set this almost cheap enrollment fee.
Fortunately, the Empire provided subsidies for education on remote planets.
The Kindergarten's annual final assessment would reward the Kindergarten based on the students' assessment results.
Furthermore, there were many Interstellar competitions between Kindergartens each year, with extremely generous prizes and awards!
She roughly calculated that Hailan Star Kindergarten, which won the most awards last year, received over ten small targets in prize money alone.
Her goal this year was to lead the cubs to actively participate in various competitions and become incredibly rich together!
