Crossing the stars, I live-streamed my cultivation in kindergarten

Chapter 454 Interstellar Supreme Court 4
With each statement Hilcher made, he submitted corresponding evidence to the jury, such as food testing reports, pup testing reports, and so on.

I don't believe Ms. Hilcher's evidence unless Sunshine Kindergarten sends me a copy of every single food item that appeared in the live stream and videos!

[Hehe, I don't believe it either, unless you send me a copy too!]

"...I could hear your schemes even from another galaxy."

[I'm reporting that Sunshine Kindergarten does indeed implement a terrible punishment for its students! That is—deducting their little red flowers! Not a single child at Sunshine Kindergarten is unafraid of having their little red flowers deducted.]

[It was truly terrifying. I even have screenshots of the terrified looks on the faces of the little bear cubs when they were stripped of their little red flowers!]

[King Bamboo Summer (in horror): Twenty little red flowers upside down!]

[I have an even scarier piece of news to share: Jiang Youan's red flower count is still negative!]

That's really scary. Poor An'an.

One of the orcs with a negative number of red flowers froze.

After Hilcher finished explaining the technical aspects, he handed over control to Jiang Yuxi.

This is her battlefield, and her brilliance should not be overshadowed by anyone, not even them.

This was something the three of them had agreed upon.

Jiang Yuxi quickly adjusted the slight confusion caused by the "deviation in video style and effect" and restored her previous proud and indifferent demeanor. "I believe that every beastman can distinguish the truth from falsehood of the above unfounded accusations."

The next document is the tuition contract we signed with each student's parents when the kindergarten opened. Since its inception, the kindergarten has had five different types of tuition contracts…”

The person on the other end shouted excitedly, "If you weren't hiding something and the tuition was so high, why would you create so many different contracts!"

They knew they were fighting like cornered beasts, but they still refused to give up. No matter what Jiang Yuxi said, they wanted to stick to their guns. If they could sever ties, that would be best, but if not, their situation wouldn't get any worse.

Actually, I think it's understandable that Sunshine Kindergarten's tuition is a bit higher.

I agree. Putting everything else aside, just considering the quality of the teaching staff alone, the tuition fees would be prohibitively high for most orcs, regardless of where the school was located.

[Putting everything else aside, do you know how much the First Comprehensive Academy of the Imperial Star paid Lord Hilcher for a year when he invited him to be a lecturer? It's enough to buy at least half a planet in a remote area! And that's just the salary for teaching one course!]

I remember Mr. Hilcher was teaching several subjects at Sunshine Kindergarten, didn't he? Since he arrived, some of Ms. Yi's courses have had different teachers, and a new elective course—Manufacturing and Application—has been added?

[...While I can understand, good educational resources come with exorbitant tuition fees, meaning only nobles and wealthy individuals can afford such education. What are we, the commoner children, supposed to do?]

So, I need to be prepared to accept the exorbitant price. If it's something I can achieve through hard work, I'd like my future children to receive this kind of elite education.

No one wants their cub to lose at the starting line, but there's no way around it; some things can't be achieved simply by gritting your teeth and fighting hard... It's cruel, but it's the truth.

Jiang Yuxi picked up the first contract. "This is the tuition contract for the first batch of students in the kindergarten, namely Hei Mo, Jia Xio... and the other eight students."

Frederick added at the opportune moment, "Jiang Youan was admitted under special circumstances, so no tuition fees were charged."

Shi Yuejin's straight back seemed to bend slightly without his noticing, and the smile on his face, which had been watching the show, disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.

The male, who had been staring intently at the back of Jiang Yuxi's head in thought, felt a chill run down his spine.

[Everyone knows how Little Tiger staged an accident, how he managed to sneak into the kindergarten to freeload, and how Principal Xixi detained him to "pay off his debts."]

[Damn, am I blind? How come I see the contract saying the tuition for a year is 10,000 star coins? Did I miss the word "thousand"? I told you I shouldn't stare at the live stream all day; now you've ruined your eyes.]

[I saw that too... It's still installment payment? Twelve installments?]

[Twelve installments, interest-free? That means you only need to pay 833.3333 yuan per month...?]

I looked at the 8.33 million yuan in my interstellar bank account, the education fund I'd set aside for my unborn child. Does that mean that if my future child goes to Sunshine Kindergarten, he/she can study for 10,000 months?! No, wait, it seems like I'm still short 333 cents per month...

[...Ten thousand months? Eight hundred and thirty-three years? Wake up, buddy! The average lifespan of our beast race is only around three hundred years. Eight hundred years? Do you want your future cubs to have their ashes buried in Sunshine Kindergarten for hundreds of years after they die?]

[Family, I can afford this tuition! Now it's just a matter of checking on accommodation, meals, and other additional costs!]

[Little female, turn the page quickly! I want to see the next one.]

[I don't understand... What kind of kindergarten is Sunshine Kindergarten? Why are you orcs with the Empire's IP so crazy?]

Has the Empire really fallen to this level? Even kindergartens with tuition of 10,000 star coins are being sought after by so many orcs? It seems its development has lagged behind; it's not even as good as our Great Federation!

Jiang Yuxi turned to the next page, which contained only one sentence: "Register on the day of registration, and all tuition, fees and meal expenses for the entire year at school will be waived for the child!"

Now even the live stream chat disappeared.

The former staff member of the Imperial Supreme Court was speechless and broke down.

"￥%@@……@You big idiot@%……"

The group started cursing.

There have been schools that have set extremely low tuition fees in the past, but other fees are exorbitant.

They are exploiting loopholes to charge exorbitant tuition fees.

Judging from their own experience, they would naturally think that Jiang Yuxi was like that as well.

They thought it might not be much, but they never expected it to be completely free!
Is this the kind of tuition fee I'll live to see?

In one sentence, he expressed the sentiments of more than a billion online viewers.

With a cold glare from the Merman King, the sea beastmen below him immediately began to shock the agitated and hurling insults at the beastmen.

It worked very well; they quickly calmed down, huddled up and trembling.

Jiang Yuxi continued to show the second contract, "Calling it a tuition contract isn't quite accurate. This is a 'School Enrollment Contract for All Eligible Beast Cubs on Ester Star,' signed with the planet's leader before the evaluation on Hailan Star. It clearly stipulates that all eligible beast cubs on this planet must attend Sunshine Kindergarten..."

Former staff member of the Imperial Supreme Court: "The fox's tail has been revealed, hasn't it? The low tuition fees before were all a trap, just a way to swindle money from the current mandatory contract..."

They learned their lesson and dared not make a sound, only whispering among themselves. Jiang Yuxi: "...The tuition is the same as the first batch of students, but the payment method has changed. First, the payer has changed from the student's parent to the student in person..."

A former staff member of the Imperial Supreme Court exclaimed, "Absurd! How could a mere child possibly afford such exorbitant tuition fees! This is nothing short of child abuse..."

Jiang Yuxi: "...There are two payment methods. The most popular choice among students is work-study programs. Here are some work-study positions available at our kindergarten: cleaning classrooms after class, watering and fertilizing the school's plants,..."

Former staff member of the Imperial Supreme Court: "...blatant disguised torture..." He couldn't continue.

Jiang Yuxi gave a shy smile: "Since this batch of cubs enrolled, the school no longer needs professional robots for cleaning. Teacher Yi Yi has also been promoted from a logistics staff member to the head of the logistics department, and occasionally conducts regular inspections and random checks on the campus's cleanliness. Labor is glorious, and the cubs are very serious about it. Every inspection and random check has received an excellent rating."

Former staff member of the Imperial Supreme Court: "@￥@#%*..."

The sea beastmen who had just been electrocuted stood up silently without waiting for the merman king's order, and they immediately fell silent.

When I was studying at the university, I covered all my expenses except for tuition by working part-time.

[A kindergarten kid, working part-time, with a rather unconventional style.]

Am I the only one who noticed the words "good paper"?

[Sorry, all I could see on the little female's face was a huge expression of satisfaction.]

[I didn't expect there to be anything related to Teacher Yi Yi here?]

So, there's a reason why Teacher Yi was promoted.

Jiang Yuxi: "Another way to pay tuition is to exchange red flowers for star coins at a ratio of 1:100, so one red flower can be exchanged for one hundred star coins. However, it may not be cost-effective? Almost no students choose this payment method."

At this point, Jiang Yuxi still seemed a little emotional.

She was incredibly proud when she came up with this Little Red Book redemption scheme. She even specifically informed every parent and student about it.

In the end, it was never used at all.

Isn't it because there are too many things you can redeem with the little red flowers?

[I know how to do this question. The red flower exchange for star coins is on the first page of the exchange machine, first option, and the current exchange quantity is 0.]

I was initially surprised that such a redemption option existed. Turns out it was for paying tuition.

[Isn't any of the beasts concerned about why the young females are forcing all their cubs of school age to attend school?]

Does "all cubs of suitable age" include cubs that have become half-beasts?

Jiang Yuxi tried to persuade him for a long time, but he still couldn't finish what he was going to say.

That was the draft that Frederick and the others had written for her.

But it seems a bit shameful to boast about something so ordinary in public.

The school had almost finished enrolling students, and she hadn't done anything so awkwardly boastful in a long time, so she was momentarily speechless.

So she naturally took out the next contract. "Many netizens who have watched our school's live broadcast should know that although some of the cubs enrolled when they were on Hailan Star and belonged to the second batch of enrollment, according to the contract signing time, they should actually be the third batch."

The five students, Mu Yunke, He Wenzhao, Lin Xihe, Meng Youwei, and Tang Lexuan, were admitted because they were admitted as family members of the teachers through a preferential admission program. Therefore, their tuition fees were paid based on the teachers' contributions.

As for the fact that Mu Yunke's cub did not take up Frederick's family's preferential quota and even paid two "sponsorship fees," there's no need to bring that up.

[Actually, I think even if they use the internal employee discount channel, there's no need to use the teacher's contribution points to pay. Star coins are a reasonable payment method. If all else fails, the beast children can work part-time or earn their own little red flowers to pay for their tuition.]

[That's absolutely right. Teachers' contributions are hard-earned, and the children are all grown up now; it's time they learned to be independent and pay their own tuition.]

[...I racked my brains for a moment and think I've figured out the identities of those guys who were shouting the loudest...]

Next came the fourth contract, but Jiang Yuxi did not elaborate on it.

"This is the 'Enrollment Contract' signed between our Sunshine Kindergarten and the Erwin family. Part of the tuition is not paid in star coins, but rather in the shipping routes opened up by the Erwin family between Star Esther and other planets."

This is why many netizens and fans can buy finished handmade projects made by our school's students online.

Because this involves an exchange of education and resources between us and the Elwin family, and has nothing to do with others, it's inconvenient to disclose it. From then on, Star Esther entered the free shipping zone, and she could see the two big, prominent words "Free Shipping" on every shopping platform she placed an order!
Every time I see it, I feel gratified.

This was the second most profitable deal she'd ever made—no, starting today it's the most profitable one.

After all, the most cost-effective purchase before was that live streaming equipment.

There's no need to mention the fact that Chu Yi transferred ten million Star Coins directly to her public account to reserve a "degree" without her knowledge.

Even if the other party transfers the money a lot, this is a matter between her and the Erwin family.

Although Sunshine Kindergarten is affiliated with the Imperial official kindergarten, its income and expenditure are independent. On the first day of their meeting, President Esther Star clearly exempted the kindergarten from all taxes during its operation.

Moreover, she didn't even have time to hold onto those star coins before they were taken by the Interstellar Bank to repay a loan...

Speaking of this "Enrollment Contract," Jiang Yuxi couldn't help but exclaim, "Hilcher, the young ones in your family are really lively." Moreover, they have an exceptionally high level of comprehension and progress at a rapid pace.

She didn't say anything more, because she was afraid that there were students and parents watching in the live stream.

We should not put academic pressure on them.

The Erwin family's "new recruits" who were mentioned: Principal Xi praised us in front of the clan leader! They will definitely be among the outstanding members of the family at the end of this year!
Yan Siyun, who was also watching the live stream: Public execution? This is a disgrace to the entire intergalactic world.

Hilcher, who later learned the truth, said, "...Hmm."

Jiang Yuxi had no idea what she had done. She took out the last tuition contract and said, "This is the last tuition contract, and it is also the main source of income for the kindergarten. It is true that the tuition in this contract is a little more expensive than other tuition fees."

This is an undeniable fact. It was also the first time that Sunshine Kindergarten had made a fortune from tuition fees that were almost nonexistent.

If it weren't for the scholarship...
