Novel Full Chapter 331 Education Sector
In the Moonlight Empire, in Moonshadow City:
“Huh~ I’m finally back!” Tesoro yelled out.
After near-death adventures in the Arcane Continent, he made it out alive and finally returned home.
Around the teleportation array, people kept looking at him as if he were a weird species.
Tesoro shook it off, exploring the ever-changing city.
“This city is as amazing as ever; I don’t know how big it has become,” Tesoro sighed in amazement.
In the past, when he was studying at the Moonlight Academy, coming to the capital of the empire, each scenery he saw seemed to be different.
Fortunately, various landmarks didn’t change much; if not, they became more luxurious.
Taking out his token, he called his friends.
…
In a certain restaurant, Tesoro’s friends came one by one.
“Long time no see! Where have you been?” His friend Zexel asked.
During the war, all the former students of the Moonlight Academy were called to support the war.
Seeing that Tesoro didn’t return, they thought he was dead.
Thus, seeing he was still alive, they couldn’t help but be shocked and happy.
“This… when I was exploring one of the treasure lands in Golden Domain, I got lost,” Tesoro scratched his head in embarrassment.
Unlike the Moonlight Empire, where everyone had a map ensuring you’d never get lost, in the Arcane Continent, only a selected few can have this privilege.
The treasure land he was exploring is famous for being not dangerous yet containing dazzling treasures.
The only catch is that the land is very big, full of puzzle-like arrays.
If one was unlucky, they could even get lost in the land for hundreds to thousands of years.
Fortunately for him, in just 30 years, he spotted a patrolling squad and managed to squeeze in.
Hearing his story, his friends laughed in understanding.
“Then you should have at least found some noteworthy treasure, right?” Diego asked.
“Yes, of course! I got this!” Tesoro took out a gold coin.
“A gold coin? Are you joking?”
“Don’t underestimate this.”
“This is a tier 9 initiate treasure: the Gold Coin of Wealth!”
“What can it do?!” Even Javier, who was taciturn, asked in disbelief.
“It is to gather wealth. After binding the treasure, I felt that the world’s vault had opened to me.”
“You could produce some gold coin? Or could it be that it’s good at stealing?”
“Of course not; I mean, it made me feel all kinds of wealth-making opportunities!”
“Just like the Moonlight Empire.”
“After I returned, I felt the luck of wealth seemed to overflow that everyone could pick money while walking!”
Although he still hadn’t fully investigated what happened, he felt that Moonlight Empire became a million times more grand.
“Hiss, it seems that it’s indeed an amazing treasure!”
“So, what about it? Are you with me?” Tesoro asked.Although he could do business alone, seeing his trusted friends, he couldn’t help but invite them.
“If you trust us this much, then we’re in!”
…
Deciding to set up a business together, they pooled their funds.
As graduates of the Moonlight Academy, they were quite wealthy, managing to pool over a trillion magic crystals.
This was already a hundred times the property of a tier 7 individual after saving for hundreds of years.
However, for them, it was merely a sum they had saved over the years.
Heading to the empire’s business administration, they registered their business name, ‘Golden Tesoro Inc.’
Holding over 51 percent of the shares, having his name in it was natural.
As for the business, Tesoro quickly suggested starting in the education sector.
A lackluster sector that no one dared to venture into.
The Moonlight Empire already had public schools everywhere, and even with the token, you could access free knowledge at home.
More importantly, no matter how grand a school became, it couldn’t surpass the Empire Academy.
Thus, building a private school on their own seemed like a foolish venture.
However, with the guidance of the Gold Coin, Tesoro saw the potential for soaring wealth in the education sector.
If the other businesses were like fireflies, then the wealth in the education sector was like the sun.
Trusting their friend, the other three didn’t voice their opinions.
Soon, with a budget of a trillion crystals, they recruited a construction company to create a mini-school city.
The land in the Moonlight Empire was dirt cheap.
As a benefit for entrepreneurs, the Moonlight Empire gave anyone the right to designate land in unplanned areas, regardless of size.
Furthermore, instead of paying one lump sum, the land was completely free, with payment only accruing once a hundred years had passed.
If not for the lack of money, Tesoro would have even built it the size of the Moonlight Academy.
Unfortunately, he could only dream about it.
…
Three years later, under the efforts of hundreds of thousands of proficient workers, the academy was finished.
With the boom of construction, specialized construction companies like this bloom like no other.
If not for seeing the potential of the education section, he could start this as their first business.
Looking at the empty school, Tesoro sighed.
Now, only one thing was missing: students.
“Huh~”
Taking a deep breath, Tesoro started his plan.
“I hope this works…”
…
In the Moonlight Academy:
The largest academy in the empire spanning over a square light-year, or ten septillion kilometers.
Of course, the land is just land; various infrastructures are still being built.
This was a million-year plan, building the most complete education institution besides the Origin Arcana Institute.
At the Academy’s gate, a vigorous entrance exam was being conducted.
Latin and his five sisters were in the crowd, nervously awaiting their turn.
“Do you think we can pass, brother?”
“Yes, just trust yourself; we haven’t been working hard for a decade for nothing.”
“But what if we don’t pass, brother?”
“You must be. I’ll ensure it!”
“But-“
“Shh, don’t speak; let’s see what will happen later and decide.”
“Just be confident.”
The admission test of the Moonlight Academy is said to be the hardest thing ever.
It said that it was easier to be a class 1 citizen than to be accepted as a student of the academy.
The only saving grace is there is no limit to talent.
Whether you have trash or divine talent, as long as you didn’t pass the test, you wouldn’t be qualified for the academy.
Especially now, with hundreds of trillions of students enrolling every year, the test has become stricter and stricter.
Soon, the first test began a normal test measuring talent and affinity.
Latin and his sisters passed with flying colors, having at least rank 3 potential and rank 5 affinities in one element.
“Nice start!”
“We can do this, brother!”
“As I said, you must be geniuses.”
“Just take the exam confidently, and everything will turn out alright.”
However, what faced them next was a nightmare.
The next test was a written one.
In each field of magic, like alchemy, mechanics, array, runes, forging, etc.
A hundred thousand questions needed to be answered within the time limit.
Within a month, they need to take a total of 5 billion questions.
Just a week before the test, the 5 sisters were already ready to give up.
They can’t eat, sleep, or do any activities during the exam.
The only thing they could do was think, think, and think.
After taking a special potion, they were like drug addicts who wouldn’t fall in a month, no matter what happened.
Looking at his sister’s pitiful faces, Latin sighed.
“You can do this! You’re my proud sister; nothing could defeat you!”
With Latin encouragement, the 5 sisters seemed to be energized and managed to complete the test.
Others, however, were not so lucky; although there was a special potion, they didn’t have the will to stay that long.
Answering billions of questions?
How could they even survive that?
From hundreds of trillions, there were only less than a hundred billion examines left.
Meanwhile, Latin and his sisters barely passed the test with some luck.
They had only been in the Moonlight Empire for over ten years.
Although they were diligent and smart, it wasn’t enough to catch up to those geniuses who had been nurtured since childhood.
After all, the empire only provides free education, not free resources.
Just those memory potions that could help you remember everything could already send others ahead for a few blocks.
Unfortunately, it was too expensive; as a class two citizen, they didn’t have that extravagance.
The next exam was the fighting test, in which hundreds of people went to a virtual battlefield and fought each other for life.
In this test, Latin and his sisters were separated.
Despite being worried, Latin tried his best to survive.
Being responsible since young, Latin was quite the survivor.
Against all odds, he managed to survive in the top million and become one of the top scorers.
Unfortunately, what greeted him was the sad look of his sisters.
Because they were too coddled up, their fighting experience was almost nonexistent.
In the first hours, they were ambushed one after the other like powerless individuals.
To this, Latin could do nothing but give them comfort.
“Don’t worry; there is still a last test. If you did your best, you could still pass.”
“Sigh, we can only do our best.”
“I’m fine as long as my brother manages to pass.”
“Fighting!”
“Let’s Go!”
Soon, the last test began.
The principal of the academy, Silver Atom, personally conducted this test.
Leading them to an open space, Silver Atom slowly released his pressure.
From tier 1 pressure, tier 2, tier 3…
Latin fell like the sky was falling against him.
The air became thicker; the gravity multiplied, and even his blood seemed to stop flowing.
Turning his head, he saw his sister out cold.
With anger and fury, Latin resisted the pressure, slowly walking towards the stage, still not understanding what they were into.
Unfortunately, the pressure the principal released slowly increased.
Before he could even take a few steps, he was knocked out at 5th-tier pressure.
Soon, all the students were knocked out.
Looking at the students who survive up to 7 tier and some interesting individuals, Silver Atom smiled.
“Not bad, the examinees this time are quite interesting…”
