However, for children without cultivation talent, there are not many good academies in this world to impart knowledge to them.

In response to this situation, Yun Qiong established a family school to teach knowledge and skills to the family members.

Today is the second day of capturing Soul Beast.

In the early morning, the children sat in their seats, excitedly discussing the banquet of the previous night.

"I wonder when I'll be able to taste Soul Beast Meat again."

A chubby little boy, recalling the taste of seal meat, couldn't help but drool.

Beside him, a thin boy said, "Xiao Lin, haven't you heard? Starting today, the school will provide us with Soul Beast Meat every noon."

"What! Such a good thing? Xiao Ming, you're not lying to me, are you?" Chubby Xiao Lin slammed his hand on the table and stood up, asking anxiously.

The thin and Xiao Ming nodded firmly and said, "My dad told me about it yesterday."

Xiao Lin knew that Xiao Ming's father was a crew member of the Soul Hunting Fleet and a person of relatively high status in the family. Since it was Xiao Ming's father who said it, it must be true.

He sat down again, excitedly swinging his legs, eagerly anticipating lunchtime.

The children around them felt the same way.

A short while later, the teacher who taught the class walked into the room.

Before the teacher could even stand on the podium, chubby Xiao Lin immediately raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, I heard that we'll be serving Soul Beast Meat at noon. Is that true?"

Looking at the countless expectant eyes below the stage, the teacher smiled and replied, "It seems the news spreads quickly. That's right, starting today, the school will provide everyone with Soul Beast Meat at noon. Moreover, it will be Soul Beast Meat from a two-thousand-year-old Poison Horn Devouring Sea Leopard that was captured yesterday."

"Wow!"

The audience erupted in uproar.

Xiao Lin jumped up excitedly.

Seeing everyone's excitement, the teacher's lips curled into a sly smile.

He said, "However, don't be too happy yet."

Then, the teacher said loudly, "This Soul Beast Meat is not free for you. I will score each person based on the training course this morning, and the Soul Beast Meat that each person can be allocated will be strictly distributed according to the score."

"Ah! How could this happen?"

Chubby Xiao Lin touched his plump flesh and said with a bitter face.

Xiao Ming, who was standing nearby, laughed and said, "I told you not to lose weight, now you're in big trouble."

"Alright, everyone quiet down, let's begin class now."

The courses for young children are not very advanced; they usually tell interesting stories and anecdotes about Vast Sea City.

Today, the teacher told a story about the family hunting Sea Soul Beast. In this story, they focused on how the clansmen used their wisdom and courage to defeat Soul Beast that were stronger than themselves.

Although some secrets and details could not be revealed, even the censored version of the story still got them excited.

For non- Spirit Master to kill Soul Beast has a profound impact on the mental development of these children.

The fun and educational morning class has ended, and it's time for morning training.

The teachers and children came together into a huge stadium.

The stadium is a large Swimming Pool built by the family.

The long and wide Swimming Pool can easily accommodate hundreds of children.

The children changed into their swimsuits and gathered at the Swimming Pool.

During their morning training session, they practiced swimming.

Living in Vast Sea City, learning to swim is an essential survival skill. Moreover, for the Quan Family, who need to go out to sea to hunt, it is their duty to educate children from a young age.

The teacher held a wooden board with the children's forms on it.

He turned to the children standing in neat rows and said, "From today onwards, I will evaluate your performance based on your swimming speed, distance, and time."

This score will determine the weight you receive. I hope you will take it seriously.

After speaking, the teacher looked at the children with a deep gaze, thinking to herself, "That's all I can say. I hope you can all work hard."

This score is actually an indicator for judging the amount of physical activity a child gets.

Soul Beast Meat is a highly nutritious food for children, and distributing it indiscriminately is not a good thing for them.

However, by using scoring to determine a child's autonomy, it is possible to not only motivate the child's autonomy but also to assign appropriate weight to the child.

This can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

However, most children did not understand what this meant and were indifferent to it.

At their age, they don't really have much knowledge, so of course they wouldn't know what this matter means.

Even if some children are ordered by their parents to behave well, they don't care too much.

That's all the teachers can do. After all, it's part of the test, and the family's resources aren't unlimited. All they can offer is fairness in the rules.

"First group, step forward and begin five round trips."

Five children stepped forward and stood by the water.

As soon as the teacher blew the whistle, the five of them jumped in, including the skinny Xiao Ming.

Despite his Xiao Ming stature, Xiaoming is an excellent swimmer. Among the Xiao Ming is the fastest. While the other children have only swum halfway across, he has already reached the other side.

The teacher nodded in satisfaction, and then began to sketch on the wooden board.

After five round trips, Xiao Ming stopped panting by the pool, while the other students were still on their fourth round trip.

Xiao Ming performed even better than usual today.

His classmates, who usually looked down on him, were also incredibly surprised.

The teacher's eyes lit up, and he had a slight guess in his mind, but he did not show any particular expression.

He simply said sternly, "Xiao Ming, you can come up and prepare for the next group after you finish swimming."

Xiao Ming climbed up and, being sensible, ran to the back of the line.

At the very back, Xiao Lin looked at the panting Xiao Ming and teased, "I didn't expect you to like Soul Beast Meat too. I've never seen you so enthusiastic about food before, why are you so eager when Soul Beast Meat is mentioned?"

Xiao Ming glanced at him and whispered, "What do you know?"

After a while, once his breathing had calmed down, he patted Xiao Lin on the shoulder and said, "Remember, you must perform well later."

Xiao Lin was a little puzzled, but still replied with a smile, "Of course, this concerns the flesh of Soul Beast Meat, how could I not work hard?"

Xiao Lin's mind was filled with the rich, savory aroma of meat that lingered in his mouth from the previous night.

A moment later, drool started flowing from the corner of his mouth again.

Xiao Ming helplessly held his forehead.

Before long, it was Xiao Lin's turn.

Xiao Lin was eager to try, standing on the shore with a serious air, warming himself up.

"Ready, beep!"

At the teacher's command, Xiao Lin, with his larger size and explosive power, jumped into the Swimming Pool.

His chubby body unexpectedly unleashed a power and speed that surprised everyone.

Xiao Ming, now back in the front row, thought to himself in surprise, "I was too talkative. This gluttonous guy would have given it his all without me saying a word. But does he usually not use his full strength?"

Although Xiao Lin's speed dropped sharply in the second half of the race, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

They jumped from being at the bottom of the group to second place.
