Hail the King

Chapter 962: Chambord’s Education System (Part One)

Of course, the internal system referred to Chambord’s education system.

Based on the king’s belief from his previous life, all Chambordians believed that the children had to get the necessary education regardless of how poor their families were. With this foundation, Chambord had established a universal education system where all the children of Chambordians could enter the cultivation, magic, and various other academies. In addition, the children who showed more talent would be enrolled in Chambord’s Civil and Military University.

As time passed by, everything made sense.

Chambord’s strength grew, the wealth of the nation increased, various beliefs were turned into policies and implemented, and the fruits of basic education gradually showed.

In the beginning, many people didn’t understand the king. But as time passed, they all devoted themselves to it. The importance that the officials of Chambord placed on education far surpassed the officials in other empires; they were almost ahead by one full era.

In just two years, Chambord completed its education system. Everything was stabilized and placed in the system nicely, and the structure was set from primary education to advanced education to professional education.

Right now, Chambord had 40 elementary schools, 20 middle schools, high schools, professional colleges, military academies, and four universities. With these schools in place, they continuously created all types of talents for the nation. In the recent 1,000 years of human history, no kingdom or empire had as many great talents as Chambord had in these two years. Also, there was no place on this continent except for Chambord that valued so many people with poor family backgrounds and offered them opportunities to rise.

For many people in the Zenit Empire, if they were willing to work hard, they could come to this magical kingdom and obtain a skillset that could allow them to survive on this continent ruled by the law of the jungle. Learning was no longer the privilege of the nobles.

Also, under Fei’s insistence, Chambord didn’t keep to themselves. Instead, they opened the doors to other forces and accepted international students.

In the beginning, only the nobles and wealthy merchants of other affiliated kingdoms of Zenit sent their kids to Chambord to study; they saw this as a way to show the King of Chambord their friendliness and didn’t hope to get much from it.

However, when they saw that their kids who were average in their eyes become ‘geniuses’ in different fields, they realized that they had gotten much more than they had ever imagined.

Later on, almost all the nobles inside the Zenit Empire tried to send their kids to Chambord for school, and they saw it as a great honor. Gradually, Chambord’s schools became the prime incubator of talents in the empire.

In the end, the nobles and merchants in other empires heard of this and sent their kids to study in Chambord from thousands of kilometers away.

Chambord was never kind toward rich people; the tuition for the schools in Chambord were exceptionally high.

However, Chambord’s attitude toward poor people was completely different. As long as they demonstrated a strong desire to learn, they could study there for free.

‘King Scholarship’, ‘Bast Scholarship’, ‘Brook Scholarship’, ‘Drogba Scholarship’, ‘Cultivation Scholarship’, ‘Magic Scholarship’, ‘Potion Maker Scholarship’, ‘Tailor Jenny Scholarship’, ‘Military Scholarship’, ‘Soros Outstanding Merchant Talent Scholarship’…

The famous people of Chambord and the merchant groups sponsored all kinds of scholarships. As long as someone was talented, regardless of their family backgrounds, they could get many awards and become rich just like that.

Out of all the scholarships, the King Scholarship was the supreme honor that many students desired.

Chapter 962: Chambord’s Education System (Part Two)

This scholarship was personally sponsored by the King of Chambord, Imperial Martial Saint of Zenit, and Human Emperor of the North. There was only one spot per semester per school. On top of getting a lot of physical resources and wealth, the recipients could meet His Majesty and receive personalized advice.

The effect that Chambord’s open education system had in the region was immeasurable.

This was why Fei was cunning.

In many cases, the terrifying power of education wasn’t only in the development of talent and the supply of fresh blood into the nation; it was also the subtle art of ‘brainwashing’.

About one year ago, a course named ‘Political Thought’ was incorporated into the curriculum in every single school in Chambord. This theory course seemed useless, but it promoted some strange points of views and perspectives.

It was heard that the king had written all the course material.

As a result, the young nobles and talented young people were subtly ‘brainwashed’ by their idol, the King of Chambord. These people from the various affiliated kingdoms, nearby empires, and merchant groups admired heroes, and they were all young and accepted new points of views and ideas much more easily. The king successfully influenced them while they were still malleable.

After they finished their studies at Chambord and went back to their forces, they would subconsciously use what Fei taught them and treat those principles as their own, becoming the natural allies of Chambord.

Right now, Chambord City was like a radiation source, emitting energy to the surroundings and silently changing many people in the region. It was creating a unique cultural circle in the Northern Region of Azeroth.

Perhaps some people would be displeased and resist later on, but it would be too late then.

All of this was the fruit of Fei’s meticulous plan from two years ago.

About six days after the king came back to Chambord, he observed in secret and concluded this. Without a doubt, the king was very excited. It felt like an inexperienced gardener copied someone else’s success formula and achieved perfect, unexpected results, creating a garden that was beyond exceptional.

…

Fei had been back at Chambord City for almost a week.

He didn’t rush to the Capital of Anji to ask Akara and Cain about the progress in decoding the mysteries inside that sealed space. He knew that it was going to be a long project.

Although the two mad scientists were sharp and intelligent, the sealed space was the masterpiece of at last a godly-king-level master from the Mythical Era, and it was many levels beyond people’s current knowledge. Therefore, this project had to be taken slowly.

In the last seven days, Fei had been teaching the university students and soldiers of Chambord in the underground cave which was known as the [City of Heroes].

Due to the incident with the Anji Empire, the class that Fei taught was quite behind, so he had to make up the difference when he had time.

Right now, many military departments and training grounds were still in the maze-like city in the underground cave beside the school. However, the most confidential and secretive departments were already moved to Sky Castle that was much safer, and the [City of Heroes] gradually dropped in importance and became a lower-level confidential center.

Aside from teaching, Fei spent a lot of time on studying [Demon King’s Wisdom] and [Demon King’s Sword].

Of course, the king never stopped going into Diablo World to kill monsters and level up and training his spirit energy.

One day, Fei finally achieved something, and he laughed hysterically.

Then, he ordered a guard to summon the busy Military Leader Brook.
