RING-DING-DING-DING!
The morning school bell chimed across the sunny, five-hundred-acre Central Interplanetary Campus on Planet Canglan!
Thanks to the newly opened [Ten-Planet Wormhole Sky-Tunnel] and the ten half-mile-long [Gu Family Express Star-Trains], fifty million elementary and middle school children from all ten Neighbor Worlds had officially enrolled in the [Gu Family Interplanetary Public School System]. Every morning at seven-thirty, the free Student Express trains picked up children from Stations #1 through #10, served them hot soy milk and steamed buns in the dining cars.
Delivered them to shared classrooms and athletic fields in under twenty minutes!
However, when the ten o’clock morning recess bell rang on the first day of interplanetary school, the main athletic field immediately ran into a hilarious cultural traffic jam.
Because the ten Neighbor Worlds had been isolated from each other for centuries under five very different cultivation cultures, the children had brought wildly different recess toys in their backpacks!
Over on the eastern grass pitch, two thousand farm kids from Worlds #8 and #9 (the Twin Lantern Worlds) had brought friendly, miniature knee-high skeleton marionettes that cured necromancer Ye Ming had carved for them to hold jump-ropes. This Accidentally startled the younger seven-year-old herb-gardening girls from Worlds #4 and #5, who hid behind their giant medicinal cabbage leaves and squeaked!
