Capítulo 18: The first lesson is unique!
During the weekend.
After Chase's reminder, the masters immediately rushed to revise their teaching plans.
They didn't even bother to cook, opting to eat in the cafeteria when hungry.
This left Chase particularly disappointed, as he had hoped to improve his meals by tagging along with the masters.
Since the start of the semester, to build students' trust in the cafeteria, Chase had been eating there alongside them.
Although the cafeteria wasn't bad, with fresh ingredients and reasonable prices, it did make a profit.
Despite the income from over 1.2 million dollars in tuition fees, expenses were higher than expected.
Moreover, Chase was constantly thinking about new specialties in the system store, making him very focused on making money.
But after enjoying the full benefits of the Godly Chef's Blessing and eating the masters' dishes for two months, Chase's taste had become quite refined.
So this week was particularly painful for Chase, who lost at least two pounds.
Now, with his weekend plan to improve his meals falling through, Chase was even more frustrated.
But there was no choice; the students' future was more important.
For the sake of the students, he had to endure as their principal.

Monday!
New Star Arts College officially started classes.
Fresh from a shower, Roy Wang returned to his dorm with several breakfasts in hand.
He woke up his still-sleeping roommates, "Hey guys, it's almost time for class. Get up and eat breakfast..."
"Thanks, Dad, for bringing breakfast!"
"I'll transfer the money to you later..."
"Did you go for a run?"
The father-son dynamics in the boys' dorm were quite chaotic. Today you're the dad, tomorrow you might be the son—completely confusing.
Roy laughed and nodded, "If you run three laps around the track every day for fifteen days, you can earn two extra credits each month!"
"My academic grades will probably be average, so I need to earn as many extra credits as possible to avoid failing at the end of the term!"
Roy felt a bit frustrated about this. He was genuinely interested in culinary arts, which is why he applied to New Star Arts College.
But he hadn't expected that even in culinary school, he couldn't escape academic subjects like language, English, and politics.
Fortunately, his major didn't require advanced math.
He had heard that advanced math was the toughest subject in college, so not having to take it was a blessing.
Still, why did a future chef need to study language and politics? Or English?
Would this make him a better chef?
Some things couldn't be resisted, so they had to be accepted.
And running for extra credits was a rule at New Star Arts College.
From 7:00 to 7:30 AM every day, teachers would be waiting on the track.
Students who ran three laps could swipe their campus cards to check in.
If they did this fifteen times in a month, they could earn two extra credits.
This rule made students who disliked academic subjects very happy.
Chase had established this rule during the summer.
He hoped his students would develop good health and fitness habits.
During his own college days, Chase had gone through a tough time due to family issues and had been very lethargic.
His sporty roommate had started taking him for runs.
Initially, Chase found running extremely painful.
But after half a month, there was a moment when he suddenly felt the joy of exercise...
Later, running wasn't enough, so Chase began going to the gym.
Now, although Chase didn't have a six-pack, he was strong, with a straight posture and the ability to do fifty pull-ups in one go—definitely an outstanding ordinary person.
Fitness made Chase more energetic and lively, and he looked particularly spirited.
All these benefits made Chase a strong advocate for fitness.
For most people, their peak physical condition was in high school.
From college onwards, their fitness levels generally declined.
Chase couldn't control other schools, but he hoped his students would develop good fitness habits and maintain healthy bodies.
Moreover, for a chef, a healthy body was essential.
That's why Chase established this rule.
It might be considered a misuse of his principal's power for personal reasons, but compared to the many arbitrary rules at other schools, encouraging fitness was certainly not wrong.
If this rule proved effective, Chase planned to build a large gym on campus in the future.
But that was a matter for later.

Roy Wang, who was studying Shandong cuisine, had brought several breakfasts to his dormitory.

Now, the students of New Star Arts College were attending their first culinary class of the semester.
Roy Wang was studying Shandong cuisine, the most prominent of the eight major cuisines.
There were many students in this major, with a total of two classes combining seventy-eight students.
The classroom was large enough to accommodate both classes for theoretical lessons, but practical lessons were divided due to the limited number of forty stoves in the training room.
The students were looking forward to their first culinary class, as most of them had a genuine interest in cooking.
Even the students who were there just to pass the time had developed some interest in cooking, thanks to the Godly Chef's Blessing, though not very high.
When the class bell rang, Chef Xavier entered the classroom with a small cart loaded with various pre-prepared ingredients, attracting the students' curious gazes.
---
After understanding the differences in teaching students compared to apprentices, Chef Xavier had revised his approach.
Unlike apprentices who were aware of his reputation and were eager to learn cooking to improve their lives, these students didn't know who he was and came from more affluent backgrounds.
For them, cooking was just one of many career choices, and they wouldn't spend years honing basic skills.
Initially, this disappointed Chef Xavier, as he wondered if people in this era could really dedicate themselves to culinary arts.
But soon, he was comforted by the prosperity of modern times, realizing that the efforts of past generations had paid off with a flourishing society.
Regardless, Chef Xavier adapted his teaching plan after discussions with other masters.
The first class wouldn't focus on cooking techniques.
Instead, the teachers aimed to show the students what true culinary art was, hoping to inspire a genuine love for cooking through the allure of delicious food.
