High voltages in Elekit TU8600S

Do you mean here? Seems to be well connected.

That's safety Earth and looks fine - I'm talking about throughout the schematic (not familiar with this specific kit) where different components are connected (referenced) to ground, you need to make sure all those joints/connections are solid so you don't have any leakage. You should also have a connection from ground to your metal chassis, linking the board to your safety Earth. This connection is often part of your power supply.
 
I don't know if you can see the last pictures of my measurements with the new multimeter that I posted, but I decided to solder the whole amp again. I've just finished the main circuit board and these are the measurements I got (these are with the left 300B tube broken):
