Everyone Practices Martial Arts: I Can Simplify Everything - Chapter 17

Chapter 17: Simplified! Screwing Makes Me Stronger?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At night, the subway was bustling with people. Lu Xiao took the subway to the factory.

After finding the location, he flipped through the Nail Fist.

Ding! Grade B martial art, Nail Fist, detected. Requires 30 Simplified Points.

Can be simplified to screwing.

Would you like to simplify it?

The system’s words entered Lu Xiao’s ears.

“Damn, System, you’re quite considerate!”

“Simplify!”

Ding! Simplification successful!

The effect of simplification is that every screw you do will increase your combat strength. The higher the level of the robot, the higher the improvement of your combat strength!

Unexpectedly, when Lu Xiao was about to do the screws, the Nail Fist was simplified to screwing.

It was just that there was no comment system. Otherwise, he would definitely give a five-star rating.

At this moment, an advertisement for the martial arts equipment factory was suddenly played on the subway television.

A passerby saw this and said disdainfully to his child, “Do you see that? If you don’t study hard, you’ll be stuck in the factory forever.”

When the young child heard this, he shook his head desperately and shouted, “I don’t want to work in a factory. I want to be a Martial Artist!”

Hearing this, many people on the subway frowned at them.

With this kind of biased education, it’s not healthy for children to develop.

But because he didn’t want to cause trouble, Lu Xiao chose to ignore it.

But it didn’t take long.

Suddenly another message came from the ad.

“We are a professional martial arts equipment factory. We have hundreds of Martial Artists working together to create exquisite and affordable sparring robots…”

After saying that, the man’s face turned green.

There were even Martial Artists in the martial arts equipment factory. Perhaps his child could not even enter the factory.

His previous words were like a slap to the face.

“These days… there are really all kinds of parents.”

Someone feigned casualness.

His voice was not loud, but it was just loud enough for the passerby to hear.

Therefore, when he reached the station, he quickly pulled the child down the subway without looking back.

Lu Xiao did not think much of it.

In his eyes, working in the factory was also making money decently.

Salary in exchange for labor. How could there be any shame?

Respect was mutual.

Soon, he got off the subway and went to the factory door to get his work pass.

With the help of the old workers, Lu Xiao learned about the basic work here.

The word “screwing” might seem simple.

But in fact, from the name of the factory, it could be seen that the robots produced in the factory were specially prepared for Martial Artists.

Schools and martial arts clubs would specifically order robots from factories.

Then, they used a special method to engrave martial arts onto the robot so that the user could cultivate with it.

Ordinary families did not have the financial resources to buy a sparring robot alone.

And there was no need for that.

When they needed it, they could just spend some money to go to the martial arts club to cultivate.

Lu Xiao had seen it before in school, but he had only interacted with it a few times and did not know much about it.

This was a cultivation method that was very popular among Martial Artists other than actual combat.

Depending on rank and strength, the sparring robots were divided into iron, bronze, silver, and gold. Further up were platinum and diamond.

No tools were allowed, as they would damage the robot’s structure.

Therefore, he had to use his bare hands to drive the screws in. The higher the level of the training robot, the more strength and precision it required.

If he was not careful, the robot would be damaged and become defective.

On the other hand, the lower the level of the robot, the less likely it was to be damaged. It was not as complicated as high-level robots.

That was one of the reasons sparring robots were expensive.

This time, a batch of bronze and three batches of iron sparring robots were transported.

As a result, they were short-handed and hired a new group of people.

“I could start work right away.”

After understanding it, Lu Xiao could not wait to start doing the screws and test the effects of the Nail Fist after the system simplified it.

However, the old worker shook his head and smiled.

He had seen many young people like Lu Xiao. Usually, he could not even finish a screw.

He would be so tired that he would lie on the ground.

If he endured the entire night, he would not be seen tomorrow.

He must be lying on the bed aching all over and couldn’t even get out of bed.

In addition, there was a shortage of hands recently.

He did not want Lu Xiao to run away the next morning after working for the entire night.

A few days ago, a group of young men had run over, laughing.

They were complaining about how unchallengeable it was to do screws. They were going to become Martial Artists in the future!

They did not take the simple-sounding job of screwing seriously at all.

But after the real torture, the few of them left the factory with ashen faces before they had even finished punching a single screw.

They found various reasons to resign the next day and did not return to the factory.

Just thinking about it made the old worker sigh.

Young people nowadays were really becoming less and less hardworking.

If they couldn’t even overcome the difficulty of doing a screw, how could they be Martial Artists?

“You don’t look old, right?”

“Yeah.”

Lu Xiao nodded.

“Then do the iron robot’s screws. You don’t have enough experience yet. If you damage them, your salary won’t be enough to pay for them.”

“That’s right. Young people have to take things one step at a time. Don’t think about reaching the heavens in a single bound.”

“Hahaha, not many young people like you are willing to come.”

“Being young is capital, but you can’t get the hang of it yet.”

“I heard that the new batch of bronze robots is not easy to do. Recently, the difficulty caused by the research and development department has increased. This money is not easy to earn. Sigh…”

After the teacher’s kind reminder, the other workers echoed.

How could an ordinary person who was not a Martial Artist damage a screw? It was just an excuse to take care of Lu Xiao.

The rest of the workers basically had the same mentality as the old worker.

Everyone had been a rookie once. In addition, Lu Xiao was very polite, unlike the few who came a few days ago.

Therefore, they would take care of him whenever they could.

And it was true.

It was already very good for an ordinary person to be able to do an iron screw when they first joined. Other than experience, bronze robots required physical strength and stamina.

Lu Xiao also understood that he had to eat one mouthful at a time. It would not be too late to challenge above iron after familiarizing himself with the job.

“Thank you, everyone. Then I’ll start with iron robots.”

Without rejecting their kindness, Lu Xiao followed the old worker to the iron robot.

Seeing that the screw was the size of two fists, he had to drive it in for nearly five inches to complete the task.

As for those above iron robots, it was even more difficult, but he could not touch it for the time being.

“Remember to save some strength. Don’t fill it up in one go.”

“Otherwise, you might hurt yourself.”

“Got it. Thank you, Senior.”

After the old worker gave his instructions, he strode away and followed a few older colleagues to conquer the more difficult bronze training robot.

He looked at the iron screw in front of him.

After reading the work manual carefully, Lu Xiao understood its simple mechanism.

Then he began to use the Nail Fist.
