"Hmm? Yang Meng lost again?"
At that moment, Lu Sheng also looked towards the area where Yang Meng and Mu Bing were battling, his face filled with astonishment.
Because of Yang Meng's defeat, Lu Sheng's battle did not attract much attention, everyone was drawn to Yang Meng's loss.
"Sigh, the gap between Martial Artists and the other two systems under level four is really too large. Even for me, without maxed Basic Heavy Equipment Maintenance, I might not be a match for Liu Huan."
Seeing this, Lu Sheng couldn't help but shake his head.
However, Lu Sheng didn't feel powerless; instead, he was filled with fighting spirit.
Yang Meng not being a match for Mu Bing doesn't mean he won't be in the future!
At least...
I can already defeat Liu Huan of the same level, can't I?
And this real combat raised my proficiency in Five Elements Fist by ten points.
Once my Qi Blood is enhanced, my cultivation technique and martial skill proficiency maxed out, and my secondary profession proficiency maxed, I might not be a match for Transcendents from the other two systems!
Yang Meng's defeat caused the students from the Martial Artist Camp in the Elite Class to look like withered eggplants, each one disheartened.
Not only Yang Meng, but several other strong students from the Martial Artist Camp were defeated by students from the other two systems.
Only a few Martial Artists won, perhaps because the Transcendents of the other two systems had not mastered Spiritual Power very well.
But that was not taken seriously by anyone. As for Lu Sheng's situation... naturally, it was ignored.
With the end of the real combat tests, the students from the Martial Artist Camp were ridiculed by the students from the other two systems once again, forcing Gao Feng to announce the dismissal feeling helpless.
After school, Lu Sheng headed straight to the repair workshop at Tianqi Heavy Industry. Although his proficiency in Basic Heavy Equipment Maintenance was maxed, he wouldn't pass up the chance to make money.
Li Mo lay on the chair nearby, watching Lu Sheng work earnestly. After pondering for a moment, he stood up and went to his office, took a book covered in oil from a high shelf, and handed it to Lu Sheng.
"This book contains basic information on Mechanical Prosthetics. You might want to study it in your spare time."
"You have a talent for mechanical repair. If possible, this could become your secondary profession in the future!"
Upon hearing Li Mo's words, Lu Sheng stopped his work and took the book. On its cover, it read "Basic Mechanical Prosthetic Maintenance."
After speaking, Li Mo returned to his chair and lay down again.
Lu Sheng put down his work and opened "Basic Mechanical Prosthetic Maintenance." As he read through it, he felt like he was entering a new world.
Previously, the Basic Heavy Equipment Maintenance taught by Li Mo could only be considered the basics; the knowledge in this book was much deeper.
The more Lu Sheng read, the more absorbed he became, forgetting about the time.
When Lu Sheng finished the entire book, a sentence popped up before his eyes.
[Ding, Basic Heavy Equipment Maintenance LV5 has upgraded to Basic Mechanical Prosthetic Maintenance LV3!]
"Hmm?"
Lu Sheng was initially stunned but quickly opened the system panel.
[Name: Lu Sheng]
[Profession: Martial Artist]
[Realm: Qi Blood Realm (38/100)]
[Longevity Posture: (57/100) LV2]
[Five Elements Fist: (45/100) LV1]
[Basic Mechanical Prosthetic Maintenance: (1/100) LV3]
"Skill... leveled up?"
"From mechanical equipment to mechanical prosthetics?"
Lu Sheng was somewhat surprised. At the same time, a vast number of memories, like when he first started learning mechanical repair, flooded his mind, as if he had studied mechanical prosthetics for years.
Lu Sheng quietly digested the memories in his mind. When he opened his eyes again, a sparkling light burst from them.
"After the skill upgrade, my proficiency in mechanics has increased, and I have mastered more specialized mechanical knowledge."
"Next, I just need to engage in more mechanical equipment and prosthetic work, and I can max out this skill. By then... with this skill, I will be more adept in facing Mechanical Transformers."
Lu Sheng was extremely excited.
He didn't want to give up this job, even if he couldn't become a Mechanical Transformer in the future. He could use this job as his secondary profession, earning more cultivation resources to pave his path in martial arts.
Moreover, even if he doesn't become a Mechanical Transformer, Martial Artists can increase their combat power through external prosthetics or weapons like the Electromagnetic Power Sword.
Just like the three flying swords controlled by Mu Bing, including the one with the Gravity Field, they all belonged to the category of mechanically transformed products.
Of course, the most important thing is making money.
Lu Sheng grinned, feeling delighted.
After the skill transformation, Lu Sheng continued working tirelessly, his efficiency even higher than when he maxed out Basic Heavy Equipment Maintenance.
Soon, he successfully repaired a piece of heavy mechanical equipment.
Li Mo, lying on the chair nearby, slightly opened his eyes and saw Lu Sheng's work efficiency, a smile appeared on his face.
"This kid indeed has a talent for mechanics. I haven't misjudged him."
After speaking, Li Mo was about to close his eyes for rest but suddenly sensed something and looked towards the workshop door.
A young man slowly walked through the door, covered in scars. His legs had been replaced by mechanical ones, which were in poor condition, with some parts emitting wisps of smoke.
As if they might fall apart at any moment.
Seeing the young man at the door, Li Mo frowned and swiftly walked to the young man's side, speaking solemnly, "Why are you in this condition again? I just repaired it recently. Why so soon..."
Saying that, Li Mo seemed to understand something, and a look of regret appeared on his face. He shook his head and said, "You shouldn't have gone to the black market to fight. You know that once you get in, you either come out alive, or... become a corpse."
The young man listened to Li Mo's words and laughed self-deprecatingly, "But if I don't go to the black market to fight, my life will stay the same. Choosing this path, if I want to get stronger, this is the only way."
Hearing the young man's words, Li Mo fell silent.
Li Mo had many side jobs. As a retired technician at Tianqi Heavy Industry, he was not just repairing heavy machinery; he often took private orders for mechanical prosthetic repairs.
The young man before him was a regular customer of Li Mo.
