“Doctor, is this brain transplant really safe?”
“Relax. This brain has a 100% approval rating! Every single person who survived says it’s great!”
“Huh?”
“Ahem... Your classmates inject eight doses of qi-and-blood boosters every day! Their cultivation techniques have them in debt for a hundred years! Even in their dreams, they’re tempering their minds with ‘Ten Years of Martial Arts Exams, A Hundred Years of Mock Tests.’ What excuse do you have not to work hard?!”
Lu Yang looks at his dead-last grades at the martial arts high school, then thinks of the astronomical student loan debt he’s carrying.
“Let’s do it!”
Brain: [I knew the hardships of the world from an early age! Never did I expect that after a thousand years of planning and countless schemes, I would still lose to fate and be reborn in the body of an ant...]
Lu Yang: “???”
Brain: [The qi and blood of mortals at this electronics factory are indeed impure... So be it! To this Venerable, it’s nothing. Second-tier Qi-and-Blood Gu, form!]
As Lu Yang tightens screws on the assembly line, his body suddenly feels lighter and his qi and blood surge!
In one night, he tightens three times as many screws as everyone else!
Brain: [Hmph! As expected, these fools are ignorant. It’s just a minor martial skill. All I need is to sweep it with my divine soul, and even a world-shaking technique can be mastered instantly!]
Lu Yang looks at the martial skill he bought with borrowed money, and a sudden realization dawns on him!
The next moment, he masters the skill!
Years later, a sect’s holy son kneels in defeat, blood at the corner of his mouth, and roars in rage!
“I had my genes modified at one! I had demon bones transplanted at three! I train for 48 hours every day! My debt is enough to bankrupt the banks of an entire city! How can you possibly beat me?!”
Lu Yang and the brain speak together, their expressions disdainful.
[Because I’ve persevered for five hundred years!]
