    Ye Xiaoshu felt like he wasn't bound to a system, but rather to a shameless, smoking "reverse translator." Take that "Berserk Demonic Art" for example. Others would practice it with bloodshot eyes, wildly hacking and slashing, but when he practiced it, well, his heart rate dropped to 60, his blood pressure remained as steady as a dog's, and he could even put on band-aids while going berserk, and when he got tired, he could sit down and drink some goji berry tea—after all, the system had twisted this demonic art into a "calm + continuous health regeneration" mode, making it a Buddhist-style combat style in the cultivation world. And those self-harming techniques that sounded painful, like "severing fingers to increase strength" or "breaking through the heart to break through realms," all became fitness tips for him: cracking his fingers would increase agility, and coughing until his chest hurt would even give him the "Iron Lungs" passive. Last time he tested his strength in the gym, he just casually swung his arm, and the testing device embedded itself in the wall—honestly, he really just wanted to try out the newly unlocked "minor wrist strain = doubled strength" effect! Even more outrageous was the book "Blood Sacrifice Hacking Techniques," which originally required cutting one's wrists to bleed into hacking into a system. He changed it to "accidentally scraping your finger = automatically cracking the firewall." A while ago, when the US satellite signals were erratic, causing a huge uproar online, only Ye Xiaoshu stared blankly at his own cut fingertip: "That's it? Is that even newsworthy?" So, when a king-level spirit beast blocked his delivery box demanding to become his apprentice, when hackers from various countries waited for him to deliver meals with their computers, and when a powerful cultivator chased after him asking, "Can you teach a small class in Calm Berserk mode?", Ye Xiaoshu could only wave his hands repeatedly while clutching his helmet: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! I'm just a guy riding an electric scooter. The fact that I punched the testing device was due to its aging, and that I knocked out the spirit beast was purely because of the quality of the brick I used. As for the satellite… maybe the sunspots were dozing off?" Before he finished speaking, he seized an opportunity, twisted the handlebars, and the electric scooter "whooshed" away, leaving behind a group of powerful figures shouting in unison at his retreating figure: "Master! Leave your contact information before you go—!" Ye Xiaoshu didn't even turn his head, cursing that damn system eight hundred times in his mind: If I had known that being bound to a system would force me to become an internet celebrity, I would have definitely installed a nitrogen boost on my electric scooter!
