Daily Settlements: Surviving the Chaotic High-Martial World Until I Become a Saint

A hundred years after the Red Mist descended, countless grotesque mutant beasts burst out of it, evolving and devouring everything in their path. Modern weapons gradually became ineffective, and humanity was forced into one retreat after another, until the survivors were driven back into fortress cities. Martial arts became their only path to survival.

Lu Yuan transmigrates into this world and becomes a student in the ordinary class at Jiangcheng's top martial arts school. With a useless first-grade meridian and crushing debts, he spends every day serving as a human punching bag for the young masters in the gifted class to pay off the interest.

Then, at the moment he drops dead in the training ground, the [Daily Settlement Panel] activates before his eyes.

[Daily Settlement: Practiced punches fifty times, slacked off for ten minutes, took a beating for two hours. Toughness increased slightly.] [Rating: D-. Symbolic training, the kind where just showing up counts as a workout. Go ahead and slack off. Who could slack off better than you? Just keep your little mouth shut when you're getting beaten from now on, and stop whining.] [Reward: One standard unit of vital energy. Enough to help you catch your breath. Don't complain it's too little. If you think it's too little, then stop slacking off.]

With daily settlements, others painstakingly train for a year to gain a trace of vital energy, while he can sleep and still wake up to a guaranteed reward.

Sand-Breaking Fist, Marrow-Tempering Body Art, Thousand-Kilo Stance: the more he practices, the richer the rewards.

When he slays mutant beasts above his level, guards the border, and ventures into the Red Mist, his ratings soar and his rewards reach their maximum.

From a human punching bag for martial arts school sparring sessions to a Martial Saint at the pinnacle of humanity's strength,

Lu Yuan hovers above the deepest reaches of the Red Mist, holding the Deification Pill he just received from his settlement.

He smiles down at the countless grotesque beasts below, each as massive as a mountain.

"I'm in a hurry. Come at me all at once."
