I'm the High Martial Anti-Overwork King, and I Shatter Capitalists with One Punch

“Clock out on time today, take a paid bathroom break tomorrow, and break through while lying down the day after. Now that's real cultivation!”

In his previous life, Shi Yi was a forty-year-old, balding programmer. After working overtime for 72 hours straight, he died suddenly and transmigrated to a modern city of advanced martial arts, where he awakened the Anti-Grind System. The more he slacks off, the more explosively his combat power grows! His company is a crooked martial arts conglomerate that pays wages in Blood Qi Pills and calls overtime a “blessing.” But he refuses to play by the rules:

Taking a paid bathroom break = breaking through in seclusion (the restroom stall is a secret realm outside of time and space)

Clocking out on time = surging cultivation (he can run almost as fast as teleportation)

His coworkers competing to outwork each other = automatically absorbing their power (You work hard, I'll get stronger!)

When he discovers that his boss is an evil cultivator capitalist who sucks his employees' vital energy to stay alive, the protagonist flips the table:

“Working 996? Take a punch infused with the spirit of labor law!”

“Squeezing us over KPIs? Behold my Paid Leave Domain!”

“In this life, anyone who dares make me work overtime will be dead by the seventh day!”
