[Heat Cannon] [Freezing Mecha] [Mechanical Armor] [Battleship Fleet] Lin Yuan looked at the system’s faint understanding of mechanical power and clicked his tongue. “What a shallow understanding.

Basic Mechanization

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After Lin Yuan beat Pei Xi up in the afternoon, the video of the fight was posted on the campus website of Qingshan Diyi Middle School, and it caused a heated response.

In just a few hours, there were thousands of comments.

The number of comments was increasing, and the number of views was soaring.

Pei Xi and Lin Yuan were famous people in Diyi Middle School, and everyone knew about them.

One was a genius from an aristocratic family, while the other was a martial arts weirdo.

One was gentle and elegant, while the other was sunny and handsome.

Unfortunately, after this video was exposed, gentle and elegant might be put in quotation marks.

In the video, Pei Xi became angry out of embarrassment and took the initiative to use his spirit energy to attack Lin Yuan.

What was even funnier was that he was defeated by Lin Yuan instead.

Some of the students anonymously left comments on the campus website, mocking Pei Xi for not being a martial artist with virtue and embarrassing the disciples of aristocratic families.

Other than that, there was another thing that everyone was very interested in, and that was Lin Yuan's mechanical method.

"What kind of spirit seed is Lin Yuan's? Isn't he fire-type spirit seed?"

"I've checked. Although there's only faint silver-gray spirit energy, I should be able to determine that it's a mechanical-type spirit seed."

"What kind of spirit seed is a mechanical-type spirit seed?"

"Then why does Lin Yuan insist on cultivating fire-type spirit seed? Why doesn't he cultivate mechanical-type spirit seed?"

"Who knows? He's a weirdo. Anyway, Pei Xi has lost a lot of respect this time."

...

There was a sentence or two about the silver-gray mechanical-type spirit seed recorded in the textbook.

However, it was not in the scope of the liberal arts exam. As long as one had the intention, it was not difficult to find out the different types of the mechanical-type.

Lin Yuan turned off the campus website and looked at the messages on his phone.

Many friends who were on good terms with him came to inquire about Lin Yuan's injury.

After replying to them one by one, in the small chat group of Wu Di, Fang Zixin, and the others, Fang Zixin excitedly brought a piece of good news.

"Pei Xi is grounded!"

Wu Di immediately replied, "Ah? What's the situation?"

Among the aristocratic families in Qingshan City, the Fang family and the Pei family were equally powerful.

They had been rivals for many years, so they knew each other better.

Pei Xi had lost a lot of respect.

Fang Zixin heard that after Pei Xi returned home, the head of the Pei family flew into a rage and grounded Pei Xi for half a year.

At the same time, he made Pei Xi focus on cultivation and prepare for the challenge in half a year.

With Pei Xi's strength as a level three martial artist, it would not be a big problem for him to get into the top five martial arts academies.

However, if he wanted to shine in the top five martial arts academies, he definitely would not be able to do so with his current strength.

While the few of them were chatting, Lin Yuan took out two basic mechanical skills from his drawer.

He was preparing to cultivate for two hours before going to bed.

Generally speaking, when he was cultivating spirit skills, it was equivalent to cultivating his spirit energy in a disguised form. However, it was not as effective as cultivating spirit energy specifically.

He had found these two spirit skills on the Tianshui Martial Arts Website, so they were not expensive.

One was called "Basic Mechanization", and the other was called "Mechanical Crossbow".

The requirement of the spirit skill of "Mechanical Crossbow" was a total of 100 spirit energy. Lin Yuan had not yet reached this threshold, so he put it aside.

The other book was more important. "Basic Mechanization" not only contained the teaching of basic spirit skills, but also many basic theories about mechanical-type, which benefited Lin Yuan a lot.

When he had not come into contact with these before, Lin Yuan had purely thought that mechanical-type should be related to steel, iron, and machinery.

It was similar to the armed mecha warriors.

In fact, this understanding was a little narrow.

"Machine" and "machinery" were two different concepts.

The core of the basic theory found in "Basic Mechanization" was that "Everything can be mechanized".

In the basic theory of "Mechanical-type Martial Artist", if one cultivated it to the extreme, he could be completely mechanized with bare hands.

He could even create an enchanted Gatling with his bare hands!

At the moment, Lin Yuan could only dissolve the iron and condense it back into a basic shape.

Complex machines often had a precise spirit energy structure.

Basic steel also had a structure.

"Let's give it a try."

"Phew..."

Lin Yuan took a deep breath and placed an ordinary iron bar on his left hand. The mechanical-type spirit seed was instantly activated.

Just like during the day, Lin Yuan controlled spirit energy to enter the iron and quickly used the basic structure of the iron to decompose it.

At this stage, Lin Yuan could only obtain mechanical power from it.

The iron floated in the air and was instantly decomposed.

"Phew..."

This step was not difficult.

Lin Yuan controlled the mechanical power in the air to condense together, gradually condensing into an iron sword in the air. Then, it was decomposed and condensed again, condensing into an iron spear...

"Simple form like this is not a problem."

"But how can the elasticity mentioned in the book be achieved?"

Lin Yuan had a headache.

At this moment, basic form change could be achieved by Lin Yuan on the second day after he learned "Basic Mechanization".

However, Lin Yuan could not do the next step, which was to create the elasticity of the mechanical power.

Taking Lin Yuan's mechanized iron fist as an example, what Lin Yuan could do at this moment was to fix its basic form.

Lin Yuan could not change the form of the glove, which meant he could not move it.

However, if he followed the elasticity described in "Basic Mechanization", the mechanized glove would change according to the changes of his hand, freely changing its form.

Even if Lin Yuan had an iron glove, he could still freely fight with a weapon in his hand.

"F*ck, why didn't say it clearly?"

"Is it my problem or is it an iron problem?"

Lin Yuan scratched his head, feeling a little confused.

This was where books were inferior to martial arts teachers.

Some things could only be solved by self-learning, and it might waste a lot of time.

"Would it be better to use spirit iron?"

"Post it and ask."

Lin Yuan got up and sat in front of the computer, logging into the Tianshui Martial Arts Website.

He kept typing on the keyboard and posted a post, offering a reward of 200 points.

If he had accumulated enough points, they could be exchanged for some cultivation resources on the Tianshui Martial Arts Website.

Lin Yuan hit the "Enter" key.

"What's the difference between ordinary iron and spirit iron? Will there be any difference in elasticity?"

Lin Yuan muttered, "There should be a blacksmith who will answer this question."

Spirit iron was a type of ore. It was divided into grades one to nine. The higher the grade, the more precious and stronger it was.

If it were not for the fact that spirit iron was not cheap, Lin Yuan would have bought two pieces to try it out.

When blacksmiths forged weapons, they often used spirit iron. According to what Lin Yuan knew, there were quite a number of blacksmiths active on the Tianshui Martial Arts Website.

"Awoo..."

Lin Yuan yawned and looked at the time. It was getting late.

At this moment, his group of martial artists was far from being able to use cultivation as a substitute for sleep.

...

The next day, when the east was turning bright and the sun was just beginning to shine, Lin Yuan woke up early to do his daily cultivation in the morning.

The plan for the day should start early in the morning.

The sun rose in the east. At the beginning of the day, the spirit energy in the city was the most majestic.

When Lin Yuan came to the courtyard, he could not help but smile.

"Yo, the sun has risen from the west?"
