When Qin Haohan regained consciousness, he found himself back at home.

Qin Haohan's family was not well-off. His parents left when he was thirteen, just as he started junior high school, and never returned.

Although they left him some money and a sixty-square-meter apartment, as a young person without a source of income, he would eventually run out of resources.

He dared not eat too well or buy expensive supplements, which repeatedly delayed his martial arts training, becoming a significant constraint.

He had originally planned to search for his parents once he had a better future, but now it seemed unlikely.

At this moment, the door opened, and Aunt Li from next door walked in.

"Xiaohan, you're awake. How did you fall off the city wall? The city guards found you and brought you back after checking your ID. You weren't thinking of something, were you?"

Aunt Li was a good old neighbor, and Qin Haohan quickly waved his hands. "Auntie, you misunderstood. I wasn't thinking of anything. I just went there to enjoy the wind and accidentally fell."

"That's good. You're a lucky kid. The city guards said many people have fallen from there, but you're the only one who survived."

After a few more words of advice, Aunt Li left. She didn't call a doctor, as doctors could make house calls these days.

After thanking and seeing Aunt Li off, Qin Haohan carefully examined his condition.

His arms and legs hurt, and it seemed he had a broken rib. However, bone injuries were not considered serious nowadays. People's physical fitness was generally strong, and the development of alchemy and medicine was highly advanced, making injuries minor issues.

As long as you had money, a fracture that would have required months of recovery in the past could now be healed in a few days.

But Qin Haohan didn't have much money, so he would have to rest for a while.

What Qin Haohan was most concerned about now was not his injuries but the thing that had caused him trouble.

He remembered a white light entering his mind, followed by a voice. But when he touched his head now, he felt no change.

"Where is that thing?"

He searched his body for a long time but found nothing unusual. Instead, the large movements aggravated his injuries, causing him to groan in pain.

"Beep... Detected host's physical injuries. Immediate treatment recommended. Scanning body condition..."

Qin Haohan was stunned. The voice came from within his mind, the same voice he had heard before.

"Who are you?"

"Scan complete. Three fractures. Initiating internal micro-surgery. Host, please pay 1,500 for the surgery."

"What kind of surgery?" Qin Haohan asked, somewhat panicked.

"Connecting to host's bank account... Connection successful. Deducting payment..."

Qin Haohan's phone beeped, indicating a deduction of 1,500.

Qin Haohan was immediately puzzled. How could the payment be deducted without entering a password or fingerprint?

"Surgery starting!"

Suddenly, intense pain surged through his body. Qin Haohan felt his injuries becoming more painful, indicating that the system was performing surgery on him.

He couldn't see any incisions or doctors, but the pain was real.

"Hey, shouldn't surgery involve anesthesia?"

"Robots don't need anesthesia." The system's response was brief and to the point.

"Who... Who is a robot? I'm a human being, with blood and flesh!"

"I will train you to be a robot. This is just the first step."

Qin Haohan wanted to argue, but the pain made it impossible for him to speak.

Sweating profusely, he endured for about ten minutes before the pain subsided.

"Surgery complete. Expected recovery in thirty minutes."

Qin Haohan was stunned for a moment, then moved his arms and legs. The pain was minimal and gradually disappearing.

"This is truly amazing. Even the best bone-healing pills today would take at least three days to work, but this was so quick."

Qin Haohan suddenly realized that this sudden robot training system was something extraordinary.

However, he knew very little about it and needed to learn more.

"Who are you?" Qin Haohan had mastered the communication method; he just needed to think the question.

"I am the robot training system, responsible for monitoring and evaluating your training. You can call me 'Kao.' I will train you to be an incredibly precise robot."

"Robot? Do I have to turn into metal?" Qin Haohan's understanding of robots was still from the time of the Gregorian calendar, when robots existed to perform tasks for humans.

But in the new era, with the resurgence of spiritual energy over the past five hundred years, humans began to pursue their limits and practice martial arts, and robot civilization had completely disappeared.

Moreover, he was a normal human being; how could he become a robot?

"Not a metal robot, but giving you some characteristics of a robot, such as precise calculation, rigorous logic, and the most efficient training methods... I can also perform simple micro-surgeries."

"Under my training, you will gain abilities beyond those of a normal human. This is a good thing."

"How did you come here? What do I need to pay?"

"Your mental willpower once reached its maximum, attracting me. You only need to pay money to maintain my operation. The higher your training level, the more wealth you will need."

Qin Haohan checked his bank account, which still had over a hundred thousand, all left by his parents. He wondered if it would be enough for the training.

"What are your goals now?" Kao asked.

"I want to do well in the final exams and get into the top high school. That's my only way out."

"Information received. Planning in progress..."

After a moment, the system completed its plan.

"Training plan complete. Time: one month. Goal: top of the school. Analyzing host's data..."

Qin Haohan's various data points were quickly listed, including academic performance, lung capacity, 100-meter speed, punching power, and mental willpower.

The other data points remained unchanged: academic performance 60, lung capacity 23, 100-meter speed 35, punching power 27. Only his mental willpower increased from 70 to 71.

According to Kao's explanation, this was due to the increase in his mental willpower, which had slightly improved his willpower.

Mental willpower was crucial for martial artists, often determining how far they could go.

"First step of training: improve your lung capacity and 100-meter speed. Please start running outside."

"Are you serious? I'm still injured."

"Your injuries will heal soon, and exercising while injured will also improve your mental willpower."

"But what if the exercise worsens my injuries?"

"I will monitor your condition and make the most reasonable arrangements based on your body. Your injuries won't worsen."

"You make it sound easy. If it gets worse, you'll perform surgery without anesthesia, and I'll be the one in pain. What if I refuse?"

Before Qin Haohan finished speaking, a blue electric current surged through his body!

"Ah!"

Qin Haohan screamed, his hair standing on end and turning into a spiky mess.

"If you refuse, you will receive an electric shock as punishment. This will prevent you from slacking off and also train your resistance to electricity, a skill that special agents should have."

Qin Haohan shivered, raising a finger to curse, but a puff of black smoke came out of his mouth, a result of the electric shock.

The curse turned into: "Kao... You're right, I'll go."

Due to his muffled voice, Kao didn't recognize his words and was fooled.

Thus, Qin Haohan, who had just fallen from a 100-meter city wall, with a spiky head, ran out of the house.
