How to set EditText with only bottom line

I wanted to create plain EditText(default android editext with no L shaped edges). However in my android studio, every time I create an EditText element, a L shaped EditText get created rather than a plain editText with no side edges. Can anyone tell me what the problem?enter image description here

Please note: I just want remove the San Seriff at the ends and keep the rest of the line. Making background null or transparent removes the whole line and this is where I am stuck.

    <item android:bottom="1dp"
        android:left="-2dp"
        android:right="-2dp"
        android:top="-2dp">
        <shape android:shape="rectangle" >
            <stroke
