"The ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra's cultivation level is really too slow to do tasks!" Edward was helpless. Although the corresponding tasks of the ninth layer of cultivation level were mostly below five thousand magic stones, most of them were tasks such as delivering letters or guarding a certain area.
There were also most of the tasks of slaying demons and eliminating evil spirits that were group tasks, or tasks of assisting the strong to hunt demons.
"It's better to directly hunt demonic beasts. Then, by selling them to any business association, I can also get a lot of magic stones."
Edward was really thinking about the feasibility of this matter. After returning to Academy No. 27, he was still absent-mindedly thinking about it. After all, although his physical strength was strong, it was not reliable.
The chubby boy who was once punished by Edward to run laps came over and shouted: "Is Senior Brother Edward here?"
"Little chubby boy, are you looking for me?" Edward looked at this chubby boy whom he punished to run laps in confusion and asked.
"My father said to let me come and apologize to you." The little chubby boy said somewhat awkwardly.
"Then what crime do you have?" Edward laughed as soon as he heard this.
"I shouldn't have come with Han Li to talk about you. From now on, I, the little chubby boy, am Senior Brother Edward's follower. Whatever you say goes!" The little chubby boy flatteringly took out a bag of magic stones and handed it to Edward.
"Alright! Ten thousand magic stones! Little chubby boy, not bad! I still don't know your full name?" Edward said in astonishment.
You should know that he had a master, and he was only given ten thousand magic stones a month!
You should know that Elder Li has spent millions of magic stones on Han Li!
So the little chubby boy was qualified for him to know the name!
"Senior Brother Edward, my name is Zhang Xiaofu!" The little chubby boy said with a flattering smile all over his face.
"Good! From now on, you are my follower. By the way, how is your cultivation of the Justice Magic Sutra going?" Edward asked.
"It has reached the great accomplishment of the first layer. It's just a little short of being perfect. Once it's perfect, I can enter the inner sect!" Zhang Xiaofu said excitedly.
Edward nodded. Although this Zhang Xiaofu didn't seem to fit the Justice Magic Sutra, but who let this guy's family be rich? Even by smashing magic stones, he could reach the perfection of the first layer of the Justice Magic Sutra.
"Do more righteous things. When doing things, be generous and have a broad mindset. This way, the cultivation speed will increase!" Edward stated his insights once.
"Yes, what Senior Brother Edward said is right. Actually, I don't lack the resources needed for reading and comprehension. It's just that I have a problem. I get sleepy as soon as I read." Zhang Xiaofu hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Slap!" A slap landed on Zhang Xiaofu's head. "Are you still sleepy now?"
"No." Zhang Xiaofu touched the bump on his head, and tears flowed out.

"I'll accept these magic stones. From now on, I'll protect you in the academy." Edward said with a smile.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Edward!" Zhang Xiaofu was very excited and retreated.
In fact, his, Zhang Xiaofu's, aptitude wasn't good. However, he grew up consuming a lot of resources since childhood. During the test, he was not bad. Later, Han Li was accepted as a disciple by Elder Li.
As soon as Zhang Xiaofu's father saw this, he immediately asked him to go and fawn over Han Li. However, Han Li failed to show off but was instead outshone by Edward. Moreover, even if Zhang Xiaofu sent magic stones, Han Li never accepted them.
Han Li even used an elder's tone to teach him not to do such despicable things.
Talking about this incident almost pissed off Zhang Xiaofu's father. But this was the only disciple of Elder Li, so he could only tell Zhang Xiaofu not to offend him.
Shortly after, it was rumored that Edward became a disciple of Elder Wang. Zhang Xiaofu's father immediately took out tens of thousands of magic stones for Zhang Xiaofu and told him to spend them freely. He must build a good relationship with Edward.
Others might not know about Zhang Xiaofu, but Edward knew very well that he was someone who was obsessed with money. Zhang Xiaofu presented ten thousand magic stones on the spot, making Edward promise to protect him in the academy.
"This Zhang Xiaofu's family is quite wealthy!" Edward weighed the magic stones. Now he had twenty thousand magic stones in his hand. He still needed eighty thousand to break through to the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra.
Edward wasn't in a hurry. Anyway, it was only a few months. Once he reached the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra, Edward could also go and receive higher-level tasks.
Time passed slowly. Three months passed. Edward occasionally took on a small task. The rest of the time, he stayed in the academy.
He did manage to obtain fifty thousand magic stones. Other than that, there wasn't much else. However, his physical strength improved quite a lot.
At noon, with the bright sunlight, Steward Gu ran over again. He said to Edward, who was lying on a chair and being lazy, "Manager Edward, you still have time to sleep! Just received the news. Han Li has broken through! Now he is already at the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra!"
"Ah? So fast!" Edward asked in surprise.
"Yes! Now he is cultivating spells under the help of Elder Li, saying it's to consolidate his cultivation level. What a monstrous cultivation speed!" Steward Gu nodded and sighed, his eyes filled with jealousy.
"Yes! Han Li's talent is truly amazing!" Edward also felt deeply about it. He even spent money but was still caught up by him. There's simply no place to reason.
"Um, um? No, what are you sighing with me for? If you worked hard every day, you might have reached the tenth layer!" At first, Steward Gu agreed, but then he reacted and glared at Edward angrily.
"Steward Gu, didn't I tell you? Reading requires a feeling. It's not that you can read whenever you want." Edward said with a smile.
"Give up. I haven't had the feeling since I stopped reading. Could it be that I won't read forever?" Steward Gu got angry when it came to this. He didn't have the feeling for a month. He felt that the Justice Magic Sutra was rusty and there was no sign of breakthrough at all.
"Cough, Steward Gu, maybe this isn't suitable for you either. Why don't you go and ask Junior Brother Han Li what method he used and how he broke through so fast?" Edward coughed and said.
Steward Gu turned and left. This day couldn't be chatted happily. Besides Han Li's talent, he had a good elder. With several million magic stones spent, good grief, he could also break through!
And at this time, with the help of Elder Li, Han Li broke through to the peak of the ninth layer and was already at the same realm as Edward in terms of cultivation level.
"Master, I've broken through to the peak of the ninth layer!" Han Li's words made Elder Li extremely excited.
"Steward Gu, how is Edward's cultivation progress?" Elder Li asked.
As another genius in the academy, how could Elder Li not pay attention?
"Not bad. I think he has already reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra!" Steward Gu said.
"Good talent! He doesn't have as many resources as I do. Some resources can't even be bought with magic stones. Could it be that that guy Elder Wang has spent a lot?"
"Master, I will definitely break through to the tenth layer faster than him!" Han Li heard that his strength was already on par with Edward's, and a confident smile appeared on his face.
"Good! Good disciple, I'll buy you some resources now. Consolidate the Justice Magic Qi well. Wait for my return and we'll start the breakthrough!" Elder Li was extremely excited. Looking at the hardworking and serious Han Li, he immediately left the cave to purchase.
