Han Li was full of confidence. He was confident that he must break through faster than Edward. Thinking of this, he immediately immersed himself in reading.

Edward didn't pay attention to Han Li. Anyway, in another five months, he would be able to gather a hundred thousand magic stones. By then, with a simplification, he could break through quickly.

So Edward started to practice those three spells, striving to practice them to perfection.

Another month passed, and Edward returned to the Kuzhu Peak in the Justice Magic Sect.

This time, the eldest senior brother didn't give Edward any spirit stones. Instead, he said with a smile, "Fifth Junior Brother, your fourth senior brother has broken through. The master is very happy. You'd better directly ask the master for the spirit stones!"

"Okay, Senior Brother!" Edward cupped his hands and followed the eldest senior brother into the master's room.

When the two of them came to the master's room, he was drinking tea at the moment, and there was also a copy of the Haoran Sutra beside him.

A whiff of tea fragrance got into the nose, and in an instant, Edward felt that his head became much clearer, and the whole person felt refreshed.

"Good tea!" Edward couldn't help but sigh.

"This is a thousand-year-old spiritual tea. It has the effects of improving comprehension, enhancing perception, and making one feel refreshed." Master Elder Wang was full of excitement when talking about the spiritual tea. "Later, you can take a small packet back and taste it."

"Thank you, Master!" Edward knew that this spiritual tea was extremely valuable when he saw the envious look in the eyes of the eldest senior brother Tang Qing.

"Come, you can choose any room nearby. In the future, when you come to Kuzhu Peak, you'll also have a place to stay." Elder Wang was greatly pleased when he saw Edward's polite manner.

"Thank you, Master!"

"This is your fourth senior brother!" Elder Wang said to a young man standing beside him.

"Hello, Fourth Senior Brother!" Edward quickly cupped his hands and greeted.

"You're also not bad! Fifth Junior Brother, I heard from the master that you have good talent. This Enlightenment Fruit can accelerate perception. Consider it as my gift to you!"

The fourth senior brother had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He was tall and slim, with the appearance of a heartbreaker.

"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother!" Edward said with a big smile after receiving it.

"Okay, Edward, how's your cultivation going recently? This is ten thousand spirit stones for you this month. If you have made significant progress, I'll give you another ten thousand this month!" Elder Wang waved his hand and asked.

"Master, Junior Brother has already reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra. I'm afraid it won't be long before you have to protect Junior Brother again during his breakthrough!" The words of the eldest senior brother Tang Qing stunned everyone present.

"At the peak of the ninth layer?" Elder Wang looked at Edward with a shocked expression and asked.

"Boom!" The Justice Magic Qi on Edward erupted. Although his Justice Magic Qi was the lowest in the entire place, everyone was still extremely shocked.

"Master, didn't you only take him as a disciple less than a year ago?" The fourth senior brother said with difficulty.

This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

Master Elder Wang was still stunned. He remembered that he had said that he wanted Edward to break through within ten years. As a result, in less than a year, or even just half a year, he had reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra, catching up with the fourth senior brother.

"That's right!" Elder Wang was somewhat shocked. What kind of monstrous disciple had he received? Ten thousand magic stones a month could only buy ordinary resources. But with that, he had still rapidly reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra?

"Good! Great!" For a moment, Elder Wang was somewhat incoherent. Anyone who received such a heaven-defying disciple would be confused.

"It just so happens that most of the resources needed for your fourth senior brother to break through to the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra are still here. For the ones that are still lacking, I'll go and buy them." Elder Wang was extremely excited and gave a bag to Edward.

As soon as Edward opened it, there were all jade boxes inside, all kinds of resources to assist in the breakthrough.

"You go back first and consolidate well. When you're ready, come again. By then, the resources I've prepared for you will be almost ready!" Elder Wang stroked his beard under his chin, extremely pleased. Fortunately, he went to Old Li's place to have a look. Unexpectedly, he brought back a monstrously talented disciple.

At the same time, Elder Wang was also extremely jealous of Elder Li. There were two monstrously talented disciples in an academy. He only chose the younger one, and directly let go of the other one. This was simply a waste. Fortunately, he took the person back.

"Thank you, Master!"

Edward was also in high spirits. He took the ten thousand magic stones and a pile of spiritual objects and left. He randomly found an unoccupied courtyard nearby and started to count them.

"These five types of spiritual herbs can all improve comprehension and enhance perception. There's also a small packet of spiritual tea. I don't know how much it's worth. Just smelling it makes one feel refreshed." Edward was very satisfied and put them away one by one.

"It's just that in this world, there are no storage bags. Only storage bracelets and storage rings exist. Only some elders, their disciples, and some stewards have them. The cheapest storage ring costs more than a hundred thousand magic stones."

Edward was helpless. The Justice Magic Sect was not good at refining storage rings. These were all purchased from other weapon-refining sects through the chamber of commerce, and the prices were a bit higher.

Fortunately, Edward himself knew how to refine. It was just that there was no ground fire. After Edward bought the materials, he could only use a nearby volcano to open an unstable refining room and used the unstable ground fire to refine a dull-looking storage bag with a space of ten cubic meters inside.

"If I had known that storage rings were so hard to come by, I would have simplified the refining method of storage rings. The refining of this storage bag was something I casually simplified when choosing spells in the Sutra Depository before." Edward shook his head. Touching this dull-looking storage bag, he began to consider whether to sell it at a low price.

After Edward returned, the master, the eldest senior brother, and the fourth senior brother hadn't left.

"Tang Qing, the fourth disciple, both of you will start additional training from tomorrow. Especially Tang Qing, what did you say back then? As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to surpass those proud sons of heaven! I believed it! That's why I took you as my disciple!" Elder Wang used Edward as an example to make the two of them work harder.

"Master! It's not that we don't work hard. It's really that Edward is too monstrous!" The two of them both had long faces and said.

"Nonsense. Do you know Elder Li? He also took in a disciple named Han Li. Now he has also reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra. No, my disciple can't be surpassed by Old Li. I'll go and buy enough breakthrough resources for him right now!"

Elder Wang quickly rushed to the sect's resource exchange place to purchase a batch of resources, but it wasn't enough. He immediately went down the mountain and found several chambers of commerce.

Two months after Edward returned to the Justice Magic Academy, Edward had just gathered a hundred thousand magic stones and simplified the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra. "Reading the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra ten thousand times."

Immediately after, he received a message from Senior Brother Que Yang.

"Senior Brother Edward, Senior Brother Han Li has broken through. He has broken through to the tenth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra!" Que Yang didn't dare to call himself a senior brother anymore. The strong were respected. He directly demoted himself to a junior brother. "I really envy you two. At first, I was still jealous. Now I don't feel anything anymore!"

Que Yang was depressed. He was still at the fourth layer of the Justice Magic Sutra, while Edward and Han Li had directly left him far behind. He couldn't even see their taillights.

"Junior Brother Que Yang, it doesn't matter. You'll get used to it slowly!"

Edward's consolation was like adding fuel to the fire. If he couldn't beat Edward, he would have jumped up and fought with him desperately.

"Senior Brother Edward is right, but it's better not to say such things in the future." Que Yang rolled his eyes and said.
