Under the guidance of Senior Brother Que Yang, Edward still went his own way, never cultivated, and spent all his days in the academy.

When Ancient Deacon learned of Edward's behavior, he also sighed endlessly. He even considered in his heart whether to have Edward return to the sect and be assigned other tasks next year.

Although Edward did things wholeheartedly, the matter of seizing the magic stones of the beginner disciples was truly contrary to the core of the Sect.

Acting in such a way surely has no future. Originally, Gu Deacon still thought that perhaps Edward could maintain the cultivation speed of the first layer of the Justice Magic. Then in the future, if he broke through the ninth layer of the Justice Magic and reached a new level, wouldn't he be able to become a core direct disciple!

After Que Yang's persuasion, Gu Deacon also heard about it.

Unfortunately, when the magic stones were distributed in the second month, they were all collected by Edward again under the pretext of guidance fees.

This made Gu Deacon unable to tolerate it any longer. Immediately, he summoned the excited Edward.

How could Edward not be excited? The five hundred magic stones needed for the second layer of the Justice Magic had been gathered. Immediately, he used the five hundred magic stones to simplify the second layer of the Justice Magic.

After the simplification, it was necessary to read the second-layer book of the Justice Magic five hundred times.

The second layer of the Justice Magic is even more abstruse and difficult to understand, but the number of words is not as many as the first layer. If Edward concentrated on reading, let alone five days, he could break through the second layer in three days.

"Gu Deacon, you are looking for me?" Edward asked.

Gu Deacon repeated the words that Que Yang had warned him.

"So that's how it is. Gu Deacon, you are right. I'll go back and seclude myself to study for a few days!" Edward didn't refuse and agreed with a sudden realization.

Gu Deacon nodded in satisfaction: "You are teachable!"

As soon as Edward returned, he told the people under him that he needed to seclude himself to break through, and then began to read frantically.

Ancient Deacon returned to his room and was still not at ease. He sent someone to inquire about Edward's actions. When he learned that Edward had been studying hard continuously for two days without slackening for a minute, he immediately sighed and said: "Perhaps he is from the countryside. Although he has outstanding talent, he doesn't understand the core of the Justice Magic. Now, after my reminder, he immediately strives to make progress!" After saying that, Gu Deacon felt at ease.

However, Edward actually only studied for three days and started to slack off again. Indeed, within three days, the Justice Magic in Edward's body soared more than twice, breaking through to the fullness of the second layer of the Justice Magic. He was only one step away from reaching the third layer, on the same level as Senior Brother Que Yang.

You should know that the inner sect disciple Que Yang, who is under Gu Deacon's management, has been cultivating for more than forty years. He has been cultivating for forty years. It's just because of cultivation that he looks young! Now, he is only at the fullness of the third layer of the Justice Magic.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

In the third month, Edward collected the guidance fee again. The news spread very quickly and both Que Yang and Gu Deacon received the news.

Que Yang didn't say much. He frowned and just said, "A rotten wood cannot be carved! When I break through, I can't let him ruin my people."

Edward, however, received more than four hundred magic stones for the third time. The smile on his face was about to stiffen.

Just in the third month, he now has five hundred magic stones again. The first three layers of the Justice Magic are at the same level. The magic stones required for Edward to cultivate the second and third layers of the Justice Magic are the same, both five hundred magic stones.

In the third month, Edward happily used the collected magic stones to simplify the third layer of the Justice Magic.

The third layer of the Justice Magic has even fewer words than the second layer. However, Edward needs to read the third layer of the Justice Magic eight hundred times to break through.

However, if he reads for 24 hours a day, it won't take more than three days, which Edward can still accept.

However, before Edward had a chance to read, Gu Deacon called him over.

"Edward!" Ancient Deacon called his name. Apparently, he was already somewhat angry in his heart. "Why did you still collect magic stones from those outer sect disciples under you? Do you know? This is the first time such a thing has happened in our Justice Magic Sect where a steward collects magic stones from outer sect disciples. It might be common in other sects, but in our Justice Magic Sect, this is unimaginable!"

Edward said to Gu Deacon with a smile, "Gu Deacon, I do things openly and with justice. I spend time guiding their cultivation every month, and collecting one magic stone as the guidance fee, I have a clear conscience!"

Gu Deacon's face was gloomy and said, "Release the Justice Magic within you. If you haven't improved in these three months, then I think you need to change tasks. This task here is not suitable for you."

When Edward heard this, he laughed. He had expected Gu Deacon's reaction long ago. It's hard to prove whether a person has done bad things elsewhere, but in the Justice Magic Sect, if a person's cultivation of Justice Magic stagnates or progresses slowly, then there's a high probability that he has done unjust things! With evil thoughts in mind.

"OK!" Edward smiled slightly, and the Justice Magic in his body erupted.

Gu Deacon felt the surging Justice Magic on Edward. Although it was far inferior to his, it could be said to be like a firefly compared to the bright moon.

Gu Deacon was extremely shocked in his heart. Feeling the Justice Magic on Edward, it was absolutely genuine.

Gu Deacon opened and closed his mouth, feeling that he couldn't say anything. He had received the news that Edward had spent no more than five days reading. He was either eating in the cafeteria or mingling in various classrooms and dormitories to guide disciples.

Just like this, in three months, Edward forcefully broke through to the fullness of the second layer of the Justice Magic. If he had worked hard in these three months, wouldn't he be able to break through the third or even the fourth layer?

Thinking of this, Gu Deacon mistakenly thought that Edward had extraordinary talent. Immediately, he said earnestly, "Edward, your talent is extremely good. The matter of managing the students should go with the flow. The main thing is that your own study and learning are of the utmost importance!"

"Gu Deacon, you're right. I wonder if Gu Deacon still wants me to change a task?" Edward didn't respond but instead smiled and changed the topic.

"No. Edward, your cultivation hasn't fallen behind, and you've even managed people very well. In these three months, you've enabled more than fifty trainees to enter the outer sect! Where can we find such an inner sect disciple like you?" Gu Deacon shook his head. Let alone anything else, Edward has done his job as the steward with all his heart and soul.

"Then thank you very much, Gu Deacon. I hope you will be more accommodating in the future." Edward cupped his hands.

"Sure, sure. No matter what you do, remember that your cultivation level is the most important. Don't waste your talent!" Gu Deacon was very optimistic about Edward's talent.

Even though Edward is 18 years old, reaching the fullness of the second layer of the Justice Magic at the age of 18 is already extremely talented! Even if recommended to the elders now, they would consider whether to take him as a disciple.

"Yes! Thank you for your advice, Gu Deacon. I'll go back and read immediately!" Edward wasn't lying. He really planned to go back and read for a few days, at least to cultivate the Justice Magic to the fullness of the third layer.
