Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Now it's truly impossible to tell who's who, even Xu Jiawei can't tell which are her real teammates.

The bug in the mirror maze is gone. The mirror image looks exactly like the original. Before, you could distinguish between the real and the fake by using the front and back sides, but that doesn't work anymore.

Furthermore, the mirror images will attack each other as a disguise to confuse people's vision. In short, the scene is extremely chaotic, a complete mess, a pure free-for-all.

Xu Jiawei's mind raced. To distinguish between the real and the fake, she needed to use light-based skills without harming her own body. That meant she could only use Light Purification. This was an excellent way to distinguish other people, except for Si Yunming.

Yes, that's right. Apart from Si Yunming, even if his true form came into contact with the purification of light, he would still be injured.

Therefore, it was impossible to tell for the time being. Xu Jiawei used the Light Purification to purify her teammates one by one. After all, Si Yunming was very strong and didn't need to be bothered. As for these Tang Monks, if she didn't act quickly, they would be in trouble.

As long as they showed signs of pain under the purification of light, Xu Jiawei would end their lives with a single stroke, giving them no room for explanation, just to save time.

Fortunately, no mistakes have occurred so far. If a mistake had occurred, they would have been unlucky.

The only problem is that Light Purification can't be used on multiple targets right now; it can only be used one at a time. We can try upgrading it again when we get more skill upgrade tickets.

After rescuing the group of Tang Sanzang, they hid inside the protective shield, trembling with fear.

"Captain, you're amazing! Without you, we would have been doomed here."

Xu Jiawei: Fortunately, this group of people are noobs, even the mirror image is noob, so it was easy to solve.

Now only a dozen or so Si Yunmings remain in the melee, and their postures and moves are exactly the same.

Xu Jiawei really can't tell the difference.

Just as he was hesitating, a Si Yunming ran over, his face covered in demonic runes, and shouted, "Use Purification on me!"

Xu Jiawei used it without thinking. Si Yunming's face showed pain, then the demonic markings on his face faded a bit. "Continue."

The rest of Si Yunming also ran over, their faces covered in demonic patterns, seemingly also begging Xu Jiawei to use purification, and the situation reached a stalemate.

"I am real, they are all fake. The first one who came here was just trying to fool you."

"I am the real one, everyone else is fake..."

Even among people who don't talk much, ten people together are still quite noisy, giving Xu Jiawei a headache.

"Stop. Since they all believe they are real, let's test them one by one." Xu Jiawei directly unleashed purification on one of the Si Yunmings. The Si Yunming's expression became increasingly painful, and the demonic markings on his face became fewer and fewer.

Xu Jiawei was extremely cold and ruthless until the demonic markings on Si Yunming's face disappeared, and his entire body vanished.

This one is fake.

Xu Jiawei unleashed her skill on another Si Yunming, and the other Si Yunmings no longer sat idly by and waited to die. Instead, they started fighting again, and the melee broke out once more. Even the first Si Yunming who ran over was caught in the crossfire.

She couldn't tell which one to purify anymore, so Xu Jiawei stopped purifying and sat aside to watch the show. She trusted Si Yunming; if the one that survived in the end was indeed the mirror image, then it could only mean that Si Yunming's strength was too weak, and there was nothing she could do.

That's how cold-blooded they are.

Even the group of Tang Sanzang monks commented, "Wow, that leap was beautiful!"

"That downward slash was so cool!"

"His pose is so cool!"

Xu Jiawei looked at the group of people who had stepped out of the protective shield and started watching the show, and said, "You guys should learn from this, don't just watch the excitement."

"Captain, I'll do whatever you say!" Gu Lin quickly chimed in.

"Captain, I admire you so much! I always have, and I admire you even more now. Your talent is simply unmatched." Seeing the few more people surrounding her, Xu Jiawei was a little smug from the praise.

It seems these people aren't so bad after all; at least they provided emotional value.

Xu Jiawei found these people much more agreeable; aside from being a bit naive, they were all good kids.

The battle between Si Yunming and his companions had reached a fever pitch, with every move aimed at killing the opponent.

Soon, the first casualty occurred. One Si Yunming was ambushed from behind by another Si Yunming, who pierced his heart. He lay on the ground, the ground stained crimson with blood.

Once there was a first one, there was a second one. The second person was someone who couldn't avoid a fatal blow during the fierce battle.

......

Soon, only Si Yunming remained standing in the entire arena, covered in blood, while a large number of Si Yunmings lay on the ground.

Xu Jiawei used a purifying light technique, and the demonic markings on Si Yunming's face disappeared. He then collapsed uncontrollably, losing consciousness.

Seeing Si Yunming lying unconscious on the ground, Xu Jiawei breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't disappeared; it was real.

As expected of Si Yunming, he survived a chaotic battle with more than a dozen identical versions of himself.

Xu Jiawei used Light Purification again, purifying and eliminating all the corpses on the ground. Looking at the still calm lake surface, her teammates had already hidden far away, afraid of being illuminated again and having a bunch of clones pop out.

Xu Jiawei then tried to use the Light Purification Spell on the lake surface. When the purification spell touched the lake surface, the originally calm lake surface instantly rippled, and the clear lake surface was replaced by dark lake water, resisting the purification spell.

In the end, the purification spell failed first, after all, the lake was very large and the entire lake was filled with a dark aura.

After the purification spell wore off, the lake returned to its calm state, becoming crystal clear, as if nothing had happened.

With Xu Jiawei's current abilities, she has absolutely no way to deal with this lake.

After carrying Si Yunming on her back, Xu Jiawei wanted to lead her teammates away slowly, but the lake seemed unwilling to let Xu Jiawei and her group go.

The lake seemed to come alive, opening its massive maw and unleashing a tremendous suction force. Xu Jiawei and the others were powerless to resist and were sucked into the lake.

In an instant, Xu Jiawei seemed to be shrouded in darkness, unable to see anything. The darkness, like leeches, desperately burrowed into Xu Jiawei's body, creating a huge conflict with the light energy within her.

Xu Jiawei involuntarily coughed up a mouthful of blood, then quickly used a purification spell to envelop her body, forming a cocoon of light to isolate the dark aura from the outside. If Xu Jiawei was in such a state, the others must be in even worse condition.

Meanwhile, the club presidents who were watching the match stood up, exclaiming, "Who chose such a dangerous location?!"

"President, this is a candidate chosen by the royal family. I didn't know it would be so dangerous. They told me the difficulty was low, but they lied to me!" The person dressed as if he was in charge was pale and almost knelt on the ground.

"Which royal family member! What's their name?!" The one speaking was the president of the Alchemist Association. He was furious. If all the geniuses in their team were to perish, it would be a huge loss for the Alchemist Association. It wouldn't be surprising if they faced a talent gap and declined altogether.

"It was Duke Is's eldest son who chose this place, President! It has nothing to do with me! It has nothing to do with me! Please spare me!"
