Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

After the three of them finished arguing, none of them would admit defeat. They argued until they were panting. Xu Jiawei listened from the side and even took out her notebook to write down what they said. She would write down every insult they hurled at her, intending to memorize it so she wouldn't lose any more arguments.

When the group was exhausted from arguing, they saw Xu Jiawei's amused expression. Their faces twisted in disbelief. They were suffering so much, why was someone else so happy?

Mushroom God picked the person up and quickly brought them back to the ship.

Xu Jiawei: ......

It was noticeably more unsteady than when it arrived, definitely a deliberate act of revenge. If Xu Jiawei's stomach hadn't been empty, she would have vomited uncontrollably again.

Xu Jiawei gagged a few times, her head was spinning, and everything seemed to be spinning around her. It took her a long time to feel a little better.

She looked up and saw two semi-transparent clones pointing at her ship, commenting, "This aesthetic is truly worthy of the Mushroom God's successor. You can tell this style is related to the Mushroom God."

"Nonsense, how could such an ugly ship be my style? If I were to design it, it would never be this monotonous." Mushroom God was extremely dissatisfied with the ship.

"I know, your taste is ridiculously bad," Vulcan retorted from the side. After all, the mushroom ship did have some aesthetic appeal and was definitely not designed by the Mushroom God.

Xu Jiawei walked over, looked at the group, and said, "Gentlemen, please find your own places to stay. My room is on the top floor, and the other rooms were basically arranged by Mushroom God. You can ask Mushroom God for directions."

"It took you so long to recover, your physical condition isn't good." The God of Agriculture circled around Xu Jiawei, seemingly sizing her up.

Taking this opportunity, Xu Jiawei asked her question, "Seniors, I have a question for you. Do you know how to get a pet to break through level 70?"

The system left players to explore on their own, which left Xu Jiawei somewhat confused.

The God of Agriculture seemed to be deep in thought, and said, "You should ask the Mushroom God about this; as a non-human being, he should know."

"God of Agriculture, are you looking for a beating? How can I be compared to those low-level pets? We're not even the same species!" Mushroom God's beady eyes were practically spitting fire.

"Who said you had anything to do with those pet beasts? Isn't it because you've lived longer and know more? How dare you make such assumptions about me? Let's duel!"

"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, you old geezer! You dare to curse me? Prepare to die!" The Mushroom God grabbed the God of Agriculture by the neck and shook him.

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Xu Jiawei could only hope that Vulcan could mediate.

Vulcan did not disappoint Xu Jiawei's expectations. He coughed lightly and said, "You two, stop fighting. Nongshen, I'm not trying to criticize you, but Mushroom Head is not very bright to begin with, and you're still provoking him. And Mushroom Head, Nongshen is so weak that he might kick the bucket at any time. If you used more force, you could have easily knocked him apart. You two are really no match for me in any way. I have to break up this fight."

Xu Jiawei: Is this supposed to be mediating a fight? It's practically adding fuel to the fire! No, it's selflessness, sacrificing oneself for righteousness!

As expected, the two, who were already at loggerheads, immediately turned their guns on Vulcan, making him scream in pain.

This is a different kind of mediation; just tell me if the two of them have made up or not.

After the Vulcan begged for mercy, the Mushroom God withdrew his hand and looked at Xu Jiawei, saying, "Regarding the breakthrough of pet beasts, I'm not quite sure if it's the same as mine. I'm different from them. I used to be just an ordinary mushroom, but thanks to the world's blessings, I gained sentience."

"When I was stuck at level 70, I drank the water from the Fountain of Life and broke through the level cap. At level 80, I broke through the cap by accumulating energy. At level 90, I broke through to godhood by fusing with a divine spark and became the first non-human god."

The Mushroom God slowly began to speak, and Xu Jiawei seemed to be deep in thought. "The Fountain of Life?"

As the Mushroom God explained, the Red Earthworm's level indeed changed.

[Level: 66 (Level cap 70. To break the cap, players should use the Fountain of Life or other methods.)]

There are other ways to solve this, but Xu Jiawei only knows about the Fountain of Life. So she asked, "Respected Mushroom God, may I ask what the Fountain of Life is? Where can I obtain it?"

The Mushroom God snorted: "That's it. The previous battle was ruined by that sealed brat."

The God of Agriculture was also somewhat distressed, saying, "The ingredients of the nutrient solution are also made from the Fountain of Life. Now that we don't have the Fountain of Life, we can't make new nutrient solutions, so you must find the nutrient solution we have arranged."

Vulcan looked at the two of them: "I told you to leave that thing to me for safekeeping, but now it's all gone."

"Old man, your secret chamber is so hot, it should have evaporated by now if it were in your treasure vault," the God of Agriculture retorted, not to be outdone.

So, relying on the Fountain of Life is not an option, Xu Jiawei sighed. The seeds are only missing nutrients to be planted, and then the God of Agriculture will take care of them.

Xu Jiawei wondered if she could use her mushroom talent to create replicas of what she had successfully cultivated. However, she felt that she couldn't do it now, but she could try again after she became a god.

Then she can plant these luxury goods anytime, anywhere, and she wants to give every level 89 person the opportunity to become a god.

Feeling really unwell today, Xu Jiawei went back to her room to rest, as she had to take the Magicians' Association exam tomorrow.

As for the three people who are still arguing, Xu Jiawei ignored them. Before going to bed, she even wondered if they would still be arguing the next morning.

At seven o'clock sharp, Xu Jiawei, who had only slept for three hours, was woken up by the alarm clock. She rubbed her temples, still feeling a little dizzy, and immediately drank a bottle of energy potion and stood up.

As Xu Jiawei expected, the three were still arguing. They had been arguing for so long, and their voices were still hoarse. Xu Jiawei bypassed the three ducks and immediately arrived at the Magicians' Association, finally getting away from the three ducks.

Arriving at the association and seeing the lively scene again, Xu Jiawei felt a pang of nostalgia.

The association was bustling with activity as many people came to take the level exams. Xu Jiawei registered for the Level 2 exam and found herself waiting in line for two hours. She wondered what had happened to attract so many people to take the exam.

However, Xu Jiawei soon found out the reason. Anyway, the magicians did not hide their conversations from others, so even though Xu Jiawei was sitting there, her voices could be heard clearly.

"Hey sis, why are there so many exams these days?"

"I heard there are some benefits involved, so everyone's rushing to take the exams. Even those who aren't confident are taking advantage of this time to give it a shot," a playful female voice said.

"That's great, I want some benefits too, but unfortunately it has nothing to do with us little magicians," another female voice said.

"Forget about it. I heard that you need to be at least level 5 to get this opportunity. We're only level 3, we're still far from it," the playful female voice said.

"Are all these people here to take the Level 5 exam?" another girl asked, glancing around.

"No, I heard that the higher the level, the more benefits there are, so everyone is just taking advantage of the opportunity to make a quick buck."
