Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

The crafting time for a level nine mage badge is also short, and Xu Jiawei stayed with her grandmaster for quite a long time.

"Jiawei, you've reached the ninth level of magic in such a short time. You're much better than your teacher. It took your teacher a full 20 years to reach the ninth level after becoming my disciple. I've never heard of anyone with your kind of talent."

"It's all thanks to Teacher Mo Feng's excellent teaching," Xu Jiawei said with a smile.

The Grandmaster changed the subject, "I heard that the Alchemist Association has opened a new level. After hearing about it, our Mage Association is also discussing opening a new level. Since you players arrived, the whole world has been injected with new vitality and is developing in a positive direction. After all, a world without new vitality will only face destruction." The Grandmaster said with a smile.

Xu Jiawei's expression also turned serious, and she asked with some doubt, "Grandmaster, do people on the continent know that the Dark God is about to appear?"

She was very curious as to why, when facing the bishop and the avatar of the Dark God, only the Mushroom God came to help. Didn't the Mushroom God's messenger ask the natives of the continent for help?

It seems as if the impending destruction of the mainland has nothing to do with these people.

"Those in higher positions all know that the divine messengers came to ask for help, but these people are only concerned with fighting for power and profit. Even though it was a matter of life and death, they were wary of each other, and not a single one went. Perhaps they have lost faith in us." The Grandmaster was extremely distressed.

Since that incident, none of the divine messengers have come to see them again.

It's not just a struggle between guilds, but even between different countries, city-states, and royal families.

All avenues for advancement are monopolized by nobles, leaving commoners without a single high-level combatant. These nobles are only concerned with vying for power and profit, turning a blind eye to the world's crises. The current state of affairs is utterly rotten.

Perhaps eliminating all the nobles would be the best solution, the grandmaster thought angrily. Unfortunately, it was impossible, because all those with fighting power in this world were nobles, and everything was monopolized.

The Mage Association wants to help resolve the crisis, but the Warrior Association is eyeing the Mage Association's top position, so the Mage Association can only remain inactive. The Alchemist Association has provided the Divine Envoy with some potions, but that's all they can do.

Xu Jiawei never expected that even at this point, these people would still be thinking about infighting. Did they only think about uniting when the Dark God crawled out? This is utterly hopeless.

No wonder Mushroom God has such a world-weary and pessimistic expression, only interacting with the players. Anyone would feel world-weary in that situation.

Mushroom God must have been utterly disappointed, which is why he hasn't made any major moves, at most just helping Xu Jiawei.

Although these people were still immersed in their peaceful struggle for power, Xu Jiawei still said, "I know where Mushroom God is. If you have figured it out, you can contact me. Now is not the time for infighting."

Even these outsiders know how to save the world, but these natives are thinking about fighting amongst themselves. Aren't they afraid of dragging everyone down with them?

This is probably why the survival system pulls people from outer space.

"We understand this very well, but we don't know when these confused people will stop fighting amongst themselves."

The associations are relatively easy to manage. The main reason is the power struggle between nations. The confrontation between the two associations is essentially a struggle between the noble groups behind the associations and between nations. As long as the nobles reach an agreement, the associations will naturally become peaceful.

Xu Jiawei thought to herself, "To put it bluntly, the nobles consume all the resources and do nothing; they're a bunch of pests."

It seems that the indigenous people won't be able to gather together anytime soon, but she can ask Grace for help. I wonder what Grace is thinking.

However, based on her cooperative attitude, she believed that Grace supported the faction against the Dark God and was taking active action.

Xu Jiawei thought to herself, an hour had passed, and her magician badge was finally finished. Now she was also a ranked ninth-level archmage.

Once her identities as a level nine archmage and a level nine alchemist are revealed, she will receive respect wherever she goes. Perhaps she can organize her supporters and take action herself to cultivate her own power.

This matter requires careful consideration. Although her current status is already quite prestigious, she is still alone. She can discuss it with the authorities when she gets back.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for achieving both Level 9 Alchemist and Level 9 Mage status. The player is now the only player on the continent to have achieved dual Level 9 professions. Gain 10000000 experience points and the title: Twin Stars.]

[Twin Stars: After obtaining the title, the player's Spirit Power increases by 20%.]

Xu Jiawei was stunned. She was the only person on the continent to reach the level of level nine in both cultivation. How was that possible? Did everyone on the continent cultivate only one level?

However, she did receive a lot of experience points. Her leveling speed, which had stalled after leaving the foggy area, soared again, reaching level 70 directly. Xu Jiawei gasped in surprise. She hadn't even finished her level 60 leveling quest yet, and now she was already level 70. It seemed she would have to find some time to complete the quest.

Xu Jiawei returned to her boat and found the three of them still arguing, but they had changed the subject. Xu Jiawei pretended not to hear and went straight back to her room.

She turned on her communicator and contacted Grace. Mo Feng was also there this time. Seeing that it was Xu Jiawei calling, Grace answered the call immediately.

Grace stared at the two badges on Xu Jiawei's chest and couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect you to grow so fast, reaching the point where you can graduate."

My apprentice, whom I've only had for less than three months.

Even Mo Feng couldn't help but sigh, "I misjudged you back then. I never expected your talent to be so terrifying. Perhaps you will soon completely surpass us. We look forward to your future achievements."

"Teacher Mofeng, Teacher Grace..." She didn't want to part ways, but it sounded like she was saying goodbye.

"Don't be so sad. It's not like we'll never see each other again. Mo Feng is still contacting his teacher, isn't he? Graduating from the apprenticeship isn't the end of the world." Grace chuckled.

Xu Jiawei relaxed considerably and said, "Teacher Grace, I've become a level nine pharmacist. What was it you wanted to say earlier?"

Grace's smile widened even more, leaving Mo Feng speechless.

"It was a good thing to tell you before. Now that you've become a level nine alchemist and mage, you can take our place in carrying out our professional activities."

Xu Jiawei was stunned. Had she been promoted, going from a participant to an executor?

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you have obtained the Instructor profession qualification. Each time you complete a lesson, you can request one item from the player. The higher the player's profession level, the rarer the item. If you don't request an item, you will randomly receive an item of your current level upon leaving. If the item's level is low, you will receive another one. (Learning skills, of course, requires payment!)]
