Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Her repeated practice made her lose track of time, and before she knew it, night had fallen. Mo Feng sent her back home, telling her to practice on her own.

Xu Jiawei could only reluctantly leave and return to her small boat. Once back on the boat, she instantly felt the temperature rise several degrees.

The temperature difference is huge, just like going from an air-conditioned room to the hot outdoors.

This further strengthened Xu Jiawei's determination to learn how to create barriers. The natural disaster had already begun and already felt like summer, not to mention that the intensity of the disaster would double in the last week. Xu Jiawei even wondered if the temperature would rise to 100 degrees Celsius on the last day and cause a mass extinction.

Perhaps she's being too kind; it's not impossible that the temperature could be raised to 200 degrees.

Xu Jiawei felt even more pressured and began practicing without sleep or rest. Whenever she was exhausted, she would drink energy potions, and whenever she was depleted of mana, she would drink mana potions.

However, there's nothing that can be done when you're completely exhausted; you can only take a short nap.

By the second day, Xu Jiawei was finally able to draw several strokes in a row.

Unbeknownst to Xu Jiawei, the progress bars for her other spells were also rapidly increasing, probably due to a significant improvement in the precision of her magic control, which in turn increased her proficiency with other spells.

For three whole days, Xu Jiawei was immersed in practice. During these days, the temperature rose by two or three degrees every day, and today it even reached over 38 degrees. Xu Jiawei turned on the air conditioner early.

Finally, today, Xu Jiawei finished the drawing, and the drawing on the paper shimmered with a halo of light.

Now that we've successfully practiced on paper, we should practice on the ground.

After all, the ground is much larger than drawing on paper, so the energy consumption would naturally be several times greater. However, she couldn't practice on her own boat; what if it exploded? After all, the paper she used spontaneously combusted when she failed, and she didn't want her boat to spontaneously combust as well.

So he contacted Mofeng again.

"Teacher, I'm in dire need of help. I want to practice drawing barriers. Could you find me a place?" Xu Jiawei pleaded, her hands clasped together.

Mo Feng thought about it for a while and realized that practicing was indeed quite dangerous, as it could easily cause a fire or explosion.

"Alright, come to my practice room to practice." After saying that, he reopened the teleportation channel.

Xu Jiawei didn't stand on ceremony and directly took over his practice room. Sure enough, the great mage's practice room was great, with fireproof and explosion-proof mechanisms.

Drawing on the ground was even more energy-consuming, so Xu Jiawei could only concentrate on drawing.

After dozens of failures, the patterns on the ground finally glowed white and made a buzzing sound.

At this moment, blood flowed from Xu Jiawei's nose again. Xu Jiawei wiped it away without caring. She had been experiencing frequent nosebleeds during her practice these past few days, and drinking chrysanthemum tea did not help.

Xu Jiawei was so worried that she thought she had some incurable disease that she ate a lot of healing mushrooms, but it didn't work. Apart from nosebleeds, she didn't have any other problems, so Xu Jiawei stopped caring about it.

Let it flow a little, it won't kill you anyway.

Rather than worrying about getting a nosebleed, Xu Jiawei looked at the barrier array beneath her feet with delight, and placed the energy stone in a specific position with trembling hands.

Soon the magic circle hummed, and an invisible light shield slowly expanded until it enveloped the entire room, continuing to expand.

Mo Feng, who was outside, happened to see the light shield and nodded in satisfaction.

It seems he misjudged her; Xu Jiawei's talent was much stronger than he had imagined. Even he himself had taken two weeks to learn it, while Xu Jiawei had learned it in just a few days.

Mo Feng was very satisfied. He then waved his hand, and Xu Jiawei's fragile light shield immediately disappeared. Mo Feng walked directly into the practice room.

Looking at Xu Jiawei wiping away her nosebleed, Xu Jiawei felt helpless. Why couldn't the nosebleed stop this time?

"Are you really alright? I hope nothing's wrong with your health. I happen to have some equipment for testing your body, why don't you go get checked?" Mo Feng was still a little worried when he saw Xu Jiawei wiping her nosebleed as soon as he entered the room.

Xu Jiawei nodded and said, "Let's take the test then. I also want to know what's wrong with me."

As he spoke, Mo Feng led Xu Jiawei to a small house, where he looked at the status displayed before him.

No problem? How could there be no problem? If there were no problem, how could she keep having nosebleeds?

How could he explain this to his sister Grace? No, he had to heal him quickly. Mo Feng searched through his magic book for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was going on.

So Mo Feng chose to ask for help, but of course he didn't ask Grace for help. After all, he had done such a thing to his sister's apprentice, and he dared not let his sister know. So he dialed his master's communicator.

"What a rare guest! You brat, what brings you to my side?" the white-haired old man said sarcastically.

"Master, I've taken on a disciple, but now he's having some health problems. I don't know what's wrong." Mo Feng didn't pay attention to the white-haired old man's tone; his voice was full of worry and anxiety.

"Oh, let her come out, let me see." It was that genius; even the white-haired old man became serious, which was rare for him.

Mo Feng called Xu Jiawei over, and the white-haired old man immediately pointed at Mo Feng's nose and started cursing when he saw Xu Jiawei's state.

"You brat! Can't you even see that your disciple's mental energy has been overexerted? What kind of master are you? This is a state that only occurs when learning transcendental magic. What did you do?"

Mo Feng was somewhat surprised and immediately retorted, "That's impossible. Xu Jiawei has already learned it. If she really overdid it, how could she possibly have learned it! And in less than five days at that."

The white-haired old man suddenly seemed stunned and asked, "What are you teaching?"

Mo Feng frowned, but still answered honestly, "Barrier magic circle? What's wrong? I learned it in two weeks back then, and I didn't encounter this situation." Mo Feng was somewhat puzzled.

The white-haired old man suddenly became very agitated. "You brat, the barrier magic circle is a level seven magic. You were already a level six magician when you learned it, while Jiawei is only level four!"

"How can you be a teacher? You dare to teach even level seven magic. Aren't you afraid of killing your apprentice?"

Mo Feng frowned: "Really? I thought it was level five back then, but it was level six?"

Seeing Mo Feng's state, the white-haired old man became even angrier, but his eyes burned even more as he looked at Xu Jiawei, who was still wiping her nosebleed.

"Little Jiawei, your teacher is unreliable. Do you want your grandmaster to personally teach you?"

Xu Jiawei refused outright: "No need, Grandmaster. I am very grateful to my teacher for teaching me how to create barriers."

The white-haired old man said with some regret, "Alright then, try to use this kind of super-level magic less often in the future, and you won't bleed."

Xu Jiawei nodded quickly.

At this moment, Mo Feng looked at Xu Jiawei with great surprise. He did not expect Xu Jiawei to have such good talent. Although her attributes were strange, her talent was enough to overshadow this.
