Current evidence shows that Mars was habitable and had a lot of water for billions of years. It was only after their magnetosphere disappeared that their atmosphere got stripped away from solar winds. I could easily see complex forms of live adapting and surviving from that time. We also assume that the 'fungus' seen here has any genetic similarity to fungus on Earth. It could be quite different, only seeming similar because of convergent evolution[1].
