Chapter 739: Chapter 324: Identity Exposed! Ray Saint’s Compensation!_2
And it was such an outrageous event.
However, what was even more outrageous was that, this time, what was slowly reeled in was not the previous Goldscale Mandarin Fish, but an octopus!
Yes, a freaking octopus!
Although it wasn’t one of those colossal giants, this Commander Level Water Stinger Octopus was the size of a millstone, even with its tentacles curled up. Each tentacle, if stretched out, was three to four meters long.
How could this thing appear in the Heart of Water?
Alright, perhaps it appeared during the recent floods, but how on earth could it be caught by a hook without any bait?
Are you kidding me?
It was true that the fishing rod he gave the little brat was indeed a high-quality all-purpose product, but could the hook for catching octopuses be the same as that for other fish?
But seeing the Water Stinger Octopus swung around on the fishing rod before precisely landing in the fish bucket and getting stunned, it was clearly no hoax.
This time, it wasn’t just Su Ping; even the others who noticed the commotion looked over. Even Xu Li stopped speaking and watched this little fellow.
The child himself, however, seemed completely unconcerned and hummed, “Didn’t I say it’s not hard to fish for this thing?”
Everyone gave the child a peculiar look. Not hard to fish for? Where did he get the idea that it wasn’t hard?
But at this point, it had to be said, everyone’s attention was drawn to this bizarre fishing competition.
Su Ping experienced pressure for the first time after becoming a Beast Tamer!
Even though this pressure didn’t come from battle or Cultivation, but from fishing—an activity he had never even dreamed of—he had to admit this kid was the first rival he truly considered a threat.
I acknowledge you!
Su Ping immediately became serious.
The Sea Core Spirit Turtle ’Turtle,’ which had always been on the shore of the Heart of Water as the Water Element mascot of the Heart of Myriad Spirits, also made a GRUNTING noise, as if cheering Su Ping on.
Just then, the fishing float flashed. Su Ping’s spirits lifted. Without needing any special technique, he yanked hard. His own strength, amplified by the fishing rod, pulled it out of the water in one go.
An Elite Level Devilhead Eel.
Its value was mediocre, but it was better than nothing.
Su Ping slowly exhaled and glanced at the youngster beside him.
Whether this little rascal truly has some trick up his sleeve or is just incredibly lucky, I won’t admit defeat!
At this moment, few people were still fishing on the platform inside the Heart of Water. Clearly, those who came to fish here weren’t short on money. They stood around the contestants, watching this bizarre competition.
However, the main attraction clearly wasn’t Su Ping, but the rosy-cheeked, fair-skinned child beside him.
Indeed, in less than an hour, never mind the huge fish bucket—or rather, fish tank—from before. Fish tanks of that size had been filled to the brim three times over!
The Pet Beasts inside ranged from Commander Level at the highest to Ordinary Level at the lowest. The terrifying quantity, nearly a hundred of them, left not only the onlookers but also Su Ping utterly dumbfounded.
He glanced at the little brat multiple times.
Could this little brat have a cheat too? It’s just that my cheat is for Cultivating Pet Beasts, while this little brat’s is for fishing? Or could it be that there’s a Talented Ability in this world like an ’Innate Fishing Saint Physique’? Is this even scientific?
Su Ping glanced at his own still-not-full fish bucket and finally put down his fishing rod.
“You win!”
The child glanced at the clearly vexed Su Ping before satisfactorily putting away his fishing rod, “Well? Now do you understand that there’s always someone better out there?”
Su Ping looked at the child. Before he could speak, a voice came from behind him, “Boss, I’m so sorry. I don’t know how Little Fish got here. My apologies for the trouble he’s caused.”
Sure enough, when Su Ping turned his head, Lu Heng was standing behind them, an anxious expression on his face as he spoke.
But clearly, with so many people around, Su Ping couldn’t say much. He just shook his head, “No problem.”
“Hey, are you going to keep your word? You’ll honor the bet, right?” The child, whom Lu Heng called Little Fish, was already interjecting impatiently.
“Little Fish, don’t make trouble!” Lu Heng said hurriedly, but Su Ping waved his hand.
“It’s fine. I accept my loss. I don’t know how you did it, but go on, what do you want me to agree to? However, if I agree, you also have to tell me how you caught so many fish.”
Su Ping was baffled. If there wasn’t some logical explanation, Su Ping would even suspect Lu Heng had been secretly putting fish on the little brat’s hook underwater. Otherwise, how could he have caught so many fish in such a short time?
The child finally grinned, his mischievous plan successful. His large front teeth and eyes sparkled as he looked at Su Ping, “I heard you came up with a virtual game headset called the Heart of Dreams, can you give me an extra one?”
