The redfin mullet worth 40,000 kronor was easily caught by the young man in front of him with unpredictable strength.

This speed of making money is really outrageous!

Even many villagers want to go fishing!

However, as mentioned before, catching fish of this exceptional quality is not an easy task.

First, you need a strong enough fishing rod, and then find bait that can attract them to bite the hook.

Finally, you have to be strong enough not to be dragged under by the fish in the water or to let it struggle to break free.

These few conditions alone are not something that ordinary people can achieve.

This is why fish of exceptional quality can be so expensive.

The other contestants naturally saw this scene as well.

"This must be a coincidence! This guy must just be lucky!"

"Everyone, don't panic, he's only 7 points away, we still have a chance to catch up!"

"That's right, come on everyone, we still have a chance!"

Cao Xing ignored them.

Instead, he walked over and picked up the pretty-looking light pink fish.

[Obtained: Redfin Fish (Blue)*1]

…

As the host said, this is a mullet.

Cao Xing looked at the attributes

【Rouge Fish (Blue)】

【Level: Level 9】

【Weight: 7.4 kg】

[Effect: When consumed for the first time, it can increase the hit rate by 3%]

(A fish with tender meat and a fresh aroma. It can be broken down into 7 pieces of mullet meat or sold whole.)

…

"It can actually increase the hit rate by 3%?"

"Good job guys, this mullet is a good quality blue fish!"

Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.

And then he caught the second fish.

Bron was not to be outdone.

A [Cichlid] about fifty to sixty centimeters long was pulled up by Braum again.

The host immediately announced: "Contestant No. 48, excellent quality, one cichlid, plus 2 points!"

The sea bream that Bloom caught was obviously bigger than the previous ones.

However, the rule of this competition is not to see who catches the bigger fish, but to see who catches more fish.

No matter how heavy the fish you catch is, you will be awarded points based on its quality.

However, within two minutes.

Cao Xing has caught another fish.

"Player No. 47, one high-quality snapper, 2 extra points!"

"Contestant No. 48, one high-quality snapper, 2 extra points!"

The host would shout it almost every two or three minutes.

While the contestants were still working hard to dig a hole in the ice, Cao Xing and Bron had already caught three or four fish in a row!

This fishing competition has become a performance show for the two of them.

If I say, one or two times is just a coincidence.

Now, this is pure skill and technique!

At this moment, the group of competitors who were chipping away at the ice had puzzled looks in their eyes.

"What's going on? Why are they catching fish so quickly?"

"Yes, this is fishing in moving waters. It's incredible that they can catch one fish in two or three minutes."

"I bet there must be something wrong with their bait! Otherwise they wouldn't have been able to catch fish so quickly!"

"Let's go find out what bait these two guys are using."

However, everyone looked at the person who spoke as if he were an idiot.

Even if everyone knows that there is something wrong with their bait, do you think they will speak out?

Moreover, because of Cao Xing and Braum, every time I hang the bait, I will deliberately cover it.

They couldn't even tell what bait was used.

Before long, fifteen minutes of the game had passed.

For a moment, all the contestants became anxious.

One of the Charr suddenly shouted, "I want to request off-field support!"

The host chuckled and said, "Sure, whatever you like."

The man immediately looked at the villagers watching nearby and said, "I need 10 strong villagers to help me dig an ice hole. Each of them will pay 100 crowns!"

Upon hearing the price, the villagers on the shore held their breath.

100 kronor is a lot of money.

The villagers excitedly said, "I'll do it, I'll do it!"

"And me!"

The tall Charles took a quick look and randomly selected 10 stronger villagers.

The 10 men quickly came onto the ice.

With their participation, the speed of digging the ice cave of this Charles has increased significantly!

Other contestants followed suit and began to use their money power to get the onlookers to come over and help dig holes in the ice.

Of course, this will inevitably cost some money!

This also made some participants feel extremely depressed.

Because they no longer had any extra money, they had to hire someone to help them dig a hole in the ice.

After all, the 3,000 kronor required to participate in the competition alone has already emptied the pockets of many people.

Time passes slowly...

The host's voice kept ringing.

So far, almost 20 minutes of the game have passed.

Cao Xing and Bron are already leading them by nearly 20 points!

Not long after Cao Xing hung the bait again and put the fishing line into the water.

He felt a huge force coming again!

And this time seems a little different from the previous ones.

Even the tough [Mad King Fishing Rod] began to bend slightly.

"Oh? So strong?"

At this moment, he also held the fishing rod tightly!

Then, a test of endurance begins with underwater creatures.

“Blah! Blah!”

The underwater creatures continued to struggle, but Cao Xing's hand holding the fishing rod remained motionless.

The stalemate lasted for about a minute.

When he felt the force on the fishing rod loosen.

Seize the opportunity and lift it up again!

"Blah!"

A sea bream with blue markings, an oval body, a big head and a small mouth.

He was thrown directly onto the ice by Cao Xing.

“Puff! Puff!”

This sea bream is almost one meter long and keeps jumping around.

The host was shocked when he saw the creature on the ice.

He was shocked and said, "Player No. 47! A blue sea bream of excellent quality, 10 points added to the competition score!"

"This is also the first excellent quality snapper caught in this competition. Player No. 47 is really an experienced angler!"

The scoreboard flips over.

In an instant, Cao Xing's points reached 31 points!

A huge gap was immediately created between him and the others!

Under the envious gazes of other contestants.

Cao Xing walked over and collected it.

[Obtained: Blue-striped sea bream (blue)*1]

…

As usual, I took a look at the attributes.

【Blue-striped sea bream (blue)】

【Quality: Excellent】

【Weight: 7.7 kg】

[Effect: The first time you eat it, your spirit will increase by 5. Subsequent consumption can also restore a moderate amount of spirit power.]

(A type of sea bream that has a magical aura and clear mental fluctuations. It is the favorite of the mage profession and can be decomposed into 7 pieces of blue sea bream meat.)

…

"Oh? Not only can it increase your spirit, but it can also restore your spirit."

"No wonder the system notes say that this kind of sea bream is popular among magicians!"

With a satisfied smile on his face, Cao Xing put it into his backpack.

Then he started his next round of fishing.

After the game had lasted for about half an hour.

The other contestants also finally broke through the ice with great difficulty.

Although the hole was small and irregular, it was big enough for them to fish.

The contestants hurriedly drove away the crowd, took out their fishing rods, and started fishing.

As mentioned before, those who dare to participate in the fishing competition are naturally those who have some skills.

But now, the gap between them and Cao Xing is too big.

Unless they can catch a rare quality [Snowflake Sea Bream] right away, it will be difficult to make up for the gap.

However, the value of a single [snowflake snapper] is staggering.

Catching this creature requires not only a strong fishing rod, but also strong strength!

But obviously, they do not have these conditions.

Not only that, the contestants' fishing speed was also much slower than Cao Xing's.

The fishing line was put into the water, and it was not until five or six minutes later that the first fish took a bite.

Compared with Cao Xing who only takes two or three minutes to raise one point, the gap is really huge!

There is no way, the effect of [Special Pet Food] is so overbearing!

Moreover, Cao Xing is currently only using green quality [Special Pet Food].

He still had some more advanced pet food in his backpack that he hadn't used yet.

Cao Xing was also leisurely, pulling up big fish from the water one by one.

【Obtained: Cichlid (green)*1】

【Obtained: Yellow croaker (green)*1】

【Obtained: Blue snapper (green) *1】

【Obtained...】

…

As the system prompt sound continues to ring.

One hour of the game time has passed.

Cao Xing and Bron have each used up 15 green pet food.

So far.

Cao Xing caught 11 green quality fish and 4 blue quality fish.

Braum's performance was similar.

I glanced at the scoreboard on the shore.

【Fishing Contest Points Ranking】

【First place: Player No. 47, 52 points】

【Second place: Player No. 48, 45 points】

【Third place: Player No. 13, 8 points】

【Fourth place: Player No. 8 7 points】

…

Except for him and Bron, obviously.

The gap between the others is almost cliff-like, and none of them even have a double-digit score.

If nothing unexpected happens next.

Then the final champion and runner-up must be them!

Cao Xing had a satisfied smile on his face, and then he took out higher quality rations from his backpack.

"Now, look at the blue pet food, can you give me a little surprise!"

After saying that, he hung the bait up and put the fishing line back into the cold river water.

“Blah… blah…”

The sound of water flowing continuously.

He sat on a small bench, waiting quietly.

However, this time, in less than a minute, Cao Xing felt a huge force coming!

The instantaneous drag force was at least several hundred kilograms.

Cao Xing also grabbed the fishing rod fiercely and pulled the underwater creature steadily.

"Good job guys, the blue quality pet food is as effective as ever!"

"This time, the fish I caught is definitely a big one!"

Cao Xing was overjoyed!

Then he continued to hold on to the fishing rod, in a stalemate with the creature below.

After more than a minute, the strength in my hands loosened.

And Cao Xing also realized that the time had come!

He mentioned it suddenly on the spot!

He picked up a sea bream that was over 1.5 meters long and covered with blue stripes!

When Cao Xing saw this big fish, he was surprised.

"Haha, it's such a big blue snapper, this is so cool!"

Such a big sea bream also attracted everyone's attention on the spot.

The host quickly said, "Contestant No. 47, excellent quality, one blue snapper, extra 10 points!"

The gap has widened again!

Not only that, the host went on to add: "This blue snapper is over 1.5 meters long. It ranks among the top ten blue snappers I have ever seen!"

"According to the market price, it's worth at least 70,000 or 80,000 kronor!"

Hear this number.

All the villagers who were watching held their breath for a moment, and then there was a burst of exclamations!

"Oh my god! How can a fish be sold for 70,000 or 80,000 kronor? Is that so outrageous?"

"Yes, with this much money, it's enough for me to marry several wives!"

"Haha, if you give me 70,000 crowns, I will go directly to the Lavia Tavern and let all those bitches come to serve me!"

When Cao Xing heard the price, he was also happy.

"Not bad, not bad, it's actually worth that much."

"According to this calculation, minus the 10,000 kronor cost of the blue bait, I made at least six or seven times the profit, haha!"

With a look of joy, Cao Xing walked over and collected the fish on the ice.

[Obtained: Blue-striped sea bream (blue)*1]

…

As usual, I checked the properties and found that this sea bream weighed 12 kilograms, which was indeed a big one.

At the same time, Bron also used blue bait and successfully shipped the fish.

"Player No. 48, excellent quality, one blue snapper, plus 10 points!"

Braum also laughed, "My Lord, Braum's is also very big, it weighs at least 10 kilograms."

Cao Xing nodded, "Well done, Braum!"

After that, they placed the second blue quality bait and put the fishing line into the water.

About two minutes passed.

Cao Xing, who was holding the fishing rod, instantly felt an unprecedented force coming!

This force is even greater than that of the blue snapper just now.

He grabbed the fishing rod fiercely. "Fuck! So much strength?"

Cao Xing's eyes fixed and he also became serious.

“Blah…Blah…”

The creatures below struggled violently, causing the fishing rod to bend continuously.

Even Cao Xing was dragged half a step.

Seeing this, Cao Xing fixed his eyes and said:

"Although I am a wizard, don't underestimate my power!"

As he got serious, he began to compete with the underwater creatures.

Everyone turned their eyes over.

Because they all had a hunch...

This time, what this mysterious young man caught might be something extraordinary!

“Blah! Blah!”

After a stalemate of two minutes, Cao Xing finally felt the underwater creature's strength gradually weakening.

After seizing the opportunity, he lifted it up suddenly!

The sound of the water breaking was heard instantly.

A large sea bream that was completely white with snowflake patterns printed on its scales was directly picked up by Cao Xing!

The most peculiar thing was that the big fish was emitting amazing cold air in mid-air, which seemed to freeze all the water vapor around it.

The crystal snowflakes falling down are so beautiful.

At this moment, hundreds of eyes on the field looked over at the same time.

They were all attracted by this big and beautiful fish.

The host was silent for a moment, then said in shock: "Oh my god, it's hard to imagine, it's actually a rare quality marbled sea bream!"

"After so much competition, the first snowflake snapper finally appeared!"

"The value of this fish alone is almost as much as the second place prize in this competition!"

"According to estimates, it is worth at least 200,000 kronor!"

Everyone's breath was held when they heard this number!

On the field, hundreds of eyes were looking at the huge sea bream jumping under Cao Xing's feet!

There is surprise, envy, and greed...

After all, a sea bream is worth more than 200,000 kronor, which is really exaggerated!

For those villagers, they could never imagine in their lifetime that they would have so many crowns!

However, no one on the field dared to do anything beyond the limit.

After all, this young man fishing is so mysterious and powerful.

Just now, his men also showed their strong strength.

One shot penetrated five or six meters of ice. Such terrifying power.

When it comes to ordinary people like them, you can just kill them all.

The host cleared his throat and said excitedly: "Contestant No. 47, a rare quality marbling salmon, +30 points for the competition!"

In an instant, Cao Xing's points reached 94 points, just short of 100!

On the other hand, except for Bloom, no one else has a double-digit score.

This huge gap caused many people to give up the competition on the spot.

Cao Xing also had a look of joy on his face. He walked over and took the beautiful sea bream.

[Obtained: Marbled Sea Bream (Purple)*1]

…

[Snowflake snapper (purple): magical creature]

【Quality: Rare】

【Level: Level 17】

[Weight: 14.8 kg]

[Effect: After first consumption, it increases spirit by 15 points and can heal injuries caused by various mental attacks. ]

(Snowflake snapper has extremely strong mental fluctuations and is very good at treating mental trauma caused by spell backlash or other reasons. It is difficult to catch if you are not strong enough, so it is the favorite of the mage profession.)

…

"My goodness, is this fish meat so horrible?"

"Not only does it increase your spirit by 15 points, it can also cure all kinds of mental damage!"

There are many types of mental injuries.

The most typical of these are the various situations caused by spell backlash.

For the mages in this world, spell backlash is a relatively common thing, and it is something that no one wants to encounter.

Casting any spell requires a spell. If it is interrupted at this time, there will be extremely serious backlash.

Some basic spell backlash is fine.

If it was a large-scale destructive spell and it was suddenly interrupted, the backlash would be almost unimaginable!

In severe cases, it may take years to recover.

As survivors, Cao Xing and others don't have to worry about such things because they have a system panel.

But the natives of this world are different.

Therefore, the efficacy of [Snowflake Sea Bream] is very important to mages.

At the same time.

Not to be outdone, Bron also caught a snowflake snapper of similar size.

Ice crystals are floating in the air.

Everyone's attention was immediately attracted by this scene!

The host exclaimed, "Oh my God, this is another snowflake sea bream!"

"I have been fishing in the Anno River for more than ten years, but I have never seen anyone catch two snowflake snappers in a row!"

"I really learned a lot today!"

Even the villagers present were very excited!

They don't know the magic of [Snowflake Sea Bream].

All they know is that a marbled sea bream is worth at least 200,000 kronor!

A truly priceless fish.

And because they were watching the whole process.

So it felt like they had made money themselves, and everyone was very excited!

"Player No. 48, a rare marbled sea bream, +30 points for the competition!"

On the field, the other contestants were completely numb.

Because they knew that there was no hope for this game.

The champion and runner-up are definitely these two.

But the contestants did not give up.

After all, there are no prizes for the champion and runner-up.

The rewards for the top ten are also very good!

Cao Xing didn't know what they were thinking, but continued to hang up the bait with excitement, starting a new round of sea bream fishing.

“Blah! Blah!”

The sound of water breaking was heard continuously, and huge fish of astonishing value were caught from the Anno River!

Because Cao Xing only planned to use half of the pet food this time.

He and Braum each have 5.

So soon, the two of them used up the other three.

[Obtained: Blue-striped sea bream (blue)*1]

[Obtained: Marbled Sea Bream (Purple)*1]

[Obtained: Blue-striped sea bream (blue)*1]

…

"Haha, three big sea breams again, worth at least 300,000 kronor."

"Combining the previous two items, these five pet foods have brought me at least 550,000 crowns in revenue!"

Cao Xing was pleasantly surprised!

Because the investment in food for 5 pets is only 50,000 kronor.

This time, I made a net profit of ten times!

It’s really exciting just thinking about it.

On the other side, Bronn also caught two blue snappers and one purple snapper.

That’s almost ten times the profit!

The harvest can be said to be quite rich.

As the host continued to report.

Currently, their points are more than 100 points ahead of others.

Even if someone else caught an Emerald Sea Bream at this time, they would not be able to surpass it.

So by now, the integral is not important.

Because no one can surpass them.

At this time, there were only 20 minutes left in the game.

Bron had already used up all the green quality bait and blue quality fish in his hands, and was sitting leisurely on the ice waiting.

Even the host wanted to announce the end of this competition in advance.

However, Cao Xing had no intention of stopping.

Looking at the cold river water, Cao Xing pondered.

"The effect of the rare quality Marble Tai is so strong. If it is the golden quality Emerald Tai, what magical effect will it have?"

With a hint of anticipation.

Cao Xing took out another purple [Special Pet Food] from his backpack and hung it on.

Then, it was put directly into the ice cave.

As the fishing line fell into the river.

After two or three minutes, there was still no sign of a bite.

Cao Xing asked in confusion, "Oh? The purple special pet food hasn't caught any fish yet?"

Did this surprise him a little?

And at this moment.

Cao Xing suddenly noticed that the river water below began to surge.

Everyone suddenly had a strange feeling, as if something was approaching them rapidly under the water.

Yes, even ordinary people have this feeling.

…
