Soon, in less than a minute, all of Lu Rong's team members were in place.
Seeing the large fish swimming slowly on the surface of the water, everyone's hearts were in their throats, afraid that it would escape.
After all, there's only one final step left to success: retrieving it.
Xu Fei moved quickly, picked up the net and slowly jumped off the reef.
He rolled up his trousers and carefully took the net, trying to catch the gray fish that had been pulled to the surface of the water.
Judging from its appearance, it's probably 40-50 centimeters long and weighs 30-40 kilograms, or even more.
Fortunately, the organizers seemed to have anticipated this situation, so their nets were very large and long, making it easy to fish in the sea.
At this moment, not only the photographers, but also many staff members couldn't help but gather around, because they all saw clearly that this time it really wasn't wood or a sea snake, but a real fish.
Even the two big shots, Wu Zhengchuan and Li Shangui, were no exception, and they curiously gathered around.
For others, they were mainly just watching the show, but for Lu Rong, it was a completely different story.
After all, Lu Rong had brought them so many surprises these past few days, and they had always had very high expectations for him from the very beginning.
After getting to know each other and competing over the past few days, they have become increasingly optimistic about Lu Rong. So now that they see Lu Rong about to catch a big fish, they are extremely excited.
They genuinely wanted Lu Rong to catch a rare, large fish and successfully complete today's competition.
Now that the big fish has surfaced, as long as it doesn't escape, Lu Rong should have little trouble completing today's task.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly discovered the fish's true identity.
"This is a very rare bluefin tuna," someone in the crowd exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, everyone's attention became even more focused, and many contestants couldn't help but run over.
It's important to know that bluefin tuna is a very rare species.
They can generally only be caught in the deep sea.
I never expected to run into you here.
It seems this island is a special place, as even such rare fish have come here.
The viewers in the live stream were overjoyed.
"My God, have you heard? It's a bluefin tuna! That's an extremely rare fish."
"It is said that bluefin tuna is very delicious. I have read reports that they swim non-stop from birth, so their muscles are very thick and delicious."
"I've heard of that too, but due to years of overfishing in Little Days Country, this fish has become very rare and has even been listed as one of the fish species to be protected."
"Is this fish still edible? I'm really curious."
"You can eat it. There's no law against eating this kind of fish. It's just that we suggest people eat less of it, because if we keep eating it, it might become extinct."
"In any case, Lu Rong was able to catch this fish because he was highly skilled, and he was also very lucky."
"Speaking of which, Tang Haohan went to change his pants, hasn't he come back yet? If he saw this scene, he'd probably die of anger on the spot."
"No, he only caught a sea snake and scared himself so much that he peed his pants, which caused his reputation to plummet. But Lu Rong was different. He caught a rare bluefin tuna right from the start."
"It's too early to draw conclusions. The fish is still struggling violently. If it manages to break free, all our efforts will be in vain."
"Lu Rong's assistant was already trying to scoop the fish up from below with a net, but the fish seemed to struggle even more after seeing the net, constantly darting around, so it wasn't going to be caught quickly."
"Now we can only pray that the fish won't get off the hook. As long as the hook is still on it, there's no need to worry about not being able to catch it. It's just a matter of time. It will be exhausted if it goes any further down."
"I think this fish is almost certainly caught. It's said that this fish needs to keep moving, otherwise it will die. So you have to deal with it immediately after you catch it, because it will die very quickly."
"Is it such a strange fish? I've never heard of it before. It's so pitiful; it dies as soon as it stops moving."
"There's nothing we can do about it; it's just how things are. Every species has its own unique characteristics."
"I'm a bit conflicted right now. I want to see Lu Rong make a delicious tuna dish, but I'm also worried that once the tuna is eaten, there will be one less in the world, and we'll be getting closer and closer to extinction."
"No matter what, as the top of the food chain, humans still need to eat sometimes, there's no way around it."
...........
Back to the scene.
When Lu Rong saw that the fish he had caught was actually a bluefin tuna, he was immediately surprised.
He never expected to find such expensive fish in this place. He also knew very well that this was a very rare fish, which was now on the verge of extinction and its numbers had greatly decreased due to overfishing by humans.
He struggled to steady himself and looked down at Xu Fei, who was holding a net and preparing to catch a big fish. He hurriedly shouted, "Xu Fei, don't bother catching it, come back quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Fei was immediately confused and looked at Lu Rong with a questioning expression: "If we don't catch it now, it will run away later."
Lu Rong didn't have time to explain further. He loosened the fishing rod he was pulling on and then tried to drag it in another direction.
