That's the beauty of fishing; surprises always come unexpectedly.
One second they were chatting happily, and the next second a fish took the bait, which made Lu Rong run over immediately.
Upon noticing this, Su Tingyun immediately stopped what she was about to say and quietly watched from behind Lu Rong.
Her unblinking eyes revealed her curiosity about the fish that was about to take the bait.
Seemingly thinking of the sea snake that Tang Haohan had just caught, she became a little scared and involuntarily took several steps back, which was extremely cute.
At this moment, the buoy on the water's surface was swinging rapidly from side to side before quickly sinking.
Lu Rong reacted quickly, realizing the fish had taken a firm bite, so he pulled hard while simultaneously spinning the coil with his right hand.
A two-pronged approach.
Immediately afterwards, a tremendous pulling force came from the bottom of the water and was transmitted through the fishing rod to Lu Rong's hand.
The immense force caused Lu Rong's hand to involuntarily extend forward, but he wasn't about to let the big fish escape. He then stomped his feet hard on the ground, leaned back, and slowly retreated.
The fish seemed not to have expected Lu Rong to be so strong. It was originally struggling wildly around on the seabed, but now that Lu Rong had exerted such force, it seemed to feel the terrifying power and its strength to swing around decreased significantly.
But this fish must have been quite large. Even though it wasn't struggling as much as it had at the beginning, it still had a lot of strength, so it continued to swim slowly at the bottom of the water, secretly competing with Lu Rong.
It seems to be gathering strength, preparing for an imminent attack.
However, since the hook was firmly caught in the fish's mouth, Lu Rong was not worried that the fish would escape.
Su Tingyun, who was standing to the side, really wanted to step forward and help Lu Rong, but she was afraid that she would get in the way. She was like an ant on a hot pan, anxious and at a loss.
Of course, she's not usually that stupid.
As the most beautiful girl at Kyoto University, she is exceptionally talented in every aspect, including intelligence, appearance, and more.
Normally, one wouldn't panic in such a situation, but it's different when one is with Lu Rong. After all, one's IQ tends to drop lower when in front of the man one loves.
She knew very well that if she rushed in to help with her limited skills, she would only make things worse, so she could only stand by and worry.
Soon, because Lu Rong's pulling motion was too large, the cameraman who was filming nearby noticed the situation and rushed over.
Two or three photographers were taking pictures from a distance of two or three meters away from Lu Rong.
It looks extremely professional.
They seemed to have a clear division of labor, with each person responsible for a different aspect.
Make sure to capture the scene perfectly from every angle.
These photographers were relatively far from Lu Rong before, since there were so many contestants and they couldn't possibly take care of everyone.
Although Lu Rong was the focus of attention today, the photographers were smart enough not to get too close and become third wheels, considering that Su Tingyun was right next to him.
Instead, they were filming from a distance.
Of course, things are different now. After all, there are fish on the hook, and after the incident involving Tang Haohan and Yuan Hua, the viewers in the live stream are even more eager for the fish to take the bait.
Seeing that Lu Rong had caught the fish again, the viewers in the live stream were almost going crazy with joy, all guessing what it would be.
"I'm wondering if the snake that Tang Haohan just caught has run off to Lu Rong's place again? If that's the case, it's terrifying."
"Do you think sea snakes are that stupid? They were just hooked a second ago, and now they're biting someone else's hook? I don't think so, so I think the chances of catching a fish this time are very high."
"I don't believe everyone is that unlucky. Tang Haohan caught a sea snake just now because he was so bad and got his comeuppance. Lu Rong is such an excellent person, with a good character and personality. How could he be so unlucky? I'm voting for Lu Rong. I think he'll catch a big fish, and a rare one at that."
"Me too, me too, I'm going to vote for Lu Rong. I'm starting to think more and more highly of him now."
"Lu Rong is really amazing. He truly deserves to be our senior from Kyoto University. Just look at how he fishes; he's obviously a professional. He's much better than the others just now. I think he'll catch a big fish this time."
"From a probabilistic point of view, since we haven't caught any fish before, the probability of catching fish this time is very high. After all, there can't be no fish in such a large ocean area. Moreover, as the only small island within dozens of kilometers, I think the probability of fish coming ashore is very high."
"And I noticed that this fish was moving around a lot, so it must weigh at least 30 or 40 pounds."
"Look, look! The fish is coming up; it's grayish-white."
Back to Lu Rong's side.
Although the fish looked very strong, Lu Rong was no pushover either, and he trained regularly, so he was incredibly strong.
Even though the fish at the bottom of the water was still struggling, it was clear that the situation had slowly shifted to Lu Rong's side.
He quickly spun the coil and kept casting the fishing rod upwards. Soon, the fish in the water seemed to be exhausted and stopped struggling, allowing Lu Rong to slowly drag it out of the water.
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw a large gray fish slowly swaying on the surface of the water, but the movement was not large, and it was obvious that it had run out of strength, with the fishhook tightly hooked in its mouth.
At this moment, Su Tingyun had already sent a message to Xu Fei and the others, asking them to come and assist.
