Chapter 55: Can I Take These Fish?
He Xiaoyu listened in silence, shocked as if she had heard the greatest secret.
It was not Fang Ze’s plan to visit them, but since he had arrived, he decided to give his juniors some greeting gifts. He took out two Crimson Sea Fruits and said, “Since we’ve met, these two spiritual fruits are my gifts for you!”
He Xiaoyu accepted one of them, stunned. They were the Crimson Sea Fruits that only the village leader could enjoy! But the angel had tossed them to her casually!
Han Fei, on the other hand, thought for a moment and said, “Master Angel, would it be outrageous if I propose a request?”
Fang Ze was rather surprised that Han Fei did not take the Crimson Sea Fruit. A regular villager could resist such temptation? Even Tang Ge was too shocked to say anything when he saw the Crimson Sea Fruit for the first time.
Fang Ze said, “Oh? What is it that you want? Although you are Tang Ge’s brother, I won’t take your Incomplete Monograph on 108 Ways of Body Conditioning without giving anything in return.”
Han Fei said, “Master Angel, could you grant me a boat? Regular boats are too fragile for battles. I’m afraid that I’ll spend a long time here, so a good boat might be more useful than a spiritual fruit.”
Fang Ze smiled and said, “Interesting. You are smart. A good boat is much more important than a spiritual fruit.”
“Huh?”
Han Fei pretended to be surprised.
Fang Ze waved his hand and said, “Fine, I’ll give you a boat.”
A white boat appeared in the ocean out of nowhere. Its shape and decorations were much better than those of the boat they were on
What caught Han Fei’s attention was not the boat itself but how it appeared. He wondered if it had the same mechanism as his Forge the Universe.
Fang Ze said, “All right, your trial will end soon. Go now.”
Fang Ze disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The village leader announced soon after Fishing Trial left, “I hereby announce that the Fishing Trial has ended. Everyone will stay where they are. I will watch in the sky. The result of whoever moves will be nullified.”
All the inspectors were deployed. Some parents also came in to check the result.
An inspector came to Han Fei after a quarter. Han Fei was surprised. He knew the inspector to be Zhou Ding from the southern campus, who grabbed him out of the southern campus last time.
Zhou Ding was stunned to see the dozens of boats. He thought that they must belong to a Heavenly Talent, but he exclaimed when he saw Han Fei and He Xiaoyu. “It’s you?”
Han Fei said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhou.”
He Xiaoyu said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhou.”
Tang Ge said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Zhou.”
Zhou Ding asked, “Are you Tang Ge?”
After seeing Tang Ge, he was no longer surprised about so many boats. Who dared to stop the disciple of an angle from robbing them?
…
Of the ten thousand boats that participated in the trial, only three thousand remained. At this moment, all the staff in the ports were summoned to calculate the fish on those boats.
Scores were announced now and then.
“Zhou Chang, total score: 481 points.”
“Ding Dayu, total score: 389 points.”
“Xu Erling, total score: 501 points.”
Whenever someone’s score was above five hundred, people exclaimed, because such a score was almost certainly among the top thousand.
Suddenly, one of the staff exclaimed, Wang… Wang Baiyu, total score: 4,982 points.”
“Hua!”
Everybody was shocked. It was almost five thousand points. The third son of the Wang family was truly extraordinary!
One of the parents exclaimed, “He’s definitely the second place!”
Some parents were envious. “I’m told that the angel will award the top three with Spirit Concentration Art. It must be an awesome battle technique.”
Some parents mocked, “What do you know? Spirit Concentration Art is not a battle technique but a great profession. Those who practice Spirit Concentration are known as Spirit Concentrators.”
Some parents even said with mixed feelings, “I wish that Wang Baiyu was my son!”
…
Han Fei, Tang Ge and He Xiaoyu were waiting for their scores to be calculated.
It was Tang Ge’s turn first. The staff was dumbfounded to see the chain of boats. Were they all Tang Ge’s?
Tang Ge pointed at them and said, “Those five boats are mine.”
“Hu…”
Everybody took a breath in relief. They almost thought that the boats all belonged to Tang Ge.
Soon, someone exclaimed again, “Tang Ge… Tang Ge’s total score is 5,882 points.”
The parents remarked again, “As expected of the angel’s disciple. He’s a thousand points higher than Wang Baiyu.”
Someone shook their head. “Not just a thousand. If Wang Baiyu’s family hadn’t asked other people to help him, he couldn’t have obtained five thousand points.”
Wang Jie, as Tang Ge’s teacher, blushed in excitement. That was his student! It seemed that they had a winner now.
Nobody thought that the angel helped him, because it was not worth it. If the angel had taken action, he could’ve reaped fifty thousand points easily.
On the other hand, He Xiaoyu was brought away for statistics, too.
He Mingtang had been observing her. When he saw that He Xiaoyu returned with Tang Ge and Han Fei, he knew that his daughter’s result couldn’t be bad.
Before He Xiaoyu’s fish was weighed, a worker announced, “Hu Kun, 1,299 points.”
Hu Kun was excited. The last twelve hours had been perilous for him. He was almost killed many times even though he was in level seven now. After hearing the score, he knew that he could be among the top hundred.
But he saw He Xiaoyu behind him and changed his face when he noticed the three boats that came with her. Did Li Hu not catch her?
A moment later, the worker said in shock, “He Xiaoyu, total score: 3,012 points.”
“Hahaha…”
He Mingtang couldn’t help but laugh in excitement.
A teacher complimented him: “Old He, you have a great daughter!”
“Mr. He, your daughter is a future grand fishing master!”
“Mr. He, my boy’s score is not very high, but he is handsome and courteous. Can you consider him?”
He Mingtang couldn’t hear any of that now. Your son looks like a yellow fish, yet you say that he’s handsome, and you want him to marry my daughter?
All the parents saw He Xiaoyu’s appearance and praised how beautiful she was.
Someone even secretly remembered it and planned to ask his son to pursue her.
Hu Kun was stunned. The score was a slap in his face. He thought that He Xiaoyu was robbed by Li Hu, but why did she have 3,012 points? Was He Xiaoyu stronger than him?
Hu Kun saw Han Fei behind He Xiaoyu. Immediately, he felt awful, because he saw the dense boats behind Han Fei.
…
Finally, it was Han Fei’s turn to be calculated.
The worker asked, “Are you Han Fei? Which of these boats is yours?”
Han Fei said, “All of them are mine.”
The worker stared at Han Fei. “Say what? All of them are yours?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes! All of them.”
The worker circled the boats in disbelief and asked again, “Are they truly yours?”
Han Fei said, “There are so many teachers here. How can I be lying?”
Han Fei had twenty-one boats in total. Nobody could’ve believed that they all belonged to one person!
While they were calculating, one of the workers opened a cabin and exclaimed in shock. It was full of blade fish without a single green turtle. The worker was dumbfounded.
Han Fei was the only one who knew that there were only four boats of blade fish, but that was still plenty.
A moment later, when Han Fei’s result was out, a worker simply cried.
Everybody looked at the worker, but she raised the book and stammered, “Han Fei… Han Fei’s total score is 13,208 points.”
