Jerry shook his head. He didn't care what kind of fish it was, as long as it came up. And judging from the shape of the fish and the constant discussion in the audience, the fish was undoubtedly worth a lot.

He stepped forward and, under the gaze of everyone, decisively punched the still struggling big fish on the head.

After receiving such a heavy blow, the big fish's eyes turned white and it fainted, lying powerlessly on the ground.

Then, Jerry opened the fish's mouth and took a closer look, and found that there was a very familiar object hanging on the fish hook in the big fish's mouth.

"Ah, this... can't be that? No way..."

Rubbing his eyes, with a bit of uncertainty and disbelief, Jerry carefully looked at the fish's mouth that he had pried open even wider.

After confirming what was in the fish's mouth, Jerry quickly closed the fish's mouth and looked around like a guilty thief.

Then, he remembered that others should not be able to see what was in his perspective, so he breathed a long sigh of relief and felt a little more relaxed.

After a moment, the host received a signal from the referee, nodded, and loudly announced the end of the game.

At this point, the referee signaled to the contestants to stand still.

The staff also walked towards the contestants to collect their results, and the referees used the video Den Den Mushi to watch the contestants from all angles to prevent them from cheating during this time.

Jerry looked around and found that everyone had gained something.

After all, the organizers took into account the large number of contestants and took many measures to attract fish to gather, even releasing some live fish into the lake the day before.

However, what everyone caught was not only fish, but also a lot of miscellaneous debris, and even worse, someone even caught an unknown human skeleton.

Seeing this, Jerry slapped his head and felt that all fishermen in the world were evil. After casting the hook, what he could catch depended on luck.

The staff started counting the players at the sidelines. Since most of them were fishing in a crowded area, the harvest was naturally not great.

But some people can get inexplicably high scores by fishing for strange and bizarre objects.

After the referee's explanation, Jerry remembered that the rules stated that the winner was determined by the value of the fish caught by the contestant, and it did not specify whether it was a fish or other items.

It seems that the organizers are indeed well versed in fishing and know that this group of people can sometimes catch anything except fish, so they decided not to stick to the value of the fish, but to extend it to all items caught.

After hearing the referee's clear explanation of the rules, Jerry immediately murmured in a low voice with a strange look on his face:

"So... that thing..."

"Ahem, if it's not necessary, just keep it in the fish's mouth."

After Jerry made up his mind, he looked at the ranking list kept by the referee.

The current statistics are based on fishing from the shallow water area at the edge of the field to the deep water area of ​​the best fishing spot.

In terms of points, except for a few lucky ones who catch valuable items like pearls, the points basically increase as you progress.

In addition to the fact that the depth of the lake causes the fish to vary in size, the more important factor is that there are more people in the shallow water areas and fewer people in the deep water areas. The fewer people there are, the less interference and competition there will be.

In the end, the second-to-last person counted was, as expected, the big man McGee.

As the favorite to win two consecutive championships, he not only knows the rules, but also has the corresponding skills and abilities.

After being thrown into the water by Jerry, he quickly climbed ashore and headed for another best fishing spot, and successfully drove the other contestants away in panic.

Therefore, McGee gained a lot. According to the staff's statistics, his points quickly surpassed those of other players and he took the top spot.

"Alas, I am still no match for him."

"Yeah, even though I also occupied the best fishing spot, I still lost... I really can't accept it, it was just that close."

The two players who were squeezed to the second and third place by McGee looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

"Oh! Great! We'll definitely win!"

"It looks like McGee can achieve three consecutive championships, right?"

"That should be the case. Although the number of fish that the young man collected is not counted, he only collected one golden arowana. It is rare enough and should not be as valuable as McGee's."

"Yeah, who would have thought that McGee had harvested some rare fish species and even a gem-encrusted pirate hat."

There was a lot of discussion in the audience. After several hours of long competition, they paid attention from time to time. Before the game was over, many people already had a rough ranking in their minds.

Those gamblers who bet on McGee to win could not help but start celebrating at this moment. After all, in their estimation, the remaining Jerry could only rank around fourth or fifth at best and posed no threat to McGee.

This was thanks to the fact that the golden arowana Jerry caught before the end of the game was large enough and extremely rare.

"Contestant, Jerry, your achievement is a rare species of golden arowana. The judging will be based on factors such as length and weight."

"integral."

Sure enough, the host and the referee team walked up to Jerry, nodded, and quickly operated, then announced loudly.

"Then, the exciting moment has arrived, the last row of this competition..."

"Wait a minute."

The host was about to lead the team back to the shore to arrange the rankings, but was stopped by Jerry beside him.

Jerry glanced at the ranking updated in real time on the big screen and knew that with just that big fish, he could only rank fourth, a little behind the top two, and still 20 away from the championship.

It is totally impossible to meet my own inner demands, not to mention that this ranking not only makes it impossible to complete the system tasks, but also requires punishment.

Jerry gritted his teeth and thought, how can this be tolerated? Can the system's crappy punishment be imposed arbitrarily?

Under the host's puzzled gaze, he walked steadily to the big fish, bent down and pinched the fish's mouth, raised his head expressionlessly and said to the referee:

"My catch is not just this fish, come and see."

After saying that, Jerry gently let go of the big fish, walked aside, and looked up at the setting sun.

His back looked particularly desolate in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if carrying endless thoughts and emotions.

"Okay, it looks like there's a reversal in the rankings!"

"According to contestant Jerry's feedback, there is an extra harvest inside his golden arowana's mouth. Let us all witness it together!"

This kind of event that can ultimately affect the outcome of the game is exactly what the host likes to see the most. He shouted loudly with a smile on his face.

The two top treasure appraisers looked at each other, then squatted down, pried open the fish's mouth, and with great difficulty took out the fishing hook and the object on it that had not been removed yet.

"This……"

"This is a priceless pearl in the ocean!"

"That's right! That's it!"

“I never thought that the Pearl of the Sea that disappeared more than ten years ago would appear here!”

After seeing the object in the fish's mouth, the two judges' pupils trembled and they screamed in shock.

"Oh? It sounds like a very impressive name. Please ask the referee to explain it to us."

The host's eyes lit up, and after he finished speaking passionately, he waved his hand to signal the staff to turn up the volume of the microphone.

"The Pearl of the Sea is the famous underwear created by the legendary master Dick, who is both a gem craftsman and an underwear designer, over a period of three years!"

"It is made up of 108 dazzling gemstones of various types. It is high-profile but not too luxurious, and it has hidden secrets. It can be called the battle suit that women dream of and the ultimate accelerator for men!"

"As a man, I personally like it very much, Judge Larkin, what do you think?"

"Me too!"
