RBCT Chapter 44 Ranking
Chapter 44 Ranking
As the staff began to pull upwards, Xiao Kai's fish basket was slowly lifted.
Snap snap snap snap~
A series of loud splashing sounds soon reached the ears of the onlookers, and the situation in Xiao Kai's fish basket quickly came into view.
hiss~
"Holy crap!"
"That's way too many fish! At least fifty pounds!"
"Exactly! It's only been a few hours since the start of the competition. How are the other teams supposed to compete?"
"Wow, this should be number one, right now!"
"Not necessarily, but very likely."
"I heard that Master Liu over there caught a super big silver carp, and several other carp. They must be heavier than the ones here!"
"You've been there?"
"without."
"Who can say for sure!"
...
These whispers reached Xiao Kai's ears, and even though he considered himself thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush.
But more than anything, I felt a secret sense of satisfaction.
After all, young people always like to be praised.
"Wow, Mr. Xiao, you've caught a lot!"
The staff member in charge of filming the footage said in surprise.
He had come over midway to film the footage, so he didn't know what had happened before and assumed that Xiao Kai's efficiency in catching fish was only in the latter part of the time.
Nevertheless, he still guessed that Xiao Kai's catch should be in the top ten.
But only then did he realize that he had underestimated his opponent.
This isn't the top ten; it should be the top three.
Faced with the staff's repeated praise, Xiao Kai smiled and didn't say anything more.
The staff didn't waste any words and directed the others to weigh the items.
Soon, the weight of these fish was determined.
Since all fish baskets are provided uniformly and have the same weight, the weighing tools used for weighing have been peeled beforehand, so the weight measured is the actual weight of all the fish caught in the fish basket.
Xiao Kai weighed out a total of 27.3 kilograms of these fish.
Despite being somewhat prepared, everyone was still incredibly shocked by this outcome.
As for Xiao Kai himself, he didn't think too much about it, after all, he had gotten used to getting all the rare items during this period.
And just as he said, the competition is still long, and he can't be sure if anything will happen later.
Although he has great faith in the aperture, he still doesn't underestimate anyone.
Soon, the staff finished weighing the fish in the fish basket and then left.
......
As the staff left, the people around gradually dispersed.
Everything seemed to have returned to its original state.
Seeing this, Xiao Kai returned to his fishing spot and began fishing.
Seeing this, Xiao Peng immediately brought over a cup of hot water.
"Xiao Kai, come and have some hot water!" Xiao Peng said.
"Thanks, Brother Peng!"
Xiao Kai was also a little thirsty.
He was fishing intensely for over an hour without even a sip of water; no wonder he was thirsty.
I originally had a chance to drink it before the fish was caught, but it's been delayed until now.
"Don't mention it. After you finish your drink, I'll go and find out the current rankings!" Xiao Peng waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Hmm, that works too!"
Xiao Kai nodded upon hearing this; he was also very curious about the current rankings.
Xiao Peng left very soon.
Not long after, he returned.
"Xiao Kai, guess where you are in place right now?"
Upon returning, Xiao Peng greeted Xiao Kai with a joyful expression.
Xiao Kai smiled and said, "In short, I probably won't be number one!"
"Um?"
How did you know?
Xiao Peng was very puzzled.
Xiao Kai chuckled and explained, "Didn't someone just say that Master Liu over there caught a big silver carp and several common carp?"
"But what does it matter? You didn't see it, did you?" Xiao Peng asked, puzzled.
"I just said it offhand, and you actually believed it!" Xiao Kai said with a smile.
"Go? I thought you were a fortune teller." Xiao Peng rolled his eyes.
Xiao Kai smiled and said.
"I can't calculate, but I can guess!"
"Think about it, even a place as bad as ours has opened its mouth, how could others in much better locations not make a move at all!"
"Besides, with the skills of those fishing masters, they can't be so easily trampled underfoot by a newbie like me, right?"
After listening to Xiao Kai's analysis, Xiao Peng nodded and said, "That's true. If it were that easy to get first place, wouldn't all those people have been fishing for nothing all these years!"
Xiao Kai nodded, then asked, "By the way, what was my ranking?"
Upon hearing Xiao Kai mention the rankings, Xiao Peng's smile returned, and he said, "Hehe, third!"
"Third?"
Xiao Kai looked into the distance, deep in thought.
The result was pretty much what he expected.
In his opinion, although he had the help of a cheat code, it was not so easy to get first place.
It wasn't that he looked down on himself, nor that he underestimated the aperture.
The main reason is that he is very clear that his advantage lies in the aperture's ability to attract fish, but in other aspects, he is far behind those fishing masters.
As mentioned before, the effectiveness of his cheat system depends on resources.
Judging from his current fishing spot, the fact that so many fish have gathered in just over an hour since the start of the competition is already the limit for this area.
You can tell from the fact that those air force guys next to me haven't had a single bite yet.
Compared to him, other seasoned anglers, especially those renowned fishing masters, cannot match him in terms of either the resources of their fishing spots or their personal skills.
As the saying goes, even a large number of ants can kill an elephant.
With so many experts, it wouldn't be surprising if one or two of them, with a bit of luck and combined personal skill, surpassed him.
Although he wasn't an elephant and those people weren't ants, that's roughly the gist of it.
In short, no one knows the final outcome until the very last moment.
Xiao Kai will not look down on anyone just because he has a cheat code.
.....
Time flew by and it was noon.
As the sun slowly emerged from the clouds, the air temperature rose somewhat compared to the morning.
People around also started to move.
Even the air force veterans near Xiao Kai started catching fish.
Compared to Xiao Kai's excellent link efficiency in the morning, their current situation seems so pitiful.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, their fate was sealed from the start.
But that's reality. Some people are destined to be the main characters, while others are destined to be supporting characters. Without these people, the competition wouldn't have been able to proceed smoothly.
Even if they fail this time, who can say for sure that they won't be the main characters next time?
If it were Xiao Kai before he received the cheat code, he might not even have been qualified to be a supporting character.
"Xiao Kai, you haven't made a sound since you stopped eating. Aren't you worried?" Xiao Peng said as he ate the lunch that the organizers had brought him.
Xiao Kai picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth. Hearing this, he glanced at the water and said, "What's the rush? There's still plenty of time!"
"Alright! It's good that you're confident!" Xiao Peng nodded.
He now has great confidence in Xiao Kai.
As they were talking, Xiao Kai seemed to have thought of something and asked a question.
"By the way, did you record all the footage of my consecutive shots this morning?"
"Um!"
Xiao Peng made an OK sign.
"Don't worry, how could I forget something so important? I'll organize it and send it to you later!"
Ever since he learned that Xiao Kai planned to create his own Douyin account, he had already thought of these things, so he had been preparing for them from the very beginning.
He not only recorded the scenes from the competition, but also every little thing he encountered while traveling here.
"No rush!"
Xiao Kai shook his head.
"I'll give it to you after the competition ends. I still need to learn video editing from you!"
"Okay!" Xiao Peng nodded in agreement.
