Silence. Everybody was quiet.
Originally, everyone was still chatting in full swing, but when the score came out, everyone's voices disappeared.
The teachers and staff were all dumbfounded. The principal, the village leader, and Han Fei's teacher, Wang Jie, were all dumbfounded.
Only Tang Ge was smiling, and Han Fei scratched his head. It seemed that the atmosphere was rather awkward.
"It's impossible. He cheated."
At this moment, Hu Kun grew excited. He was truly shocked by the number. He couldn't have gotten such a number even if his score was ten times higher. The only thing he could think of was that Han Fei cheated. Otherwise, how could he have gotten such a high score?
Han Fei narrowed his eyes and looked at him. "Young man, you have to be responsible for your words!"
At this moment, the village leader stood out too. "Young man, you do have to be responsible for your words. Do you have any proof that Han Fei cheated?"
Of course, Hu Kun did not have any proof, but he suddenly thought of something and said, "It must be Tang Ge. Han Fei and Tang Ge are good friends. Tang Ge must've given his points to Han Fei. Otherwise, how could he have gotten so many points?"
"Humph …"
At this moment, Tang Ge stood out and said, "Hu Kun, don't be ridiculous. I didn't give Han Fei any points. He earned those points on his own. "
Hu Kun said excitedly, "Nonsense. He was a level-two fisher a month ago. How could he have earned more than ten thousand points in the Fishing Trial in only one month? Do you believe it? "
The village leader and the others all looked at Han Fei, wondering what was going on. He was still a level-two fisher a month ago, but he didn't seem to be one anymore! He seemed to be at least a level-seven fisher.
Han Fei, however, was not bothered. "Hu Kun, everybody has their own opportunities. I've been through life-and-death situations multiple times. Shouldn't I deserve some opportunities? You, on the other hand, are too narrow-minded to be ranked in the top ten with more than a thousand points? Why are you mocking me? Tell me, are you jealous of me, envious of me, or do you hate me? "
At this moment, a parent shouted, "Young man, why don't you tell us how you got your points?"
"That's right. It's not a problem to tell us how you got them, is it?"
"How many people did you rob to get so many points?"
For a moment, countless people opened their mouths. Some people really wanted to know, while others just wanted to watch the show.
The village chief berated, "Quiet, all the parents shut up, the trial statistics haven't ended yet."
Finally, the noise died down. The village leader looked at Han Fei awkwardly. "Student Han Fei, right? You can tell me, and I guarantee that no one will cause trouble for you. "
Han Fei asked, "Mr. Village Leader, does your promise count?"
The Village Chief's face immediately turned red. What do you mean by my promise? Can you remove the word "will"?
Village Chief: "Of course it is. Just say it, no one will cause trouble for you."
"Here's what happened. I didn't want to fight for it, so I just wanted to be a quiet, handsome man. But a lot of people wanted to snatch me … Among them were Li Hu, Xia Wushuang, and some students I didn't know. Well, so I snatched them."
At this moment, Han Fei finally bared his fangs. It was just a village. What ordinary people regarded as Heavenly Talents was nothing in the eyes of the big shots. But if he was not even a Heavenly Talent in the village, how could he make a name for himself? So, he thought it was time to show his strength.
"What? You snatched Li Hu's boat?"
"Huh? I saw Xia Wushuang come back injured. Did he snatch it? "
"That's impossible! Li Hu is a level-eight fisher. "
"Xia Wushuang has a level-four, low-quality Spiritual Heritage. How could he beat him?"
The crowd whispered to each other. Many people didn't believe it.
Hu Kun was still scolding, "Speaking of which, Li Hu and Xia Wushuang are both level-eight fishers. How could you snatch their boats?"
Han Fei looked at him with pity in his eyes. "Is that so strange? Because they can't beat me! Or should I ask them to say it themselves? "
It was a pity that neither Li Hu nor Xia Wushuang could stand out at this moment. Li Jue, who was among the parents, was clenching his fists so hard that he almost couldn't hold back his anger. His son was almost crippled, but he couldn't be angry. He even had to thank Han Fei for not killing him. Not just that, he had to find a way to compensate Han Fei so that Han Fei would stop pursuing the inspector.
Xia Wushuang was even more proud. Apart from Tang Ge, his Spiritual Heritage was the highest in the entire Heavenly Water Village, so he should be the strongest one apart from Tang Ge. Unfortunately, in the end, he was defeated by a nobody. Was he going to go out and embarrass himself?
Han Fei looked at the staff and asked, "Can my points be confirmed?"
The staff looked at the village leader and nodded. "Student Han Fei's total points are 13,208. If you don't accept it, you can come and investigate it, but don't interfere with the subsequent points calculation. "
However, Han Fei didn't intend to leave but asked the staff in a low voice, "Hello, can I take my fish away?"
The staff was stunned for a moment. "We provide recycling services. Otherwise, it won't be easy to take the dozens of boats."
Han Fei nodded. "Of course! I'll take them back myself. "
The staff: "…"
…
The points were calculated very quickly. It was done before the sun completely set.
The village leader stood on the boat in midair with a list in his hand.
The village leader announced, "I'll announce the result of this Fishing Trial."
"First place, Han Fei, total points: 13,208."
"Second place, Tang Ge, total points: 5,882."
"Third place, Wang Baiyu, total points: 4,982."
"Fourth place, Xiang Nan, total points: 4,356."
…
"Seventh place, He Xiaoyu, total points: 3,012."
…
"Tenth place, Chen Qing, total points: 2,222."
Once the top ten were over, the points at the bottom began to drop drastically, from the eleventh place's 1800 points to the hundredth place's 1120 points. Hu Kun was ranked 86th, which was not a bad result. However, it was still not good enough compared to the top ten.
The final result was that the 1,000th had 496 points.
Some were happy, and some were sad. The top thousand students were happy, but what the village leader said next shocked many people.
The village leader said, "Dear students, I believe that you've realized the cruelty of the Fishing Trial. This is a microcosm of the real world. Such things happen every day in the level-one and level-two fisheries."
Many students fell silent, and so did their parents. Many parents were silent since the beginning, because they couldn't find their children.
The village leader shouted, "Do you know the casualties in this Fishing Trial? According to the statistics of the inspectors, there were 13564 students in the Fishing Trial, but only 10321 of them made it back. That's 3,243. Almost 25% of the students were buried in the sea forever. "
Everybody was shocked, including Han Fei himself. He knew that there were casualties, which could be seen from the fact that the boats he robbed were empty. Many people on those boats had been killed. He Xiaoyu also said that Li Hu had killed people. And those who were originally in an alliance were the main source of the students who had died this time.
The village leader was moved. "Reality is cruel. There were 2,982 boats that participated in the Fishing Trial from beginning to end. According to the final statistics, five thousand people were injured in the trial, and some were even permanently disabled … I'm telling you this not to frighten you, but to let you know that this is a man-eating ocean. If you don't want to be abandoned and perish, you must work hard. As long as you are alive, there will be hope for your life."
Han Fei was silent after hearing the data. This was just a Fishing Trial in the village, and the casualty rate was already so high. What about the towns? What about the cities?
He realized the cruelty of this world, or to be more exact, the cruelty of cultivation for the first time. One out of hundreds of ordinary people could become a fishing master, but could one out of hundreds of fishing masters become a great fishing master? How many great fishing masters would it take to become a Dangling Fisher like He Xiaoyu? How many people's bones would one have to step on to become a Hidden Fisher like Fang Ze?
Han Fei looked at the parents. None of them were smiling anymore. Some were crying, and some were comforting their children.
Han Fei took a deep breath. This was a fight against fate, against fate, against fate, against fate.
