Fishing for a 100,000-year Spirit Beast.
This was something no one dared to imagine.
Even the powerhouses of Sea God Island couldn't make such an astonishing move.
Firstly, 100,000-year Spirit Beasts are enormous, possess immense strength, and are incredibly agile in the ocean, making hunting them much harder than on land, let alone fishing for them?
Secondly, to what strength must the fishing rod, line, and hook be forged? To withstand the pulling of a 100,000-year Spirit Beast without breaking?
And what bait would be used to make a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, possessing intelligence and even capable of human speech, bite your small fish hook?
This was unimaginable for Tang San and Tang Hao, and indeed for any Sea Spirit Master.
Yet, this matter came from the mouth of a Peach Garden Academy student.
Tang Hao gasped, his right arm throbbing faintly, as he looked towards the turbulent black sea in the distance, a sense of fear rising in his heart:
How strong is Su Ran now, exactly?
He actually has the courage to do such an astonishing thing!
One must know, even if he encountered that 100,000-year Deep Sea Demon Whale, he could only flee for his life!
He wonders if he can succeed in fishing?
"So, Teacher Su's purpose in taking you out to sea was to fish for a 100,000-year Spirit Beast?"
Tang San asked in surprise.
A 100,000-year Spirit Beast, that was a dream. He himself had a 100,000-year Spirit Bone, so he naturally understood the power a 100,000-year Spirit Beast could bring him.
Tang San also increasingly understood why his father had insisted on keeping Xiao Wu back then.
If he could gain another 100,000-year spirit ring and Spirit Bone, he might have already broken through to level sixty-one.
Hearing Tang San's incessant chatter, Shui Yueer rolled her eyes at him:
"None of your business? Mind your own business first, loser."
Tang San swallowed, his face a little unpleasant, but he didn't dare to flare up.
It was Shui Bing'er who spoke calmly:
"Teacher has his reasons for taking us out to sea, and it's not for us to speculate. Tang San, my Junior Sisters and Senior Sisters don't seem to welcome you, please disembark."
Shui Bing'er made an elegant gesture for Tang San to leave.
Tang San suppressed his anger and said, "I misjudged people before, studying at Shrek, and indeed had some grievances with Peach Garden Academy. However, several years have passed, and I presume Peach Garden Academy is not so petty. Tang San is willing to let bygones be bygones with everyone, how about it?"
"A 100,000-year Spirit Beast is fierce after all. If Teacher Su fails in his fishing and falls into danger, my father and I can also offer assistance."
"Really? Is that true?"
"I think if Teacher falls into danger, you two would be the first to kick him while he's down, wouldn't you?"
Shui Yueer looked at Tang San and Tang Hao suspiciously. Although she had little contact with them, ever since Senior Sister Xiao Wu's mother was resurrected, these sisters had privately discussed other matters concerning Senior Sister Xiao Wu and had no good impression of this Tang San.
"Hmm!" Dugu Yan and Meng Yiran nodded in agreement. Junior Sister Yue'er usually seemed unreliable, but she's surprisingly accurate in judging people!
"How could that be? I, the mighty Clear Sky Douluo, would never do such a despicable and vile thing?" Tang Hao said, crossing his arms, his voice deep.
"Tsk—"
Tang Hao's words were truly laughable.
"Since that is the case, we students of Peach Garden are not rude or vengeful. Since you intend to show goodwill, we should not reject you completely. However, when traveling, we must still listen to Teacher, so…"
Shui Bing'er nodded slightly to Tang Hao and Tang San, neither warm nor cold.
What they said was not without reason. Fishing for a 100,000-year Spirit Beast was not child's play. If Teacher really encountered an accident, it would indeed be difficult for them to rescue him at their current Realm. It would naturally be good to have the help of a Titled Douluo.
Secondly, if Teacher truly was in danger, and they had a falling out, the Tang Hao father and son might turn hostile and attack them, which would also be difficult for her Junior Sisters and Senior Sisters to handle.
This was Shui Bing'er's consideration.
"Understood, I will wait with everyone for Teacher Su's return," Tang San replied.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan and Meng Yiran didn't say much more, understanding Shui Bing'er's meaning, and simply looked silently towards the center of the strange phenomenon in the sea.
After dozens or even hundreds of miles of reduction, the layers of giant waves still rose several meters, even more than ten meters high, by the time they reached Purple Pearl Island, causing the Peach Garden to rock and sway.
Dugu Yan, Meng Yiran, and the other students stood firm, not moving an inch despite the violent rocking.
In contrast, Tang San, who had practiced hammering under a waterfall for several years, couldn't help but grab the railing in front of him to steady himself.
He secretly sighed in his heart: It seems that not only have I made progress in recent years, but the students of Peach Garden Academy have also improved their strength.
As time passed, Zi Zhenzhu, the leader of the pirate group, was also alarmed by the arrival of the Peach Garden.
She was a beautiful woman with a well-proportioned figure, looking about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, with exquisite features and a touch of Western Region charm, and short, stylish purple hair. Standing on the rocks of the island's coast, her amethyst-like large eyes gazed at the Peach Garden:
"Those two fiends boarded this ship?"
"With my many years of sailing experience, a ship of this specification must belong to high-ranking officials and nobles from the continent. If we could plunder it, our pirate group and the nearby fishermen would not have to worry about food and drink."
"No, that's not right? Didn't Heider and his group say they discovered a luxurious white giant ship? The specifications seem similar to this one, could it be…?"
"Captain Heider and his group went to rob this giant ship?!"
"Then this giant ship has come to our Purple Pearl Island, but Captain Heider is nowhere to be seen. Could it be… they are here for revenge?!"
The two captains beside Zi Zhenzhu exclaimed in surprise.
Zi Zhenzhu shook her head:
"No, it shouldn't be. If they were here for revenge, they would have rushed up and started fighting immediately. But they haven't disembarked and are anchored there, which means they are either seeking shelter from a sea disaster or waiting for someone."
"But regardless of the former or the latter, it indicates that that idiot Heider is very likely dead."
"Let those two fiends go communicate. For a Titled Douluo to take them seriously, it means the origin of this giant ship is not simple. We will just wait and see."
Zi Zhenzhu said with concentration.
"As you command, General Captain!"
The other pirate captains cupped their hands. Zi Zhenzhu, a woman, was able to develop her pirate group to this extent under her own name, showing her extraordinary strength and judgment.
It was at this moment.
The fluctuations on the sea surface gradually began to calm down, and the waves became lower and lower.
Finally, a figure in a blue robe slowly walked out from the depths of the ocean, accompanied by an exquisite four-legged small sea beast.
He walked on the surface of the sea, and with each step, he could make the fierce waves bow down, unable to rise, as if he were walking on flat ground, and he also spread ripples of Peach blossom.
The young man's face was incomparably handsome, like a Child of the Ocean, embraced by the sea. The surrounding currents were actually under his control, and his delicate features were like a work of art, as if he had walked out of a sea of poetry.
As soon as he appeared, he attracted everyone's attention. Tang San, Tang Hao, and Zi Zhenzhu couldn't help but cast their gaze upon him, unable to look away for a moment.
However, the young man's face was clouded with sorrow, utterly dejected:
"Teacher!"
"Teacher is fine!"
"Teacher!!!"
Shui Yueer waved at Teacher.
"Teacher, where is the 100,000-year Spirit Beast?! Is it the one beside you?"
Hearing this, the young man's figure moved instantly, arriving in the blink of an eye, and he sighed in disappointment:
"It's not it. My fishing line broke, alas."
