Jiang Hao spent the first three days of the fishing competition preparing nets and gear instead of fishing, then used a homemade bone lure and a barbed hook to catch Snow Spirit Fish.

• Gongsun Qianxun said she did not like fat boys, so Chubby decided to lose weight and refused roast chicken; Wen Ruxue’s comment about liking a little meat on someone’s bones made Song Jie consider gaining weight.

While Jiang Hao’s team prepared food for the next stage of the Beast Pet Tournament, the chapter shifted to the siege of the City of Eternity, where Xiao Lin led the North Sea Army against the Shenzhou defenders.
