Chapter 781: Chapter 325: Reasonable Release

The audience discussed enthusiastically.

Meanwhile, on the TV screen, Xia Xiaoxue, as the host, was also giving an explanation.

She wore a smile on her face and her tone, vibrant and excited, was incredibly effective in engaging the audience.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what we just witnessed was simply breathtaking, the coordination between the two pikes was like a tacit strategic feast!"

At this, many in the audience couldn’t help but wonder, where was the coordination and tactics?

They hadn’t noticed any, but Xia Xiaoxue was quick to elaborate.

"First of all, the two pikes didn’t seem to be cooperating at the start, instead acting independently, each lunging at an opponent. This, seemingly lacking in tacit understanding, was actually full of it.

The fact that they charged at their adversaries simultaneously, and each chose a different opponent, how could that not be coordinated? They must have had the same idea to act so synchronously.

Subsequently, the smaller pike began fighting the Alligator Gar first. Perhaps this meant nothing to the Nile Perch, but it created an effect, making the Nile Perch aware that it only had to face one opponent: the Big Eel.

As for the other pike and Crocodile Sparrowfish, it didn’t need to worry for the time being.

Since they were busy fighting each other, the Nile Perch would completely underestimate the small pike.

Afterward, the Big Eel, seemingly indifferent to its own safety, adopted a risky strategy of trading blow for blow with the Nile Perch, a move that was both audacious and costly.

Following this exchange, the Big Eel, despite some non-serious injuries, also managed to wound the Nile Perch.

This focused all of the Nile Perch’s attention and anger solely on itself, further ignoring the existence of the small pike.

And then, at that moment, the small pike emerged as an unexpected force, swiftly delivering a lethal blow precisely at the Nile Perch’s wound.

Such an attack is hard to attribute to anything other than premeditation; otherwise, its timing and positioning couldn’t have been so perfect!

The whole process was, I’m afraid, a display of prearranged tacit tactics between the two pikes...."

Xia Xiaoxue’s words left the viewers in front of the television spellbound.

"How is that possible? Are pikes really that intelligent? I couldn’t even come up with such a complex strategy, yet two fish managed to do it!"

"This is the instinct of a natural hunter, simply amazing."

"If someone else said this, I might not believe it, but since it’s coming from the beautiful Xia Xiaoxue, I’m convinced!"

"These aren’t just two fish, they’re tactical masterminds...."

"Today’s program has really been an eye-opener."

The pikes impressed everyone with a highly sophisticated strategy, taking down a Nile Perch, stunning all the viewers.

If not for Xia Xiaoxue’s commentary, many viewers would have been completely unaware of the intricate teamwork involved in the pikes’ fight.

One staged a frontal attack to draw attention, while the other pretended to battle another fish to confuse observations, and then, when the Nile Perch was wounded, at just the right moment, it delivered a fatal strike,

achieving a deadly effect!

At this point, the viewers were left in prolonged astonishment.

After this episode, many people would likely have to reassess their understanding of pikes.

This species of fish proved incredibly clever, far beyond human perception of fish intelligence.

As freshwater creatures, they exhibited a sense of cooperation and deliberately employed strategies, dividing responsibilities tactfully.

Countless viewers couldn’t help but exclaim, never expecting that a fish program could leave them feeling outsmarted.

"Brilliant, who would have thought a pure fish battle show could incorporate a segment of wits and courage, the intelligence of the pikes astonishes me!"

"Is this really just fish? Even mammals may not have such high intellect."

"I would believe it if you told me a Killer Whale had such hunting strategies, but these are pikes, actual fish, not mammals like whales."

"It’s not without reason that pikes are called tigers of the water; strong in body, skilled in technique, and with such remarkable intellect, they’re truly perfect creatures."

While viewers couldn’t stop praising the pikes, the Nile Perch, which had been bitten twice in succession, was in a pitiable state.

It now lay belly up, appearing to be on its last fin.

The two pikes, however, did not press their advantage.

Instead, their attention was focused on the Crocodile Sparrowfish.

They seemed to be well aware that their situation would still be dangerous if they didn’t deal with the Crocodile Sparrowfish.

After all, it was a 150-plus-pound Alligator Gar. Compared to the Nile Perch, its tough hide and scales provided stronger defense, and it had much greater biting power.

It was, arguably, a more formidable opponent.

So the two pikes remained on high alert.

However, the Alligator Gar wasn’t displaying such awareness.

On the contrary, it seemed to have adapted to the aquarium environment and was being spurred on by the scent of blood in the water, igniting its predatory nature.

It followed the scent to the flipped Nile Perch and attacked without hesitation, treating the weakened Nile Perch as its prey.
