It clamped onto the back of the Big Eel with its mouth, the two fish biting each other, the Big Eel biting into the belly of the Nile Perch while the Nile Perch bit into the back of the pike, neither willing to let go.
However, at this mont, one advantage of the pike beca apparent.
Its teeth and biting force were stronger than those of the Nile Perch, as the perch, most of the ti, doesn’t tear or chew with its mouth or teeth, relying more on its enormous size and mouth to swallow prey whole.
But at present, although it was much larger than the pike, swallowing the pike whole was impossible.
So, as they tore at each other, the Nile Perch found itself at a disadvantage, struggling to inflict any significant damage on the pike’s thick and hard scales.
For several seconds, the two fish kept their grip on each other, rolling over in the water.
This scene left all the spectators dumbfounded.
"This is so thrilling, it’s just like a battle between twin dragons!"
"They’ve clamped onto each other, this is the real clash of the titans."
The head-on confrontation between the Big Eel and Nile Perch, after this round of attacks, it was uncertain who would have the last laugh.
As they bit and rolled around each other in the water, the audience was very nervous.
Because it was not clear who would gain the upper hand in such an exchange, or if both would end up injured.
Even if both were to be injured, that was not an outco the spectators wished to see.
After all, everyone had a sense of national pride, and although it was only a battle between fish, they all wanted to see their native pike win.
It was like experiencing the joy of seeing one’s own country win in a sporting event.
But if the native pike was injured, even if it ultimately won, it would be a bitter victory, with joy spoiled by a hint of disappointnt.
As the two fish continued to tear at each other and the water in the tank, which had been clear, beca increasingly murky.
Upon seeing this, everyone was profoundly shaken.
Because the murky water indicated that at least one fish had blood and bodily fluids mixing into the water.
Everyone was very worried whether the Big Eel was the one that was injured?
anwhile, the water tank was now filled with many twinkling grayish-white scales that made it impossible to distinguish whose they were.
Because the Catfish and Nile Perch were similar in color, both being of a grayish-white hue, so it was unknown to whom the detached scales belonged.
The next mont, the two struggling fish suddenly pulled apart, each speeding away to opposite ends of the tank.
It seed that both had been sufficiently shaken by the confrontation and now both sought to escape the battleground.
Imdiately, the show’s caras provided a close-up shot, targeting each fish in the tank for a detailed capture.
The first thing everyone saw, naturally, was the Big Eel, the one they were more concerned about.
As the cara swept over, it was seen that the Big Eel had so new scratches, but they appeared to be not serious—mostly just so lost scales.
Especially on its back, where more scales were missing, the skin appeared mottled and so of the skin had even been peeled back, which looked rather ghastly under the wash of water.
But upon closer examination, it could be determined that the Big Eel hadn’t sustained serious injuries—its wounds were rely superficial skin damage and so lost scales.
Perhaps for smaller fish, losing a few scales could be dangerous, but for one of such large size, particularly for a fish with such strong vitality, just losing those scales wasn’t considered a significant matter.
Instantly, the mood of the audience improved.
"It doesn’t look too bad, so it seems that the one who got hurt and made the water murky wasn’t the pike."
"Quick, let’s see if the Nile Perch was also injured; if so, this round might have already established a good starting advantage."
At the crowd’s urging, the cara quickly shifted to the Nile Perch.
The close-up shot ticulously captured from front to back, the Nile Perch opening and closing its huge mouth rapidly, breathing heavily.
As the cara moved back, so scales were also seen falling off its body, but this was not a major concern.
But as the cara shifted to the abdon of the Nile Perch, the audience’s attention peaked.
"Look at that wound! The flesh is turned out on the belly where the blood is visible, and you can even see a thick fishbone. This perch has suffered significant damage."
"The pike is mighty!"
Everyone clearly saw the extent of the perch’s injuries.
The Nile Perch had a prominent circular wound on its belly, which was exactly the shape made by the pike’s bite.
And at the deepest part of the wound, the flesh had peeled back, even exposing one of the large bones.
If the Nile Perch hadn’t been so large, with thick skin and big bones for protection, the last bite might have gutted it.
Though it wasn’t gutted, such an injury could still endanger the life of the Nile Perch.
If the battle were to be stopped now and both were returned to their natural habitats, the Big Eel would likely be fine and continue to survive.
But there was a question mark over the Nile Perch.
Because if its wounds were not promptly treated, there was a great risk of infection, and once infected, it could fall prey to death’s grip, slowly losing vitality, ultimately becoming a huge carcass.
