Chapter 605 Last Minute Comeback
Chapter 605 Last Minute Comeback
As time passed, more and more people passed the test. With half an hour left, Lachlan and Fiona still had hundreds of steps to climb!
At this point, Fiona's pretty face was extremely flushed, and large beads of sweat kept rolling down.
Not only was there pressure on the ladder, but there was also immense pressure from the numerous seniors and assessment disciples on the mountaintop.
"Lachlan, why don't you go up first."
"I might fail, I can't drag you down!"
Although Fiona said this, her steps were still extremely difficult as she ascended another step.
Huff, huff!
As soon as she reached this step, Fiona began to breathe heavily, her expression filled with pain.
Seeing her like this, Lachlan couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
Fiona was already amazing! Ten minutes ago, she was almost at her limit, and yet she still persisted through hundreds of steps.
This kind of perseverance was already commendable.
Thinking of this, Lachlan lightly smiled and said to Fiona, "Fiona, I believe you can do it."
"Also, please believe in me, I can definitely take you to the mountaintop."
"Okay?"
Hearing Lachlan's gentle words, Fiona felt a surge of strength welling up inside her once again.
After glancing at Lachlan, she quickly nodded solemnly and continued to lift her feet towards the top.
At this point, there were few people left on the ladder. They were either close to the mountaintop or despairing and giving up because they were far from their goal.
Only Lachlan and Fiona were still persevering!
In the last ten minutes, they were only five hundred steps away from the top!
"Hehe, these last five hundred steps are the hardest in the entire ladder! Fiona definitely won't be able to make it!"
"Lachlan is also foolish. Clearly, he has the strength but insists on being with Fiona. He's probably going to be dragged down by her."
"Who cares, having two fewer competitors isn't bad for us!"
The disciples who had already passed on the mountaintop had their eyes on Lachlan and Fiona. They could also see that Lachlan seemed to be much more relaxed compared to Fiona. "Kyrie, what do you think?"
At this moment, Sullivan frowned and asked Kyrie.
Of course, he was referring to how Lachlan and the others would pass this first assessment. After all, in his eyes, Fiona's chances of passing were somewhat slim.
"I think Lachlan will definitely surprise us."
Kyrie was very confident in Lachlan and said with a faint smile.
Oh?
Sullivan was somewhat surprised by Kyrie's confidence. His gaze couldn't help but turn towards Lachlan and Fiona below.
At this point, Fiona was indeed in bad shape. The flush on her face had turned pale, and her legs trembled with every step.
If it weren't for Lachlan accompanying her all along, Fiona would probably have given up long ago.
"One last minute! Please hurry up!"
At this moment, the Enforcement Hall disciples next to them reminded Lachlan with complex expressions.
Whether it was Lachlan's perseverance or Fiona's resilience, it filled them with admiration.
If Lachlan got stuck at this first stage, they would be very regretful, especially since they had just explained the matter to the Head of the Enforcement Hall. "Lachlan... I can't hold on anymore!"
"I... I'm sorry..."
Fiona felt her vision blur, and as the voice of the Enforcement Hall disciple rang out, her originally steadfast heart collapsed!
With just over three hundred steps left, unless she ran through them all in one breath, there was no way she could pass!
And she obviously didn't have the strength for that. Her biggest wish now was not to drag Lachlan down.
Hahaha!
Ryan at the mountaintop burst into laughter at this moment, his eyes full of mockery.
"These last three hundred steps, even if it were me, it would take more than ten minutes to pass!"
"In the last minute, they can't possibly make it!"
"Fiona is finished! Lachlan is finished too! After I enter the Broken Pulse Sect, I will be an existence they can't reach!"
At this moment, Ryan's eyes were filled with a sinister gleam as he began to envision the wonderful life awaiting him after entering the sect. The despair in Lachlan's and the Morrison family's eyes would surely be a delightful sight.
Not only him, but all the assessment disciples at the mountaintop shared the same sentiment. Many shook their heads, no longer intending to watch.
The outcome was already decided!
"Fiona, you did great."
Just then, Lachlan's voice rang out again, exuding a comforting power.
"Leave the rest to me."
As Lachlan's voice fell, he suddenly reached out and patted Fiona's body several times. Then, taking a deep breath, he grabbed Fiona's waist and began to sprint upward with large strides!

And Lachlan's scent... it smelled really good...
For some reason, this thought popped into Fiona's mind, and her face turned crimson as her heart raced.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lachlan's speed was extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, he directly crossed over hundreds of steps, and his speed continued to increase, rushing towards the mountaintop at an astonishing pace.
"Hiss! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"How can he be so relaxed, and still carrying a person!"
"The first stage of the ladder test relies on physical fitness alone, without using any true energy. How did he manage to do it!"
"I don't believe it, this scene is simply absurd!"
A commotion erupted at the mountaintop! Everyone widened their eyes, their expressions filled with disbelief!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
At this moment, Lachlan was still quite far from the others, but in almost the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of them.
Snap!
He gently set Fiona down, then smiled lightly at her and said, "Fiona, we've passed the test smoothly."
Silence! A deathly silence!
From the start of the last-minute countdown to when Lachlan started moving, twenty seconds had passed!
And now, reaching the mountaintop, there were only a dozen seconds left until the end!
In other words, Lachlan had completed the last, most difficult three hundred steps in less than thirty seconds! And he was carrying a girl!
This wasn't just astonishing anymore-it was terrifying!
How terrifying was this guy's physical strength?
"Unfair! Lachlan blatantly violated the rules!"
"I protest!"
