Chapter 390 Don't Blame Others When You Die

On that afternoon, the assessment of reaction speed and endurance ended without any surprises.

Lachlan scored a total of 360 points, ranking twentieth overall!

In fact, except for the defense assessment, Lachlan's performance in other areas was very ordinary - just average. However, his score of 120 in defense pushed him up in rank.

Savannah's ranking was no surprise; she easily made it into the top ten. This meant that the Graham family had finally secured their position as one of Ancient Martial Arts Alliance's prestigious families.

After Isabel announced everyone's rankings and the list of eliminated participants on stage following the last endurance test, both Savannah and Sophie were beaming with joy.

"Landon, thank you! Really..." Sophie grabbed Lachlan's hand with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Hmph, you're somewhat useful," Savannah bit her lip and snorted at Lachlan.

"No need to thank me. I didn't help for nothing, did I?" Lachlan replied calmly.

Indeed, he remained composed and couldn't feel the relief Sophie and Savannah were experiencing.

At this moment, Isabel on the high platform shouted, "Quiet!" and then raised her voice, "You're fortunate that this time your family hasn't lost its qualification in the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance..."

As she spoke, Isabel's gaze turned towards Lachlan, Savannah, and Sophie.

Indeed, if any family was most likely to be expelled from the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance, it was the Graham family.

Next, Isabel said some uninformative summary words.

Finally, her tone changed and she said, "Tomorrow, the individual ranking trial of this Clan Grand Competition will take place! The rules of the trial were distributed to everyone at noon today, but I still want to reiterate a few things here."

"The individual ranking trial is voluntary. At that time, participants will enter the Hudpids Sect's Sacred Medicine Valley to collect herbs. The ranking will be based on the quantity and quality of the herbs collected."

"I must emphasize that this ranking trial comes with opportunities and dangers."

"Although the previous tests also had competition, the participants didn't engage in actual fights. Unless they courted death, there was no real danger to their lives."

"However, the individual ranking trial is different. When you enter the Sacred Medicine Valley, participants are allowed to snatch from and even fight each other."

"So, whether or not to participate, everyone should consider it carefully."

"Of course, with great risks come great rewards!"

"All the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures collected by the participants in the end will be their own. In addition, the top five will receive special rewards."

"As for what the rewards are, let me keep it a secret for now and reveal it to the participants who choose to compete tomorrow!"

"Think it over tonight."

After finishing her speech, Isabel announced the dispersal.

When they returned to their respective temporary residences, Lachlan asked Sophie with some anticipation, "Sophie, when do we receive the resources each family obtains every year? And where?"

Upon hearing this, Sophie couldn't help but chuckle, while Savannah rolled her eyes, "Look at you, so impatient! Those cultivation resources aren't received here. Each family sends representatives to the headquarters of the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance in the secular world to collect them."

Lachlan frowned upon hearing this.

He could sense that his strength was only a hair's breadth away from breaking through to the Core Formation Realm.

He would definitely participate in tomorrow's individual ranking trial.

Advancing his strength further would give him more confidence!

"So troublesome!"

Hearing that he wouldn't be able to obtain those cultivation resources now, a tinge of disappointment appeared on Lachlan's face.

Savannah snorted and cast a disdainful glance at Lachlan.

It seemed that she had a low opinion of his impatience.

Sophie smiled and didn't say anything, then turned to Savannah and asked, "Callum, do you want to participate in tomorrow's individual ranking trial?"

Savannah nodded, a determined look in her beautiful eyes. "Of course!"

"But it will be dangerous. It's already good enough that our family has preserved its qualification this time. Are you willing to take the risk?" Sophie expressed her concern.

A trace of pride emerged on Savannah's pretty face. "Sophie, the path of cultivation is filled with hardships and dangers. Should we give up opportunities just because we fear danger?"

This talented young girl from the Graham family, besides her exceptional talent, was also an extremely diligent cultivator. Otherwise, she wouldn't have reached the late peak of Uppecia at her age.

Hearing this, Lachlan couldn't help but look at this girl in a new light. "That's quite bold of you to say."

Savannah's face turned cold upon hearing his words, showing a hint of annoyance as she gritted her teeth and scolded Lachlan, "Get lost! How dare you speak like that? What do you mean by 'quite bold'? Can't you acknowledge a woman's strength?"

"In any case, I'm better than a useless person like you! I'm afraid you don't have the courage to participate in tomorrow's individual ranking trial, do you?" she continued, a mocking expression appearing on her face. owns this text.

However, Lachlan remained calm and said, "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I will participate!"

Upon hearing this, both Savannah and Sophie were surprised for a moment, and then they showed an expression of astonishment.

"What did you say? You're also going to participate?" Savannah asked in shock, then her tone changed. "I was just trying to provoke you earlier, don't act impulsively because of me! If you participate with your current strength, won't it be suicidal?"

Sophie also advised, "Yes! This ranking trial doesn't restrict fighting and killing. Forget about others, that guy Arlo from the Hernandez family will probably target you. Landon, don't take the risk! If something happens to you here, how can our family explain it to your family?"

Lachlan smiled and thought to himself, what family am I supposed to have?

"I'm not acting impulsively or out of anger! Just like you said earlier, how can the path of cultivation fear danger?"

Savannah's beautiful eyes flickered a few times as she said expressionlessly, "You're not expecting me to protect you, are you? Don't blame me for not clarifying in advance. The situation could be complicated, and I might not be able to protect myself. You'd better not rely on me for help."

With a smile, Lachlan replied, "Don't worry, I'm not relying on anyone!"

Savannah's voice paused for a moment, then she coldly chuckled, "Well, it's up to you then! If you die, don't blame others."
