Supreme Vision Master Chapter 1196: Southern Domain, Elder Pan?

With such terrifying combat ability, even opponents of superior cultivation could be challenged!

Furthermore, as their martial strength ascended, this capacity for cross-rank combat grew even more formidable!

For in the path of cultivation, the greater the height attained, the more a disparity in power becomes an unbridgeable chasm!

Yet, Luo Qingtong possessed the means to narrow this gulf with her prowess in battling those of higher cultivation, allowing her own insufficient power to confront even stronger adversaries!

To all other cultivators present, this spectacle was utterly astounding and deeply frightening!

As the surrounding crowd gazed upon Luo Qingtong with expressions of shock, she slowly rose to her feet. Addressing the members of the Cheng Family, who now wore faces etched with apprehension, she declared, "Very well! The literary contest has concluded!"

"It is time for you to honor your wager!"

Luo Qingtong's words served as a stark reminder that the Cheng Family had not only engaged in a literary duel with Tianxie but had also appended a side bet.

And the nature of this particular wager...

All gazes turned to the Cheng Family members, their countenances paling, their glances towards Luo Qingtong and her companions filled with palpable dread.

At this critical juncture, a screaming Elder from the Cheng Family suddenly seized a younger member standing nearby. He then propelled himself up, bellowing furiously at Luo Qingtong and the others, "Insolent brats, do not presume you can simply dismiss us!"

"So what if you triumphed in the literary duel? Today, not a single soul from your Tianxie faction will depart this Dark Arena alive!"

The Elder representing the Cheng Family wore a visage of pure ferocity.

His eyes had devolved into twin bloody sockets, lending him a truly horrifying appearance.

The veins on the forehead of the Cheng Family Elder bulged prominently. He then abruptly threw his head back, letting out a powerful call towards a specific private chamber situated in the second-floor viewing area, "Elder Pan!"

"I implore you to intervene against the Tianxie members! As we previously arranged! All profits accrued by the Cheng Family within the Extreme West Wilderness over the years shall be yours!"

As the Cheng Family Elder's voice echoed through the arena, every spectator's attention immediately shifted towards the second-floor box.

A collective memory surfaced: the Cheng Family had secured powerful backing for this confrontation against Tianxie!

The literary duel, it seemed, was merely a pretense, a tactic designed to humiliate their rivals!

Even though they had lost the duel, as long as the Elder from the Southern Domain Sect who supported them remained present, the Cheng Family would emerge unscathed!

Indeed, if any trouble were to arise, it would likely befall the Tianxie faction!

After all, an Elder from a Southern Domain Sect possessed not only formidable personal strength but also commanded the influence of a highly significant sect within the Extreme West Wilderness.

Upon hearing the Cheng Family Elder's desperate plea, Su Yu and the others exchanged uneasy glances.

"Master..."

Su Yu took a step forward, intending to voice his concerns, but was gently halted by Luo Qingtong.

"It is of no consequence."

Luo Qingtong lifted her gaze, her eyes fixing upon the secluded room within the second-floor box. "A Southern Domain Sect Elder?"

"How exceedingly interesting."

"And there are two individuals from the Southern Domain beside him!"

"What's more... they are no ordinary denizens of the Southern Domain."

Luo Qingtong's expression remained remarkably composed.

Within the confines of the second-floor box, as the Cheng Family Elder's summons reached his ears, a figure promptly erupted from the room.

It was a remarkably diminutive individual, appearing as a dwarf-like elder.

He sprang forth from the second-floor box, his gaze now fixed upon Luo Qingtong and her companions.

"Hmph, I shall personally ensure the protection of the Cheng Family! As for all you Tianxie members, be gone with you!"
