When Bei Bei said this, Xu Tianran felt as though a bucket of ice water had been dumped over his head. He was chilled to the bone in an instant.
He predicted my move! He can read minds—he knew what I wanted to do!
At that moment, an inexplicable terror surged up from the depths of Xu Tianran's heart. He did not care about that Rank Nine Soul Guidance Device among the Champion Reward—well, he did care a little.
But compared to that Rank Nine Soul Guidance Device, what frightened him more was the feeling that his thoughts were completely transparent before Bei Bei.
As far as he knew, shortly after he gave the order to seal the city, many of the competing teams he had hoped to capture in one sweep had fled as though they had gotten wind of it.
Even now, only a handful of soul masters were being held in the Water Prison controlled by the Holy Spirit Cult.
If someone leaking news could explain the city lockdown and arrests, then his thought of immediately suspending the tournament and preventing Shrek from claiming the championship again should the Holy Spirit Sect lose had existed only in his mind!
Yet even so, Bei Bei seemed able to read his mind. He knew Xu Tianran's thoughts and had specifically given up on the Grand Finals before the Team Battle, demanding that the awards be presented immediately after the Team Battle. How could Xu Tianran possibly feel at ease?
With a constipated expression, Xu Tianran ordered his subordinates to prepare the final rewards. No matter what, he could not possibly renege on the debt before hundreds of thousands of spectators. The enormous screens on all four sides of the Soul Arena were right there for everyone to see!
