Enemies really were bound to cross paths.
Perhaps this was what both Chen Ping and Ju Zi were thinking at that moment.
The instant their eyes met, they fixed their gazes squarely on each other.
Even though they longed to kill the other, their expressions remained civil, bearing smiles that could not have been more fake.
To Ju Zi, even tearing Chen Ping into ten thousand pieces would not have been excessive, after he had twice ruined her road to the heavens.
To Chen Ping, seeing this empress war god climb to the position of Crown Prince's Consort despite suffering so many setbacks made the killing intent he had suppressed flare up again.
"Student Chen, here is your reward for this tournament."
Ju Zi turned her hand over and took out the championship prize for this tournament.
There was a considerable difference in grade between a Storage Soul Tool capable of holding a Level 8 Soul Tool and one capable of holding a Level 9 Soul Tool, and their values were worlds apart.
Naturally, the Sun Moon Empire could not let Chen Ping pick up another high-grade piece of storage equipment for free along the way.
What Ju Zi held was a golden sphere a full ten centimeters in diameter, looking rather like a bowling ball.
The sphere's surface was encased in a metal shell engraved with intricate core arrays, with some portions enclosed and others featuring an openwork design, giving it a certain resemblance to a Devil's Work Ball.
The moment He Caitou and Huo Yuhao saw it, their jaws nearly dropped clean off. What the hell was that?!
It was not that the two of them did not recognize this Soul Tool. Quite the opposite: they were all too familiar with this Defensive Soul Tool!
Precisely for that
