Additional context

bazelbuild/bazel#12887 and bazelbuild/bazel#11694 may be helpful for this problem.
It works again after I upgrade gRPC to 1.36.4(gRPC 1.32.0 is the first version to use protobuf 3.13.0 or upper) and remove load("@upb//bazel:build_defs.bzl", "bazel_version_repository") and bazel_version_repository(name = "upb_bazel_version") from the WORKSPACE .
I'm not sure if I should create a PR to update gRPC and remove upb?

Thanks for reporting the issue. It's definitely good to upgrade to newer grpc version. The earlier used version 1.28.0 is one year old. Also, would be good idea to test against same grpc version for both cmake and bazel:

closing as we have upgraded both bazel and gRPC.
