Chapter 319: Chapter 319: We Hope You Don’t Compete

The next day, the Mutant Exchange Competition officially began.

The competition site was set in a deserted area, and the Superpower Alliance of Meili Country, as the host, had already made arrangements for basic infrastructure and material transportation.

The entire competition area covered 400,000 square meters and featured several huge platforms and surrounded by many shops.

There were various food stalls and some stalls selling special souvenirs from Meili Country.

When Lu Xiao and Chen Fei arrived, the area was already bustling, filled with mutants mingling and interacting.

"They made it pretty interesting," Lu Xiao couldn’t help but exclaim.

"They even have hotels," Lu Xiao commented in awe.

This was way more official than the exchange competitions he had attended in the Goo Clan.

In the Goo Clan, the competition required participants to sleep on the mountaintop without even providing tents.

"Let’s go to the registration booth to exchange our participation certificates first," Lu Xiao pointed to a sign nearby and looked at Chen Fei.

Chen Fei nodded, then hooked her arm through Lu Xiao’s.

Soon, the two reached the registration booth.

"Sheet, it’s Lu Xiao!" As soon as they arrived, someone recognized them.

Lu Xiao had an absolutely resounding reputation in the mutant circle.

"This damn guy actually dares to come to our Mutant Exchange Competition!"

"He’s from the Seventeenth Bureau, he can participate too," someone said.

"What kind of mutant is a Heavenly Man!"

"Lu Xiao, you thief, give me my money back!"

"Let’s all gang up on him and kill him; the Civilization Book Club won’t settle bets until tomorrow!"

Once someone instigated this, a number of people began to get excited.

As long as the settlement time hadn’t passed, there was still a chance to turn things around.

If they killed Lu Xiao, the money... would return!

Not only would the betting money return, but there would also be extra gain.

"Right! You all go together and kill Lu Xiao, and it’d be great if you killed Chen Fei, the big shot, alongside him."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, he’s just a Fourth-order Metal Control Mutant. Kill them, kill them all."

"Go on, I support you!"

Hearing the people around them, those who were initially eager to charge felt a chill run down their spines.

Chen... Chen Fei.

That super-master Fourth-order Metal Control Super Tier Mutant.

Fight? Hell, they all together would be marching to their deaths.

Being Fourth-tier was already invincible to them, and among them, Chen Fei was an invincible existence.

"Is Chen Fei, the big boss, actually Lu Xiao’s girlfriend?"

"Fack, my money is gone."

"In Hua Country there’s Liuli Hong, and outside Hua Country, there’s Chen Fei. Lu Xiao, are you even a man? Can’t you protect yourself without others?"

"Forget it, my ten million US dollars lost is lost; I’ll earn it all back in this competition, with interest!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

As for killing Lu Xiao, forget about it.

With what would they kill him? Their own lives...

"Let’s exchange the participation certificates." When it was Lu Xiao’s turn, he handed over the electronic registration form to the staff at the site.

After entering the serial number, the printer started working.

Soon, two participation certificates were printed out.

"Lu Xiao, Third Stage Heavenly Man, Master Group, participation number 088."

"Chen Fei, Fourth-stage Mutant, Master Group, participation number 089."

The staff announced the basic information of the two participants.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the surroundings erupted into noise.

"Chen Fei, the big boss is also competing? Doesn’t that mean the championship in the Master Group is guaranteed?"

"Metal Control, eh... There are so many cars here... no one can beat that."

"Lu Xiao is also in the Master Group? Fack, are they rigging this? What if Lu Xiao makes it to the finals, and then Chen Fei intentionally loses, it’s too scary to even think about."

"Lu Xiao making it to the finals, what are you talking about? Do you think the hosts are idiots? Knowing the relationship between Lu Xiao and Chen Fei, even if Lu Xiao made it to the semifinals, his opponent would definitely be Fourth-tier."

"Right."

"Let’s go, let’s go, I’m going to place ten million on big boss Chen Fei winning."

The crowd rapidly thinned out, all rushing to the betting stations.

"The Master Group competition starts at three in the afternoon, please pay attention to the time," the staff reminded Lu Xiao and Chen Fei.

"Okay," Lu Xiao responded.

After getting their participation certificates, Lu Xiao led Chen Fei away from the registration booth.

However, as soon as they walked out of the booth, they saw Edson approaching.

"Major Edson, you seem quite free." Lu Xiao greeted Edson, knowing well that Edson must have intentionally come over because of Chen Fei’s participation in the Master Group competitions.

With Chen Fei competing, the suspense in the Master Group was practically dead.

Without suspense, how could the betting market make money?

The Superpower Alliance had put up such a big show, they had to recoup their costs and profit from it.

If they couldn’t make money, what’s the point of organizing an exchange competition.

Edson didn’t respond to Lu Xiao but instead looked directly at Chen Fei.

"Miss Chen Fei, for this exchange, our Superpower Alliance hopes that you won’t participate," Edson stated directly.

Chen Fei coldly glanced at Edson, "Are you... threatening me?"

Feeling the immense oppressive aura emanating from Chen Fei, a murderous look flashed in the depths of Edson’s eyes.

The Superpower Alliance was highly constrained as long as this woman was alive.

Especially considering Chen Fei’s relationship with Lu Xiao. Even though Chen Fei hadn’t joined the Seventeenth Bureau, she definitely sided with Lu Xiao, which essentially meant siding with the Seventeenth Bureau.

With Liuli Hong in the Seventeenth Bureau and Chen Fei backing them, how the hell were we supposed to operate.

"What about it, Mr. Edson? Do you want to test whether your so-called Eternal Barrier can stop me?" Chen Fei’s presence grew stronger, and she no longer suppressed her mutant ability.

The palpable tension made everyone around turn their attention their way.

Many people even took out their phones to start recording.

Everyone knew Edson, the Fourth-stage Mutant of the Superpower Alliance, with an Earth Attribute and the nickname Eternal Barrier.

Rumor had it that Edson’s defensive abilities could withstand all bombings below a nuclear attack.

And Chen Fei, a Fourth-order Metal Control Mutant, possessed a super-level mutant ability that was terrifyingly powerful.

"Whoa, are they about to fight?"

"The guts on the Superpower Alliance!"

"I bet Edson is going to get blown away..."

"I’m not so sure, Chen Fei is only a newly minted Fourth-tier; her experience is too shallow."
