I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

If that foreign object really was a Parasitic Soul Egg, then he could be spiritually parasitized at any moment. He was, indeed, in constant danger.

’Could the King of Mu be behind this egg?’

Su Ze couldn’t help but make the connection.

All this time, he had been uncertain whether the King of Mu had been possessed by an alien, because he hadn’t absorbed a Bloodline Crystal.

But if he hadn’t been possessed by an alien, it was highly unlikely he would have mastered the use of a Parasitic Soul Egg.

This was also why Su Ze had never really suspected the King of Mu.

’Once I kill the King of Mu, I’ll know if he was behind it...’ Su Ze stopped dwelling on it. Even if Mu Country was a dragon’s lair and a tiger’s den, he was fated to go there.

And he was pondering something else... ’Could I get Chen Suifeng to help me deal with the King of Mu?’

’If a Venerable Powerhouse like him made a move, it should be a sure thing... right?’

...

The day after Mr. Ya arrived, the entire Lin Hua Continent was abuzz with promotions for the Three-Continent Overlord Tournament.

This wasn’t just within Lin Hua Country; even the Six Nations were scrambling to report on this unprecedented grand event.

In an instant, the enthusiasm of the entire population of Lin Hua Continent was ignited by this news.

First of all, they had never seen a tournament at the overlord level. To most people, overlords were towering figures far beyond their reach. Now, they could actually watch them compete on a stage—the novelty and excitement were unparalleled.

Secondly, the other two parties participating in this tournament were from the other two major human settlements. The people of Lin Hua Continent knew that such places existed but knew very little about them. The participation of the Flame Emperor Continent and the Snowfield Continent thoroughly piqued their curiosity.

The news of the exchange tournament had only just been released, but it was already causing a massive stir throughout Lin Hua Continent, with excitement reaching an all-time high.

Amidst all the public discussion, the contestants from the Snowfield Continent and Flame Emperor Continent finally arrived in the capital of Lin Hua Country.

For this exchange tournament, each continent had a maximum of four contestant slots. However, perhaps due to the long journey and the fact that only the top three would receive rewards, there was no point in bringing too many people.

Thus, both the Snowfield Continent and the Flame Emperor Continent had only sent two contestants each.

After all, each continent had a rough idea of the strength of the geniuses in their own territories. It was enough to bring their two strongest. Insisting on four would just mean bringing along extras to fill the roster, which was unnecessary.

As the host, Lin Hua Continent had the home-field advantage and naturally filled all four of its slots.

Su Ze and Mr. Ya took two of the spots. Su Ze didn’t know the other two contestants.

That evening, Chen Suifeng returned to the villa and placed a file in front of Su Ze.

Inside was basic information on all the contestants in the exchange tournament.

Su Ze casually flipped through it a couple of times before tossing it aside.

Then, Chen Suifeng took out about ten different evolution materials. He had helped Su Ze redeem them from the Lin Hua Country national treasury.

Su Ze gave the materials a quick scan and immediately understood. ’Looks like upgrading my other three un-upgraded skills is now a sure thing.’

”Thank you, Mr. Fen! You’re amazing!” he said, gleefully accepting all the materials.

Chen Suifeng said, ”You’ll need to hand over that Bloodline Crystal, too. The representatives from the Snowfield and Flame Emperor Continents are clamoring to see it. They’re afraid we’re trying to trick them.”

Su Ze decisively took out the Bloodline Crystal and handed it to Chen Suifeng, but he still added a warning, ”Just keep this with you. Don’t let it pass through anyone else’s hands, especially not those guys who’ve been possessed by aliens.”

Su Ze had gone through a lot of trouble to have the Mother Tree help him remove the remnant soul from the Bloodline Crystal. He didn’t want the aliens to taint it with some other filth.

”Don’t worry, I won’t hand it over to anyone else. As an organizer of this tournament, I at least have the authority to hold onto the prize.”
