If you want a list of the mirrors, go to:

   <https://www.centos.org/download/mirrors/>


If you want to go to http://mirrorlist.centos.org, then you have to
fill in the parameters that you see in a yum .repo file, e.g.,

   <http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os>

otherwise you do indeed get the "invalid release" response.
