Chapter 332: Plenty of Great Wu Martial Techniques

Wu Tong simply couldn’t understand why his third brother, Wu Ying, was working against him.

Wu Caicai representing Dragon Flame Academy in the tournament of the three academies meant making enemies of the Great Wu Empire and the Nanye Dynasty. By accepting the Thousand Illusions Cloud-Stepping Leg, Wu Ying was offending the Great Wu Empire.

Wu Tong refused to believe his third brother was unaware of this. ’He’s doing it on purpose.’

Suddenly, Wu Ying shrugged again and looked back at Lu Chao...

"My eldest brother seems to think one manual for the Thousand Illusions Cloud-Stepping Leg isn’t enough."

"How about this..."

"Lu Chao, why don’t you bring out some more good stuff? Let me buy it all, and I’ll make my eldest brother stop working with Lu Dingtian. How about it?"

At this, Wu Ying gazed at Lu Chao, his face full of anticipation.

His meaning was clear...

If Lu Chao brought out more treasures, he could get his eldest brother to cut ties with Lu Dingtian. In other words, he would use more tempting items to make his eldest brother, Wu Tong, abandon his current course and support the Dragon Flame Kingdom instead.

As for Lu Chao, he couldn’t help but laugh again...

’It seems Wu Ying already knows my identity as the True Lu Chao of Great Wu,’ he thought. ’So he genuinely wants to stop Wu Tong from working with Lu Dingtian. He must think I have a better chance of taking Lu Dingtian down.’

’As for how Wu Ying found out?’

’He was one of the former Three Greats of Dragon Flame Academy, known as the Bone-Breaking Madman. Yin Ye, another of the Three Greats, must have been the one to tell him.’

’Of course, Wu Ying’s greed is also very real.’

’He’s just using this as a chance to get more Martial Techniques from the Great Wu Empire and other things from me.’

Lu Chao didn’t have to think twice about it. He spoke directly.

"No problem. This is one of Great Wu’s top ten Martial Techniques, the Martial Lock Sword. This is another, the Broken Rock Extreme Cloud Spear. And this one is the Thunder Warhammer."

Lu Chao immediately tossed out three Martial Technique Secret Manuals from his Storage Ring.

As he threw them, everyone—aside from those who knew his true identity—was utterly stunned.

Lu Hanyang, who had just drawn near, looked as if his eyes were about to pop out of his head. Disbelief was written all over his face.

Wu Ying caught them one after another. Once all three Martial Technique Secret Manuals were in his hands, his face bloomed into a wide grin.

But he still had to confirm whether they were real, so he quickly began flipping through them.

It only took him a few breaths to confirm their authenticity. He then looked at Wu Tong and Wu Ye. "Eldest Brother, Second Brother, is this enough for you?"

At Wu Ying’s words, Wu Tong and Wu Ye’s eyes went wide...

But Wu Yiyi couldn’t stop herself from speaking up, her voice cold. "Third Uncle, if it were only the Thousand Illusions Cloud-Stepping Leg, it might have been believable. But now you’ve produced three of Great Wu’s top ten Martial Techniques. Do you really think we’d fall for that?"

As her voice faded, many people came to their senses. That was right, the Fake Lu Chao couldn’t possibly possess these things...

Wu Yiyi took a step forward and continued, "Besides, I can see these four Secret Manuals are all brand new. I’ll bet the Fake Lu Chao made them himself just to fool everyone, right?"

Hearing this, many people also stared at the Secret Manuals in Wu Ying’s hands. They did indeed look brand new.

Secret Manuals were supposed to look ancient and worn.

However, Lu Chao just shrugged...

"They are. I transcribed them into new, blank manuals myself."

"The tournament of the three academies is about to begin. Of course I want the students of the Beast Flame Outer Courtyard to study the Martial Techniques of the Great Wu Empire."

This was the absolute truth. A while back, Lu Chao had reproduced nearly everything he had ever learned from the Great Wu Empire.

It was, of course, so that Luo Wendeng and the others could study and learn from them...

This was to counter the students of the Great Wu Imperial Academy, and also to see if Luo Wendeng and the others could find any suitable techniques to cultivate themselves.

After a brief pause, Lu Chao also looked at Wu Tong...

"Eldest Master Wu, you called my Wolf King Sword Mountain Sword rubbish. So, let me ask, are four of the Great Wu Empire’s top ten Martial Techniques enough to have Miss Caicai join my Dragon Flame Academy?"

"If not, I have more right here. I have plenty of the Great Wu Empire’s Martial Techniques."

As Lu Chao spoke, Wu Tong and Wu Ye slowly began to sneer...

Lu Chao said it as if it were the truth, but it just sounded more and more fake. He actually claimed to have written the Secret Manuals himself.

They were now starting to think that their third brother, Wu Ying, wasn’t just obsessed with money, but was deliberately helping the Fake Lu Chao. After all, their third brother had been a student at Dragon Flame Academy and was even known as one of the Three Greats, alongside Sun Shijin and Yin Ye.

That must be why he wanted to help Dragon Flame Academy.

Perhaps the Dragon Flame Kingdom had promised him immense benefits.

With this in mind, Wu Ye ignored Lu Chao and said coolly, "Third Brother, the Dragon Flame Kingdom has no future. You shouldn’t be working with them. No matter what they promise, they’ll never be able to deliver. It’s not too late to turn back."

He was directly accusing Wu Ying of having been promised something by the Dragon Flame Kingdom.

Wu Tong added, "Third Brother, throw that junk away, and bring me Wu Caicai and that woman. If you do, I, your eldest brother, will forgive you for this and won’t hold it against you..."

He also wore an expression that urged him to turn back before it was too late.

The atmosphere turned tense at their words. All eyes focused on Wu Ying, including Wu Caicai and her mother.

At this point, aside from those from Dragon Flame Academy...

...or rather, the people from the Beast Flame Outer Courtyard, no one believed Lu Chao’s four Secret Manuals were authentic.

Slowly, Wu Ying broke the silence with another laugh. "Ah, Lu Chao, it seems my eldest brother doesn’t trust me. He even thinks I’m on the Dragon Flame Kingdom’s payroll. Shouldn’t you say a few words to clear my name, and while you’re at it, prove that your Martial Techniques are real?"

Lu Chao nodded slightly. "Senior Wu Ying, please give the four Secret Manuals to me for a moment."

Wu Ying complied, tossing the Secret Manuals straight back to Lu Chao.

After catching them, Lu Chao spoke softly, "I will now prove to all of you that when I, Lu Chao, do business, I am honest with everyone, young and old alike."

Everyone, including Wu Tong and Wu Ye, stared intently at the masked Lu Chao...

What was he going to do? How would he prove it? Was he going to perform all the techniques himself?

Of course not. If Lu Chao intended to demonstrate them himself, he wouldn’t have needed the four Secret Manuals back.

He simply took the manuals and walked, step by step, toward Lu Hanyang...

Lu Hanyang shuddered and said coldly, "Fake Lu Chao, what do you want?"

Lu Hanyang’s mind was in turmoil. Gone was his superior attitude; instead, his voice was tinged with fear...

Lu Chao stopped just in front of him, then tossed the four Secret Manuals over. "Second Brother, someone doubts that my things are fake. Now, you can prove it for me, your elder brother."

The voice from under the mask, a voice so familiar it couldn’t be more so, made Lu Hanyang’s heart pound in his chest.

But he quickly calmed himself. He also desperately wanted to know if these four Secret Manuals were real. ’If they are...’

’Impossible!’

Lu Hanyang roared frantically in his heart. Finally, he flipped open the first Secret Manual. A single glance was all it took... "AH!"

He let out a wild scream and threw the Secret Manual away. He stumbled back several steps, his finger trembling wildly as he pointed at Lu Chao, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.
