When the story of the Wei Wu Army reached the palace, everyone treated it as an interesting piece of news that had nothing to do with them . After all, a long time had passed since the last battle in the palace .

The war between the North Region and the West Region had started to spread throughout the Luniverse . The strength that the Black Feather Army had displayed on a strategic level made everyone interested .

But the same Black Feather Army was helpless against a small army made up of leftover soldiers .

When those who knew about the situation talked about the Wei Wu Army, they would say, “The Wei Wu Army was originally an army made up of roamers . People in the North Region would know that they are very disorganized, but no one expected them to defeat the Black Feather Army with just 3000 people . These roamers do not dare to fight . They can only run away on the battlefield . I don’t know how they became so strong . ”

As for how weak the Wei Wu Army was in the past, everyone could easily paint a vivid picture of them . It was as if the weaker they described the Wei Wu Army as, the more dramatic this war would become .

This was because the war had nothing to with them . Thus, whether the war was right or wrong, as well as the victories and losses, were not important to them . Most importantly, none of this was important to them!

The poems of the king was mostly read by the sons and daughters of rich aristocrats . As they read the poems of the king, they would pose as lovers of culture while admiring the fortresses . Very few people had actually been on a battlefield .

In order to attract these rich customers, storytellers in teahouses and wine shops would talk about the hottest topics .

In the largest wine shop in the palace, an old man sat on the stage and stroked his beard . “The leader of the Wei Wu Army, Ye Xiaoming, held his halberd…”

“No, you’re wrong!” A young girl suddenly stood up . “My uncle went to the North Region last month . He received news from the Black Feather Army that the leader of the Wei Wu Army is now a young man with the surname Lu! Furthermore, during the battle, he didn’t use any halberd!”

The storytelling became very awkward . People who fabricated and exaggerated stories were most afraid that the audience would know the facts of the situation . How could a small storyteller like him go to the battlefield and do his research there?

Under typical circumstances, the children in the palace would not know about these kinds of things . The aristocrats in the palace would not care about the small Wei Wu Army . Thus, their children did not have any sources of information .

But this time, people cared about the situation, as the protagonist of the story, the Wei Wu Army, was worthy of dramatic action . It even became the laughing stock of the aristocrats .

The storyteller hesitated . “To this young lady who dared to ask, what did you hear? Lu is a common surname here . Do you know his actual name?”

“I don’t know his full name, but I know that he only fights using a tree branch!” The young girl said in a grand manner, “I heard that the young man is good looking and has achieved a high level of training . He is not like the geniuses in the place at all . They still have a bloodline!”

The children of the palace, who were observing by the side, were unhappy . How was the leader of the broken Wei Wu Army on the same level as them, the children of the palace… it was said that he was very good looking? How good looking could you be when you fought?”

Furthermore, it was said that he only used a tree branch to fight . If this was real, then he was very pretentious .

There were countless geniuses in the palace who were pretentious . But the leader of the Wei Wu Army was the first to be as pretentious as to use a tree branch to fight . Did you think that you were the head of the Sword Hut?

Overnight, all the storytellers in the palace changed their story . Lu Shu changed from a mighty warrior in an army to a figure with poetic flavor .

In the same night, the young ladies in the palace started to wish for this young man . On the other hand, the males in the palace were all very unhappy with Lu Shu . If he came to the palace, they would teach him how to behave!

Suddenly, there was a new bet in the palace casino . They bet whether the Wei Wu Army would be able to survive being surrounded by the Black Feather Army, how long the Wei Wu Army would be able to survive, and how many Black Feather Army soldiers the Wei Wu Army would be able to kill .

There were all kinds of bets . Of course, the bookmakers decided the odds .

At first, the news of the Wei Wu Army was only viral for a few days . But with these bets, it started to grow even more viral .

The casino started to spread how weak the Wei Wu Army was, and how they had defeated the Black Feather Army by luck . After a large group of people placed their bets, they started to focus on news regarding the Wei Wu Army .

They did not care about how strong or weak the Wei Wu Army actually was . They only cared about whether they won or lost the bet .

Money talked . In order to ride on the viral wave, many casinos sent their Rank One powers as scouts to obtain information at the same time . Then, they sent back magical objects with witchcraft in real time . The casinos then changed the odds accordingly .

On one hand, the bookmakers wanted to obtain correct information .

On the other hand, this was a method to disseminate information in real-time selectively . This maintained the enthusiasm that the palace had towards the Wei Wu Army .

The bookmakers in the casinos had even bribed the storytellers to organize a grand banquet .

The scouts received training materials and flew to the North Region . They estimated that they would arrive after one week . They started to spread the news . Everything was in its place and ready!

The bookmakers in the casino were full of confidence . They were fired up .

But on the eighth day, some of the gambling dens received information that the scouts from the Song Ji gambling den had been captured by the Wei Wu Army…

The gambling dens were dumbfounded . He was a Rank One! The Wei Wu Army was serious about capturing people! How did they catch him? Were you all crazy? You were fighting the Black Feather Army, right? Why did you capture the scouts from the gambling dens?

Some Rank Ones tried to run away . They did not even want to fight .

Now, they had been captured alive… just how strong was the Wei Wu Army? How were they able to capture a Rank One?

The gambling dens, who had been full of confidence, were left speechless . Their entertainers had indicated that they did not dare to approach the mountain where the Wei Wu Army was . They even ran dozens of kilometers away before they dared to do their search…

The gambling dens suddenly understood that all of them had underestimated the Wei Wu Army . The Wei Wu Army was very ferocious!

In the King Lu Mountain, Lu Shu did not know that people in the palace had started to place bets on the Wei Wu Army . He simply looked at the young people in front of them cheerily . “Are you from the Black Feather Army?”

The young man shook his head . “I advise that you let me go . I am from the palace . If you treat me unfavorably, there will be unexpected outcomes . ”

The scout from the Song Ji gambling den, Zhao Shuai, seemed to have lived for a very long time . To be honest, he did not expect to be captured alive either . He did not expect the Wei Wu Army to have four Rank One experts either . He had just approached King Lu Mountain when he was surrounded by the Bishop, Anthony, Johnson, and Liu Yizhao…

What could he do? He was left in utter despair!
