964 Martial Arts Conference
Chapter 964 Martial Arts Tournament
After Herke died, the entire manor was taken over by Elena.
Lu Yu and the other three could still stay here. Although the people in the manor were curious about Herke’s disappearance, they did not suspect Elena.
Therefore, it was easy for Elena to live here, as with Lu Yu and the others.
Over the next few days, Lu Yu asked the Empress to use her concealment skills to find information about the Orlando family.
On the fifth night, the Empress returned to the villa in a black windbreaker and sat on the sofa in the living room.
“Did you get any results from today’s investigation?”
Lu Yu looked at her and asked.
“I’ve found out the exact location of the Orlando family in West Court City, but this isn’t their headquarters.”
“Also, they’re going to hold an event soon. A martial arts tournament.”
“They will spend a lot of money to invite all the capable youngsters in West Court City to participate in this martial arts tournament.”
Lu Yu rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment. “I’m sure they have an ulterior motive for organizing this event.”
“It’s very likely that something will happen at the end.”
“I don’t think their plan is complicated,” Lu Yu added. “They’ll be using this martial arts tournament to pinpoint talents. After the competition, they’ll bring them to a specific place and kidnap them.”
“They will be likely to be supplied to the Demon Blood Lord.”
“If that’s the case, then I think it’s necessary to intervene.”
“I’m going to sign up!” Lu Yu said as he looked at the Empress.
“No problem. Why don’t I take you there?”
“We’ll go tomorrow morning. After I register for the martial arts tournament, I’ll get a good ranking. That way, I’ll have a chance to sneak into the Orlando family and see how they send their goods to the Demon Blood Lord.”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, Helen and Shirley walked over.
“You want to participate in the martial arts tournament? I guess the other contestants will be in trouble.” Helen said it with a smile.
“Why are you entering a martial arts tournament? Is it because the Orlando family organizes it?”
Shirley asked curiously.
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “That’s right. I’m sure the Orlando family is organizing this martial arts tournament to specially select the strongest talents among the younger generation and then wait for an opportunity to kidnap them.”
“I’ll go over and take a look. Maybe I can sneak into their family.”
“Great!” Helen and Shirley said it excitedly. “There’s a fight to watch!”
Lu Yu shook his head helplessly. “I’m not entering the tournament for fun. Do you guys want to be my audience?”
“Of course.” Helen and Shirley nodded.
“Alright, alright. We’ll talk about it tomorrow, then…”
They had dinner together with Elena after that.
Lu Yu told his plan to Elena, and she wanted to watch, too.
Lu Yu didn’t refuse, as it wouldn’t hurt to have a few more people watching him.
After dinner, Lu Yu went back to his room to sleep.
The next morning, Lu Yu woke up, washed up, and walked out of the room.
He saw that the Empress had been waiting at the door for a long time.
She was no longer wearing her black clothes. Instead, she wore a white gown that made her look charming with the demeanor of a mature older sister.
“Let’s go. I’ll take you there.”
She led the way and walked out of the huge manor.
The two of them arrived at the registration office together.
Lu Yu saw the notice on the notice board outside.
“If you want to register, please enter to discuss in detail.”
Lu Yu and the Empress walked in. At the reception area of the martial arts center, Lu Yu walked toward a staff.
“Hello, I want to register for the martial arts tournament.”
“You’re late. The martial arts tournament has already ended,” the staff member said absent-mindedly.
“What? Had it already ended today? So fast?”
“I meant the registration is over. The martial arts tournament hasn’t started yet, but you can’t register anymore.”
The staff was still drinking tea and reading a newspaper.
“Please help me make an exception. I really want to participate in this martial arts tournament.”
The receptionist looked up at Lu Yu. When she saw his handsome face, she immediately sat up straight and spoke in a gentler voice.
“No problem, handsome. I’ll free up a spot now, and you can take over.”
After saying that, she took out a file from the cabinet beside her and threw it into the trash can.
She took out a new document and handed it to Lu Yu.
“Fill it in and write down all your personal information.”
Seeing this, Lu Yu could only helplessly write down his personal information.
Anyone could use a nickname or a pseudonym for the martial arts tournament. Lu Yu wrote down his name, Little Dragon.
The staff member took the information form and looked at Lu Yu with a puzzled expression when she saw the words ‘Little Dragon.
“Aren’t you going to write your real name? I’m curious about your name.”
“No, I like to be called by this nickname. Forget about my real name.”
Lu Yu smiled casually.
“Alright, by the way, where do you live again?”
“I’m staying at her house.”
The staff turned around and saw the Empress. Seeing her exquisite appearance and near-perfect figure, she was bumped out.
“Alright, come on in. The tournament starts at noon, so go and get ready. Or you can go home first and come back when the time is up.”
Lu Yu walked straight into the place.
The structure here was similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome.
There was a circular auditorium, and in the middle was a huge arena for people to fight.
When Lu Yu entered the venue, he could see that there were already quite a number of spectators. They were all sitting in their seats, eating and drinking, waiting for the tournament to begin.
Lu Yu and the Empress found a place to sit down. Soon, it was noon, which was also the busiest time in the entire venue.
Lu Yu saw Helen, Shirley, and Elena enter the venue.
They were all dressed gorgeously. Helen was wearing a light green dress with a white shirt inside and a black beret on her head.
As for Shirley and Elena, they both wore simple and elegant dresses but didn’t lose the nobility they had.
Compared to the others, they looked particularly outstanding. Whether it was their looks or their actions, they did not look like people from the bottom.
After they arrived, they walked toward the audience and took their seats.
From a distance, they looked at Lu Yu, who was waiting in boredom.
“This martial arts tournament looks quite lively. There are so many people here, probably twenty to thirty thousand people.”
“The scale of this tournament isn’t small. It seems like the Orlando family has invested a lot.”
