"What's up!" is just an informal greeting to acknowledge your presence. It doesn't require an answer. To be polite, you should acknowledge that acknowledgement by saying "Hi" or "Not much" or "Nothing new" or "Just the same" or anything like that or you can just smile.

A decade ago to learn English, you had to attend costly English classes or purchase course material like tapes and books. Now you can learn English for free from the comfort of your home using the internet. The BBC and the British Council offer a number of online courses which teach written and spoken English. You can also improve your English by watching television programs and reading English newspapers. For more information, visit http://tinyurl.com/qnzpt

What's up is a greeting asking you if there's anything new with you. or some new event. but usually, it's a colloquial term or slang for hello. I'm fine ,thank you . Or you could reply with nothing much and you

Not much. You?
Basically they are asking you how you are doing and what have you been up to lately. You're reply says you're fine and haven't been doing anything exciting. And you're then asking them the same question in return.

Usually a person will say "nothing, what's up with you?"

Same answer you would get to the question "How are you?" or "What's going on with you?"
