The story takes place in the early years of the Republic of China. The Huo family and the Zhao family are the two giants in the current martial arts world, constantly arguing until their faces turn red over who is the authentic Secret Sect Boxing. Huo Yuanjia (played by Wong Yuen Shing) was the fourth son of the Huo family. People did not think highly of him, who had been weak and sickly since childhood, nor did they plan to teach him martial arts. However, Huo Yuanjia, with his extremely high intelligence, unexpectedly developed the Mysterious Trace Fist on his own. On the day when the two families agreed to have a martial arts competition, he used the Mysterious Trace Fist and defeated his opponent Cheng Tianxiao. Little did they know that Cheng Tianxiao suffered a huge blow and passed away. His apprentice Chen Zhen (played by Leung Siu Lung), in order to avenge his master, became a disciple of Huo Yuanjia and waited for an opportunity to act. A group of people arrived in Tianjin. Huo Yuanjia, who was highly skilled in martial arts, soon caught the attention of the Japanese and was pursued. They could only take Qian Nan (played by Michelle Reis) and flee to Beijing, where they established the Jingwu Gate.[Collapse]
