After acquiring the basic movements

of Southern Kung Fu,

you must teach them to Xu Ziying.

Furthermore, while accomplishing

task number one,

you have to ensure her safety.

Xu, you must learn kung fu well

from Robot Number One.

Sometimes, you are afraid

of pain and hardship,

and you should overcome it.

And when you learn kung fu,

you can protect yourself.

I wish you a happy life

in that other space-time.

As you brew, so must you drink.

Since you want to teach him,

you'd better do it in an earnest way.

Let him formally become an apprentice.

Tomorrow, take him to meet your uncle.

Really?

Thank you for coming.

Please come back soon.

Bye.

Father, it's so nice of you.

I'm not being nice.

A Jie is indeed talented.

-I'm reminding you out of kindness.

-Don't think you can learn...

Southern Kung Fu

just by taking a few glances.

You are not as talented

as our senior fellow apprentice.

He could learn every movement

after one glance.

I'm better than him.

Excuse me.

We're already closed for the day.

I'm sorry, Sir, we are closed for the day.

The senior fellow apprentice's skill

is one step above the highest level.

I have to leave right now.

Who are you? Tell me!

Why are you doing this?

Master!

Tell me, why did you run outside?

Why did you run there?

How was Chef Ren killed?

I was born with this skill

to hear sound from far away.

And I heard someone attacking him.

Uncle...

We'll definitely avenge you.

A Jie, what's the murderer like?

Does he have any obvious features?

It seemed to me that

he was using Southern Kung Fu.

Coming.

Who are you?

I've made a few new pastries.

Hope you don't mind tasting them for me.

Oh, I remember you.

Oh, please have a seat.

I'll make you a cup of tea.

I sent you a video,

but you didn't accept it.

I was practicing kung fu.

My memory was used up.

Is it an emergency?

The masked assassin is odd.

It seems to me that he practiced

some weird kung fu

that could directly interfere

with the brain.

I looked it up but found nothing about it.

It's like some kind of supernatural skill.

You should watch out for him.

Okay, here comes Zhou Xiaohua.

Madam, have some tea, please.

Master Zhou,

is there any kind of kung fu skill

that could manipulate the human mind?

Kung fu is extensive and profound.

Any kind of unique skill

is indeed possible.

However, it comes only after

reaching a certain level.

What do you mean? What level?

When your skill matures,

you reach that level.

It's like the humid air

before the rain falls,

which is intangible but does exist.

Humid air?

So the proportion of water should be

between 45 percent and 67 percent?

Does the right proportion of water

benefit learning Southern Kung Fu?

Proportion of water doesn't,

but talent does.

You have good talent in learning kung fu,

but you have to know that sometimes,

even if you master all those movements,

you can't reach that level.

But why?

Southern Kung Fu is fierce.

Only by absorbing essence of mountains,

rivers, the sun and the moon

can you master and conquer kung fu.

This mastery requires self-cultivation

and other than the art of kung fu,

you must master calligraphy...

which couples hardness with softness.

Mountains and rivers.

Master says I handle the brush well

and I'm very talented,

but I don't feel any talent in myself.

For now, maybe we should send out

the kung fu movements you have acquired.

We've been here for four days.

My task is to learn the essence

of Southern Kung Fu.

How can I acquire essence

before reaching the highest level?

But I'm worried about the masked assassin.

I think he came for you.

I'm not afraid of him.

Even if you have bones of steel and iron,

in this era, there are still things

that could wound you.

Master.

The foreigners, our enemies, are back.

-What?

-General Feng orders us

to escort some army provisions

to the frontline.

A Jie, I got you a position in that.

I have to learn Southern Kung Fu.

You keep talking about Southern Kung Fu.

Tell me, what are you

learning Southern Kung Fu for?

Look, our country is already in trouble.

-Then why don't you go?

-Hey!

He's going too.

A Jie, to be honest with you,

I got the position for you.

Right.

Our eldest uncle is leading the army

on the frontlines.

His Southern Kung Fu skill

is the heritage of the Shaolin.

Master wants you to go

so that you can learn from him too.

Yes, Master.

No problem.

I'll teach A Jie.

He has great potential.

Looks like it's going to rain.

Looks like a thunderstorm.

Are we still leaving?

Let's go.

General, it's going to rain.

Why not get back into the camp?

We should be more alert

on days when it rains.

Yes.

There!

Follow me. Hurry!

I'm the apprentice of

the King of Southern Kung Fu, A Jie.

-I'd like to meet the General.

-The General has left for patrol.

Then I will wait for him here.

How dare you trespass at my army camp!

Attack!

Something is wrong.

Chenlin's Southern Kung Fu movement.

Hey! Someone catch him!

Help the general!

A Jie.

Dear friends, thank you,

may your travels be safe.

-See you soon.

-Farewell...

-Please take care.

-Father, what happened?

-Master.

-What we are sure now is that

your eldest uncle was killed

by an assassin sent by the foreigners.

General Feng was assembling armies

from different nations

to get prepared for the fight

at the South Holding Pass.

A Jie, you fought with the assassin.

So tell me, what kind of kung fu

was he using?

The killer used Southern Kung Fu.

How can any foreigner know

about Southern Kung Fu?

He not only knows about it,

but has good mastery of it.

Probably as good as you.

A Jie, from now on,

I officially accept you as my apprentice.

I'll pass on to you

the essence of Southern Kung Fu.

Master, please.

All right.

You may stand up.

You. You went through difficulty

to be accepted,

why can't you even smile?

What is a smile?

It's an expression of happiness.

This is Hong Kung Fu, look closely.

My Southern Kung Fu is centered

around Hong Kung Fu

and involves Tiger and Crane Style,

Iron Line Kung Fu,

and Tiger Subduing Kung Fu.

Use more strength.

He has better perception

than your eldest fellow apprentice.

He is a genius.

Master, I'd like to spar with you.

Please feel free to instruct me.

No problem.

Try again.

All right.

You've been practicing hard. Take a break.

Master, you must be joking.

The movements you've taught me,

I've had no chance to use them.

A Jie, your top priority now

is not practice.

What? Are you giving up on me?

You need to improve.

You can reach the highest level.

Master asked me to take a look

at the mountains and all of nature

and learn about worldly life.

That's how to reach the highest level

of Southern Kung Fu,

with all of nature

and the sun and moon in your feet.

I've seen mountains, rivers,

the sun and the moon,

but couldn't feel anything in my heart.

That's because you don't understand

human emotions.
