Auntie Zhang,

Thank you.

What are you looking at?

Nothing...

We don't know how to look

after dad like Auntie Zhang does.

Yeah, that's true, why

don't you move in with us?

Don't be ridiculous!

A hundred push ups.

Right.

You two as well.

Right!

Go on, you have to listen

to what Auntie Zhang says

Otherwise, if she moves in,

you're going to upset her.

I can't do as much any more.

So from now on, her words are my words.

Yaowu, we're here to see you.

Yaowu, my savior!

I brought you some soup.

Well, what did the doctor say?

It's okay, just a

fracture, nothing serious.

But I'll have to hobble

around for at least 3 months.

He Le should count his lucky stars,

if I was there, I would

have kicked him in the face!

That guy, he is a great fighter.

None of us are his match,

but he chose the wrong path.

Yi, the finals are tomorrow.

Jin Wu Men's counting

on you to beat Yuen Chung.

Thanks! In order to save me...

you lost your place in the finals.

It doesn't matter.

After seeing someone like

He Le take such a wrong turn,

it made me understand that

you choose your own fate.

I used to think that because

I did not care about winning,

that I was not ambitious.

But now I understand what

Mister Li meant when he said...

In wushu, the only person you

have to defeat is yourself.

The road I will take is to do

my best to teach these kids.

Not just the techniques of

wushu, but also its ethics.

Don't laugh, one day we'll

see which of us is better.

We need to know who is the

master of Jin Wu Men, right?

I think you're better than my brother.

I second that.

Fong, what's up with you?

Don't worry

Yi may not lose tomorrow.

She signed a contract

with the film company.

Tomorrow she...

won't be competing.

Little Ox.

I'll be fine using my walking stick.

See you at the hideaway tonight.

Tomorrow, will be the most

important competition for Jin Wu Men.

Although not all of us

will be competing tomorrow,

our hearts will still be there as one.

Jin Wu Men...

The sun shines in the sky,

the flowers smile at me

the birds say 'good morning,

why do you carry a bag on your back.

Every day I must go to

school and not be late

I love to learn, I love to work

When I grow up I will

serve my people well.

Black has fallen out of the ring once.

Red has fallen out of the ring once.

Continue.

Black has fallen out of

the ring twice, Red wins.

You won!

Stop, stop...

Fong is there.

Fong, I defeated Thomas, I won!

I saw it, I've been here for a while now.

I came looking for you guys.

You guys coming to watch me compete?

I'm here to ask you to

watch me in the finals.

I thought you weren't going to compete.

I thought I wasn't going to either

but in the end I realised...

that I can't just throw away my past.

Being an actor really isn't me.

I still hope to get

into a sports university.

Your father's right.

One must choose their own road themselves.

The men's final for the provincial

team tryouts will begin soon.

All contestants please get ready.

The next contestant is Li Yi.

In order to win...

he has to score full

points in this competition.

Yi, look what I've brought you.

Mr. Yang said that if we

find this place before noon,

we can take over Jin Wu Men.

To fight crime

take from the rich and give to the poor

Sit down.

Today, Mr. Yang asked you to come here...

because you are the

best students in school.

So you are picked to be the

successors of Jin Wu Men.

This is the story, ten years

ago, 5 super heroes came here.

Their master was an invincible heroine.

Some time later, another girl came.

She was very good at fighting.

Nuts.

But among them, two boys

were the most powerful.

Yet between them, who

was the best in the world?

No one knew.

Because they had never fought each other.

Today is the day they agreed

ten years ago to fight a duel.

Successors, who will be the true master?

Who is the true master of Jin Wu Men?

Whoever gets this plaque

will be the true master.

Like all stories,

The end of Jin Wu Men's story

is just the beginning.

No one knows who the

final winner really is.

Just like what all of those

who practice wushu say,

In wushu

winning or losing is meaningless.

In the end, the only person

you need to defeat is yourself.
