"Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself makes you fearless." - Lao Tzu
The life of martial arts master Huo Yuanjia. The plot differs greatly from the actual life of Huo Yuanjia. The movie starts off with Huo Yuanjia fighting 3 Westerners: a boxer, a spearfighter, and a fencer. Huo Yuanjia beats them all, and makes it his habit to bow to the opponent. Just as he is about to fight a fourth and final challenger, Anno Tanaka from Japan, Huo Yuanjia has a flashback.
The story flashes back to when Huo Yuanjia was a small boy. His father, Huo Endi, was a great fighter but did not want his asthmatic son to follow in his footsteps, and hence refused to teach Yuanjia martial arts. Huo secretly watched his father's training and taught himself how to fight.
