The Kung Fu Master

In order to win the Han tribe`s favour and to frustrate the arrogant official, NGAU MU HO, the Emperor decided to hold a Kung Fu Contest between the Han tribe and the Manchus. With CHENG KANG LI`s invitation, the successor of the TAM`s, TAM CHUNG CHING, decided to participate in this contest. CHU KONG, the successor of the Five Style Fist and also the most probable Han representative, was very dissatisfied. On the contest day, CHING beat his enemies hard and won. He eventually met NGAU`s son, NGAU FEI, in the final. CHING was exhausted. He would have been lost if HEI did not give him a hand. Therefore, HEI suggested to arranging another day for the contest. CHING was hurt in the contest. He wanted his fellow, CHIU KIN, to represent the TAM`s to compete with FEI. KIN hesitated. CHING`s son, TAM TIN, was enlightened after being slapped by KONG`s daughter, CHU CHUN TUNG. He then realized the essence of the TAM`s Eleventh Kick.

CHING presented in the Lion Dance and was nearly being assassinated. Fortunately, TIN arrived in time and made use of the TAM`s Eleventh Kick to help CHING. CHING could then balance himself. CHING decided to send TIN to participate in the contest. FEI guaranteed his life to NGAU that he must win. TUNG convinced TIN to marry her with sweet words. On the day of contest, FEI bribed KIN to put poison into TIN`s tea. During the contest, TIN had got the better hand of the situation in the first part. However, the poison started to bother TIN in the second part. TIN`s leg was hurt. KIN went to ask FEI for his money but he was in vain. KIN stole CHING`s money on TIN`s wedding day. KIN even hurt CHING and made the TAM`s house on fire. TIN tried to rescue CHING. CHING left a message to TIN. He asked him to pass the TAM`s Kick to a potential successor.

TIN was very depressed since his father`s death. He earned a living by working as a worker. His sister, SUET, was selling dessert in the street. The TAM house had become TUNG`s dying workshop as TIN owed TUNG dowry. A cop, MA BUT PING, promised to check TIN for FEI so as to win FEI`s favour. TIN met LAW HEI who came form Hunan. LAM asked KONG to take care TIN. LAM arranged TIN and HEI to work at TUNG`s dying workshop. KONG pretended to visit TUNG, in fact, he intended to learn the TAM`s Kick secretly. However, his daughter, CHUN NAM, disclosed his plot. NAM wanted to represent KONG but was refused by KONG. NAM met Master LAU. FEI and LAU were enemies. NAM tempted FEI to the dying workshop so as to fight against him. However, FEI challenged KONG instead. Fortunately, TIN gave KONG advice. FEI withdrew. In fact, TIN had a talent for Kung Fu. FEI again asked PING to check TIN`s Kung Fu level.

FEI told NAM that he could not date LAU`s daughter, YU MING, due to the conflict between the Han and the Manchus tribes. MING was so depressed that she died. NAM was very loyal to love; she thus had left a good impression on FEI. When SUET found out that TIN was working for TUNG, she blamed TIN. Some rascals bullied SUET. TIN intended to make use of the TAM`s Eleventh Kick to stop the rascals but was in vain. Fortunately, PING arrived in time and saved them. SUET understood TIN`s difficulty and did not force TIN to practice Kung Fu. PING and his father, FUNG MAN HON, misunderstood that HEI was a fugitive. They beat PING terribly. HEI therefore decided to learn Kung Fu from KONG. NAM again met FEI due to LAU. NAM and FEI blossomed love feeling on each other. NAM feared that her father would oppose her going out with FEI. A fugitive, pale BILL, intended to take revenge on HON. He mistakenly attacked PING……

HON worried a lot for PING`s future. This made PING more eager to toady to FEI. Although HEI was very diligent in practicing Kung Fu, he did not know the essence. His fellows laughed at him. KONG succeeded in transforming the Five Style Fist into the TAM`s Kick. PING deliberately approached SUET so as to know about TIN`s progress. He even made SUET think that his kick was excellent so that TIN would recruit him to be his student. TIN saw that HEI`s kick was good during the fire. He selected him to be the TAM`s successor. However, HEI felt that TIN was a coward and looked down upon him. Moreover, he had already become KONG`s student. He thus refused TIN. TIN found that HEI`s way of practicing Kung Fu was inappropriate. TIN thus took the opportunity to teach HEI how to make use of his leg to handle the piece-goods. PING got to know the essence of TIN`s Kick from SUET. He then told FEI the details.

HEI met SUET the first time. SUET helped HEI to treat his wound. She even bought HEI a new pair of shoes. HEI had a very good impression on SUET. However, he was very disappointed when he found out that SUET and PING were very close friends. HEI met PING who was flirting around with the prostitutes. He was very angry for SUET`s sake. HEI quarreled with PING. HEI made use of the TAM`s Kick to break PING`s sword. FEI demanded PING to check TIN closely. PING then got more close to SUET. SUET was very curious about PING`s motive. LAM learned that TIN had already found his successor. LAM reminded TIN to keep this a secret as TIN was defeated last time in a very suspicious way. FEI dated NAM. The relationship between the two improved. HEI saw that a Manchu, DUNG, bullied SUET. HEI again made use of the TAM`s Kick to beat DUNG. KONG nearly became the scapegoat……
