Description
Summary:	Turn of the 20th Century. HuoYuanjia is the son of a great fighter. His father does not wish for his child to follow in his footsteps. Huo decides to teach himself how to fight and win. Years of training enable him to win match after match in his home region of Tianjin. As his fame grows, so does his ego. After an ill-advised fight leads to another master's death, members of Huo's family are murdered in revenge. Grieving and ashamed, Huo wanders the country in shock. As he nears death, he is rescued by women who offers him simple kindness and generosity. Acts that help him heal and regain his equilibrium. Huo realizes that the future of martial arts lies in sportsmanship and not brutality. He rejoins society to apply what he has learned. Returning to Tianjin, Huo comes to terms with his past and restores his family's name. His graceful Mizong Fist method of fighting brings Huo renewed success. He forms the Jingwu Sports Federation. Duplicitous members of the Foreign Chamber of Commerce engineer a Shanghai tournament pitting Huo against four of the worlds most ferocious fighters. What happened that day in 1910 has and will never be, forgotten in China. Huo becames the most famous fighter in all of China.
