Plot/Synopsis:
It is the early years of the republic and China has been plunged into chaos as feuding warlords battle to expand their power and their lands. Young army leader Hou Jie and his sworn brother Cao Man find little resistance in their conquer of the township of Dengfeng, leaving thousands injured and dead in their wake.
The venerated Shaolin Temple throws open its doors to the wounded. Disciples Jing Neng, Jing Kong and Jing Hai venture out in the day to save the villagers and at night, become masked Robin Hoods to help the poor and weak.
When Hou Jie learns that temple disciples are helping his enemies, he challenges the temple’s kung fu. The abbot purposely loses the fight to Hou Jie and the latter becomes even more arrogant. But Hou is forced to repent when the shock betrayal of Cao Man wipes out his whole family and he is forced to seek refuge at Shaolin. While recuperating at the temple, Hou has the chance to learn Shaolin’s powerful martial arts from the crazy monk Wu Dao and find inner peace. However, his wife Yan Xi has difficulty coping with the loss of their daughter and decides to seek out Cao Man for revenge. In the meantime, Jing Neng, Jing Kong and Jing Hai also have a confrontation with Hou. The encounters anger Cao Man who brings his army to besiege Shaolin and the peace-loving monks are forced to take up arms to protect the refugees and their beloved temple…
