Esta é uma das maiores e mais caras produções de todos os tempos do estúdio Shaw Brothers. Mistura os ingredientes de um filme de Kung-Fu tradicional com os fatos históricos ocorridos entre 1898 e 1901, quando patriotas chineses lutaram para expulsar os estrangeiros que lá viviam. Este filme é centrado na história de três jovens lutadores de artes marciais que buscam colegas patriotas insatisfeitos com os estrangeiros imperialistas e acabam se juntando a uma facção liderada por um oportunista. Uma rara oportunidade de ver a histórica rebelião, que foi retratada em vários filmes ocidentais, sendo contada pela ótica dos chineses.

He discovers that the Ninjas were responsible for his death and now they have teamed up with the vagabonds and Mongols, and are planning a coup of the Chinese government. The young Busliido fighter forms an alliance with some top Kung Fu men to stop the coup and get revenge for his father in this rare Chinese/Japanese co-production.
During the Taisho Period (early 1920's) a monastery of warrior monks was split apart between two factions. One of these factions was led by the Chief Abbot and his protege, Shinkai. When Shinkai intercedes in a fight between a rival priest and some ruffians it leads to his expulsion from the order. This story introduced us to the character of Shinkai, a "Karate Priest" and his long running feud with Ryotatsu, his greatest rival. There are touches of humor as Shinkai breaks all the commandments of a priest, including fighting, gambling, and running after women. All this leads to an awesome conclusion as he must destroy a gang of yakuza aided by corrupt priests. The fighting is fast and furious as Ryotatsu waits to see if Shinkai can live long enough to face him in the ultimate test! /Winterheart of CG
