A run-in with Fang Shau-Ching (Kara) while both of them are stalking a potential target had Tien Hao unintentionally bunking with Fang's uncle, Yu (Lau Kar-leung) and upon learning the dark secret behind the Boxer Clan's indoctrinations, and both uncle's and niece's intentions to overthrow the Clan, Tien Hao decide to turn against his superiors and join their cause.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })While the movie plays out like most typical Shaw kung-fu offerings of it's time, it's however worth noting that true to it's title, the film gives major focus to all eighteen types of weapons used in wushu; notably, the film's final battle in a courtyard full of weapon racks allow characters to have free rein of choice to access literally every wushu-related weapon for their duel. | |

Advertised Extra: For the DVD release of the film, for some reason Celestial Media feels the need to plaster Gordon Liu's face all over the covers◊; in the actual film Gordon Liu's Monk Ti Tan is not even the sixth most important character in the movie, gets himself soundly beaten by by Uncle Yu, and dissappears before the third act could start, where the movie never mention Gordon's character for the remaining half an hour. | |
