 Bifurcated Weapon: Chou Ying-Lung's sword, who can split it's blade into at least six fan-like extensions, which allows him to take plenty of names in the film's numerous sword battles.

 Battle Couple: Chou Ying-Lung and Liu Ming-Chu naturally ends up as allies, taking on armies of mooks in large-scale battle scenes as Back-to-Back Badasses. Subverted for the climax, when she arrives to battle the bandits before him, and he arrives just in time to reinforce her, and as she is put out of action by Bandit Lord Wang Shan-Hu, he ends up taking on Wang and the remaining mooks all by himself.

 Beware the Nice Ones: The bandits completely underestimates Chou Ying-Lung due to how affable he is. Until he slays a bloody chunk from their ranks without batting an eye in the finale, that is.
