Every five years, the clan's leaders - the Gold River Queen (Go Lai-Ga) of the Gold Clan, Master Yunmeng (Wong Yung) of the Wood Clan, the Purple Robe Duke (Yueh Hua) of the Water Clan, the Fire Demon God (Lo Lieh) of the Fire Clan and the Black Earth Old Man (Yeung Chi-Hing) earth clan - will hold a tournament to decide the leaders. But, the overly ambitious Fire Demon God of the Fire Clan intends to get rid of all his rivals and permanently dominate the world of martial arts.After an unsuccessful attempt on his life led to the benevolent Purple Robe Duke being poisoned, with a remaining limit of two months in his lifespan, the Duke decide to summon his headstrong younger brother, just a novice fighter, Bao Bao-yu (Lau Wing), to join the upcoming tournament on his behalf and investigate a conspiracy that can overturn the jiang hu. Thus begins a colourful and action-packed fantasy epic from Shaw Brothers.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

The Casanova: Bao-yu, who gets plenty of girls surrounding him in every scene when he enters taverns or palaces. He acts like he's reluctant, but he's clearly enjoying the company of women. | |
