Mun is defeated, but Gung succeeds in winning and realises that the prize is the beautiful daughter of a local town chief. Their impulsive nature sees them enter into a kung-fu tournament in the town without knowing the prize. The film follows the misadventures of two friends, Gung (Chien Yuet San) and Mun (Alan Hsu), who rank themselves as happy-go-lucky kung fu obsessives. Both stars are not the kind of classically handsome leading men that Hong Kong produces today, but both have their own places cemented in the halls of kung fu cinema as stars and first-rate fight choreographers. This endearing and unforgettable independent kung fu film features two familiar faces of the genre: Chien Yuet San who can often be found playing bit parts in various films of the 70’s and Alan Hsu who often took the role of villain or heroic sidekick.
