So enraged are they that they employ the best fighters from the Wu Tang. A master leg fighter named Kao Chin Chung, whose "Flash Northern Legs" are undefeated in the whole of China, travels to Canton at the invitation of the Ching government to kill Shaolin master Hu Hui-Chien. This leads to the classic northern kicks and southern fist duel. The climax has Kao Chin being defeated and killed by Hu Hui Chien but Hu Hui Chien also dies from the kick wounds to end the movie.
