What is martial arts? Martial arts have nothing to do with music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. It has nothing to do with precious treasures and secret manuals, and there isn't necessarily a "world's best". Martial arts is a skill, a technique that allows the weak the opportunity to wield a sword against the strong. What is chivalry? Chivalry is not about romance or traditional culture, and there is no gentle and humble behavior. Chivalry is violence, it is a dagger forged by those forced to climb Liangshan Mountain for a tyrant. Cao Mozhi forms an alliance, invading Lu's territory. Zhu Zhuan infiltrates and burns, and establishes himself as the ruler of Wu. Zhang Di cries at the market, seeking revenge for a fallen lord. With his sleeves rolled up, he acts with determination. Violently seizing power from the Qin, cowards gain strength. This is a martial arts story. In that era, a group of like-minded young people come together, striving to change the world.
