[English subtitles are available.] Su Tang. Are you all right? Lu Ping… I’m a bit hungry. Think of this as a candy. You’ll feel better. Lu Ping… Where are we going? We’ll go wherever we can survive. [There were ongoing disputes between countries] [and the world was in chaos.]
[Zhai Wei of Dan Kingdom raised a mutiny] [and changed the reigning title to Shuo.] [Shuo stands across from Dan that retreated to the north.] [In the midst of the chaos,] [the trend of practicing martial arts and soul force rises.] [Warriors] [practice martial arts.] [Internal soul wise, they practice] [Vision,] [Sound,] [Energy,] [Pivot,] [Strength,]
[and Essence.] [The Six Souls.] [The soul of Vision lies in sight.] [Those who master it has insight into trajectories.] [It’s like reeling silk from cocoons.] [No thread of silk is left unreeled.] [The soul of Sound lies in distinguishing voices.] [Those who master it can hear it’s surroundings clearly.]
[Even from a thousand miles away,] [they can distinguish] [where the sound came from.] [The soul of Energy uses leverage.] [Those who master it] [can move around as light as air.] [They can move faster than an arrow.] [The soul of Pivot lies in senses.] [Those who master it]
[have a sense of smell and taste] [a thousand times stronger.] [They can distinguish all sorts of poisons and herbs.] [The soul of Strength lies in power.] [Those who master it] [are strong enough to lift up a mountain,] [shift lands, and rivers.] [They will be unstoppable.] [The soul of Essence lies in the mind.]
[Those who master it can control minds.] [It’s the most mysterious soul among the six souls.] [Those whose minds are controlled, lose their senses.] [Even by training for a lifetime,] [it’s hard for martial arts practitioners to master all six souls.] [Legend has it,]
[there are those who are born with the unity of six souls.] [But they are hard to come by.] [They are called the Awakeners.] General, this is the Ruinous Star position of Beidou Array. It’s the mastery of Strength. The soul of Sound is a bit weak. General, listen to the sound of the swords,
And break the soul of Strength. General, the Epsilon Ursae Majoris. The mastery of Energy can utilize Vision to break the array. General. Alkaid position. Their Vision isn’t as powerful as yours. Their weakness is exposed. General, go ahead and break the array. [Episode 1] Enjoy. Chamber Master. Beidou Chamber’s array is world renown.
Your powers are profound and unpredictable. I’m humbled. General Qin. The Sun Streamer Swordplay is quite ingenious. An early bloomer indeed. This gentleman uses his soul of Pivot to distinguish the difference in the usage of every soul. Wen Gecheng, the man of Inseparable Manifestation and Obscurity. You do live up to your name.
That’s just a compliment from my friends. Sir, you’re too kind. I’ve long heard that all martial arts practitioners are from Beidou Chamber. However, in times of disputes, the world is now in chaos. His Majesty has specifically sent me here, to ask you to leave retirement and join the government
In training soldiers for Shuo. His Majesty will honor you as a patriot. I have let you down, General Qin. It doesn’t matter. Beidou Chamber is the leading martial arts academy. It’s only right that he’s dignified. You wanted to recruit pugilists to serve the country. There are many academies in Shuo.
There will be other martial arts prodigies. Rather than prodigies, I’ve attracted quite a few oddities. It has only been a few days. Ms. Qin’s soul of Vision has improved greatly. Qin Qi. You actually shot an arrow at me. I managed to duck in time, but what if you hurt Ziyan? You…
Do you remember what I said? If you allow your mistress to wander off, by law, you should be punished. You should be beheaded. I’m sorry. Please forgive me, General Qin. Get up. Why do you take the blame for everything? Qin Qi. I’m just here to admire
The demeanor of the leading martial arts academy. Then I can assist you in the future. Am I right, Mr. Wen? Ms. Qin has great aspirations. You’re indeed the daughter of a military aristocrat. Mr. Wen. -You’re flattering… -General. There’s a message from Chan State. They were attacked by an unknown force.
They hope you can discuss the issue with them. Who dares to be so bold? It’s Shanhai Gang. We’ll go past Chenqiao Town on our way back to the capital. Tell them to meet me in Chenqiao Town. I’m coming with you. The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng
Surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou… It’s too heavy. I’m done. I can’t move anymore.
-What’s going on? -Exactly. No way… Lu Ping. Let me carry it for you. You are not to help him. We have to jog tenevery day. Get up. You’re the eldest disciple. Even our master said that I’m naturally incompetent. Your soul of Strength is surely better than mine. It’s unfair. Lu Ping.
Su Tang is a girl and even she can carry it. As an eight-feet-tall man, aren’t you embarrassed? Exactly. Lu Ping, if you behave like this, how will Zhaifeng Institute surpass Beidou Chamber? Xifan. What is Beidou Chamber? The martial arts academy in Chan State is huge,
But they didn’t dare to say they want to surpass Beidou. Our Zhaifeng Institute… We don’t even have decent clothes. If we keep saying things like this, we’ll be the laughing stock of Chenqiao Town. -Yes. -Yes, that’s right. Not to mention we have someone holding us back.
My godbrother had been injured, so he’s frail. If you have anything against him, pick a fight with me. Xifan. My back is also sprained. Just let me off today. Knock it off. You can’t fool me with such tricks. No one in Zhaifeng Institute is allowed to fall behind.
-Even the worst disciple. -That’s right. Pick it up. Jog. Lu Ping, I’ll help you. The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! -The valiance of Zhaifeng -This is really heavy. surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng surpasses that of Beidou! The valiance of Zhaifeng…
It’s Wen Gecheng. Are you sure? I’ve already asked around. It must be him. Keep Zhao Xifan occupied. I’ll be right back. Be careful. It seems we can’t carry out our task. We’ll jog towards East City. Where is Lu Ping? Xifan. Where is Lu Ping? He has gone to the restroom. Step aside! Xifan.
Why is Lu Ping always like this? Exactly. [Chenqiao Relay Station] General Qin. It must have been hard on you traveling such a long distance. Master Wei and I have prepared a great feast to welcome all of you. Someone is dead and you’re still in the mood to eat? This way, please.
Who are you? Who are you? I would like to meet Mr. Wen. I have important information. Leave right away. Leave now. This is the Shanhai Badge. What is it for? I don’t know. After receiving this badge, several sects in the martial arts world were either annihilated or disappeared. Recently,
The Fengling Gang near Chan State sent a letter to me for help. They said they also received the Shanhai Badge. General Qin. I think this is highly unusual and thus invited you over to discuss it. This matter is indeed unusual. General. I think this is a normal dispute in the martial arts world.
Soul Combat Convention is right around the corner. It’s unwise to be delayed by this. Mr. Wen. Since lives were taken, how can the government do nothing to help? Qin Sang. Don’t interrupt Mr. Wen. Ms. Qin. There are rules in the martial arts world. If the general interferes,
He will disrupt the order of the martial arts world. Moreover, should this issue hold us up from attending Soul Combat Convention, wouldn’t it be a waste of His Majesty’s efforts? It’s not worth it. Master Wei is highly reputable in Chan State. There are skilled warriors in his manor.
The letter was addressed to the Wei family for assistance. It should be handled by Master Wei. General Qin. I’ve been thoughtless. Please forgive me, General Qin. If so, we’ll leave this matter to Master Wei. Master Chen, you should assist him. Do not allow those criminals to get away. Yes. Qin Qi.
Are you really staying out of it? You’ve been away for too long. It’s about time you head home. Behave yourself. [If you won’t handle it,] [I’ll go] What are you doing? Do you want to die? Get lost. How dare you go against officials? You might get shot to death.
Gentlemen, please get to the bottom of this matter. Lu Ping, go. I haven’t dealt with you about straying away from the team. Do you like it? -Yes. Did you pick it? -Yes. Xifan. Xifan. Lu Ping. Do you remember the origins of the six souls that our master taught us? Xifan.
I’m not very smart. It gives me a headache to listen to that. Su Tang. Shitou. Su Tang, hold this for me. -Impressive. -Exactly. -Nice! -Great archery skills! Xifan is remarkable. Indeed. All martial arts practitioners have to learn from the founder of martial arts. We have to pick one soul first
And then move on to practicing two. Lastly, we should master five souls. I only used the soul of Vision to look at the trajectory of the wine urn and the coin. That is how I managed to hit it in one shot. Lu Ping. Our master taught us archery. Today,
If you can perform as well as I did, I won’t punish you. Sure. Bring it on. What is this? How embarrassing. He’s really lame. Such a loser. I am a loser. A loser should roll around on the ground and then find a tree to hug. If Xifan didn’t meddle today,
I would have gone with that mighty general to Kaifeng for a life of luxury. You’re in Zhaifeng Institute. You should abide by the morals of martial arts. Even if you’re not studious, you shouldn’t sneak away. That’s one. Since you practice martial arts, although you’re naturally inapt, you shouldn’t get complacent and disgrace yourself.
That’s two. Thirdly, and the most important of all, you disturbed the officials. That is disregard for the law. Should the government find fault with you, it will implicate Zhaifeng Institute. What will your peers do? You’ll be punished for the multiple mistakes. I can’t turn a blind eye to it. Zhaifeng Staff!
Hit me if you want to. Don’t hit Lu Ping. Su Tang. Our master placed me in charge of the institute’s matters. I’m responsible for disciplinary actions. You’re naturally gifted. You shouldn’t be held back by such a person. Otherwise, when you’ll have to choose him or give up on him, how will you decide?
Whatever the choice, I’ll always side with Lu Ping. Well said. -I’ll leave this to you. -Lu Ping! Lu Ping, stop right there! Master… Help… Save us… I can save you. Five thousand silver taels. Get up. Please don’t kill him. Don’t make me look bad. Master, I haven’t even hit him. You rascal, kneel.
Apologize to Xifan. This rascal owes me a huge debt. If you beat him to death, who should I get my money from? Master. You’re even worse than Xifan. You… Xifan. Come here. The widow and owner of Ruyu Restaurant, Jin Ruyu, has been kidnapped by bandits.
She’s going to become the lady of the fort tomorrow. Jin Ruyu has quite a lot of assets. There are quite a few holes in the walls of Zhaifeng Institute. We must get them mended before winter. Your task for tomorrow will be led by Xifan and Su Tang. Master. Me and my lame tricks,
Wouldn’t it cause trouble? You’re no good at fighting. At least, you can keep watch. You. You’re in the wrong today. No dinner for you. You are not allowed to sleep in the dormitory. Go and scrub the stables clean. Carry out the task with Xifan tomorrow. Master.
I really don’t want to join this time. Xifan. Xifan. Xifan, hold on. Xifan, stop right there. Xifan. Haven’t you always wanted to get rid of bullies and help the weak? We can’t sit on the sidelines. How much money are you going to get out of it this time? Martial arts practitioners
Should uphold justice. What you just said is so materialistic. Master. Throughout the years I’ve been in Zhaifeng Institute, you did save quite a few people. But you always charged a high price for that. It is not righteous. Didn’t the rich make a fortune with their own hands? Xifan.
If every warrior in the world is like you, if they only save the poor, what about the wealth of the rich? Who will charge them for righteous acts? Does your righteousness despise the rich and love the poor? You have really let me down. So much for the years
Of effort that I’ve spent on you. Are you worried that there will be too many bandits? Don’t worry. The God of Bandits… He’ll surely show up. Isn’t that the loser of Zhaifeng Institute, Lu Ping? -That’s right. -He really is a hopeless loser. Exactly. Right? The steamed buns for today. They are really good.
Did you save them for me? I failed to hold Xifan back and got you beaten up. I should be punished. Here. Osmanthus candy? Where did you get it? I stole it this morning. Lu Ping. Why didn’t you tell them what happened this afternoon? Why should I?
They wouldn’t laugh at you if they knew. I don’t like it when they mock at you. It makes me lose my appetite. Su Tang. If they get to see what I’m truly capable of, what should I do when they beg me to stay? Won’t that be bad? Haven’t we already decided?
Once we find Wen Gecheng, we’ll leave Zhaifeng Institute. Say… Will Shanhai Gang… Will they find us in Chenqiao Town? Don’t worry, Su Tang. But no one ever escapes from Shanhai Gang. Su Tang. We already made it out alive once. We will have many more years to live. Master. It will be midnight soon.
I don’t think the reinforcement from Wei family will make it in time. Why don’t we surrender? They are Shanhai Gang. [Disturbances in the three realms] [are like a burning mansion.] [Only the invincible Shanhai Gang] [can tide you over.] Ling Ziyan, Kuiying Sword. Master Zheng.
Qin family’s Sun Streamer Swordplay does live up to its reputation. Is that all there is to Shanhai Gang? How vulnerable. He’s from Shanhai Gang. It turns out… Since the beginning, Shanhai Gang only sent out one man. [From the very beginning,] [we’ve been trapped in the illusion he created,]
[with his soul of Essence to kill each other.] [We won’t discover the truth until we’re dead.] [Shanhai Badge?] Ziyan, catch it! Miss, let’s go! Don’t stand up to him. Let’s go. Shitou. As for your tasks, drug their food and drinks. Su Tang. You’ll team up with me.
Watch the timing and make a move after securing Jin Ruyu. Lu Ping. What are you doing? Why are you idling there? I’m keeping watch. What’s in your bag? Food. We’re here on a rescue mission, not a picnic. I have to bring food to keep watch. Besides, if I don’t eat this now,
Su Tang will need to eat them later. Xifan. Ignore him. The rescue comes first. Be careful. Let’s go. Miss. We’ve been running all night. That man is still coming after you. Why don’t we rush back to Kaifeng and inform the general? I was here to annihilate Shanhai Gang.
But now, I ended up getting the people of Fengling Gang killed. How can I have the nerve to ask my brother for help? Right, this is the Shanhai Badge that you seized from him. Where the Shanhai Badge goes, casualties follow. I can’t let him retrieve this. This is bad.
He has caught up with us again. Miss. I’ll go and lure him away. Chuanyun Fort is halfway on the hill. Head over there and hide for a while. I’ll meet you there if I get away. No! You’re no match for him. I’m trained in the soul of Energy. Combat wise, I can’t win,
But I can get away. I’m not scared. We’ll swap clothes. [Chuanyun Fort] Madam Jin. Is that lover of yours not coming? Don’t you worry. What is Zhaifeng Institute like? Zhaifeng Institute. Righteous and chivalrous. Once Master Guo hears of this, he’s bound to rescue me. Today, just put on a show with me.
Once he gets here and save the damsel in distress, that makes a pair of good fortune. I’ll treat all of you to drinks. Thank you, Madam Jin. Come on. -Let’s drink! -Drink it up. Report! Movements were spotted at the foot of the hill. Zhaifeng Institute seems to be here.
We’d better take Madam Jin into the wedding hall to wait for her lover. Yes. Madam Jin, this way, please. Let’s go. Hurry up. Come on. Let’s go. Shut the door. Where is Master Guo? Did he tell you to save me? Master Guo? Save you? I knew it. You must have heard of me?
Seriously, Master Guo… He says he doesn’t care, but deep down, he still can’t stand that I’m brought here to become a bandit’s wife. Why did you come alone? Where is he? [Since Shanhai Gang is at my heels,] [I might as well go along with it] [and lure him in.] When did Zhaifeng Institute
Take in such a pretty female disciple? Be honest with me. Is Master Guo interested in you? Miss. Please take off your clothes. Why should I take my clothes off? Don’t panic. I’m a government official. If you put on my clothes, you’ll definitely be safe in here. However, you must bear in mind,
No matter what happens, you must not leave the room. You’re a government official? I’ve looked around. There are a dozen men in the front and the backyard. There are no guards on the watchtower. It’s going to be a breeze. I’ll tackle the bandits. You’ll rescue Madam Jin. Hold on.
Why are you holding me back for no reason? Let’s rescue her quickly and head back for dinner. If I’ve guessed it right, the God of Bandits will show up. The God of Bandits? You’re not here to rescue her at all. You’re here to arrest him?
[The God of Bandits always gets ahead of you.] [He intercepts those thieves] [and robs them of the riches.] [Will you lose to him again this time] and let him get ahead of you? The God of Bandits shows up every half a month. Master. I’ll do it. Su Tang.
Why do you look so pale hearing that I’m going after the God of Bandits? Anyway, I can’t help you trick him. I won’t rescue Madam Jin. My stomach hurts. I’m heading back. Shitou and the guys already sneaked into the kitchen to drug the food. You’ll rescue Jin Ruyu today
And leave the God of Bandits to me. Xifan. You’re so ungrateful. When the bandits went into a frenzy last time, he saved you. He keeps robbing others of riches. I have to arrest him since he has violated the law. I think it’s because you keep losing to the God of Bandits,
That you feel embarrassed? I’m not. Master gave me this badge. I have to be the role model of Zhaifeng Institute. Did I piss Zhao Xifeng off so badly that’s he’s become dumb? He can’t even handle some bandits. My thoughtful wife gave me an heirloom. Leader. What treasure is it? Show it to us.
Leader, it’s quite nice. -Let’s drink. -Here… Tonight I’ll… Xifan. Something fishy is going on. That bride isn’t Madam Jin. You are not Madam Jin. Shanhai Gang’s insolent chap. Don’t you dare run away. [Shanhai Gang?]
