Synopsis

THE DEADLIEST FIGHTING TECHNIQUES EVER DEVELOPED
When the snake fist was brought into the Kung-Fu world, its most deadly exponent was Shao Sar. Defeated once in a tournament by Khoo Tiet San's monkey fist, Shao swore vengeance. Khoo lives in a small village with a gymnasium owned by Drunken Ho, an old teacher who taught martial arts in the drunken style. One of his students is a young lad named Liang Shiao Chai, who learns all his combat skills. Later Liang insults the two sons of the evil Yan Fung Tien. Drunken defeats Yan's men, but he hires two fighters, Shao and Lun Chun, known as the Double Snakes to storm the gymnasium. They kill the Drunken and wound Liang. Khoo teaches Liang the monkey fist while he recovers, then he and Khoo set out in search of the Double Snakes. Khoo is killed by the Snakes in a duel, but Liang conceives an invincible new technique combining the monkey and drunken fists to defeat the Double Snakes at the film's fighting climax.
