Rural kung fu whiz Qiang travels to visit his friend Lung, who's taken up Xanda, a new martial art that fuses multiple styles. When Lung is grievously wounded by the Xanda champ, Qiang trains in the sport to seek revenge in the ring.

Xanda is the latest film for Tsui Hark as producer. The film concentrates on a kung fu fighter from the countryside named Qiang who goes to the big city, where he learns about the new sport that's sweeping the city. Xanda is a hybrid form of martial arts, varying mainly on kickboxing and grappling. When his friend Lung is seriously injured by the current Xanda champion Wei, Qiang learns to combine his traditional kung fu with Xanda techniques to win the championship.—Ninja01
