The film then veers into "Karate Kid" territory where the novice humiliates himself at every turn, is tolerated as a foreigner, and still comes out a champion. The monastery teaches non-violence, but everyone knows that sooner or later the student will catch up with the bad guy.

Drew is on the ground, trying to do a kip. He is coming up, but then is crashing back down onto his spine. The D.S. comes up to him and points at his chest.
D.S.
Try to hit me here with your feet.
DREW:
With pleasure.
Drew tries another kip, pushing his feet towards the D.S.' chest. He lands on his feet easily, surprised.
EXT. WATERFALL – DAY ESTABLISHING SHOT OF DREW AND GAO UNDER THE WATERFALL. THEY ARE BOTH IN HORSE STANCES. THEY NOD AT EACH OTHER, AND THEY BEGIN GOING THROUGH A SLOW FORM, MOVING THEIR ARMS AND LEGS CAUTIOUSLY, BUT WITH POWER.
EXT. FOREST OF STONE – SUNSET ESTABLISHING SHOT OF DREW TRAINING IN THE FOREST OF STONE, THE BLAZING SUN BEHIND HIM.
EXT. DINING HALL – NIGHT ESTABLISHING SHOT OF DREW CARRYING THE DIRTY PLATES FROM DINNER.
He carries them out to the garbage area, and begins to scrape them off. From out of nowhere comes the staff, swinging for Drew.
Drew doesn't jump, but just calmly avoids it. The staff WHOOSHES over his head. Drew stands up, and the staff comes again, from a different direction. Drew avoids, and the staff finds empty air again.
Drew goes on with cleaning the plates, a slight smile on his face. After a BEAT, he looks around, trying to find the attacker. When he is sure no one is around, he smiles bigger.
DREW:
Allright! I did it!
As soon as he finishes saying that, the staff comes out and SLAMS him in the stomach, sending Drew to his knees in pain.
EXT. TRAINING AREA – DAY ESTABLISHING SHOT OF THE DISCIPLES THROWING FLYING KICKS.
The sequences are very beautiful as the monks throw kicks into the air and into targets.
EXT. TRAINING AREA – ANOTHER ANGLE ESTABLISHING SHOT OF DREW AND LI FIGHTING.
Drew is rushing Li, throwing every possible technique at him, which he blocks. Li gets into a low stance as he goes back, and Drew takes this opportunity – he uses Li's own leg as a step and jumps off of it, hitting him HARD with a jump spin hook.
Li gets up right away and slaps Drew's hand.
EXT. TEMPLE PATHS – MORNING 116 (WINTER TIME) ESTABLISHING SHOT OF SNOWY MORNING.
