I will bid the guests to leave.

Keep the girl who caught the thief.

She has asked me to teach her...

but I suspect she can teach us.

We will need more arms.

I will hire extra guards.

We need those who will do more than guard.

There are warriors who once stood against

this type of injustice.

True followers will still answer the call.

The Iron Way is not legend...

not yet.

I'm telling you, I'm good for it.

You are good for nothing.

We're good for your warrant.

I have 30 swords

at 20 ounces of silver a head.

That's...

Six hundred ounces of silver...

wasted.

Sir Te was honored

by masters of pen and sword alike.

If his house has need, men of the Iron Way

should heed for the honor of his cause,

not promise of riches.

My friend is right.

This warrant is not for you.

And if I say it is?

Think about it.

They're not that fast.

Big words for a little man... all alone.

He's not alone.

I stand with him.

Flying Blade of Shantung,

at your service.

As am I.

Thunder Fist Chan, famed in Zhejiang.

And I,

Silver Dart Shi.

Famed in Fuzhou.

And I, Turtle Ma. Famed in...

this tavern.

Who are you?

I'm known as Silent Wolf.

We'll have to rebuild all the tables!

Who threatens the House of Te?

West Lotus.

I need swords to protect its walls.

Now you have four more.

- To add to your army.

- How many, in your army?

- Five.

- Hundred?

Five.

Well, better five that can fight

than 500 that can run.

I need a drink.

On the house.

Never come back.

Let the training begin.

Do not just watch with your eyes,

listen with your mind.

Again.

Again.

Your curiosity with the boy...

I'm not curious.

Then what do I now mistake for curiosity?

Hopeless!

Irritation.

- Must we train here?

- Yes.

True skill is not a blazing flame.

Again.

Too much blazing flame!

This does not concern you!

A thousand broken sticks and swords

won't teach as much

as the one that bends to your will.

Touch me, however you can.

Or me!

Ignore him. Strike me.

A predictable attack

has a predictable outcome.

Again.

Keep practicing.

Be unpredictable.

Light Body Skill.

Where did you learn that?

My teacher. She taught me.

So, your teacher was a woman?

What is her name?

You would not know it.

And why do you no longer study with her?

She died.

Years ago.

I see.

I will practice.

Your patience will be rewarded.

Perhaps you need a bigger hole?

Like your mouth?

Which is always open?

I could try that.

You could try...

Or you could let me go.

Let you go? So you can thieve again?

Bring your spoils

to that monster Hades Dai?

Lord Dai is a great warrior.

Under his hand,

the Martial World will be peaceful.
