Synopsis
5 male and 5 female prize-winning martial art professionals (Each representing a different Martial Art) competed in a Martial-Arts based contest in a Shaolin Beijing, China.
In each episode the Grand Master sets a number of tasks. At the end of the episode he chooses the strongest and weakest contestant. The strongest contestant then has the choice as to who will face off against the weakest contestant in the Elimination at the end of the episode, this could be any contestant, including themselves.
The elimination took the place of a Sparring duel over 3 rounds, with a Shifu prepping them up between each round. However, because it was freestyle sparring and the contestants had different Martial Art styles there is no guaranteed way to decide who has won and is always decided by the Grand Master- Sometimes leading to questionable outcomes.
