The Seven Princesses of Martial Arts

In the mid-Ming Dynasty, the Wokou (Japanese pirates) continuously harassed the southeastern coast, while the Liusheng clan of Japan assisted Tokugawa Ieyasu in his efforts to sweep through the martial arts world of the Central Plains.

Meanwhile, rumors spread in town that Meng Qingsi was setting up a seductive arrangement in a brothel to call forth talented fighters, and a surprised Dugu Zhen decided to investigate with Wu Tong...
