The film mixes court intrigue with the story of the plucky martial arts-challenged Third Princess, who runs a no-holds-barred race against 2 ruthless Taiwanese magicians to obtain both the Princess' imperial jade seal and the secrets of a mystical book of combat. When things go wrong, Third Princess gathers an alliance of wacky characters with names like East Evil, South Emeperor, and North Beggar to win her throne back. (official distributor synopsis)
