It is here we see the true character of Ip Man, who has captured the hearts of the people of Foshan and their respect. What follows will be Ip Man's struggles and challenges as he has to make ends meet for his family in the dreadful time of adversity. The fight ends but the story have only just began, and with it a change of mood from lightness to heavy because war has broken. The people celebrate as they hail Ip Man the savior who brought glory to Foshan by sending the thug away. Kam lost to Ip Man with a lesson he ought to have learn, only that he did not and left Foshan with only disgrace in his mind. A thug in Kam Shan-chau (Fan Sui-Wong) later arrives and challenges the various schools, defeating their masters ruthlessly, until he came face to face with Ip Man. With competitiveness taken the wrong way, things can go awfully wrong when all one wants to achieve is to have the other beaten so as to prove who the superior fighter is. In the world of martial arts, with all its attractiveness, it also brings with it the competitive nature of those who practice them. It reminds of the time when Bruce Lee had to slow his punches down during filming, as they were just too fast for the cameras back then to capture. The essence of Ip Man's fighting style, Wing Chun, is characterized by its tall narrow stance with effectiveness demonstrated through speed and power. Because in three strokes and a set of quick fists, he had Master Liu at his peril, well defeated yet without injury, as this was all but a friendly exchange in the spirit of martial arts. When the sparring finally got underway, it ended as swiftly as Ip Man's strokes suggest. We see here the humble and modest character of the protagonist.

Ip Man even invited Master Liu to sit and have dinner with his family when he spots him restlessly waiting by the living room. The mood here is not of hostility but of a light hearted and humorous fashion. He is eager to test his skills against Master Ip Man. Being the typical martial arts enthusiast that Master Liu is, he declined to leave when advised by Ip Man to come back at another time, choosing instead to stay and wait until Ip Man have finished his dinner. Our introduction to Ip Man began on the day when Master Liu (Chen Zhi-Hui) visits Ip Man at his residence when the latter is having dinner with his wife and son. He is Ip Man, played by Hong Kong action star Donnie Yen. He however would have no interest in opening a school to teach his art. In the people's mind however there would be only one martial artist who is the best.
