Ha Kung's daughter is involved in a fight scene with ten people while rescuing a friend. There are some instances where the scene plays out exactly like the real 1 vs 10 fight scene: including a speech of her wanting to fight ten people; putting down a half-eaten potato on the concrete; stepping forward while being surrounded; the ten challengers bowing before fighting; a challenger receiving chain punches while falling on the concrete; and another challenger getting the head grabbed, twisted and positioning the whole body to the ground simultaneously.
A scene has Emperor Ocean fighting off ten royal guards. Also evident during this scene is the same music used in the real 1 vs 10 fight scene as well as Emperor Ocean putting down a half-eaten apple on the ground the way Yip Man puts down the half-eaten potato on the dojo floor.
Arnold Cheng performs make-up on some volunteers and at one point applies it on a woman in a similar fashion to that of Yip Man delivering chain punches on opponents.
