Exquisite rhythm, almost abnormal high pressure, exciting plot, transition of negative energy explosion, editing of moving clouds and flowing water, the wrestling between master and apprentice, the violent blood pulse, the clash of fire and evil, and the roaring drums. The sheer tension and high energy throughout tell you that the world of music can also be divided into male and female.
