Li Kaixuan, a modern-day frustrated basketball coach, accidentally traveled to the end of the war-torn Eastern Han Dynasty and became a low-level civil servant in charge of ordnance under Liu Bei.
Facing the disorganized ancient army, he came up with an unconventional idea - to train troops using the concepts of modern basketball!
Pig bladders were made into "war balls" and the campsite was used as a golf course. Meng Zhang Fei became his first "problem player", Guan Yunchang looked on with cold eyes, the protagonist Liu Bei was doubtful, and his colleague Mi Fang was waiting to see his jokes.
From the "military child's play" that was ridiculed by everyone, to the "Martial Arts League" that united the military's morale; from the "diplomatic gambling battle" that resolved friction, to the "World Conference" that shocked Xudu...
Li Kaixuan relied on his tactical thinking and team philosophy that transcended the times to build this sport into the most unexpected force in troubled times. It is not only a weapon for military training, but also a diplomatic bargaining chip, a political stage and a torch to gather people's hearts.
However, when Cao Cao's cold cavalry marched south, declaring that "the battle in the world is about bows and horses, not games", Li Kaixuan and his team faced the ultimate test: Can the teamwork they believe in survive in the real jungle of troubled times?
This is a passionate counterattack, a wonderful cultural collision, and a little man who stirred up the legend of the entire Three Kingdoms era with a ball and a belief!
