The literary style of the Liang Dynasty was at its peak, the martial style was declining, and the people's physical fitness was weak. The protagonist Lin Zhuoyan was originally a frail and poor Confucian scholar who failed many tests and was bullied. An accidental fall into the water, and when he was about to die, he actually received part of the memory inheritance of the ancient "ball god" Chi You (the legendary ancestor of Cuju). This inheritance not only includes the miraculous Cuju skills, but also a unique breathing method that can strengthen the body through exercise. In order to get rid of poverty and strengthen his body, Lin Zhuoyan decided to give up the imperial examination and form a Cuju team of his own. He selected a group of teammates from the countryside who were regarded as "crooked melons and dates" but each had their own strengths. Using the tactics and training methods remembered by the football god, he played all the way from county-level competitions to the state capital, and then to the national competition "Qiyun Society", repeatedly defeating the strong and creating miracles. In the process, he not only gained fame and wealth, met heroes from all walks of life, but also fell in love with Qin Shuangyue, the female bodyguard leader who had a bloody feud. In the end, Lin Zhuoyan led his "Jinghong Cuju Team" to represent Daliang in the Cuju Competition of All Nations, defeating powerful enemies and bringing glory to the country. He also used the influence of Cuju to promote the trend of a national sports power and completely changed the spiritual outlook of an era.
