In 1925, Li Huitang, the Asian Football King, was knocked out during his coronation after leading Eternalis Football Club to nine consecutive championships. His soul jumped a century forward, awakening in the body of his eight-year-old great-grandson, Li Xiaotang.
Just as the club prepares for its 100th-anniversary celebration, the powerful investor abruptly announces its permanent shutdown. To protect the century-old legacy, the team's captain proposed do-or-die match that will decide the team's fate.
At the critical moment, Li Xiaotang displays his ancestor's techniques, overturning the match with a single miraculous play. His sudden talent draws the anger of a notorious match-fixer who once crippled their coach and now threatens them to throw the game, or face brutal consequences.
As the team struggles against rigged referees, drugged opponents, and calculated sabotage, injured players continue to fight, and even a retired federation chairman, once the legendary Li Huitang's student—steps forward to help them resist.
On the eve of their final battle, the soul from 1925 is suddenly pulled back, leaving the club on the brink of collapse. But just as all seems lost, the impossible happens: the legendary Li Huitang crosses time in the flesh, dons his iconic No. 9 jersey, crushes the evil syndicate, and leads the team toward reclaiming the lost football glory!
