~~There are six primary~~ ~~[[Nanto Sei Ken|~~~~Nanto Sei Ken~~]] ~~masters~~, ~~the '~~''Nanto ~~Rokusei Ken~~''~~' (~~~~南斗六聖拳~~, ~~''Six Sacred Fists of~~ Nanto~~'')~~, to correspond to the six stars in the [[Nanto Roku Sei|Nanto Roku Sei]] constellation. Each member of the Rokusei is destined to follow the star they represent, and each fate was awakened at its own time independent of the other Rokusei. Originally each of the six masters was a guard at each of the six gates of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_of_China emperor]'s palace. When [[Yuda|Yuda]] betrayed the Nanto Roku Sei Ken by joining [[Raoh|Raoh]], the Nanto stars went into disarray, summoning Hokuto to restore order.
