The world consists of five elements: gold, wood, water, fire and earth. In the wizard world of "Magic to Win", the story also revolves around the "Five Element Wizardry", portraying a story that surpasses our imagination.
Kang Sengui (Raymond Wong), a university professor, is the Water Magician of the "Five Elements Wizardry". Although he uses magic spells in his daily life, he keeps his powers a secret from his peers. One night, his power is accidentally transmitted to his student, Macy (Karena Wu), after they were both struck by lightning. Macy begins recklessly using her newfound powers for personal gain and money-making with advertising help from her roommates.
Meanwhile, Bi Yewu, an ambitious Fire Magician, sets out on a mission to capture the elemental magicians in order to open a time rift in an attempt to change history and save his parents who perished in a fire in his youth. He captures Wood Magician Gu Xinyue, an author with precognitive gifts; and later confronts and captures Earth Magician Ling Feng. Macy encounters Ling Feng's amnesiac spirit, and slowly begins to realize there is more to magic than just profit. Professor Kang promises to teach her to use magic properly.
Bi Yewu captures Charlie, a renowned magician and Metal Magician. Finally, he comes for Professor Kang, only to realize Macy has his power. With all magicians gathered, Bi Yewu combines their powers to open the rift. The world is put on the moment of doom. Inside the rift, Bi Yewu is unable to alter history. Professor Kang, who regained his powers after another shockwave collision between him and Macy, convinces him to keep moving forward. Gu Xinyue and Charlie escape confinement while Macy rejoins Ling Feng's body and soul. With all five magicians together, they close the rift.
Sometime later, Macy and her volleyball team enters an intense match that ends with them winning. This victory proves Macy is far more capable than she realizes, even without magic. Professor Kang is promoted to vice principal. And Bi Yewu redeems himself.
