The order of the Templar knights was indeed, "wiped out": which means that just changed their name ( the survivors).
The Teutonic Knights in Germany and the Order of Christ in Portugal are but 2 examples.
I would equate them to the Shaolin monks though.
Shaolin Monks were Monks that happened to do some MA, very few of them by the way.
The Templar were warriors that became monks and the order was 100% military.
Psalms 144:1
Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
