In Hinduism, Martial Arts were invented by none other than Vishnu himself. At least, surprisingly enough, the incarnation of Vishnu concerned with peace. In Hinduism, it is not quite polytheism, so much as Vishnu having many different incarnations, one of them being the "god of peace." The incarnation of Vishnu concerned with peace surprisingly enough, NOT Kali, is the one credited with inventing martial arts.
