The list should not include people that did not feature much in the series. For example, Dugu Qiu Bai and sweeper monk etc.
My 5 greats list would be XF,GJ,YG,WCY and LHC.
They are in random order.

Have I got to choose 1 from each novel or I can choose all 5 from 1 novel?
You can choose form 1 novel. Not necessary from all 5 novels.
Uhmm... greats as in what category? Greats as in excellent martial arts, or greats as in good/nice people/heroes?
xiao feng, yang guo, wang chong yang, zhang san feng and dongfangbubai
Okay, my choices:
Greats as in excellent martial arts: Sweeper Monk, WYZ, TSTL, LQS, and XF
Greats as in excellent martial arts, if limited to main characters only: XF, XZ, GJ, YG, and ZWJ
Greats as in nice/kind people: XZ, DY, GJ, ZWJ and Z3F

Don't you think YG is nice? I think he is not bad.Originally Posted by rabadi
5 greats:
1.qiaofeng
2.xu zhu
3.murong bo
4.xiao yuan san
5.tiansan tonglao
yes i didnt choose anyone from loch or roch cus i dont think any of them can match these 5 juggernauts
GJ, XF, XZ, DY & LHC
Les Arts Martiaux!
"En Garde","Fleche Enflammee"!!
To me, Great should represent both skill and character. Therefore, my 5 Greats are
1. GJ (ROCH)
2. ZSF (HSDS)
3. H7G (LOCH/ROCH)
4. Head Monk of Tian Long Temple (DGSD)
5. (cannot decide this last one but, if I have to choose, I probably choose the Da Li emperor (DY's uncle in DGSD) )
I weight more on character aspect (nevertheless, my Greats should have reasonably high skill). Therefore, in term of the martial art or fighting skill, those might not be the best (my #4 is about one or two level below XF/JMZ but, honestly, I don't feel XF/XZ/DY/XYS/MRB/TSTL/LQS/JMZ/+etc. are great in my standard). Also, note that no one from SOD meet my 'great' standard.

1) Xiao Feng. 'nuff said. He is and forever will be the "lao da" of Jinyonology to me.
2) Ren Woxing. Aside from the (not great) way he was portrayed in adaptations, I love his temperament, his brilliant intelligence, and his absolute wittiness. The 3 duels at Shaolin scene is still one of my favorites simply because of the way he carries on and banters. He's a real showstopper.
3) Dugu Qiubai. What can I say? There is, for me at least, a very poignant feeling when imagining this guy, wandering the "world" for decades, never being able to find a match, or even a person capable of making him defend himself. Very self-consciously tragic, but there's a certain sad beauty to it nonetheless.
4) Duan Yanqing. Despite being a really bad baddy, this guy moves and impresses me. Despite being crippled so badly and deposed, he still manages to become an elite martial artist and a highly skilled practitioner of Yiyang Zhi, and never gives up his ambition to regain what (really is) he views as rightfully his. His sheer willpower impresses me. That, and I still get a chuckle each of the time I think about his situation with Duan Zhengchun. DZC tried so many times w/so many different women, yet was only able to produce daughters, and yet, DYQ got one shot with DZC's wife, and was able to produce a son. We can clearly deduce who possesses the true "long mai" in the Duan family . He's one baddy that you just gotta like and respect.
5) Hong Qigong. That last speech to Qiu Qianren in LOCH he made? Wowsa. This guy clearly is the number one true Hero at the time of LOCH, and even in LOCH, when Guo Jing is arguably a bigger 'ying xiong', H7G is still the universally respected guy in Wulin who they want to become the Wulin's leader.
