Xiao Long Nu vs. Ling Wu Chong

[endo]

Was this ever discussed?

Both relied on the speed and technique of their swordsmanship and not necessarily their inner power. Who would win in this fight?


XLN's technique: L/R combo of QZ and Jade Maiden swordsmanship

LWC's technique: DG9J

[Dirt]

I think it was Athena that postulated that XLN was as fast as Dong Fang Bu Bai.

XLN wins since LHC wouldn't fight with a chic if i'm not mistaken

[Thai guy]

In the fight, technique and internal energy are both important. We have never known LHC's level of internal energy but I doubt that it was not that good. XLN's internal energy though can be much better even she was not yet at the Great level. Her sword style is fast and it is the combination of both 9 Yin and Jade Maiden, two top sword styles of the time. Thus, I vote for her.

[Dirt]

Actually, it's Quan Zhen Sword Skill (Wang Chongyang) + Jade Maiden Sword Skill (Ling Chaoying) + L/R Hand Technique (Zhou Botong).

In many ways, Xiao Longnu is the true inheritor of Wang Chongyang's martial arts legacy.

i was thinking in the same lines! Lol! I don't think that was part of his character but that was the first thought that came into my mind.

he fought with Dongfang Bubai

[PJ]

Was this ever discussed?

Yep.

Verdict: Dragon Girl wins.

Reason: The sole reason that Dongfang Bubai kicked the 3 warriors' a$$ is that he was insannely fast. Dragon Girl is even insannely faster, so Linghu Chong will have zero chance.

hehe i wouldn't classify DFBB as a woman...maybe 3/4

DFBB is an eunuch who use to be a man so I wouldn't classify him in either Male nor Female category. There should be a Eunuch Category since so much wuxia characters castrate themselves so they could learn some powerful martial arts.

[ChronoReverse]

Statement. XLN would win, but not completely due to her speed. The sword technique she uses doesn't have openings and that combined with her speed will beat out LHC.

Caveat. If LHC could hold out until XLN's internal energy is drained away, then he'll win.

Aside. I wasn't really convinced that XLN was as fast as DFBB in terms of short distance melee combat (although still blindingly fast since she can keep control over a rather large number of birds). In terms of medium-distance lightness kungfu I believe that she was definitely superior.

IF XLN is even faster than DFBB, and DFBB ruled over those 3 ONLY because of speed, then it shows how weak XAJH characters are compared to LOCH/ROCH, cause XLN could be beaten easily enough by quite a few characters there.

[Whsie]

Yeah...., if LHC would ignore the fact that XLN is a girl, then I think LHC may possibly win. In the Demonic levels, if you have reached the Xuan Metal stage or higher, then you should be able to counter XLN's single Jade Maiden by using pure devastating force. The Xuan level would probably break both swords in one fatal blast. I can't exactly say for Dugu 9 Swords though... IF LHC trully masters the Dugu 9 Sword, than he has a chance. However, my reason for LHC to win is because of Star Absorbing technique. Star Absorbing techique works across weapons and physical contacts. And correct me if I'm wrong, I read in somewhere in the beginning Book 3 I think that Star Absorbing technique is like Bei ming+Hua Gong Da Fa; however, it favors more to the Hua Gong Da Fa's side.

As for the internal, I think LHC is higher. Let me think...., LHC absorbed parts of Peach 6 fairies, some of the monk (I don't remember the name), 2nd of 4 brothers completely, some of Zuo Lin Chang's junior's energy through the sword, absorbed all of the thief's internal when Zuo Lin Chang's pai attacked the nuns, absorbed a lot of the stronger Yue Bu Chun (with pixie sword). At this point, I think LHC has already surpassed XLN.

If he did not, he then learned YJJ ( even if it's a deterioted version, it's still not bad). Then for sure, LHC would surpass XLN internally wise.

[Whsie]

ah ha, I found it. "RWX drank some whine, and said 'this Xi Xin Da Fa, created during North Song's Xiao Yiao Pai, split into Bei Ming Shen Gong and Hua Gong Da Fa two sets. Later, Dali's Duan Faimly and Xin Chen Pai separetly passed it down, combined into one , became Xi Xin Da Fa, but it still mainly inherited Hua Gong Da Fa's way....'" (beginning of Book 3 when LHC is drinking whine with RWC and XWT)

The Duan family can't pass down Beiming Shengong, the scroll was burnt and Duan Yu didn't know enough of it...

I think DFBB is way faster than XLN.

I don't know, but that was a DIRECT english translation (there's a reason why it's in quotations...) of the 2nd edition of XAJH. Go look it up yourself. I gave you the section. And maybe Xuzhu gave it to him, who knows?

[PJ]

I think DFBB is way faster than XLN.

This has also been a topic of tremendous debate. But from the descriptions from the novels, many believe Dragon Girl is faster.

Really hard to say. I believe in short range, DFBB is blazing. XLN is faster for long distance.

Overall, I'll still probably go with XLN a bit more just because the book says that Tomb Sect's qinggong is one of the best in the world.

[Extremer88]

Really hard to say. I believe in short range, DFBB is blazing. XLN is faster for long distance.

So we could say that DFBB has better anticipation and reaction, while XLN has better stamina?
