Dugu Qiubai Martial Arts

[Dirt]

How good do you think it is? Why do you think it is so?

I posted this about a week ago; Its on topic.

Dugu Qiubai's (as described in ROCH) skill can be roughly estimated by looking at the following:

1) How the condor could kick the sh*t out of an already skilled Yang Guo.
2) How difficult an already skilled Yang Guo found the river training, and how profound an effect it had on him. The condor would not have forced Yang Guo to do it if it was not something Dugu Qiubai was doing. And even after Yang Guo had some successes, the condor didn't give a sh*t and wasn't happy. This shows he wasn't even close (at that point) to Dugu's level.
3) (The Most Significant) How difficult a post Heavy-Iron-Sword-possibly Greats Level Yang Guo found the ocean training. Again, the condor would not have knew to make Yang Guo travel for 1 month to reach the ocean if it wasn't one of Dugu's training methods.

Based on the above, it seems obvious that Dugu Qiubai ain't fakin' da funk (even though his actual level is still unknown)

Do we know for sure that the condor is a disciple of DGQB not vice versa. I mean the condor could just be telling YG to bow to his elder martial brother.

didnt it say something on the rocks like, "ive wandered around not finding a match, so now im stuck living with only this bird as a companion"? cause that makes it clear the condor was not his master

LOL, come on, you made it sound so pessimistic when it's supposed to be cool as hell.

HAHAHA well, it helped to make the point that he doesnt see the bird as his master.

I always imagined Dugu's relationship with the condor to be like Alex Man's with that Daimun bird in Buddha's Palm. Know what i mean?
