Difference of 3 Years improvement for JMZ

[Whsie]

Between 1091-1093, JMZ improved with the new addition of Xiao Wu Xiang Gong. During the beggining of DGSD, JMZ using his signature- Flame Blade, was able to match up with 6 Celestial Monks+Duan Zhengming.

After capturing DY shortely, JMZ soon got his hands on 7 out of the 8 manuals of Xiao Wu Xiang Gong. 3 Years later, he finished all 7 books that he had. It is said that after mastering 7/8th of Xiao Wu Xiang Gong, JMZ's internal/skill improved.

So my question is, how much did JMZ improve?

Keep in mind that the JMZ that is compared with Yideng in speaking ability is the later JMZ.
So does that mean a DGSD beggining JMZ is weaker than Yideng?(even though Flame Blade was stated equal to Solitary Yang Finger)

well, remember that yideng also improved during the time from between LOCH and ROCH. because of XWXG and the yiyinji manual, JMZ improved as greatly in three years as a great did in about ten. the best comparison would be the level guo jing improved from the end of LOCH to the beginnig of ROCH, through JMZ suffered from fire deviation since he rushed through the whole think with the wrong mindset. JMZ was probably at the guo jing level at the beginnig of ROCH before XWXG and YIYINJI and at Guo jing level at end of ROCH after XWXG and yiyinji.

in the new edition, did JMZ still learn the YJJ? Afterall, it was yoga that YTZ practiced.

in the old edition, YTZ learned only 60% of the inner power practise but JMZ was able to benefit from the martial arts theories inside yiyinji.
in the revised version YTZ practised the yoga because he couldn't read the yiyinji which was written in sanskrit. JMZ was able to learn both in the new edition.
