One thing I don't like about Jin Yong is he wrote down the main character's similar-aged rivals too much. Murong Fu, Yang Kang, Ou Yangke, Song Qingshu, Lin Pingzhi all look pretty pathetic compared to the main character. Yang Guo doesn't even have a rival. I wish he had written the same aged bad guys to be more complex and with similar martial arts level as the main guys. I understand, though, that crafting a strong, dark, complex vilain is not Jin Yong's strong suit.
