Duan Yu would suit it fine though.

well, everyone has their own style...XF might just style it differently...although i may defeat some purpose

Yep. I think it greatly depends on the person who's executing the moves.

It was written by Jin Yong that Yang Guo looked like a dancing girl when he performed the Ancient Tomb kungfu (esp in the 1st Hero Gathering in ROCH) so yeah, it's kinda...gay*. No he didn't look handsome.


* Obligatory footnote: not that there's anything wrong with that.

no...im pretty sure jin yong said he turned it from looking like a "pretty girl" to "xiao sa"...can't find a direct translation for the word.

'xiao sa' is charming, right?

Dashing is more appropriate. Charming can be used for male/female. Xiao Sa is almost exclusively used on males.

Well if Xiao Feng did it, it wouldn't be the Orchid Flower Hand, it'll turn into something like the Genocidal Dragon in Gale of Petals.

Well I read the Vietnamese translation so I missed that "xiao sa" thing, but then when you exhibit "Beautiful Woman's Fists" and stuff like that, it's hard not to look effeminate.

I think it is because of the first verison. I wonder have they even begin to translate the 2nd verison yet.

Guys like YG and LHC could probably carry off doing skills like the Orchid Hands and make it look cool but not gay. But Xiao Feng and Guo Jing types would make the onlookers puke.

[Anonymous]

Nah, XiaoFeng's probably change "orchid hand" into "orchid hand extreme [bloody]"

Oh no. Of course she's not at GJ's level. HR is good but definitely not as good as GJ even at the beginning of ROCH.

[Thai guy]

Yes, Guo Xiang correctly described her parents. It is impossible that Huang Rong's martial art skill is better than GJ since GJ can be regarded as one of The Greats.

[philip]

well, huang rong was nominated to be a great too, but she declined...i think.

true, huang rong was not as good a guo jin in ROCH, but i think she could have if she wanted to be...pure talent. Too bad she didn't care too much for kung fu and went on to concentrate on other stuff.

[Thai guy]

Yes, Huang Rong was nominated to be one of the Greats in ROCH but she refused it. Even though she accepted it, I wonder very much whether at that time (the end of ROCH), XLN's martial art skills are very much better than Huang Rong or not. Maybe, XLN is even more suitable to be one of the Greats.

[philip]

er...she was also nominated as a great b/c gumu is very close to zhong nan mountain...but she also declined. whutz up w/ these people? i wouldn't mind being a great

[Thai guy]

So, at the end of ROCH, whose kongfu is better between HR and XLN?

Debatable. Personally I'm leaning towards XLN.

[superboy]

I like HR better, so I'll pick her. Her Dog Beating Stick and Peach Flower Island kung fus isn't shabby.
