I wonder why people that say GJ>YG would also say HR>XLN. I mean if HR can beat XLN out of intelligence by using tricks why wouldn't YG win over GJ by using tricks also, he's much more intelligent then GJ?
And is there somewhere in the book that says that Sword Maiden Technique with two personne is better than with only one person using L/R tech?
And if L/R doesn't enable XLN to perform her swordplay completly being alone then why would we think that GJ be able to both perform 9yin and 18 palm at the same time with the same efficiency as when he uses just one technique alone?
Also if we consider Dog Beating Stick to be like DG9J( but I think that's it's weaker cause no Chi breacking stance) so it wouldn't be effective against faster opponent and XLN is undisputly faster then HR.
Even if HR has better internal power it's not a valid argument alone to say HR > XLN. A lot of time we see people with better internal energy would lose to someone with less.
