These figures are fascinating to us because each of them reached the highest pinnacle of martial arts in their eras. They were thus known as "The Greats."
But wait! There were these godly figures such as the Janitor Monk of Shaolin, who could effortlessly fell a Kiu Fung or Mo Yung Bok-level fighter with a single tap...and such as Sword Demon Dook Goo Kau Bai, who apparently was more powerful than any of the men known as "Greats" during the CONDOR HEROES TRILOGY.
Do you think the existence of figures such as the Janitor Monk and Dook Goo Kau Bai makes a mockery out of the whole "Greats" concept? How "great" are our so-called "Greats" if there exist martial artists out there who would destroy them as easily the Greats would destroy low-level fighters?
