When someone asked Yang Guo vs Linghu Chong, Jinyong was probably smiling and thinking although LHC has exquisite swordsmanship, YG with his immense internal from 6-six year ocean training and the HIS with its ingenuity, "Simplicity brings superiority", would wipe the floor or finish LHC in a few stances.
Jinyong probably didn't want to say something like that because he is very diplomatic and also didn't want to offend the huge LHC's fan base
whaaaaaaaaaaat?
If you don't believe or don't like to believe or simply don't like SPW ,it is ok and nobody say anything
but please do not make fun of it
if we continue this way,a few pages later we would see some ridiculous compares like Zhao Zhijing >>>>>>>>>>>>> all of SPW character together

Well honestly no one of Lv 68 fighter or even Lv 75 fighter could "solo" pre 16 years JLFW + 3 Mongolian Mercenaries + 5 QZ Masters..
No, that ll be ridiculous, because we don't have any need to comparing them.
I only compare those can be compared, like those from same sect. Then from that comparation, I can predict the other character level. and martial art degradation as consideration. (I know this isnt always happen, like OOG elites is more like ROCH elites/ DGSD top tier despite they are during Ming dinasty. I already tried using this mindset when exploring XAJH characters, but the sect connections between novels like Wudang and Huashan, and also we know Dugu philosophy progress in ROCH, make it hard to not accept that XAJH martial art already degraded from HSDS)
Just want to support the point posted by @ruychii:
===> My analysis:
Only DGKB's 1st and 2nd sword stage do not require high internal to master.
Stage 3 (HIS), stage 4 and beyond require the practitioner to have high to immense internal to advance.
Therefore, it could be theorized with high confidence that DG9J is the 1st sword stage.
Hence, the HIS sword stage is one or two magnitudes or tiers higher than the DG9J sword stage, according to DGKB's sword progression.
@ruychii's analysis:

I think DG9J is created by DGQB during his teenage year and is perfected during his 20s. So it is before HIS. Because that is the only period where DGQB was using normal sword or flexible sword to fight his enemies. So I believe he developed all that kind of sword techniques during that time. And remember, the last technique of DG9J is fighting enemy with higher internal than himself. Which mean DGQB must encounter enemy with higher internal before, that's why he developed such technique. And I believe the only period DGQB has weaker internal is during his teenage and his 20s. Even if you say how possibly a teenage developed such profound technique, you maybe forget that it is described that DGQB was a genius in martial arts, even admitted by Yang Guo more than himself. So it is possible he developed DG9J when he was younger.
And all this make sense and connected with HIS. After he perfected DG9J with all its philosophy, you can see how DGQB think about techniques, that no pattern can overcome pattern, his way of thinking is moving towards simplicity.
So my conclusion is, DGQB started to develop DG9J in his teenage year, perfected it in his 20s, then after reaching no pattern techniques, he switch his weapon to HIS, developed more simply but powerful techniques, and then keep prgressing towards no swords.
I mean GJ/YG close to XF (DGSD Elites) level than Greats level which make DFBB also as strong as their..
