    Default Other than Cheung 3 Fung and Cheung Chui San, who could have carved...

    ...the Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre poem into that stone wall? It seemed to be quite an extraordinary feat. Who could have duplicated that feat other than the Mo Dong Sect founder and his fifth disciple?

    It wasn't the ability to carve letters into stone, but rather the extraordinary calligraphy skill that impressed people.

    It would not have been hard to find someone stronger than CCS but few people had both the martial and academic talent he possessed.

    CCS would have made a worthy successor to the Wu Dang school if he had lived.

    It was said that even Zhang Sanfeng would have trouble carving those letters in a spur of the moment contest if he hadn't been the inventor of it previously, so I'd venture to guess nobody would actually have succeeded in duplicating it on the spot...but I can imagine many people being able to learn it if ZSF taught them.

    Nope, Ah Zhu would have conspired with DY and XZ to nab Yelu Hongji and then Ah Zhu would disguise herself as Yelu Hongji and demob the army.

    Not sure about Fan Yao's academic knowledge, I believe he has the martial ability to carve words on stones. Hopefully I am right to say that FY carved the words on the Shaolin statues.

    Forum bug I think. I was answering one of _your_ posts about whether XF would have suicided if AZ was alive.

    I thought using your fingers to carve on rocks was an impossible feat and hence WCY admitted defeat to LCY?

    Not with his bare hands no way, but if he ever mastered Duan family swordsmanship he had both the power and scholarly skills to do so.

    Not fingers, right? This is the energy/laser from the finger.

    Does 6MSJ have the precision to write? Like blasting things is one thing, but holding the energy and writing ...

    Hmm, good question.

    By the way, any idea how Fan Yao carve the words on the Shaolin statues?
