    Default Who else could have mastered Left/Right Hand Technique?

    In Jin Yong's canon, only three people ever mastered the Left/Right Hand Technique: its creator Chow Bak Tung, Gwok Jing, and Little Dragon Girl. In your opinion, which other Jin Yong characters had the right kind of mind for mastering this technique?

    Duan Yu. Innocent enough.

    Feng Qing Yang and Linghu Chong. Dugu 9 Jian is a skill that works by countering the attacker's move, in other words, extreme focus.

    Z3F and ZWJ.

    Guo Xiang.

    To learn L/R Hand Skill you should be become "simple minded" not just "innocent" while the people you mentioned is quite "smart" especially Wuji and GX you they are couldn't learn L/R Hand Skill by logic though they have "pure" heart..

    I think the requirement is the learner needs to be simple-minded to the point where they just act instinctively. Young ZWJ could also learn it, but the ZWJ at the end of the novel definitely couldn't.

    Shi Potian can do it. Other maybes: Yin Li, Xu Zhu, the Condor (lol).

    He Zudao could have probably mastered in his later years when he became more enlightened. He was already doing decent progress in his arrogant younger days and his humbling at Shaolin would have helped him (became a better person with better understanding) unless he stopped practicing martial arts.

    Also I wonder if he developed the skill by himself or taught by ZBT in a chance meeting.
