In Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels, most of the male protagonists are strong in martial arts, and few people can be rivaled. Moreover, compared with other top masters in the jianghu, they are still very young, and basically before the age of forty, the martial arts can reach the top level.
If you want to choose a person with the highest martial arts among many male protagonists, I am afraid that there will be great controversy, but if you want to choose a person with the highest martial arts talent, it is Yang Guo.
Yang Guo is one of the male protagonists with the highest martial arts in Mr. Jin Yong's pen, and he is also one of the most handsome, most charismatic and most popular male protagonists.
In terms of talent in martial arts alone, Yang Guo can be said to be the only one among many male protagonists. He is intelligent, highly perceptive, determined and innovative.
Whether it is the speed and understanding of learning martial arts, or the application and flexibility in actual combat, or the summary and innovation after the war, Yang Guo is much stronger than other male protagonists. It is precisely because of his outstanding talent that he is ultimately a master of all the families, a school of his own, and has created a set of martial arts of his own.
When it comes to Yang's martial arts progress, it can be roughly divided into three periods, one is before the broken arm, the second is after the broken arm, and the third is sixteen years after the broken arm.
As we all know, Yang Guo before the broken arm, the martial arts are not high, but the specific level, but few people know.
In this article, we will talk about this topic, combined with the description in the novel, analyze Yang Guo before the broken arm, what is the level of martial arts.
Although Yang's martial arts can be roughly divided into three periods, in fact, these three periods can be subdivided. Before the severed arm, Yang Guo's martial arts can actually be divided into several periods, because he has been making rapid progress, not static.
Yang guo learned martial arts, starting from a young age, and learned some superficial martial arts with his mother Mu Nianci. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he learned the introductory mental method of "Toad Gong" with Ouyang Feng in Jiaxing.
Later, he was taken back to Peach Blossom Island by Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and then he switched to the Quanzhen Sect and learned the Xuanmen Authentic Internal Gong Mind Method. Later, he switched to the Tomb Sect and learned the tomb sect's introductory martial arts and core martial arts "Jade Girl Heart Sutra" with master Xiaolongnu. Later, in a secret room of the ancient tomb, he learned part of the Nine Yin True Scriptures, which was left by Wang Chongyang, the founder of the Quanzhen Sect. After learning the original Nine Yin True Scriptures, he learned the reverse version of the True Scriptures with Ouyang Feng, as well as the core mental method of "Toad Gong".
After learning these things, Yang Guo's first stage of learning was over, and he immediately began his journey to the rivers and lakes.
Yang Guo, who has just entered the jianghu, what is the level of martial arts?
First of all, we can be sure that Yang Guo's martial arts at this time have surpassed the three generations of disciples of the Quanzhen Sect.
As early as the time of the Ultimate South Mountain, Yang Guo had defeated Zhao Zhijing and Yin Zhiping, and these two were precisely the two with the highest martial arts among the three generations of disciples of the Quanzhen Sect.
Secondly, we can be sure that Yang's martial arts skills are not as good as Li Moxuan's, nor as good as Darba and Huodu.
Li Moxuan didn't need to say much, at that time, Yang Guo couldn't even catch up with half of her level. As for Darba and Huodu, when the Great Victory over the Guan Hero Conference, although Yang Guo won them, he mainly relied on wisdom, and if he really talked about martial arts, the gap was quite large.
Each of these kung fu is incomparably exquisite, with a lifetime of energy and wisdom to delve into the exploration, it is difficult to look at its end, he picked a scale in the east, half a claw in the west, but none of the kung fu practiced to a truly first-class realm. When encountering inferior opponents, shi shows a variety of skills and dazzling, but when encountering the top masters, they cannot help but dwarf each other, and they are still inferior to the disciples of the Golden Wheel Guoshi, Darba and Huo. ...... (New revision of "Eagle Hero")
Darba and Huo Du can be said to be the threshold of first-class, and at this time, Yang Guo's martial arts have obviously not yet reached the first-class level.
According to the description in the novel, at this time, Yang Guo's martial arts were similar to Yelüqi's, and Yelüqi's martial arts were not inferior to Sun Buji's.
In other words, at that time, Yang Guo already had the level of Quanzhen's Seven Sons, but only the weakest Level of Sun Bu'er, far inferior to Qiu Chuji, Ma Yu, Wang Chuyi, Liu Chuxuan, Hao Datong and others.
During this time, Yang Guo learned several martial arts, including the "Dog Fighting Stick Method" taught by Hong Qigong and Huang Rong, and the "Jade Sword Method" and "Finger Magic" taught by Huang Yaoshi.
However, although Yang Guoxue had a lot of martial arts, for the time being, there was no benefit. As the Golden Wheel King said, although he is wonderful in his eclecticism, he is inevitably mixed but not refined, refuted and impure. He plucked a scale in the east and half a claw in the west, but none of the martial arts were practiced to a truly first-class realm, and when he encountered a second-class opponent, the display was certainly varied and dazzling, but if he encountered a top master, it was inevitably dwarfed.
After being reminded by the Golden Wheel King, Yang Guo was deeply aware of the drawbacks of his martial arts, but these martial arts were all top-notch martial arts, and he had learned them with great difficulty, so how could he easily give up and specialize in one of them?
Thinking about it, Yang Guo decided to absorb the strengths of all the families, become a family of his own, and create a martial art of his own. The world's martial arts are all created by people, since others can do it, can't they?
After thinking through everything, Yang Guo suddenly became enlightened and firmed up his path in martial arts. And this experience is also the most critical turning point in his martial arts!
Since then, Yang Guo's strength has been steadily improving, and the experience of Absolute Love Valley and Xiangyang City has further promoted his growth, because during this time, he has constantly fought with real masters and confirmed what he thinks. For example, the Valley of Absolute Love fought against Gongsun Zhi several times, and Xiangyang City fought against the Golden Wheel King several times.
So what level of martial arts did Yang Guo finally reach before the severed arm?
First of all, we can be sure that Yang Guo in this period has crossed the level of martial arts and reached a first-class level, because he has won the martial arts three links by relying on martial arts alone.
Wu San Tong "Ah Yo" did not have time to exhale, only to feel the other party's palm on his left shoulder lightly patted, followed by Yang Guo smiled and said: "Old Uncle Wu, your third finger is so powerful." He lowered his hand and withdrew, saying miserably: "Hey hey, when the real hero is a teenager, the old man is not useful." ”...... (New revision of "Eagle Hero")
Although the confrontation between Yang Guo and Wu Santong was short, it could be seen that he had already won. Although he was still modest in his mouth, the truth was that he had won, and the martial arts three links had also been obeyed. Combined with the performance of the Absolute Love Valley and Xiangyang City, Yang Guo's performance in the Great War of the Golden Wheel King, Xiao Xiangzi, Nemo Xing, Gongsun Zhi and others, it is not difficult to see that his martial arts have crossed the first-class threshold.
The martial arts of Wu San Tong were similar to those of Dian Cang Yu Yin, although slightly inferior to Hao Datong, Darba, Huo Du and others, but they were also similar. Through comparison, it is not difficult to see that Yang Guo at this time is at least the level of the above-mentioned people.
Secondly, we can be sure that Li Moxuan is no longer sure to win against Yang Guo.
During the battle for Xiao Guoxiang, Li Moxuan and Yang Guo briefly exchanged hands in a cave, and the result was that Yang Guo had the upper hand. Although Yang Guo took advantage of the environment, he could not deny his strength because of this.
His sword technique was both wonderful, his eyes were clear, Li Mo was full of listening to the art of the wind discerning device, although it did not lose any sense, but after a few moves, it was already dangerous, finally Yang Guo cared about the child, only afraid that the sword bottom was too strong, she then stabbed the child, so she did not kill. ...... (New revision of "Eagle Hero")
Li Mo was worried about this person, usually very cautious, since he was deceived by Yang Guo at Feng Mofeng's blacksmith shop, he had always thought that he had made great progress in martial arts and might not be able to deal with it himself. But in fact, the author personally believes that in terms of martial arts alone, Yang Guo at this time is still a little worse than Li Moxuan.
On this point, from Huang Yaoshi's speculation and Yang Guo's performance, it can also be seen that he is not as confident as he is against Li Moxuan as he is against Shangwu Three Links.
Li Moxuan's martial arts were probably comparable to Zhu Ziliu's, and Zhu Ziliu was stronger than Wang Zhiyi, Hao Datong, Darba, Huo Du and others. Although Yang's martial arts were inferior to Li Moxuan's, they were not inferior to Hao Datong, Darba, Huo Du and others, and may even be stronger.
Through comparison, it can be concluded that Yang Guo's martial arts level at this time is most likely comparable to that of Wang Chuyi.
In summary, Yang Guo, who was in the strongest state before the broken arm, was probably equivalent to Wang Chuyi in martial arts, and it could also be more powerful, comparable to Li Moxuan, and of course, it might be almost the same, comparable to Hao Datong, Darba, Huo Du and others, but in any case, it was at a first-class level.
