Luo Guangyu
And today Xiaobian wants to talk to you about this Mr. Luo Guangyu, he is a generation of famous giants in the Seven Star Mantis Fist Sect. So what about Mr. Luo Guangyu's martial arts attainments? In other words, how high is his martial arts attainment? Next, Xiaobian will give you a careful analysis.
First of all, from Luo Guangyu's martial arts resume.
Mr. Luo Guangyu was born in 1889 in Penglai District, Yantai, Shandong Province, and in 1906 he officially entered Mr. Fan Xudong (known as "Fan Giant", a generation of mantis boxing kings) to learn boxing, and obtained the essence of Fan Lao's mantis boxing skills.

Moreover, Luo Guangyu's daily practice was still extremely hard after he became a master. It is reported that when Luo Guangyu was teaching boxing at the Shanghai Jingwu Association, he was still able to insist on practicing no less than 40 sets of boxing sets every day (this perseverance of practicing is indeed admirable).
In addition, Luo Guangyu's kung fu skills have been even more internal and external, and his eighteen Arhat Gong Methods, The Split Ribs and Pulse Point Acupuncture Techniques, and iron sand palms are all very accomplished. It is said that when Luo Guangyu fights with people, his palm wind can make people shudder.
Secondly, from the perspective of Luo Guangyu's martial arts career.
As early as 1919, Mr. Luo Guangyu had already begun to teach boxing at the Shanghai Jingwu Association, and he himself was even known as one of the "Four Great Boxers of Jingwu". Later, in 1932, Mr. Luo Guangyu was sent by the Jingwu Society to teach in branches in Guangdong and Hong Kong. Since then, the Seven Star Mantis Fist technique has been widely spread in the mainland Guangdong and Hong Kong regions.
When it comes to the fact that the Jingwu Association hired a mantis boxing master to teach boxing, the person that the Jingwu Association actually wanted to hire at that time was Originally Mr. Xudong, Luo Guangyu's en teacher (Mr. Luo Guangyu was not the first choice of the Jingwu Association at that time). However, after Mr. Fan Xudong received the invitation from the Jingwu Association, his old man politely refused on the grounds of his advanced age, and strongly recommended his beloved disciple Luo Guangyu to go to this important task.
But in fact, Mr. Fan Xudong was also 44 years old at the time, and Luo Guangyu had just turned 30 years old, which showed that Fan Xudong's old age was just an excuse. As for the reason why Mr. Fan Xudong recommended Luo Guangyu, in addition to Fan Lao's trust in his apprentice Luo Guangyu's boxing skills, his old man's intention to help the apprentice was also obvious.
Mr. Luo Guangyu has been busy with the development of martial arts all his life, and the disciples he has taught are numerous, among which the more famous boxing masters are Yu Lejiang, Pan Hongchang, Ma Chengxin, Zhang Shihou, Huang Jinhong, Lin Boyan, Zhao Xinmin, Huang Hanxun and Guo Zishuo.
Until 1944, Mr. Luo Guangyu, the grandmaster of the Mainland Mantis Fist Generation, unfortunately passed away (at the age of 55).
