Guo Jing
Guo Jing and Huang Rong embark on adventure together even though Guo's teachers, the "Seven Freaks of Jiangnan", dislike Huang and oppose Guo's decision to be with her. They meet Hong Qigong, who teaches Guo Jing the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms (降龍十八掌） to repay Huang Rong's favours of preparing fine cuisine for him every day during the brief period of time he spent with them.
