Yang Guo
In Quanzhen, Yang Guo becomes an apprentice of Zhao Zhijing, one of the apprentices of one of the senior members of the "Seven Immortals". However, Zhao holds a grudge against Guo Jing after the latter defeated him in an earlier misunderstanding. Zhao Zhijing then vents his frustration on Yang Guo after Guo Jing left. He is determined not to instruct Yang Guo in martial arts and merely teaches him the literary and verbal forms to disguise his negligence. Yang Guo is able to recite the verses smoothly but has not been taught how to apply them in actual combat.
