A true master of this style is one who is capable of knowing when to attack, when to defend, when to run, and when to kill, as well as knowing when their opponent will and how both of them will.
== History ==
Zhu Miao first began developing the Wolf Claw style while training under Wei Xiang to learn his Eagle Claw style, from which the joint locks and nerve attacks are derived. As he became well-versed in the art of kung fu, as well as the style his teacher taught him, he wanted to expand it to be as well-rounded as possible, which lead him to examine other teachings within Xiangling City during visits and try to incorporate them within his own style. It was the blending of various styles, as well as the honing thereof during his time spent as an assassin, that lead to the creation of the modern Wolf Claw style.
