In the books, Qiao Feng is one of, if not the best fighter of his time in the Martial World, and an interesting character. I am really looking forward to this. Hopefully Donnie Yen will show off his skills apart from CGI. BATTLE WIZARD only covers a ridiculous little part of the books, and few of the actual main characters (which is understandable as there are 5 tomes and the movie is really short) while in DRAGON CHRONICLES the source material is barely recognizable. So hopefully this movie will do Jin Yong some justice, as it's a really amazing epic tale.
