Monthly Review	The most senior inner disciple in Zhao Huo's dormitory, he reviews the outsider disciples' Contribution each month. His lines are the same every month. "Mm, I know you're the only outsider disciple left, but rules are rules. Don't blame your Senior Brother for being a stickler."

Senior Brother Who Switched to Fists and Palms

Yu Zhu Joins the Tang Clan

He asks Yu Zhu whether she is the legendary Bone-Cracking Demon. Hearing that Yu Zhu has come to study, he welcomes her warmly and wants to ask her to forge him a divine weapon. When his fellow disciples egg him on, he may chime in that Yu Zhu's sudden outburst gave him a fright.

Weapon Inspection

He finds Wrist Guards a nuisance and never wears them, and has long since lost track of where his went; his uniform has holes in it too. After the Fourth Senior Brother announces the equipment inspection, he urgently asks Zhao Huo to fill out his Equipment first, saying he'll pay extra. His reaction on inspection day depends on how much Zhao Huo helped at the Forge: If Zhao Huo helped all the way, he thanks him and says they're set now, and mentions that while studying elsewhere he learned another sect's martial arts and switched to Fists and Palms, so the only Tang Clan equipment he has left is a uniform. If Zhao Huo helped as much as he could, he thanks him but says it was a rush job and barely serviceable. If Zhao Huo helped halfway and then gave up, he blames Zhao Huo for leaving him short of equipment. If Zhao Huo didn't help at all, he's sweating with nerves and asks why Zhao Huo still wears his Wrist Guard. When Zhao Huo says that's what makes him look like a Tang Clan Disciple, he replies: "You were always a Tang Clan Disciple. Even bare-arsed and naked, you'd still be a Tang Clan Disciple."

Foul-Mouthed Senior Brother

Yu Zhu Joins the Tang Clan

He butts in to say Yu Zhu is up to her neck in debt, and he turns out to be right. He advises Yu Zhu not to mix with "an ugly man like Junior Martial Brother Zhao", and Yu Zhu shouts back, "You're asking for a beating." Afterward he complains about whatever love potion Zhao Huo fed Yu Zhu. He may get dirty looks from his fellow disciples and be called foul-mouthed by the female disciples, and protests that everyone used to mock Zhao Huo together.

Weapon Inspection

After hearing the Fourth Senior Brother announce the penalties for the equipment inspection, he wails that anyone missing the basic four pieces will be worked to death.

Traitor Duo

Qingcheng Study	Resentful of life in the Tang Clan, he volunteered to carry the unconscious Zhao Huo to Qingcheng, and by then he had already resolved never to return to the Tang Clan. He came back to the Tang Clan to deliver word, was later bought off and turned traitor by Duan Zhixiu, tried to talk Zhao Huo into defecting with him, and even set his sights on Ye Yunshang's treasure map. Zhao Huo and his Senior Brother cut him down.
Tang Clan of Guangzhou	A disciple of the Tang Clan of Guangzhou.
Western Wulin	He calls the Third Senior Brother Sect Leader and Senior Martial Uncle. He reports news of letters from sects outside Shu.

Third Senior Brother's Disciples

A disciple of the Third Senior Brother, he calls the Third Senior Brother Master, yet calls Zhao Huo Senior Brother. Sent as an envoy to the small and mid-sized sects of Shu.

Western Wulin	A disciple of the Third Senior Brother. Sent as an envoy to the small and mid-sized sects of Shu.
Western Wulin	Defending the Outer Fort, he sees Zhao Huo's plan succeed and hails Zhao Huo as the Fledgling Phoenix Reborn. "Our Senior Brother Zhao is smarter than that Pang Tong of the Three Kingdoms, longer-lived, and uglier!" "Smarter! Longer-lived! Uglier!"

Xiahou Lan Discusses Martial Arts

A disciple the Third Senior Brother took on after the civil war, gifted and clever, who calls Zhao Huo Senior Brother. While Xiahou Lan is staying at the Tang Clan, he comes to the Training Ground to find Zhao Huo. Wanting to show off before a beauty, he throws himself into his moves and asks her to critique his martial arts, then talks back when she criticizes him. Xiahou Lan may strike him herself and crack his ribs. After waking in the Alchemy Room, unable to work out a counter, he ambushes Zhao Huo to see how his Senior Brother breaks the move. If Zhao Huo is hit, he thinks even his Senior Brother can't take this move. If Zhao Huo dodges and points out the flaw in his mindset, he has an epiphany, and once healed goes to thank Xiahou Lan, only to have another rib broken. If Zhao Huo takes him in hand and teaches him a lesson, he may be saved and then tremble at the sight of Zhao Huo and his disciple for the rest of his life, or he may be beaten to death by Zhao Huo and pushed off a cliff to destroy the body. Xiahou Lan may instead spar with Zhao Huo as a demonstration, with him and the Junior Martial Uncle watching from the side. If Zhao Huo wins, one of the two spends the next ten years compiling a "Beauty and Ugly Man Fist", and the other spends twenty years mastering it and becomes an expert of the age.
