The "martial arts" and "chivalrous" in Jin Yong's martial arts novels are important elements in Chinese traditional culture, with profound cultural implications and historical origins. "Martial arts" referred to physical training. The ability to master martial arts was a way of physical and mental training. In Jin Yong's novels, many characters could improve their martial arts skills and gain a foothold in Jianghu by practicing hard. At the same time," Wu " also represented the status and honor of Jianghu. Many protagonists in Jianghu displayed a strong martial force and fearless spirit by defeating strong enemies and protecting the weak to uphold justice. "Chivalry" referred to the spirit and behavior of serving justice, protecting the weak, and fighting evil. In Jin Yong's novels, many characters had a chivalrous heart. They took it upon themselves to help the weak and fight against evil, becoming respected heroes in Jianghu. At the same time,"chivalrous" also embodied a kind of moral concept and code of conduct, such as "justice is paramount","eliminate the violent and appease the good","do not seek personal gain" and so on. In Jin Yong's wuxia novels,"martial arts" and "chivalrous" were opposites and unified existences. Through "martial arts", one could show the strength and status of Jianghu.

In the process of reading, the readers can feel the existence of this opposition and unity, and draw profound cultural implications and life philosophy from it.
