Quick Synopsis

After their parents' deaths, six martial artists rescue the boys and decide to raise them separately, each training them in martial arts with the plan that they will meet again as adults to see who has become the stronger fighter. Guo Jing is taken in and taught by the group known as the "Seven Freaks of Jiangnan," while Yang Kang is accidentally adopted by a Jurchen prince and grows up as his foster son.

Detailed Synopsis of The Brave Archer

Guo Jing and Yang Kang are the sons of two rebels. The rebels are killed by imperial soldiers and the boys are rescued by six pugilists later. The pugilists agree to separate the two boys, tutor them separately in martial arts, and let them meet again when they have grown up, to determine whose abilities are better. Guo becomes the student of the "Seven Freaks of Jiangnan" while Yang Kang becomes the foster son of a Jurchen prince inadvertently.
