Heroes in martial arts novels are generally admired for their physical prowess and strong sense of righteousness. Through this event, we would like to encourage children and young people to learn about martial arts novels and to share with the public through pictures or prose the chivalry and patriotism of the characters, their personalities or plots in the novels that are worth learning from. Let reading nourish their life and foster positive values. |
