"The Legend of Swordsman" is generally believed to have been written by Wang Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty. It compiles thirty-three swordsman novels from the Tang and Song Dynasties and is an essential selection of ancient classical Chinese martial arts novels. Later, Ren Weichang (Ren Xiong) drew the Thirty-Three Swordsmen based on this book. This book is available in four-volume and one-volume editions, and is included in the series "Ancient and Modern Yishi", "Twenty-One Secretaries", "The Preliminary Collection of Collections", the re-edited "Shuo Yong", "Novel of the Five Dynasties", and "Collection of Tang Dynasties". This book is a relatively refined selection of ancient swordsman novels and has a profound influence on later literary creations.

The first 70 chapters of this book are basically consistent with the Guanhuatang version of "Water Margin" reviewed by Jin Shengtan; and the last 50 chapters are completely different from the currently popular 120-chapter version of "Water Margin". The Liangshan heroes here were not recruited. Until Chapter 120, they were still fighting bloody battles with the government troops. The next 50 chapters were separately typed and printed by Shanghai Zhongxi Book Company in 1933. The preface by Mr. Mei Jihe recorded the details of the publication at that time. The last 50 chapters of "Ancient Water Margin" have twists and turns in the plot and distinctive characters. Some scholars believe that it is the same author as the first 70 chapters. By comparing and analyzing the last 50 chapters with the first 70 chapters, we found that the plot structures before and after are coherent and consistent, and the layout echoes back and forth, forming a tight unity; without the former, the latter cannot be established; without the latter, many plot arrangements in the first 70 chapters are difficult to understand accurately. The characteristics of the characters before and after are consistent. The main characters in the last 50 chapters can be judged by their words and deeds. None of the other sequels that can be seen now can reach this level. The world view reflected before and after is consistent; the artistic style is consistent; especially the language characteristics of the times and local characteristics are also consistent.
