The Kunlun Sect is a fictional martial arts sect mentioned in several works of "wuxia" fiction.  It is usually featured as a leading orthodox sect in the "wulin" (martial artists' community).  It is named after the place where it is based, the Kunlun Mountains in western China, near modern Qinghai and Xinjiang provinces.  Due to its geographical location, it was hardly known to martial artists in the "jianghu" before its rise to prominence.
The Beggars' Sect is a fictional martial arts sect featured prominently in works of "wuxia" fiction by writers such as Jin Yong, Gu Long and Wolong Sheng.  The sect has also found its way into martial arts films such as "King of Beggars".  The sect's members are mostly beggars as its name suggests, but some of them are from other walks of life.  They are noticeable in public for their dress code and behaviour.  The members adhere to a strict code of conduct and maintain the utmost respect for ranks and hierarchy.  They uphold justice and help those in need through acts of chivalry.  The Beggars' Sect is also one of the supporting pillars in the defence of Han Chinese society from foreign invaders.  The sect has a wide network of communications and the members are reputed for their excellent information gathering skills.  This is due to the sect's large size and the nature of its members, which allows them to blend into different parts of society easily.
The Wudang Sect, sometimes also referred to as the Wu-tang Sect or Wu-Tang Clan, is a fictional martial arts sect mentioned in several works of "wuxia" fiction.  It is commonly featured as one of the leading orthodox sects in the "wulin" (martial artists' community).  It is named after the place it is based, the Wudang Mountains.
The Mount Heaven Sect, also known as the Tianshan Sect, is a fictional martial arts sect mentioned in works of "wuxia" fiction, most notably Liang Yusheng's "Qijian Xia Tianshan".  It also appears in Jin Yong's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" as a minor sect that plays an important role in the story line of one of the three protagonists, Xuzhu.  The sect is named after the place where it is based, the Tian Shan (literally means "Mount Heaven") mountain range in western China.
The Ancient Tomb Sect is a fictional martial arts sect in the wuxia novel "The Return of the Condor Heroes" by Jin Yong.  It plays a significant role in the early development of the protagonists, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü.  It was named after its base, the Ancient Tomb (古墓) in Mount Zhongnan.
The Ming Cult is a fictional cult and martial arts sect featured in the "wuxia" novel "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" by Jin Yong, first published in serial form from 1961 to 1963.  It is also briefly mentioned in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", another novel also by Jin Yong.  It is loosely based on Manichaeism, an actual gnostic religion which originated in Persia and spread to other parts of the world, including China.  The cult is based on Bright Peak in the Kunlun Mountains and has several other bases spread throughout the land.  Its most powerful skills are the 'Heaven and Earth Great Shift' (乾坤大挪移) and the 'Martial Arts of the Holy Flame Tablets' (聖火令武功).
Hong Qi, better known as Hong Qigong, is a fictional character in the wuxia novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and its sequel, "The Return of the Condor Heroes", by Jin Yong.  Best known for his most powerful martial arts (the 'Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms' and the 'Dog Beating Staff Technique'), Hong Qigong is the chief of the Beggars' Sect and the "Northern Beggar" of the Five Greats.  He is nicknamed "Nine Fingered Divine Beggar" after he severs one of his fingers to remind himself to be more time conscious as he has once failed a mission after overindulgence in fine cuisine.  He plays a supporting role in the first novel by imparting his skills to Guo Jing and Huang Rong.  Huang Rong succeeds him as the Beggars' Sect's chief.  Although he appears as a happy-go-lucky old beggar who idles his time away, he actually uses his skills to help those in need and perform chivalrous deeds.

Dongfang Bubai, literally "Invincible East", is a fictional character in the wuxia novel "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" by Jin Yong.  He is the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Cult (), an "unorthodox" martial arts sect.  In his quest to dominate the "wulin" (martial artists' community), he castrated himself to fulfil the prerequisite for learning the skills in a martial arts manual known as the "Sunflower Manual" (), and became a formidable martial artist after mastering those skills.  His castration and supreme prowess in martial arts make him one of the most memorable characters in Jin Yong's wuxia universe even though he appears in only one chapter of the novel.  His name has also become virtually synonymous with homosexuality and LGBT sexual orientations in Chinese popular culture.
