The Name-Calling Dismounting Art is Zhang Guifang’s signature combat ability in Investiture of the Gods. By calling an opponent’s name during battle, he disrupts the soul and causes the rider to fall from the saddle.
A Name Used as a Weapon
Zhang Guifang first learns an opponent’s name, then calls for that person to dismount. The command acts directly on the named rider rather than through a visible projectile.
Soul and Body Lose Their Hold
The story connects the effect with the three hun and seven po. When that inner structure is disturbed, the warrior loses control of the body and falls from the mount.
A Battlefield Capture Technique
The art turns a mounted duel into immediate capture. Huang Feihu and Zhou Ji are brought down in this way, making knowledge of a name a tactical danger.
Why Nezha Resists It
Nezha’s lotus-made body does not carry an ordinary mortal soul structure. Zhang Guifang calls his name, but the expected fall does not occur, revealing a clear limit to the art.
