Master Baihu (Hànzì: 白虎, Pinyin: Báihǔ, On'yomi: Byakko) is a mysterious street fighter and master of Tiger Swallow Style in the Yellow Head Building. His style is the same used by Lan Di and Sunming Zhao. It is unclear whether he is a member or associate of the Chi You Men or the Yellow Heads or if he is an unaffiliated fighter, though he does seem to have authority over the black-suited guards in the Yellow Head building.
