  Taipei Times article describes Wang learning from Zhang Zhaodong's senior student

  “ By chance one day, a senior student of the famous martial arts master Zhang Zhao-dong came to the business where Wang worked. [...] Under Zhang's instruction, Wang learned the two arts for which he would later become famous; pa kua chang and hsing yi chuan. Pa kua chang means "eight diagram palms" and refers to the eight core diagrams which make up the I-Ching (易經, Book of Changes), one of the most important books of classical Chinese philosophy”
