Background / History
Xuan Zi is a senior figure of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion. When Du Busi brought Body Sect experts to Shrek to claim Jiang Ming, Xuan Zi confronted him above the academy. He challenged Du Busi's show of force, fought him, and held his ground until Mu En intervened 316 317.
He continued to protect and train Shrek's students. He intervened when Body Sect members tried to recruit Jiang Ming, later trained Jiang Ming through direct combat, and joined the elders dispatched after a possible ambush on Shrek's returning exchange students 301 366 478. Jiang Ming eventually defeated him in training, prompting Xuan Zi to focus on seclusion 565.
As Sea God Pavilion Master, Xuan Zi sought outside healing experts for the badly injured Jiang Ming, personally visiting the Body Sect for assistance 773 775. During the later attack on Shrek Academy, he fought Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui alongside Mu En and Du Busi 999.
Personality
Xuan Zi keeps an informal manner even during tense confrontations: he drinks wine while facing Du Busi's forces and later visits the Body Sect carrying a wine gourd and eating a chicken leg 316 773. He is proud of Shrek's younger talents, openly celebrating Jiang Ming and Zhang Lexuan's prospects, while taking practical steps to protect and treat them when they are in danger 621 775.
