Background / History

Song Yunzhi is a senior Sea God's Pavilion elder aligned with Shrek Academy's Soul Tool Department. She noticed Huang Fei during the academy entrance assessment, where his healing ability, endurance, self-created skills, and combat performance against Cheng Hai distinguished him from ordinary Blue Silver Grass Soul Masters 13 14.

She summoned Huang Fei for a private discussion after the assessment. Interested in his intended cultivation route, she questioned his plan to pursue the extreme Life System path and recognized that his combat techniques had been developed around it 15.

After hearing Huang Fei's understanding of martial souls and the life-force potential of Blue Silver Grass, Song Yunzhi judged his chosen path worthy of pursuit. She disclosed her identity as a Super Douluo and accepted him as her personal disciple 16.

Her decision caused contention within the Sea God's Pavilion. The Martial Soul Department considered Huang Fei an exceptional combat and healing talent, while Song Yunzhi's position on the Soul Tool Department side raised concerns that his cultivation would be diverted into Soul Tool research 18. She nevertheless respected Huang Fei's own preference for the Martial Soul Department and kept his discipleship confidential to limit unwanted scrutiny 17.

Personality

Song Yunzhi is observant and receptive to unconventional ideas. Though initially concerned that an extreme Life System Blue Silver Grass would lack offensive and control options, she reconsidered after seeing Huang Fei's self-created techniques and listening to his reasoning 15 16.

As a teacher, she is protective without being overbearing. She supports Huang Fei's ambitions but consistently warns him against unstable foundations, excessive exposure, and dangerous soul-ring absorption 35 39 43. She also respects his independent decisions, including his departmental preference and his pursuit of Soul Tool crafting alongside cultivation 17 120.
