Background

Mu En was a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family and Shrek Academy's Level 99 Dragon God Douluo. As Sea God Pavilion Master, he spent his later years preoccupied with Shrek's decline, the rise of Evil Soul Masters, and the lack of a reliable successor. He considered Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er unable to reach the Limit Douluo realm, while he regarded Xuan Zi as too negligent to entrust with the academy's future. 2

The awakening of Yu Daoyun's pure Golden Dragon Martial Soul and Innate Full Soul Power gave Mu En the successor he had sought. He personally accepted Yu Daoyun as his disciple, reprimanded Yan Shaozhe for attempting to recruit him before enrollment, and arranged for the six-year-old to enter Shrek's Inner Court. 2

Mu En cultivated Yu Daoyun as both a direct heir and Shrek's future protector. He supplied rare medicinal resources, personally guided the refinement of the Black Tortoise Divine Pill, arranged soul-hunting expeditions, and used the Life Ancient Tree and the Light Holy Dragon's Dragon Core to accelerate his disciple's growth. 3 5 14

Appearance

Mu En was depicted as a hunched, aged man with an aged face. Despite his frailty and worsening health, he could project the overwhelming pressure of a Limit Douluo. 4 78

• Often rested beneath trees or basked in the sun around Shrek Academy. 2 28 32
• His Light Holy Dragon martial soul manifested as a dragon phantom behind him. 4
• Near the end of his life, his health deteriorated severely following his battle against Evil Soul Masters. 78

Personality

Mu En was deeply responsible for Shrek Academy and saw its students as its future. His greatest concern was ensuring that the academy would endure after his death, which motivated his exceptional investment in Yu Daoyun and his repeated demands that Shrek's elders protect the younger generation. 2 9 31

Though stern toward his subordinates, he was caring and patient with Yu Daoyun. He personally supervised dangerous cultivation, arranged extensive protection for missions, and worried that his disciple might be harmed by the Dragon Core. 3 9 15

He was also capable of self-reflection. After Yu Daoyun challenged Shrek's traditions, Mu En accepted the need for reform; he apologized to Zhang Lexuan for imposing obligations on her and released her from her promise to protect Shrek and become a child bride. 15 16 He later rejected the idea that students should bear Shrek's “ten-thousand-year glory,” allowing them to fight for their own ambitions instead. 48
