Facilities
The pavilion is an ancient wooden hall built among the roots of the Golden Ancient Tree at the center of Shrek's Sea God Island. Its central chamber contains a long table with seats for the Pavilion Master and academy elders. 5 156
- Golden Ancient Tree — its faint fragrance fills the meeting chamber; it later emits golden light powerful enough to shroud Shrek Academy from satellite observation. 5 161
- Council chamber — a long-table hall used for decisions affecting Shrek Academy, its allies, and its political influence. 5 11
- Archives and furnishings — the pavilion retains old tables, chairs, calligraphy, paintings, books, and scrolls; all are found dust-covered after the academy's abandonment. 156
Governance
The Sea God Pavilion serves as the seat of Shrek Academy's highest-ranking elders. Its Pavilion Master presides from the head of the long table and directs the council's decisions. 5 7
- Yun Ming — Pavilion Master during Shrek's conflict with Chen Yu; a peak quasi-god known as the Sky-Propping Douluo. 7 40
- Zhuo Shi — senior elder who rallies the council during several crises and is proposed as temporary Pavilion Master while Yun Ming is incapacitated. 17 110 111
- Long Yeyue — Shrek's Supreme Elder, whose confidence in the academy's alliances initially strengthens the council's resolve. 7
- Cai Yue'er — her argument with Yun Ming is cited as evidence of the growing distrust within the pavilion's leadership. 66
Major Meetings and Decisions
| Chapter | Matter and outcome |
|---|---|
| 5 | The elders debate Chen Yu's demand that Shrek repay thirty years of expenditures on Ya Li—an amount equal to two centuries of academy savings. Yun Ming proposes that the elders contribute personally, prompting silence and reluctance. 5 |
| 7 | After the Federation cuts Shrek's resource support, Yun Ming orders the academy to use all of its connections against Chen Yu. 7 |
| 13 | Yun Ming restores the elders' confidence by invoking Shrek's legacy, alliances, and a possible alliance with Chen Xinjie. 13 |
| 21–22 | With the Seven Great Legions moving against Shrek City and Tianhai City, the pavilion convenes in panic; the elders blame one another for failing to secure influence within the legions. 21 22 |
| 39–40 | The elders turn on Yun Ming and Ya Li over Shrek's financial collapse. Yun Ming silences the chamber by releasing the pressure of a peak quasi-god. 39 40 |
| 49–50 | The council recognizes Chen Xinjie's death and the purge of the War God Temple as the loss of Shrek's deepest influence within the Federation. 49 50 |
| 71–75 | Following Chen Yu's forced apology and repayment agreement, Yun Ming orders the elders to return resources they had embezzled from the academy. 71 72 75 |
| 100–103 | The elders regain confidence after the Clear Sky Sect becomes involved, discussing Chen Yu's anticipated defeat and the redistribution of future resources. 100 103 |
| 110–111 | Zhuo Shi is temporarily appointed Pavilion Master and attempts to claim credit for the destruction of the Holy Spirit Cult; his plan fails when he is ambushed in Ming Capital. 110 111 |
| 129–132 | After the Soul Beast race submits to humanity, the elders acknowledge the loss of Shrek's final major public function. They later plan to reopen the Demon Gate and manufacture a crisis to restore the academy's prestige. 129 130 132 |
| 139–141 | Shrek's elders are exposed as responsible for breaking the Demon Gate's seal, captured by the Federation, and scheduled for a nationwide public trial. 139 141 |
History
For twenty thousand years, the Sea God Pavilion hosted Shrek Academy's most consequential decisions. Its elders regarded themselves as the guardians of Shrek's prestige, backed by accumulated resources, allied sects, and a concentration of the continent's highest-level soul masters. 11 13 84
The pavilion's decline began when Chen Yu targeted Shrek's financial dependence and political network. The Federation withdrew resource support, while the elders proved unwilling to personally cover Shrek's debts despite their status and wealth. 5 7
As Chen Yu destroyed or neutralized Shrek-aligned forces—including the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon Family, Tang Sect, War God Temple, Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Skysea Alliance—the pavilion increasingly became a place of fear, recrimination, and paralysis. 49 83 99
Its leadership maintained an outward appearance of unity even after trust between Yun Ming and the elders had fractured. The pavilion's members continued meeting and issuing decisions, but their shared confidence had largely collapsed. 66
After Shrek's role in the Demon Gate incident was exposed, its elders were captured and faced public judgment. Shrek Academy was later sealed for violating federal law. 139 141 164
Decline and Abandonment
When the Sea God Island elders arrive at Shrek Academy, the institution is deserted: its gates are unguarded, classrooms stand empty, and statues of the Shrek Seven Devils and Huo Yuhao are covered in dust and moss. 155
The Sea God Pavilion itself is found dark, stale, and dust-covered. Its furnishings and archives remain in place, but the chamber no longer contains an active council; only an aged and crippled Yun Ming remains inside. 156 157
Later, the Golden Ancient Tree releases intense golden light across Sea God Island and Shrek Academy. The Federal Satellite Bureau identifies the energy as god-level and cannot observe the academy through the resulting radiance. 161
Relationships
- Shrek Academy — the pavilion is the academy's elder council chamber and highest governing venue. 5 11
- Golden Ancient Tree — the pavilion is embedded within its roots; the tree's later radiance covers the academy. 5 156 161
- Yun Ming — Pavilion Master who presides over the council through most of its decline. 7 40
- Shrek Academy Elders — the pavilion's principal occupants and decision-makers; their unity deteriorates under external pressure. 5 66
- Sea God Island Elders — they visit the abandoned pavilion while investigating the collapse of the Sea God's faith and discover Yun Ming inside. 153 156
- Sun Moon Federation — the Federation surrounds, pressures, and ultimately seals Shrek Academy after stripping away its political influence and exposing its crimes. 51 141 164
