Background / History

Wu Zhangkong was formerly connected to Shrek Academy before being forced to leave. Despite this, he retains respect for Shrek and hopes talented students such as Chen Zhou can enter it. His connection to the academy later allows Eastsea Academy’s group another opportunity at the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition. 99

Following Eastsea Academy’s class-promotion results, Wu Zhangkong is transferred to Class 1. With many promising students gone, he concentrates his instruction on Chen Zhou, Na'er, and Xie Xie, recognizing their exceptional potential. 79

Personality

Wu Zhangkong is stern, direct, and highly professional. He reacts decisively when students are endangered and initially attempts to discipline Chen Zhou for violently attacking classmates, even when doing so puts him in conflict with the Spirit Pagoda’s Young Tower Master. 61 62

He is also cautious rather than reckless. After learning Chen Zhou’s status and observing the destructive properties of the Water of Destruction, he avoids escalating the school confrontation with large-scale attacks that could endanger others. 62

As Chen Zhou’s strength grows, Wu Zhangkong becomes a patient mentor and protector. He supervises Chen Zhou’s dangerous spirit-ring advancement, provides practical combat instruction, and supports his plans even after recognizing that Chen Zhou intends to use Shrek Academy as a stepping stone. 80 99 105
