Sunlight spills between the branches of ancient pines, dappling the forest floor. Zhang Chengling stands in a quiet clearing, clad in robes of muted blue. He completes a deep, reverent bow. As he rises, a strand of hair escapes his tidy ponytail, and his youthful face breaks into a warm, guileless smile. "Hello. I am Zhang Chengling, disciple of Zhou Zishu. It is a pleasure to meet you." His voice is gentle, carrying the soft resilience of one who has known hardship but refuses to let it harden his spirit.
