Background
Dai Mubai was the second prince of the Star Luo Empire and the bearer of its Evil Eye White Tiger martial soul. From childhood, he was politically engaged to Zhu Zhuqing of the Zhu Clan, whose Netherworld Spirit Cat was meant to complement his martial soul. Their families were bound to Star Luo’s succession system, which forced rival heirs and their partners into life-or-death competition. 78 128
Before Zhu Zhuqing arrived at Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai had abandoned his responsibilities and lived indulgently in Suotuo City. Zhu Zhuqing later described him as violent, unfaithful, and emotionally abusive, while still having come to Shrek in the hope of helping him change his fate. 78
Appearance
In his early Shrek years, Dai Mubai is a tall young man with unruly yellow hair. Activating his Evil Eye White Tiger greatly enlarges his body, covers him in fur, and gives him a wild, muscular appearance. 68
- His martial soul transformation can make him nearly two meters tall. 68
- During the Elephant Armor Academy match, the loss of two fingers on his right hand is publicly exposed when his glove tears. 202
- After his fall, he is depicted as a one-legged beggar with disheveled yellow hair and a wooden stick. 324
- By his return to Shrek Academy, he is blind, mute, missing an arm, and unable to move independently. 441 443
Personality
Dai Mubai is proud, hot-blooded, and highly sensitive to provocation. He immediately reacts with anger when Mad Rhino insults Zhu Zhuqing, and he repeatedly insists on confronting opponents stronger than himself. 28 68
He also presents himself as a protective leader. During the attack on Shrek Academy, he charges toward Tang San despite recognizing that the enemy is far beyond his level, invoking his duties as Shrek’s captain and Tang San’s brother. 61
His attachment to Zhu Zhuqing becomes increasingly unhealthy. Even after she openly rejects, strikes, and wounds him, he interprets her cruelty as proof that she still cares for him. 173 176 Following his mutilation and abandonment, he remains fixated on her while simultaneously fearing her. 324 443
