Background / History
Dai Mubai was born into the Star Luo Imperial Family as its Third Prince. His elder brother, Davis, was six years older and repeatedly beat him while growing up; despite Dai Mubai possessing slightly better talent, the age and power gap left him fearful of Davis. The abuse contributed to his volatile behavior and habit of venting anger on weaker people, damaging his reputation in Star Luo City and driving potential supporters to Davis. Unable to endure the pressure, Dai Mubai fled the empire. 38 175
The Star Luo royal family later decreed that the final Throne Seizing Battle would be settled through the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Dai Mubai and his fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing, were required to form a team; the winning side would gain the right to inherit the throne, while the losers faced a severe fate. 13 20
He enrolled at Shrek Academy after escaping Star Luo City. By the time Zhu Zhuqing arrived in Soto City to find him, he had developed a reputation for dalliances and was discovered flirting with twin sisters, worsening their already hostile relationship. 13 14 20
Appearance
Dai Mubai was originally considered handsome, but several lasting facial scars from the Three Scoundrels Mercenary Group's assault later made his appearance more intimidating. 53 69
- Possesses distinctive Evil Eyes, which become especially threatening when angered. 37
- His Evil Eye White Tiger Soul Spirit Avatar gives him a ferocious, burly tiger-like form. 23
- Retained several hideous facial scars more than a year after his beating. 69
Personality
Dai Mubai is insecure, prideful, and easily provoked. His childhood under Davis's dominance left him sensitive to humiliation; when frustrated or powerless, he often redirected his anger toward weaker targets, including Ning Rongrong. 38 39 186
He is repeatedly portrayed as lustful and irresponsible, particularly in his treatment of Zhu Zhuqing. Although he tried to distance himself from Ma Hongjun's behavior and claimed to have “better taste,” Zhu Zhuqing regarded the distinction as meaningless and left in disgust. 13 37
Fear can motivate him to improve. Zhu Zhuqing's unexpectedly lethal fighting style convinced him that he needed to cultivate seriously, largely so that he would not be killed by her in the future. Against Davis, he fought desperately despite knowing he was outmatched. 28 178 However, after Shrek's victory over the Star Luo Royal Academy, his obsession with becoming Crown Prince overtook his restraint and led directly to his death. 185 186
Abilities & Skills
Evil Eye White Tiger Soul Spirit
Dai Mubai possesses the Evil Eye White Tiger, a top-tier Beast Soul Spirit suited to direct combat. His Soul Spirit Avatar greatly enhances his physical presence and combat strength. 23 153
- As a Beast Soul Spirit Soul Master, he has considerable physical durability; Zhu Zhuqing's initial beating did not seriously injure him despite her attack landing cleanly. 15
- His Soul Spirit and Soul Skills were comparable in type to Davis's, but Davis's higher Soul Power allowed him to wield them much more effectively. 178
- He had four Soul Rings after reaching level 41, though the fourth was acquired quickly rather than carefully selected. 134
White Tiger Barrier
A defensive enhancement that manifests as a layer of white light around Dai Mubai and raises his physical qualities. 70
- Used to withstand Ning Rongrong's oppressive Soul Power after she stacked her support buffs. 70
- Can be combined with further self-enhancement, though it did not prevent Ning Rongrong from overpowering him. 70 71
White Tiger Light Wave
Dai Mubai's only documented ranged attack: a milky-white sphere of light fired from his mouth. 70
- Used against Ning Rongrong primarily to delay her and avoid another direct hit. 70
- Davis also used a stronger version to blast Dai Mubai away during their tournament battle. 178
White Tiger Vajra Transformation
His Third Soul Skill, which further strengthens his attributes. 70
- Activated during his duel with Ning Rongrong after realizing her self-buffs gave her overwhelming physical power. 70
- Failed to close the gap against Ning Rongrong's enhanced strength. 70 71
Relationships
- Zhu Zhuqing — His fiancée and designated partner in the Throne Seizing Battle. Their relationship was marked by Dai Mubai's infidelity, hostility, and attempts to control her; she ultimately killed him after he threatened both her and the Zhu Family. 14 20 185 186
- Davis — Elder brother and rival for the Star Luo throne. Davis's childhood abuse shaped Dai Mubai's insecurity, and he later defeated Dai Mubai during the tournament's succession match. 175 177 178
- Tang San — Shrek classmate who saved Dai Mubai from ten-thousand-year Black King Snake venom with Realgar Wine. Dai Mubai became friendlier toward Tang San afterward and later sought Tang San's help against Davis. 24 25 175
- Ning Rongrong — Classmate whom Dai Mubai targeted while venting his anger. She later defeated and severely injured him in a duel after he underestimated her as a support Soul Master. 39 70 71
- Ma Hongjun — Fellow Shrek student and companion during the mercenary ambush. Dai Mubai carried the injured Ma Hongjun while fleeing, but also tried to distance himself from Ma Hongjun's conduct. 37 51
- Oscar — Shrek teammate who treated Dai Mubai's injuries with Big Sausages after his duel with Ning Rongrong. 71
- Zhao Wuji — Shrek instructor who reprimanded Dai Mubai for being unable to defeat Zhu Zhuqing despite their ten-level Soul Power gap. 25
Story Role / Major Arcs
Conflict with Zhu Zhuqing
Zhu Zhuqing found Dai Mubai with twin sisters in Soto City and attacked him after he attempted to explain himself. Although he was physically tougher and held a ten-level Soul Power advantage, her sudden assault sent him flying. 14 15
At Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai lost control after Zhu Zhuqing called him disgusting and attacked her in his Soul Spirit Avatar. Li Ang briefly controlled Zhu Zhuqing's body, struck Dai Mubai with a dagger poisoned by ten-thousand-year Black King Snake venom, and left him near death. Tang San saved him with ordinary Realgar Wine. 23 24 25
Shrek Academy Tensions
Dai Mubai repeatedly clashed with Zhu Zhuqing over his attitude toward women, then misdirected his anger toward Ning Rongrong. Zhu Zhuqing intervened after he blasted Ning Rongrong away with Soul Power, while Tang San mediated the confrontation. 37 39
More than a year later, Ning Rongrong challenged him to a duel. Dai Mubai entered as a level 39 Battle Soul Elder but was decisively overwhelmed by Ning Rongrong's self-buffed combat power; he suffered a fractured arm, broken ribs, and internal injuries before Zhu Zhuqing stopped Ning Rongrong from finishing him. 70 71
Mercenary Ambush
During the Black Beast Mercenary Group and Three Scoundrels Mercenary Group attack, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were trapped inside a Soul Power Suppression Field. While fleeing, Dai Mubai carried Ma Hongjun but was knocked back into the field by Ye Zhiqiu's tortoise shell. 49 51
Ye Zhiqiu severely injured Dai Mubai and forced him out of Soul Spirit Avatar. Bu Le then struck him, and E Kao beat him half to death after Dai Mubai invoked the Star Luo Imperial Family's name. The mercenaries spared Dai Mubai due to his imperial status, leaving him badly wounded and facially scarred. 52 53 58 69
Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament
Dai Mubai reached level 40 during the preliminary competition but entered his match against Thunder Academy without a fourth Soul Ring, resulting in a one-sided defeat by Yu Tianxin. 130
After gaining a fourth Soul Ring and reaching level 41, he was not selected as Shrek Academy's team leader; Tang San was appointed instead because Dai Mubai lacked the strength and support necessary to lead the team. 134
He lost to Huo Wushuang in the Advancement Tournament's match against Blazing Academy. Huo Wushuang held a two-level Soul Power advantage, though Dai Mubai left him seriously injured. 153
Star Luo Succession Match and Death
The Finals match against the Star Luo Royal Academy functioned as the decisive contest for the Star Luo throne. Dai Mubai, intimidated by Davis, asked Tang San for help before the match. 174 175
Davis, a level 49 Soul Master, defeated Dai Mubai in direct combat. Dai Mubai endured largely through desperation and Tang San's occasional intervention while the rest of Shrek Academy secured victory over the opposing team. 177 178 179
After Shrek Academy withdrew from the tournament, Dai Mubai believed that victory over Davis entitled him to return immediately as Crown Prince. When Zhu Zhuqing refused to accompany him, he threatened to destroy her and the Zhu Family if she left. Zhu Zhuqing accepted his challenge and killed him instantly with her First Soul Skill, Netherworld Thrust, before he could even summon his Soul Spirit. 185 186
His death triggered a Spirit Hall investigation and destabilized the Star Luo succession. Dai E'ren became Crown Prince, while Davis was placed under house arrest. 186 187
