Dai Mubai

Biodata

Background / History

Dai Mubai is a prince and crown prince of the Star Luo Empire who fled to Suotuo City in the Heaven Dou Empire to escape the ruthless succession struggle imposed by his elder brother, Dai Weisi 3 4 17 30. He eventually enrolls as a student at Shrek Academy 4 5.

Upon encountering the powerful transmigrator Li Xiaoyao at the Rose Hotel, Dai Mubai's initial arrogance is quickly checked by Li Xiaoyao's overwhelming strength, leading him to back down and admit defeat rather than risk a hopeless fight 1 2 3 4. Recognizing Li Xiaoyao's immense potential and formidable backing, Dai Mubai attempts to befriend him, offering hospitality and gifts in hopes of securing external support for his future bid to claim the Star Luo throne against his brother 4 5.

Dai Mubai is betrothed to Zhu Zhuqing, the daughter of the Nether Duke of Star Luo, though his past philandering and frequent visits to establishments like the Rose Hotel cause deep resentment and friction between them 8 17 24. Later, through Li Xiaoyao's psychological manipulation and unorthodox guidance, Dai Mubai is convinced to rethink his desperate race for the throne, choosing instead to bide his time, endure, and focus on long-term cultivation 30 31.
