Background / History

Dai Mubai is a prince of the Star Luo Empire and Zhu Zhuqing's former fiancé. Faced with the Star Luo succession struggle, he abandoned their engagement and fled to Shrek Academy, while Zhu Zhuqing later escaped to pursue the same path. She considers his departure cowardice and sees no future in relying on him. 50

At Shrek, Dai Mubai initially carries himself as the academy's strongest student. His first meeting with Ye Liuyun, Tang San, and Xiao Wu at the Rose Hotel becomes hostile after he crudely propositions Xiao Wu and attempts to slap her. 13 He is shocked when Ye Liuyun's soul power overwhelms his own, though he later rationalizes the setback by dismissing Blue Silver Grass as a useless Martial Spirit. 14

Zhao Wuji later brokers a truce between Dai Mubai and Ye Liuyun after the Shrek entrance assessment. Dai accepts outwardly, having recognized that Ye Liuyun's strength and Blue Silver Grass are far more dangerous than he first assumed. 19

Appearance

Dai Mubai is a muscular young man whose White Tiger possession greatly enlarges his frame and gives him distinct beastlike traits. 28 44

• Golden hair that shifts to predominantly white with black strands upon possession. 28
• Double-pupiled eyes that turn deep blue in White Tiger form. 28
• A four-stroke “King” marking appears on his forehead. 28 44
• Enlarged, fur-covered hands with retractable dagger-like tiger claws. 28
• Golden fur and a larger, more heavily muscled body during White Tiger Vajra Transformation. 45

Personality

Dai Mubai is proud, confrontational, and deeply invested in proving the superiority of his White Tiger Martial Spirit. He initially treats Blue Silver Grass with contempt and assumes that a top-tier beast Martial Spirit guarantees victory over plant-type users. 14

His defeats by Ye Liuyun repeatedly aggravate his insecurity. He seeks rematches, interprets Ye Liuyun's restraint as weakness, and is easily provoked into rash challenges or attacks. 45 51 53 147 During the Huangdou Team match, his anger at being taunted causes him to abandon Shrek's formation and charge Yu Tianheng alone. 60

Dai's feelings toward Zhu Zhuqing are possessive rather than respectful. He publicly calls her his fiancée, tries to dictate whom she may associate with, and seeks forgiveness for his past abandonment and visits to brothels. Zhu Zhuqing rejects his claim over her and demands that redemption require genuine effort. 51 52

Story Role / Major Arcs

Rose Hotel Conflict

Dai arrives at the Rose Hotel with two women and provokes Ye Liuyun's group over the remaining rooms. His insult toward Xiao Wu triggers a soul-power confrontation with Ye Liuyun, leaving Dai injured and privately shaken despite his arrogant departure. 13 14

Shrek Academy Rivalry

After becoming Ye Liuyun's classmate, Dai remains resentful of his earlier humiliation. Grandmaster orders a spar to establish Dai's authority, but Dai's White Tiger skills are countered by Ye Liuyun's vines; he is knocked unconscious with a single punch. 43 45

Conflict with Zhu Zhuqing

Dai challenges Ye Liuyun to a weighted race and uses the outcome to demand that he stay away from Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing rejects Dai's possessiveness, exposes his abandonment and infidelity, and ultimately refuses both their engagement and the expected Martial Soul Fusion Skill. 51 52 57

When Zhu Zhuqing leaves Shrek Academy, Dai lashes out at Yu Xiaogang and clashes with Tang San over the instructor's honor. 65

Huangdou Team Match

During the match against the Huangdou Team, Dai breaks Shrek's formation in anger and charges Yu Tianheng alone. Yu Tianheng defeats him easily, exposing the gap between their Martial Spirits and disrupting his team's strategy. 60

Star Luo Succession Struggle

Years later, Dai Mubai is one of the principal contenders in the Star Luo struggle for the throne, alongside Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuqing. He is backed by the Clear Sky Sect. 142 143

Return to Zhu Zhuqing

Dai visits the Zhu residence while Zhu Zhuqing is cultivating under Ye Liuyun's protection. Jealousy drives him to attack Ye Liuyun with his rank-61 Spirit Emperor power, only for Ye Liuyun to swat him down with one slap. After Ye Liuyun reveals three hundred-thousand-year Spirit Rings, Dai suppresses his anger and retreats. 147 150

Trivia

• His first major defeat by Ye Liuyun leaves him unconscious for the day—the exact consequence Dai had proposed for Ye Liuyun before their spar. 44 45
