"Pfft..."

A snort of derision broke the silence of the great hall.

The one who laughed was none other than someone else.

It was an old official standing at the head of the civil servants.

Watching the Dai Mubai of the Black World on the screen, who dared to talk back to his teacher after being scolded for skipping class, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"Is this the Majesty of another world?"

"Still playing hide-and-seek at five years old?"

"He is utterly good-for-nothing!"

The military generals around him all wore expressions of disdain.

The Star Luo Empire valued martial prowess.

The competition within the imperial family was incomparably cruel.

In their world, if a five-year-old child was still playing in the mud, it was essentially a declaration that they were out of the running.

"Fortunately."

A burly Title Douluo said in a muffled, gravelly voice:

"Fortunately, the Majesty of our world is the White Emperor of Heaven."

"Otherwise, if we had such a king, our Star Luo Empire would have perished long ago."

High upon the dais.

Zhu Zhuqing's cold gaze fell upon the screen, a deep sense of disgust flashing in the depths of her eyes.

She turned her head to look at the man beside her, whose expression was indifferent, her tone instantly becoming incomparably gentle, even carrying a hint of fawning:

"Mubai."

"The you in that world is truly so disappointing."

"He is simply a piece of trash."

"I heard from the elders in the palace that when you were five, you had already beaten your spirit master instructor until his face was black and blue."

Hearing this.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened, her pink rabbit ears standing straight up.

"What?"

"Brother Mubai was that impressive at five?"

Ning Rongrong was also full of surprise, the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda she had been toying with coming to a halt:

"Is that for real?"

"Beating a spirit master at five? That was before he had even awakened his martial soul!"

Although they knew their man was ridiculously strong.

Such a feat at five years old still exceeded their understanding.

Dai Mubai sat upon the imperial throne, feeling the several gazes of admiration around him, and his mood was excellent.

He reached out to pull Zhu Zhuqing closer, gently stroking her smooth, delicate shoulder.

"Those are just old stories from the past."

Dai Mubai's voice was calm:

"The Dai Mubai of that world was born into royalty but did not understand the cruelty of the imperial family."

"He thought that by avoiding things, he could live a peaceful life."

"Little did he know, only power is eternal."

These words made the eyes of the women shimmer with affection.

Qian Renxue could hold back no longer.

She strode forward with her long legs wrapped in white silk, squeezing directly into Dai Mubai's embrace, her voluptuous body pressing tightly against his chest.

"His Majesty speaks so well."

"How could that piece of trash compare to His Majesty?"

"When His Majesty was five, you must have already been thinking about how to conquer the world, and how to... conquer us, right?"

Qian Renxue's voice carried a natural allure, her eyes lingering and soft as silk.

"Sister Xue'er is so shameless!"

Seeing this, Xiao Wu immediately refused to be outdone, diving into Dai Mubai's arms from the other side and hugging his arm to act spoiled:

"Brother Mubai, I want a hug too!"

"That Dai Mubai from the Black World looks disgusting; I still prefer the current Brother Mubai!"

For a moment.

High above, the White Emperor of Heaven was surrounded by a bevy of stunning beauties, his arms filled with soft jade and fragrant warmth.

That delicate touch, that intoxicating scent.

As for the performance of the "self" on the sky screen.

Dai Mubai couldn't be bothered to evaluate it at all.

How could a swallow understand the ambitions of a swan?

That Dai Mubai was nothing more than a pig raised in a pen.

Just then.

The images on the sky screen shifted once again.

This time, it was no longer a scene of lighthearted play.

[Black World: The Arrogance of Power!]

In the image.

It was still the five-year-old Dai Mubai.

Seemingly in a foul mood, he was throwing a tantrum in his bedchamber, smashing the room full of precious porcelain to pieces.

A delicate-looking maid, simply because her hand trembled while serving tea, spilled a few drops onto the surface of Dai Mubai's shoes.

Originally, this was just a trivial matter.

But in the image, the young Dai Mubai's evil eyes suddenly erupted with malice.

"You bastard!"

"Are you blind?!"

Only five years old, he pointed at the maid, who was much taller than him, and cursed her roundly.

Afterward.

He actually reached out his foot and stepped on the maid's shoulder, his face twisted with a cruelty and arrogance completely inconsistent with his age:

"Lick it clean for this prince!"

"If you don't lick it clean, I'll break your legs today!"

The image froze on the maid, terrified and humiliated, yet forced to kneel down, her lips trembling as she leaned toward the boot stained with tea.

Boom!

As this scene appeared.

The Black World, which had been relatively relaxed, instantly fell silent.

In the Heaven Dou Camp.

The soldiers and commoners who had just been praising the "innocence" of the child now had their smiles frozen on their faces.

This...

This is innocence?

This is clearly bullying others by abusing one's power!

That maid is a human being too!

Just because of a few drops of tea, she has to lick his shoes in public?

A chill rose from the soles of everyone's feet, rushing straight to their scalps.

However.

This silence only lasted for a moment.

Soon, voices broke the awkwardness.

"Ahem..."

A noble of the Heaven Dou Empire coughed twice, forcing a justification:

"Actually... this is normal."

"Imperial power is supreme, after all."

"Dai Mubai is a prince with a noble status; the maid dirtying the prince's shoes is, in itself, a grave disrespect."

"Making her lick it clean is already an act of imperial grace—at least he didn't have her beheaded, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Immediately, many people chimed in.

"Yes, yes, that is the Star Luo Imperial Family; their rules are strict."

"He's just a child, it's normal for him to have a bit of a temper."

"This just goes to show that Dai Mubai has had the aura of a ruler since he was a child!"

Upon hearing these words.

Dai Mubai, whose expression had been somewhat unsightly, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

His heart had skipped a beat when he saw that scene just now.

After all, a matter like this really didn't sound good if it got out.

But he hadn't expected these people to be so "sensible," taking the initiative to find excuses for him.

It seems that having strength really is the ultimate truth.

Dai Mubai felt secretly smug.

If he were just an ordinary spirit master right now, he would have likely been condemned by everyone.

But he was a Titled Douluo!

He was a high-ranking member of the Allied Forces!

Who would dare to criticize him?

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly at this moment, his expression unchanging:

"To wear the crown, one must bear its weight."

"Although Mubai acted a bit excessively, this was a helpless move under the feudal imperial power."

"Everyone, do not use the eyes of an ordinary person to harshly judge a prince."

Tang San stood to the side.

He looked at the arrogant little Dai Mubai in the projection, then looked at the confident Dai Mubai beside him.

Although he felt something was amiss in his heart.

After all, he was a disciple of the Tang Sect in his past life, and while there were also rules in the pugilistic world, such dehumanizing acts were rare.

But now, they were all in the same boat.

"Teacher is right."

Tang San spoke, his voice clear and resonant:

"A five-year-old child has yet to form a sense of right and wrong."

"This only shows that the educational environment at the time was problematic; it cannot be blamed on Mubai himself."

"What's more, these are all things of the past."
