Background

Dai Mubai was the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire and Zhu Zhuqing's arranged fiancé. While Zhu Zhuqing remained in the Star Luo Empire under threat from her sister and assassins, Dai Mubai had fled to Soto City, where he neglected cultivation and became notorious for lavish spending, nightlife, and frequently changing female companions. At the time, his Soul Power was level 37. 19

Zhu Zhuqing investigated him after hearing Lin Ye's thoughts and discovered his conduct firsthand. He was caught in a hotel room with two women, publicly humiliated, and taken away by Spirit Hall's enforcement squad. The resulting case gave him a criminal record and a three-year prison sentence. 20 21 43

Star Luo's royal family later intervened to secure his release, but the scandal had already reached the empire and put his status as prince in jeopardy. The release also exposed corruption among the Star Luo intelligence network, as an inflated request for funds to bail him out brought the affair to the Star Luo Emperor's attention. 61

After returning to Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai showed immediate interest in the academy's new female students, particularly Zhu Zhuqing, whose Martial Soul resonated with his own. Before formal training could begin, eight former lovers confronted him over pregnancies and alleged coercion into abortions. He had reportedly deceived them by claiming that he could not abandon a terminally ill fiancée, then used this claim to pressure them into terminating their pregnancies. 63 64

During the confrontation, Dai Mubai lost control and attacked a pregnant woman, causing her miscarriage. Zhao Wuji intervened, while Flender chose to surrender Dai Mubai to Spirit Hall rather than the Soto City Defense Army. His Soul Power was suppressed with specialized shackles before he was taken into custody. 64 65

Spirit Hall sentenced him to twenty years in prison. In response to the disgrace brought upon the royal family, the Star Luo Emperor abolished Dai Mubai's title as Third Prince, demoted him to commoner status, and ordered the decision proclaimed across the empire and continent. His engagement to Zhu Zhuqing was annulled. 70 71

Appearance

Dai Mubai is identified by his blonde hair, a trait prominent enough for the Spirit Hall enforcement captain to associate him with local rumors. 21

• Blonde-haired.
• Possesses the White Tiger Martial Soul. 106

Personality

Dai Mubai is portrayed as arrogant, conceited, and irresponsible. He relied on his status as the Third Prince when threatened with arrest, attempting to deter Shrek's staff from handing him over. 65

His conduct in Soto City earned him a reputation as a habitual womanizer. He repeatedly neglected cultivation for a carefree lifestyle, cycled through partners, and treated his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing as an obligation he could abandon. 19 49

Following the confrontation at Shrek, his refusal to accept responsibility escalated into violence. Shrek's teachers concluded that they had failed to see his vicious nature despite having trained him for years. 64 65
