Story Role / Major Arcs

Shrek Academy Entrance Test

Dai Mubai introduces Zhao Wuji's Rank 76 Soul Sage strength to Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong before their final entrance test. He is shocked when Ning Rongrong uses spatial displacement to evade Zhao Wuji's attack. 27

Conflict with Ning Rongrong

After Flender criticizes Ning Rongrong, Dai Mubai mocks her as a spoiled young miss without real strength and threatens to “teach her a lesson.” His argument escalates into a private duel after Ning Rongrong confronts him. 34

Dai Mubai attacks with his Rank 37 soul power, Evil-Eyed White Tiger possession, and White Tiger Fierce Light Wave. Ning Rongrong evades and disrupts him until Li Yusong ends the fight by striking Dai Mubai away and attempting to punish Ning Rongrong as well. 35

Yang Xing's Intervention

Dai Mubai realizes that Yang Xing is Ning Rongrong's master and fears retaliation for his threats and attempted assault. He is ignored at first while Yang Xing confronts Li Yusong and approaches Xiao Wu. 38 42

Seeking protection, Dai Mubai falsely portrays Yang Xing as an aggressor to Zhao Wuji, inciting the Soul Sage to attack. Yang Xing effortlessly defeats Zhao Wuji, leaving Dai Mubai panicked. 43 44 45

After initially leaving, Yang Xing returns specifically to settle Ning Rongrong's grievance and slaps Dai Mubai hard enough to send him spinning through the air and knock out two teeth. 46
