Background / History
Dai Yuhao was born to Huo Yun'er, a maid of Duke White Tiger's Estate, as the illegitimate son of Duke White Tiger, Dai Hao. In the original timeline described in the diary, he was named Huo Yuhao, suffered severe hardship in the estate, and his mother was abused to death before the duke returned. 3
His reincarnation altered those circumstances. He returned with the memories and residual power of a God King, awakening both the Spirit Eyes and Ice Jade Empress Scorpion Martial Souls with Innate Full Soul Power. Dai Hao returned to the estate, confirmed their blood relationship, acknowledged him as his son, elevated Huo Yun'er to concubine status, and gave him the name Dai Yuhao. 6 8 131
Dai Yuhao believes Tang San arranged the intervention that kept Huo Yun'er alive. In gratitude, he vowed to protect Tang San's daughter, Tang Wutong, and accepted Tang San as both his prospective father-in-law and master. 8 121
He joined the declining Tang Sect with Tang Ya and Bei Bei before entering Shrek Academy. His recollections quickly proved unreliable as the timeline diverged: he awakened two Martial Souls too early, failed to encounter Electrolux, and watched Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao leave Shrek instead of remaining in his class. 2 9 12
Personality
Dai Yuhao is intensely devoted to Tang San, whom he repeatedly addresses as “Father-in-law” and “Master.” Even as Tang San gives him orders, withholds information, and treats him as a useful resource, Dai Yuhao continues to trust his wisdom and power. 66 115 118
He is protective of people to whom he feels indebted. He remains grateful to Tang Ya for giving him a path into Shrek Academy and worries about her fall to the Holy Spirit Cult, though he is unable to prevent it. He is likewise motivated by preserving Huo Yun'er's safety and happiness. 8 122 129
His reliance on memories from his previous life makes him slow to adapt to the altered world. He expected to find Electrolux, Ice Empress, and Snow Empress according to the former timeline, but each missed opportunity deepens his belief that his fortune as the Child of Destiny has been disrupted. 29 121 129 142
When cornered, Dai Yuhao can be quick-thinking and deceptive. Under questioning by Mu En and Xuan Zi, he fabricated a detailed engagement story to conceal the actual nature of his connection to Tang San. 115 116
Abilities & Skills
Twin Martial Souls
Dai Yuhao's current incarnation possesses two Martial Souls that appeared at his awakening.
- Spirit Eyes — an eye-type Martial Soul he also possessed in the original timeline. 6 8
- Ice Jade Empress Scorpion — a second Martial Soul associated with the Ice Empress; Dai Yuhao believes it carried over from his former life as a result of his rebirth as a God King. 6 8 24
- The absence of a White Tiger Martial Soul makes this combination abnormal for Dai Hao's biological son. 8
Residual Divine Power
His soul returned from the future with a limited remnant of God King-level Divine Power.
- He initially considered using it to take revenge on the Duke's Estate. 8
- The reserve was only a trace and could not be replenished after use. 8 12
- Once it was exhausted, he could no longer rely on his former divine power. 12
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm resides within Dai Yuhao and acts as his Soul Ring partner.
- Sky Dream helped create the foundation for Dai Yuhao's Ice-related second Martial Soul in the original course of events. 6 24
- It became Dai Yuhao's Wisdom Soul Ring after sacrificing itself to him. 119
- Sky Dream increasingly doubts Dai Yuhao's judgment and considers leaving him once an opportunity arises. 72 118 119
Necromancer Sacred Law God Martial Soul
Dai Yuhao previously possessed the Necromancer Sacred Law God Martial Soul through Electrolux.
- In the former timeline, Electrolux's guidance gave him access to undead magic and Necromancy. 9
- Electrolux has not entered Dai Yuhao's mind in the altered timeline. 9 12
- Without that Martial Soul and its support, Dai Yuhao states that he cannot use Necromancy on the Douluo Continent. 12
Soul Ring Simulation
- Dai Yuhao can use a simulated Soul Ring to alter the apparent age of a Soul Ring. 139
- He used this ability in the Soul Master Tournament to display a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring. 139
Relationships
- Huo Yun'er — His mother. Her survival in this timeline is central to his gratitude toward Tang San; Dai Yuhao later asks Tang San to marry her if he completes a mission. 8 129
- Dai Hao / Duke White Tiger — His biological father. Dai Hao acknowledged him after his Twin Martial Soul awakening and made him a young master of the estate. 6 8
- Tang San / Tang Wei — His father-in-law and master figure. Dai Yuhao displays near-unconditional loyalty, while Tang San regards him as a potentially useful Child of Destiny. 54 66 118 128
- Tang Wutong / Wang Dong'er — Tang San's daughter and Dai Yuhao's intended wife from his previous life. He vows to protect her and claims their engagement when concealing his ties to Tang San. 8 54 116
- Sky Dream Ice Silkworm / Tian Meng — His Wisdom Soul Ring and former partner. Tian Meng initially expects Dai Yuhao to lead them to godhood but becomes increasingly disillusioned. 72 119
- Tang Ya — The Tang Sect leader who helped him join the sect and reach Shrek Academy. Dai Yuhao remains grateful and wants to save her from becoming an Evil Soul Master. 2 122
- Bei Bei — Tang Ya's companion and Dai Yuhao's fellow Tang Sect member; traveled with Dai Yuhao to Shrek Academy. 8
- Zhou Yi — His Shrek teacher. Dai Yuhao initially defended her, then learned that her outdated training methods had left hidden injuries in his body. 29 30
- Ice Empress — A Soul Beast he expected to obtain as a Soul Spirit. In the current timeline, she disappears from the Far North and instead aligns with Morax against him. 24 28 29
- Snow Empress — Another former Soul Spirit opportunity. Her absence removes Dai Yuhao's planned path to obtain the hundred-thousand-year embryo and Soul Spirit. 29 142
- Morax — A hostile force whose diary exposes Dai Yuhao's past and whose allies expect him to cheat during the tournament. 57 144
- Xu Jiujiu — A Star Luo royal with prior connections to Dai Yuhao; she expresses concern over his situation and subtly warns him about Tang San. 142
Story Role / Major Arcs
Search for the Far North Soul Beasts
Dai Yuhao travels with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to locate Ice Empress, expecting events to follow his former timeline. When Ice Empress does not appear, he concludes that she may have left because Snow Empress vanished and plans to wait for the auction where Snow Empress was formerly obtained as a Soul Spirit. 28 29
Shrek Academy and Tang San's Influence
At Shrek, Dai Yuhao struggles with the revelation that Zhou Yi's methods caused hidden injuries and relied on obsolete theory. Tang San uses the situation to strengthen Dai Yuhao's dependence on him while presenting himself as the source of correct guidance. 29 30 31
Tang San's Secret
Dai Yuhao notices Tang San behaving suspiciously and confronts him. Mu En and Xuan Zi subsequently capture Dai Yuhao, pressure him for information, and reveal Tang San's injury in hopes of using Dai Yuhao to mediate between Shrek and the Clear Sky Sect. 115 117 119
Loss of Fortune
Tang San orders Dai Yuhao to find a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast willing to sacrifice itself. Dai Yuhao cannot fulfill the order and concludes that the fortune of the Douluo Continent may no longer protect him as the Child of Destiny. 128 129
Soul Master Tournament
Dai Yuhao enters the Soul Master Tournament as part of Shrek's lineup. He uses his simulated Soul Ring during the competition, while Morax's faction anticipates that he may attempt to cheat against the Sun Moon Empire. 139 144
Reported Death
After the tournament events, Bei Bei informs Tang San that Dai Yuhao has reportedly died. The Duke White Tiger's Estate publicly attributes his death to a serious illness. 149
Notable Quotes
“Father-in-law, I truly can't thank you enough. If it weren't for you, my mother probably wouldn't have survived either.” 8
“Brother Sky Dream, believe in my father-in-law! His wisdom and might will definitely change the current situation!” 118
Trivia
- Dai Yuhao's current Twin Martial Souls are considered so unusual that Tang Ya questions whether he could truly be Duke White Tiger's son. 8
- He considers himself a once-in-a-millennium genius of the Star Luo Empire. 142
- His old name, Huo Yuhao, remains tied to the original timeline in which he was not acknowledged by Dai Hao. 3 6
