Power Progression

Background and History

Dai Mubai was born into the Star Luo imperial family with the White Tiger Martial Soul. He wanted to challenge his elder brother, Crown Prince Dai Weisi, for the throne, but became terrified after watching Dai Weisi kill their second brother in a duel. He planned to flee, leaving behind his fiancée and Martial Soul Fusion partner, Zhu Zhuqing 56.

Before his departure, Mitsuki engineered a humiliating incident involving Dai Mubai and his noble followers. The resulting scandal spread through Star Luo City, earned him the nickname “Nantong Prince,” and caused noblewomen to sever their connections with him. Dai Mubai blamed Dai Weisi and decided to use the journey to Spirit City’s Genius Tournament as an opportunity to escape with more than a million Gold Soul Coins 58.

In Spirit City, he attacked Tianyue after she recognized and embarrassed him, only for Bai Ranmo to defeat him effortlessly. Tianyue later challenged him and Yu Tianheng together in the Genius Tournament, shattered his defenses, and beat him until he begged for mercy 62 63 71 72 73.

He joined Shrek Academy after leaving Star Luo. His relationship with Zhu Zhuqing remained strained by his abandonment of her, his pursuit of other partners, and their shared obligation to face Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun. Their Hell White Tiger fusion weakened as their emotional distance grew 148 194 213.

His initial connection to Shrek developed after Ma Hongjun attacked him out of jealousy over a brothel companion. Dai Mubai retaliated, but later apologized when Ma Hongjun returned with Tang San and Hei Ranbai. Learning that those talented Soul Masters would eventually attend Shrek, Dai Mubai accepted Ma Hongjun’s invitation, hoping to recruit allies for his succession struggle 96 97 98.

At the Rose Hotel in Suotuo City, Dai Mubai fought Xiao Wu over a room. After she initially defeated him through surprise, he attacked again in anger and seriously wounded her. Tang San intervened, and the confrontation led to their imprisonment. Dai Mubai received a six-month sentence and suffered sexual abuse from Scarface’s gang before Toji arranged the Shrek group’s release 136 137 138 139 144.

Dai Mubai later assaulted Xue Beng at Heaven Dou Royal Academy without realizing that he was an imperial prince. Emperor Xue Ye ordered his arrest, sparing his life after learning his identity but sending him to Spirit Hall for judgment. Toji reduced his original five-year sentence to five months, during which he was again confined with Scarface. After his release, he displayed attraction to Oscar and Tang San and increasing indifference toward Zhu Zhuqing 174 175 184 185.

During the Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Dai Mubai fought Dai Weisi with Shrek’s team. His brother outmatched him individually, but Shrek won after executing a Seven-in-One Fusion Skill centered on Hei Ranbai. Later, the discovery that Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing had consumed Soul-Breaking Grass ended their realistic prospects of competing for the throne through cultivation. Dai Weisi spared him, judging him no longer a threat 242 243 244 252.

Back in Star Luo, Dai Mubai initially gave up the succession struggle. His ambition returned when the Golden Roc Duke offered to help assassinate Dai Weisi. The attempt failed: Orochimaru stopped the attackers, and the duke fled. Dai Mubai was imprisoned with Oscar and Ma Hongjun and faced an announced execution, but Yu Xiaogang later freed the three. Dai Mubai immediately asked for help taking revenge on Dai Weisi 281 282 283 285 288.

The coup, known as the White Tiger Gate Incident, involved a planned ambush by eight hundred men after the Golden Roc Duke claimed to have bought off the gate guards. Orochimaru’s snake had secretly recorded the conspiracy. Following the defeat, Zhu Zhuqing took her own life on her first night in the Heavenly Prison, while Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were sentenced to execution by a thousand cuts in one month. Before their rescue, they were subjected to further abuse by Orochimaru’s goblin mutants 283 284 285 286 287.

After joining Yu Xiaogang, Dai Mubai and Oscar served as targets for a test of his Eighth Soul Skill. The attack made them vomit from its smell but did not injure them. Yu Xiaogang subsequently announced that he would travel overseas to target Furina, the Sea God’s heir, for his Rakshasa trial 311.

Neuvillette later took Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Flender to Fontaine for judgment. Although Furina demanded their execution, they received fifty-year prison sentences and were sent to Fontaine’s Heavenly Prison to pick cotton. Old John whipped Dai Mubai when he slowed his work in resentment 321.

The four eventually escaped by digging through the prison wall with concealed metal spoons. Dai Mubai lost a game of rock-paper-scissors and endured Sea Horse and Sea Spear Douluo’s abusive “lessons” while the others prepared the final excavation. During a thunderstorm, he and Flender broke through the wall; Oscar and Ma Hongjun followed, and the four stole an inflatable raft from Old John’s management office and fled to sea 339.

Dai Mubai subsequently returned to the Star Luo palace with drastically darkened skin and revealed that he had received the Rakshasa God’s inheritance. His parents initially failed to recognize him. By displaying the purple scythe-shaped divine mark on his forehead, he convinced Dai Tianfeng of his claim and obtained support for investigating Yu Xiaogang, whom he said he needed to follow to become a god. The revelation also revived Dai Weisi’s fear that Dai Mubai might seek revenge 347.

Alongside Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Flender, Dai Mubai later confronted Tang San and Xiao Wu outside Jogo’s domain. He urged Flender not to kill Tang San immediately, saying that Yu Xiaogang needed to kill him personally, while also threatening Tang San with sexual abuse. Hei Ranbai arrived with Mahoraga and defeated the four using Chimera Shadow Garden 354.

Dai Mubai’s allegiance to Yu Xiaogang was ultimately a deception. After Yu Xiaogang’s eighteen Soul Rings turned into ten-year rings, Dai Mubai concealed his amusement with flattery and persuaded him to regard the change as proof of his greatness. Once Yu Xiaogang withdrew to recover, Dai Mubai privately revealed his own Rakshasa candidacy to Oscar and Ma Hongjun. He asked them to help kill Yu Xiaogang during the ninth trial and promised to take them to the Divine Realm, deliberately excluding Flender because he might interfere 367.

When Yu Xiaogang was absorbed in his attempted ascension, Dai Mubai ate Oscar’s Flying Mushroom Sausage and flew behind him. Pretending that he wanted a “heart-to-heart” conversation, he exploited Yu Xiaogang’s vulnerable state and pierced his chest with a tiger claw 398.

Appearance

Dai Mubai is blond and has been called the “Blue-Eyed Prince.” His White Tiger Martial Soul makes him appear more heavily built when it possesses him 62 71.

• He has mismatched eyes, a feature that later helps his mother recognize him despite his changed appearance 62 347.
• By age eighteen, worry and heavy drinking had visibly worn down his youthful appearance 281.
• His Hell White Tiger fusion with Zhu Zhuqing takes the form of a large white tiger with black stripes and violet eyes 213.
• Following his escape from Fontaine, his skin is described as pitch-black. His parents initially fail to recognize him, and Tang San later likewise fails to identify him and his companions until they summon their Martial Souls 347 354.
• His Rakshasa divine mark appears as a purple scythe on his forehead 347.
• By his later confrontation with Tang San, he has become a eunuch; the passage does not establish the precise circumstances of this injury 354.

Personality

Dai Mubai’s desire for the throne is repeatedly checked by his fear of Dai Weisi. He can be boastful when he sees a path to power, but retreats or begs for mercy when badly outmatched. He also stands by friends in danger, including Ma Hongjun 56 71 73 156 252 283.

He is possessive and dismissive toward Zhu Zhuqing, at times treating her as subordinate to his ambitions. After his imprisonment, his attraction to Oscar and Tang San further strains his relationships with Zhu Zhuqing and other Shrek members 148 184 185 194.

His pride can turn into violent retaliation when he feels humiliated. He threatens sexual violence against Tianyue, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong, and attacks Xiao Wu again after she has already won their initial exchange. His later treatment of Oscar likewise violates the trust of a close companion 62 136 149 194.

Despite his frequent bluster, Dai Mubai can conceal his intentions through calculated submission. In Star Luo, he publicly praises Dai Weisi’s right to the throne because he knows his attendants are spies. Later, he flatters Yu Xiaogang to hide his contempt and divine ambitions, then organizes a betrayal timed for his teacher’s ninth trial 281 367 398.

Abilities and Skills

White Tiger Martial Soul

Dai Mubai’s inherited Beast Martial Soul supports close combat and offensive Soul Skills 56 71.

• White Tiger Protective Barrier: His First Soul Skill provides protection 63 72.
• White Tiger Fierce Light Wave: His Second Soul Skill fires a blast of energy 62 63.
• White Tiger Vajra Transformation: His Third Soul Skill strengthens him and can enhance Fierce Light Wave 148 242.
• White Tiger Meteor Shower: His Fourth Soul Skill spreads attacks over a wide area. Its individual hits are weak, though it can combine with Yu Tianheng’s Blue Lightning Meteor Shower 189 213 217 243.
• White Tiger Demon God Transformation: His Fifth Soul Skill is a strengthening technique. He activates it together with White Tiger Vajra Transformation when attacking Tang San 354.
• Tiger claws: White Tiger possession produces sharp claws for close combat. He later uses a claw to pierce Yu Xiaogang’s chest in a surprise attack 62 398.

His Soul Skill selection departs from the Dai family’s established progression. Yu Xiaogang persuades him to choose White Tiger Meteor Shower instead of obtaining White Tiger Spirit Annihilation from a Sky-Raging Tiger, forfeiting a mental-injury technique suited to close combat. Dai Weisi also criticizes White Tiger Vajra Transformation because its strengthening role clashes with the family’s preferred Fifth Soul Skill, White Tiger Demon God Transformation 189 242.

Hell White Tiger

• Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing merge their White Tiger and Netherworld abilities into a giant tiger 148 213.
• Limit: Their deteriorating relationship slows and weakens the fusion; Feng Xiaotian defeats it quickly, and Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun’s version proves stronger 213 243.
• Later tournament strength: Before the Star Luo match, their weakened fusion is assessed as capable of defeating a high-level Soul Ancestor at most, rather than a Soul King 241.

Team Fusion

• Seven-in-One Fusion Skill: Dai Mubai participates in Shrek’s coordinated transfer of Soul Power to Hei Ranbai. The formation channels power through Oscar, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, and Tang San to support Hei Ranbai’s transformation 243.

Rakshasa Inheritance

• Divine candidacy: Dai Mubai possesses a strand of Rakshasa divine sense within his Sea of Consciousness and can manifest its scythe-shaped mark. The mark produces fluctuations powerful enough to pressure Dai Tianfeng, by then a Titled Douluo 347.
• Rival inheritance bid: He identifies himself as another recipient of the Rakshasa legacy and plans to eliminate Yu Xiaogang during the ninth trial. His possession of the inheritance is not confirmation of completed ascension or restored cultivation potential 347 367 398.

Relationships

• Dai Weisi — Elder brother, Crown Prince, and rival for the Star Luo throne. He defeats Dai Mubai’s coup attempt and orders his imprisonment. Dai Mubai’s later revelation of a divine inheritance causes Dai Weisi to fear renewed competition and revenge 56 242 285 347.
• Zhu Zhuqing — Fiancée and Hell White Tiger partner. His abandonment and conduct repeatedly damage their trust; she dies by suicide in prison after their failed coup 56 194 213 285.
• Dai Tianfeng — Father and Star Luo emperor. He once had high hopes for Dai Mubai’s talent but condemns him after the coup attempt. He later supports investigating Yu Xiaogang after Dai Mubai proves that he possesses a divine inheritance 56 285 347.
• Zhu Tiancai — Mother and Star Luo empress. Initially fails to recognize him after his appearance changes, but accepts his identity after seeing his mismatched eyes and receiving Dai Weisi’s confirmation 347.
• Oscar and Ma Hongjun — Shrek companions. Dai Mubai asks Dai Weisi to spare them alongside him; the three are later imprisoned and rescued together. Despite an earlier rift caused by his abuse of Oscar, they remain associated, escape Fontaine with Flender, and are approached to help him betray Yu Xiaogang. Oscar later supplies the Flying Mushroom Sausage used in the ambush 194 252 285 288 339 367 398.
• Tang San and Xiao Wu — Shrek associates turned enemies. Dai Mubai’s attack on Xiao Wu provokes Tang San’s lasting hostility. Dai Mubai later develops attraction to Tang San, but eventually joins the attempt to capture him for Yu Xiaogang and threatens him with abuse 136 137 167 185 354.
• Flender — Shrek headmaster and later fellow prisoner and escapee. They continue fighting together after leaving Fontaine, but Dai Mubai excludes him from the anti-Yu Xiaogang conspiracy because he expects Flender to interfere 144 321 339 354 367.
• Tianyue — Spirit Hall fighter who defeats and humiliates him in the Genius Tournament. She later captures him for imprisonment in Suotuo City 71 73 138.
• Bai Ranmo — Spirit Hall’s Saint Son. He easily defeats Dai Mubai in Spirit City and later orders his arrest after a public brawl in Suotuo City 63 137.
• Hei Ranbai — Shrek teammate whose talent initially makes the academy attractive to Dai Mubai. He rescues Oscar from Dai Mubai, anchors Shrek’s Seven-in-One Fusion Skill, and later defeats Dai Mubai’s group when protecting Tang San and Xiao Wu 97 98 194 243 354.
• Yu Xiaogang (“Gangzi”) — Shrek instructor whose advice leads Dai Mubai to choose White Tiger Meteor Shower; he later rescues Dai Mubai from prison. Dai Mubai outwardly follows him while secretly competing for the Rakshasa inheritance, ultimately piercing his chest during his attempted ascension 189 288 347 367 398.
• Scarface — Prison tormentor encountered in both Suotuo City and Heaven Dou. Dai Mubai initially fears him intensely, but the narration later describes him as developing an attachment during his second imprisonment 138 175 184.
• Golden Roc Duke — Supporter and organizer of the failed White Tiger Gate coup. His flattery revives Dai Mubai’s imperial ambitions, but he abandons him when Orochimaru defeats the attackers 282 283 285.
• Orochimaru and Mitsuki — Allies of Dai Weisi whom Dai Mubai resents and fears. Mitsuki engineers his early scandal; Orochimaru exposes and suppresses his coup, then supplies the goblin mutants used to torment him in prison 58 192 284 285 286 346.
• Neuvillette and Furina — Fontaine authorities involved in his later punishment. Furina requests execution, while Neuvillette imposes a fifty-year prison sentence 321.
