He concedes and ultimately pays Zhang Tianyu 80,000 Gold Soul Coins. 15

At Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai helps guide Zhang Tianyu, Xiao Wu, and Tang San through enrollment. He later recognizes the newcomers' high soul power and helps Zhang Tianyu's group bypass the second and third entrance trials. 16 18

He is close friends with Ma Hongjun and is initially known for womanizing. His habit of seeing multiple women is exposed in front of Zhu Zhuqing, worsening her contempt for him.

Dai Mubai repeatedly seeks Zhang Tianyu's advice on reconciling with Zhu Zhuqing. He becomes jealous of Zhang Tianyu's growing closeness with her, but also relies on Zhang Tianyu's guidance and support. 35 38 56 63
