Dai Mubai reached out and gently pinched Zhu Zhuqing's nose, then chuckled:
"Alright, stop making fun of them."
As he spoke, he also seemed somewhat expectant.
If I win this contest, I wonder what reward Heaven will give me?
Could you please expedite his plan to "unify the continent"?
Under the spotlight.
The image on the celestial screen finally began to change.
[Comparison begins!]
[Phase One: Childhood Experiences!]
The screen is split in two.
The left side is a dark world, and the right side is a white world.
The first thing to light up is the black world screen on the left.
[In the Dark World, Dai Mubai is Born!]
In the picture.
The imperial palace of the Star Luo Empire was brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.
A baby was born amidst great anticipation.
Those distinctive, sinister eyes instantly shook the entire royal family.
"Born with double pupils!"
"This is an auspicious sign!"
"This child is destined for greatness!"
The old emperor, holding the baby, smiled broadly and bestowed countless treasures upon the infant.
Immediately afterwards.
The images flow.
It shows Dai Mubai's life in his childhood.
That was truly a life of luxury and ease.
He was fed by a maid, carried by a eunuch, and if he wanted any toy, even the stars in the sky, someone would find a way to pluck them down for him.
He was surrounded by countless sycophants.
"His Highness the Third Prince is truly an exceptional person!"
"His Highness the Third Prince will surely ascend the throne in the future!"
In the scene, young Dai Mubai is dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, with a priceless soul tool hanging around his neck. He exudes arrogance as he directs a group of palace maids and eunuchs to play.
Seeing this scene.
The commoners and low-level Soul Masters in the underworld all had bloodshot eyes.
I'm so envious!
"Is this what life is like for a prince?"
"Born in Rome, you're really lucky with your reincarnation."
"Sigh, it's so frustrating to compare yourself to others. When I was a kid, I was still playing in the mud, while others were already living like royalty in the palace."
"Although Mu Bai comes from a noble family, this is also a source of pressure for him."
Yu Xiaogang spoke up at this moment, trying to save face, saying, "Royal struggles are cruel, and these material enjoyments cannot cover up the mental pressure."
However.
Only Dai Mubai, the person directly involved, felt a cold sweat trickle down his forehead as he looked at the scene on the sky.
His eyes darted around, making him seem quite guilty.
Others only saw his glamorous side.
Only he himself knows.
This is just the surface.
Although he had a comfortable material life when he was a child, he actually lived in constant fear.
That older brother, Davis, was like a mountain pressing down on him.
Although he appears to be having fun in the video, he is actually escaping.
He was afraid of being targeted by his older brother, so he deliberately acted like a playboy and a pleasure-seeker.
This isn't enjoyable at all.
That's clearly cowardice!
Even so, upon hearing the praise from those around him, Dai Mubai straightened his back and pretended to have a happy childhood.
The images on the celestial screen continued to rotate.
Soon it came time for Dai Mubai to turn five.
In the picture.
Five-year-old Dai Mubai is playing hide-and-seek in the Imperial Garden with a group of guards.
He was sweating profusely from running, but his face was beaming with a carefree smile.
He even skipped his class that day because he was so playful.
When the teacher came to find him, he scolded him away, relying on his status as a prince.
See here.
Although the people in the underworld thought the child was a bit naughty, most of them were understanding.
"At five years old, it's the perfect time to be playful."
"Princes are human too; it's good that they have a bit of childlike innocence."
"Yes, this also shows that Dai Mubai was very innocent and guileless when he was young."
Everyone is praising it.
After all, Dai Mubai is now a Title Douluo and a high-ranking member of the Allied Forces.
Who dares to speak ill of him?
Looking at the five-year-old child running around the Imperial Garden in the sky, looking smug because he had skipped his training class.
The dark world.
The atmosphere on the open ground of the Tiandou camp was quite relaxed.
Many soldiers looked at the chubby boy in his fine clothes and sumptuous meals with a hint of resentment towards the rich, but most of them thought it was normal.
After all, he was a prince.
Born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
"It's nothing."
Oscar, holding a large sausage, took a bite and mumbled indistinctly:
"A five-year-old child is just at the age where they play in the mud, isn't he?"
"Although Dai Laoda was a bit naughty back then, it also shows that he still had a childlike innocence."
Ma Hongjun nodded repeatedly, his small eyes narrowing into slits:
"That's right, that's right."
"If I were born in a palace, I would play every day too."
"Cultivation is such a tough job, let whoever wants to do it do it."
Standing in the center of the crowd, Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, his stiff master demeanor now appearing remarkably tolerant.
He looked at the sky, his tone calm:
"At the beginning of life, people are inherently good, but also inherently playful."
"A five-year-old child is not yet mentally mature, and it is his nature to crave pleasure."
"This precisely proves Mu Bai's authenticity."
"Only by experiencing such a carefree childhood can one develop greater resilience when facing setbacks in the future."
Yu Xiaogang's theory was very logical and well-reasoned.
The Shrek students around them nodded in agreement, thinking that the master was indeed a master, with such a unique and profound perspective on issues.
Only Tang San.
He stood there, his Purple Demon Eyes not activated, but deep within them lay envy.
Five years old?
What was he doing when he was five years old?
He was cooking porridge on a small stool and stove in the dilapidated blacksmith shop in Holy Soul Village.
She also had to take care of her father, who was drunk all day and only knew how to sleep.
Forget about fine clothes and delicacies, even a bowl of rice porridge is a luxury.
Let's take another look at Dai Mubai in the picture.
The fabric of that outfit alone would probably be enough to cover the expenses of Holy Soul Village for a year.
"That's just fate."
Tang San sighed inwardly, but didn't show it on his face, simply nodding in agreement.
"The teacher is right."
"Although Dai Laoda comes from the royal family, he is not arrogant because of it, which is very rare."
Hearing everyone's defense.
Dai Mubai, who was initially a little worried, was completely relieved.
He reached up and wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, and his wicked eyes regained their confident gleam.
"Alas, the past is too painful to recall."
Dai Mubai shook his head, feigning seriousness, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile:
"I was too young then, I didn't understand anything."
"All you do is play around all day, I'm sorry to make you a laughing stock."
"But it's good, because of that experience, I cherish my strength even more now."
This wave is in the atmosphere.
It acknowledges both past mischief and present efforts.
The people in the underworld held him in even higher regard.
However.
The scene shifts to a white world.
Inside the imperial palace of the Star Luo Empire, the atmosphere was completely different from that of the Black World.
