Chapter 171 Davis' Vision
Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu.
Dai Mubai hated these three guys who beat him up last night.
Especially Zhou Qing!
That bastard also hooked up with his fiancée, which is even more abominable!
Originally, Dai Mubai was not interested in Zhong Dingxiu's discussion at all. After all, he came out with the members of the Xingluo Royal Team this time just to confirm the specific escape route.
However, Dai Mubai did not think that he would definitely escape, he was just... planning a few escape routes for himself in advance.
But now!
Zhong Dingxiu was analyzing Team 18, and even admired the three guys who beat him, and Davis seemed to have the inclination to subdue those three...
【This is absolutely not possible! 】
Although Dai Mubai thought that the royal competition was unfair: he was young and would never be able to beat Davis, who was six years older than him.
but.
As for the throne, the eight-year-old Dai Mubai actually still had some ideas.
After all, there are three princes in the Xingluo Empire. The second prince and the children of the Zhu family do not have innate martial spirit reactions and are automatically excluded.
Dai Mubai is the third prince, so if he really doesn't want to fight, it's actually very simple.
Give up cultivation - the kind that completely gives up.
The brutal competition among Xingluo is to hope to find a "Netherworld White Tiger" who can lead the Xingluo Empire to seize the entire Douluo World through the method of "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers".
But if one of the two selected parties is a "sick cat", the competition will not be very meaningful.
Dai Mubai's current behavior shows that he has ambitions for the next Xingluo throne, but he also feels that this way of competition is extremely unfair.
There is only one situation facing Dai Mubai:
He just felt that he couldn't win the fight!
But being unable to compete doesn't mean he is willing to give up or let his elder brother recruit more talents, as that would make his chances even slimmer.
"Your Highness, Third Prince, don't underestimate the people of the world." Zhong Dingxiu preached, "In addition to your personal strength, you must also improve in other aspects."
"I know. No need to say it every time. It's so annoying." Dai Mubai looked impatient.
"Mubai!"
Davis said in a calm voice, "Apologize to the elders!"
Dai Mubai shuddered suddenly, bent his back and apologized to Zhong Dingxiu.
"It's okay. The Third Prince is young and a little naughty. It's his nature." Zhong Dingxiu had a blank expression on his face. He then talked about Team 18, "Romantina is not bad either. She has a spiritual spirit, which is very rare. If we can subdue her together, she may play an unexpected role in the future."
"I'm afraid she can't." Davis shook his head.
Before a soul master clearly joins a certain force, he is a free man. Only those who are capable and desire wealth, beauty, power and status are eligible to choose one of the three forces of Tiandou, Xingluo and Wuhun Hall.
Once you truly choose to join one of these three forces, you must not betray it again, otherwise you will be cursed and despised by all the soul masters in the continent.
Romanak is a noble of Tiandou. Although his title is small, he still has the status of a noble, and it has been inherited from generation to generation. He is also the deputy lord of Notting City and has an official status.
Similarly, as Romanak's only daughter, Romantina will definitely inherit this level of status in the future.
If she chooses to join Xingluo, it would be a betrayal to Tiandou!
Unless Romanak made a big mistake, or her father did something wrong and was stripped of his title and official position...
Ok?
Davis suddenly remembered that they came to this small Nottingham City just to hear the news about the soul bones and learned about Darles's plan from Falling Star City. So they wasted a little time and came here to add fuel to the fire as the next step?
But he didn't expect that this small city of Nottingham would have such an excellent soul master, so much so that he almost forgot the purpose of coming here.
"It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has figured it out." Zhong Dingxiu's relief was beyond words. "Among Team 18, except for Mo Hen and Wang Sheng, who are just making up the numbers, and Miss Zhu Zhuqing who is from the Civet Cat family, the other four can all be recruited."
"If they are too proud and unwilling to join Xing Luo right away, then with the friendship between them and Miss Zhu Zhuqing, it won't be too late to extend an olive branch to them in the future when they realize how difficult it is to be a civilian spirit master."
Davis knew all this, but he still thanked me and said, "It's all thanks to Elder Zhong's good teaching."
Dai Mubai saw all of this and felt that Zhong Dingxiu and Davis were extremely hypocritical. Then, when he saw Zhu Zhuyun using his sister as a bargaining chip to win over others, he didn't feel anything. His heart turned cold again: She is worthy of being Davis's fiancée, and she is as utilitarian as him!
"Let's go watch the game together in the afternoon." Seeing Dai Mubai's uncertain expression, Davis gave the order.
"But the wound on my face hasn't healed yet, and it will damage the royal dignity." Dai Mubai didn't want to meet Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu from Team 18. He might be ridiculed and laughed at by those guys in person, and he didn't want to show his pig-headed appearance after being beaten in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
"A real man should shed blood but not tears. It's just a minor injury, but you don't dare to go out and see people? Are you a delicate princess?" Davis scolded, "Hiding it is the most shameful thing!"
"Yes···"
Dai Mubai's body trembled, his eyes full of anger, but he still agreed.
When he lost in a sparring match with Davis, he would be unwilling to accept the defeat, but he did not dare to say anything in front of Davis. However, he was only eight years old after all, and was not as mature as the fifteen-year-old Dai Mubai in the original book. He was still at the stage where his inner emotions were expressed on his face.
"Okay, let's go have lunch." Following Davis' order, Dai Mubai immediately ran out, fearing that he would be stopped by Davis again.
"This kid really makes me worry."
When only Davis and Zhu Zhuyun were left in the room, Davis sighed, "Want to fight, but not want to fight at the same time. This attitude is the most troublesome."
If Dai Mubai really gave up and stopped practicing, it would be fine. His father would not really kill him, and he would not need to compete with this kid in the future. The boy's engagement with Zhu Zhuqing could also be cancelled, and he could continue to be a playboy.
But he continued to practice, which gave his father an illusion:
Dai Mubai wants to fight!
[Maybe it's not an illusion, but this guy really wants to become the emperor of Xingluo... But he has such a complex personality... a mixture of bravery and cowardice. ]
"I'm afraid my sister Zhuqing will be dragged down by your brother." Zhu Zhuyun frowned.
"Elder Zhong brought us here to play a casual chess game. Didn't it give you and me a chance to let Zhu Zhuqing survive?" Davis comforted him. "With Dai Mubai's mentality, there is no way he can compete with me in the future. If he really runs away one day, it will be great. I can persuade father more... Even if father still has expectations for him, he will choose to give in for the future interests of the entire Xing Luo."
Zhu Zhuyun's brows relaxed slightly: "You forgot one premise, that is, Zhou Qing can really grow up and show his talents throughout the continent."
"With his talent, even if he doesn't accept Elder Zhong's invitation, he will definitely be admitted to the Tiandou Empire's advanced academy in the future, and will definitely participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition."
Davis was extremely confident, "Maybe we'll run into him again then."
"However, this is also an idle move. The specific method will depend on what kind of attitude Zhu Zhuqing has towards Zhou Qing, as well as future developments: whether Dai Mubai will really escape.
If he is willing to stay in Xingluo City, then he is the first choice, and we can only be the bad guy and force him and Zhu Zhuqing to be of the same mind. "
Zhu Zhuyun also knew this, and said, "If Zhou Qing is gone - even if Dai Mubai really runs away, I, as the elder sister, will have to be the bad guy, force Zhu Zhuqing away, go find Dai Mubai, and guide her to find Dai Mubai... Now it's just a slightly more option. But as you said, it still depends on Zhu Zhuqing's specific attitude towards Zhou Qing..."
In the original novel, after Dai Mubai ran away, he did not tell Zhu Zhuqing where he went, but his whereabouts should have always been known to the emperor of the Xingluo Empire.
It is highly likely that Zhu Zhuqing was able to find Shrek Academy not by coincidence, but because she found Soto City where Dai Mubai was under the deliberate guidance of Zhu Zhuyun's men.
The original text did not say that if Dai Mubai did not practice, he would not need to compete with Davis, but I think there is no big problem with this setting. After all, the competition for the throne of Xingluo must decide a tiger that can swallow up thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, rather than letting a powerful tiger bite a sick cat to death. This is completely meaningless.
Royal competition is cruel, but it cannot be a massacre, let alone an open massacre.
Therefore, I think that if Dai Mubai completely gave up and gave up practicing, he would not have to worry about his life being in danger, and he could be a leisurely prince. After all, his identity as the Prince of Xingluo was there, and openly, no one dared to ridicule him except his brother and his parents.
But Dai Mubai in the original novel wanted to fight for it, and for this reason he wanted all the Shrek people to join his camp...
