Background / History
Ning Rongrong is Ning Fengzhi's daughter and the pampered little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Though she possesses level-nine Innate Soul Power and the sect's inherited support martial soul, her father compares her unfavorably to Ye Yu's achievements, provoking her hostility toward him when they first meet 58.
Seeking to challenge Ye Yu on her behalf, she has her admirer Chen Xuan attack him. Ye Yu defeats Chen Xuan, then publicly disciplines Rongrong for using her status to bully others. Ning Fengzhi allows the lesson, believing her reckless conduct could endanger both herself and the sect 59 60 61.
Rongrong later leaves the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for Shrek Academy. She resists its rules, abandons Flender's assigned punishment to spend the day in Suotuo City, and is eventually confronted for leaving the academy without permission 93 96. Ye Yu's protection and criticism of Shrek's training methods gradually change her opinion of him 97.
After leaving Shrek with Ye Yu and Zhu Zhuqing, Rongrong receives a Demon Willow Fluff External Soul Bone, instruction in the Mysterious Heaven Skill, and the Aromatic Silk Beauty. The herb raises her cultivation to Rank 30 and evolves her Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda—the long-sought breakthrough of the Ning family 116 117.
She joins Heaven Dou Royal Academy, becomes a member of its Soul Master team, and returns to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to reveal her evolution and level 35 cultivation to her family 126 143 144. Much later, she pressures Ning Fengzhi to align the sect with Ye Yu's Temple of Creation, viewing the alliance as essential to her own standing beside Ye Yu 306 307.
Appearance
Ning Rongrong is a petite, noble-looking girl with a refined bearing. At her first meeting with Ye Yu, she appears around ten years old and wears a sapphire-blue wide-sleeved dress 58.
- Long coffee-colored hair, with center-parted bangs tucked behind her ears 58
- Large, bright blue eyes described as sapphire- or sky-blue 58 145
- Delicate, crystal-like ears and exquisitely pretty features 58
- Her Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda resembles a crystal pagoda with nine levels and nine-colored radiance 144
Personality
Rongrong is initially spoiled, proud, and accustomed to relying on the prestige of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She refuses to admit fault even when she recognizes Ye Yu's criticism is valid, and she expects her father, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo to shield her from consequences 60 62 93.
She is outspoken and unafraid to challenge authority. At Shrek Academy, she openly questions Yu Xiaogang's training plan and criticizes the academy's lack of cultivation facilities 103 112. Her attitude begins to mature after Ye Yu protects her and treats her as someone capable of understanding the flaws in Shrek's methods 97.
Once devoted to Ye Yu, Rongrong becomes bold, passionate, and fiercely generous. She offers him access to sect resources, teaches him Heart Separation Control, brings him rare metals, and actively seeks her father's support for Ye Yu and the Temple of Creation 116 125 145 306.
