Background
Ning Rongrong is Ning Fengzhi’s daughter and the designated future Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She was raised under the protection of Chen Xin and Gu Rong, whom she calls Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa. Before beginning her divine trials, she regarded soul-ring hunting as something naturally handled by her family’s elders and had little reason to develop combat ability herself. 33
During her second soul-ring hunt in the Star Dou Great Forest, she encountered and adopted Xiong Da, a young Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. Despite Chen Xin’s warning that the bear was an exceptionally dangerous soul beast, Rongrong insisted on bringing it home; its protective behavior ultimately won over Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong. 34
Sleeping beside Xiong Da, she received the inheritance of the Battle God and began the Ninety-Nine Trials. The first test required her to run nearly sixty kilometers around the sect in a single day. Lu Xian’s taunts provoked her competitive streak, and she completed the task despite exhaustion. She then continued through increasingly punishing trials involving weighted running, breaking century-old trees barehanded, shattering Rock-Crushing Turtle shells, and defeating her own father in an assessment. 34 40
Her divine inheritance ultimately removed the innate ceiling of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. After surviving her fiftieth assessment against Xiong Da, Rongrong received the Aromatic Silk Beauty, entered seclusion, and evolved her Martial Soul into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. This evolution established her as the sect’s greatest hope of surpassing the former Soul Sage limitation of its hereditary Martial Soul. 177 178
As her cultivation rose into the Soul Douluo realm, Rongrong became one of the central combat pillars of the sect alongside Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. The three later fought the sect’s three giants as a team, and Rongrong continued completing Battle God trials by defeating opponents who had once been her teachers and protectors. 248 250 255 257
Personality
Rongrong is fiercely competitive and reacts badly to being underestimated. Doubt from Chen Xin, Gu Rong, or the Battle God repeatedly pushes her to attempt feats she initially considers impossible, from breaking trees and turtle shells to challenging opponents far above her level. 35 39 40 122
Her confidence can become reckless. She accepted Lu Xian’s favor-based challenge to destroy the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace gate, completed it with one punch, and only afterward worried about the guards and political consequences. 84 85
Despite her impulsiveness, Rongrong becomes increasingly forward-thinking. After learning Xiao Wu’s identity, she proposed nurturing Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing as future protectors for the sect rather than treating them as resources. She personally offered Xiao Wu shelter, pay, and a place in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. 87 88
Rongrong retains a mischievous and combative streak even after becoming a high-level Soul Master. She relishes using Battle God trials as a legitimate excuse to challenge old acquaintances, including Shrek’s faculty, but still limits her strikes enough to avoid permanently injuring them. 255 258
Although she enjoys direct combat, Rongrong has grown more responsible toward the sect and her companions. She recognizes the danger facing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, accepts its resources and support without hesitation, and is willing to coordinate with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing against opponents she could not efficiently defeat alone. 173 248 250
Abilities & Skills

Rongrong’s evolved gem-type Martial Soul is the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda, formerly the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. It is primarily a support Martial Soul, but she also uses the pagoda itself as a blunt weapon. 104 105 177 178

A forehead seal rewarded for Rongrong’s sixtieth Battle God trial. When released, the diamond-shaped mark spreads across her face and dramatically amplifies her physical power. 230 232
- Its activation, combined with the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda’s enhancements, allowed Rongrong to contend with and ultimately defeat Er Ming despite being a Soul Douluo. 230 232
- Rongrong credited the seal as the decisive factor in transforming her from being physically outmatched by Er Ming into an opponent capable of severely injuring him. 232

- Aromatic Silk Beauty — A divine-trial reward that evolved her Martial Soul from the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. 177
Relationships
- Ning Fengzhi — Her father and the current Sect Master. He initially worries that the trials are changing her too drastically, but supports her training, equips her with soul bones, and recognizes her as the sect’s future leader. He later fights alongside Chen Xin and Gu Rong against Rongrong’s team, acknowledging how far his daughter has surpassed her former limitations. 36 40 87 126 248 250
- Chen Xin — Her “Sword Grandpa” and principal protector. He accompanied her on her second soul-ring hunt, trained and observed her, and nearly intervened during her battle against Xiong Da. He later faces Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing as one of the sect’s three giants. 33 34 175 177 248 250
- Gu Rong — Her “Bone Grandpa.” He identifies loopholes in her trials, helps train her against soul-power shields, and provides guidance despite routinely being on the receiving end of her tests. He later surrenders after the three girls overcome his defenses through coordinated attacks. 40 122 125 248 250
- Xiong Da — Her Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear pet. Their early bond led her to bring it into the sect; years later, she unknowingly fought it during her fiftieth assessment. 34 175 176
- Xiao Wu — Close friend and prospective sect protector. Rongrong offers her protection and a paid position in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, intending for them to remain sisters for life. The two later support one another through divine trials, including their successive solo challenges of Shrek Academy’s teachers. 87 88 255 258
