Heaven Dou Team One

Ning Rongrong ran up to her in a few quick steps and eagerly caught her hand, her voice trembling slightly with excitement. "Sister Xue, I have some earth-shattering good news to tell you!"

Swept up in her excitement, Snow White's lips curved into a smile. "Oh? What good news has you so happy?"

"I—" Ning Rongrong drew a deep breath, as though preparing to make an important declaration, and pronounced each word distinctly. "I. Am. Joining. Heaven. Dou. Team. One!"

With that, she stared into Snow White's eyes, eagerly awaiting her reaction.

Snow White did indeed freeze for a moment.

She remembered that, just a few days earlier at the academy, the three board members had explicitly stated that Ning Rongrong's soul power level fell short of the first team's requirements, and that the team already had a support system Soul Master.

How had that changed in just a few days?

"Really?" Even so, genuine delight shone in Snow White's eyes.

"The three board members agreed?"

"Yes!" Ning Rongrong nodded vigorously, pride written all over her little face.

"Father went to speak with the three board members himself! Though I'm only a reserve member."

She paused, her smile growing even brighter. "Sister Xue, now we can train together! I can see you every day and stand beside you in that arena!"

As Snow White looked at Ning Rongrong's little face, flushed with excitement, a warm current welled up in her heart.

She knew Ning Rongrong's temperament. For Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, to intervene personally and persuade the three board members to make an exception, a great deal of effort must have gone on behind the scenes.

"Rongrong," Snow White said softly, gently holding her hand.

"That couldn't have been easy, could it?"
