Background / History

Ning Rongrong first appears among the applicants for Shrek Academy. She passes its entrance test but watches Lan Yu’s conflict with Li Yusong with amusement rather than fear; his effortless victory makes her increasingly interested in him. After Lan Yu defeats Zhao Wuji, she abandons Shrek Academy and follows Lan Yu and Zhu Zhuqing toward Soto City. 9 10

Initially, Rongrong offers to pay Lan Yu and Zhu Zhuqing’s expenses so that she can remain with them. Lan Yu recognizes that her curiosity about his secrets is part of her motive, but she continues pressing for answers. Her interest becomes focused on whether the Sage Lord of Fungi can evolve her Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the legendary Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. 11 13

After witnessing Zhu Zhuqing’s martial-soul modification, Rongrong chooses to become a follower of the Sage Lord of Fungi. A green mushroom brings her into Bifulong’s Illusion Space, where Bifulong promises help with the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda’s future level-79 bottleneck in exchange for loyal faith. She then trains under Lan Yu alongside Zhu Zhuqing through sparring, cultivation, and Soul Arena matches. 14

Her cultivation reaches Level 30 in the Star Dou Great Forest. With Zhu Zhuqing disabling a ten-thousand-year colorful feather chicken, Rongrong kills the spirit beast and absorbs its ring successfully. She later proves that her enhanced body and self-buffs allow her to fight directly instead of remaining behind her teammates. 18 19

Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing earn Silver Soul Emblems, defeat the Imperial Team in a three-versus-seven Soul Arena match, and agree to join Lan Yu at Botanical Academy for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament. She uses her status as the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect’s young mistress to help Lan Yu obtain an audience with Botanical Academy’s dean, Su Qingluo. 21 22 23 24

At Botanical Academy, Lan Yu uses essence dew from the fungified Tulip of Immortality to evolve Rongrong’s Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda. He also gives her the Stretch Geo Fungus spirit spirit, opening an elemental path beyond her former support-only role. 33

Personality

Rongrong is outspoken, curious, and stubborn. Rather than withdrawing when Lan Yu accuses her of seeking his secrets, she continues following him and challenges him verbally. Her curiosity is practical as well as personal: she is especially motivated by the possibility of overcoming the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda’s limitations. 11 13

She retains the spoiled habits of a sect heiress, complaining when Lan Yu leaves her in the Star Dou Great Forest and disliking harsh cultivation schedules. However, she responds to pressure by training until she reaches Level 30 and later becomes eager to test herself against powerful opponents. 17 18

Rongrong is mischievous and confident in battle. She taunts Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, openly rejects the idea that support-system Soul Masters must remain passive, and takes pride in surprising opponents who underestimate her. 19 22 23

Her first killing leaves her unsettled, but she accepts Lan Yu’s guidance that violence is an unavoidable part of the Soul Master world. 21

Abilities & Skills
