Power Hierarchy: The Eldest Daughter Awakens in the Noble Academy

[Not a pure power fantasy] [Melodrama] [Fictional World] [Ensemble Cast] [Morally Gray Characters] Jing Yuanxi was betrothed to Han Shixu at the age of seventeen. That lasted until he brought a commoner girl into their noble academy, not only publicly professing his love at the engagement banquet but also demanding to call off the marriage. He even abandoned her, his rightful fiancée, during a kidnapping to save that commoner girl instead. “Yuanxi, the Jing family will spare no expense to save you, but she only has me. I’m sorry.” Gagged and unable to make a sound, Jing Yuanxi could only watch as her fiancé led another woman away, while she herself was dragged onto a ship by a gang of ruthless kidnappers. Fortunately, Jing Yuanxi had awakened ahead of time. At first, she tried to negotiate with them, stating that she only wanted a marriage for appearance’s sake—as long as the Han and Jing families remained allied, no feelings were required. Han Shixu, however, rebuked her for being blinded by power and for being willing to sell her own marriage. Later, she returned from the legendary “Black Triangle,” and the entire maritime trade region fell under the Jing family’s control. While everyone else was forced to curry favor with her, the once-arrogant Han Shixu humbly begged her in private to continue their engagement. … Dean International is a renowned noble academy where the empire’s most prominent aristocratic families gather.
