In the fierce energy confrontation, An Qing and Ye Wan gradually felt exhausted, while the principal seemed to have endless power.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to break through!" An Qing shouted.

Ye Wan suddenly had an idea: "Let's concentrate our strength to attack one spot and break his energy defense!"

The two understood each other, gathered the energy of the bracelets together, and rushed towards the principal's right side.

The principal hadn't anticipated their sudden change of strategy, and a moment of negligence left a gap in his defenses. An Qing and Ye Wan took advantage of the opportunity to break through his defenses and charge straight towards the energy core.

Just as they were about to touch the core, the principal attacked again. A powerful energy wave hit Ye Wan, and she was instantly knocked away and fell heavily to the ground.

"Ye Wan!" An Qing shouted anxiously.

Ye Wan struggled to get up and shouted, "Don't worry about me, An Qing, go and shut down the core!"

An Qing held back her tears, leaped with all her might, and grasped the energy core tightly with both hands. The core emitted a strong light, trying to bounce her away, but An Qing gritted her teeth and refused to let go.

Finally, with her efforts, the core's light began to gradually weaken, and the surrounding runes slowly disappeared. Seeing this, the principal roared in anger, but was powerless to stop it.

As the core was shut down, the smoke in the basement gradually dissipated, and everything returned to calm. An Qing collapsed to the ground exhausted. Ye Wan struggled over, and the two hugged each other and cried.

At this time, the school returned to its former state.

An Qing and Ye Wan supported each other as they walked out of the basement. The sun was shining brightly outside, as if everything they had just experienced was just a nightmare.

However, they knew that this was an adventure they would never forget. When they returned to the classroom, their classmates knew nothing about their experience and continued to laugh and play.

"It feels like a very long dream." Ye Wan sighed.

An Qing nodded: "But this also makes us realize that there are still many unknowns in the world waiting for us to explore."

After school, they came to the school garden and decided to bury the secret deep in their hearts.

Just then, the old cleaner appeared behind them.

"Kids, you did a great job." said the old man with a smile.

An Qing and Ye Wan turned around in surprise.

The old man continued, "There are still many unknown mysterious powers in this world. I hope you can remain brave and curious."

After saying that, the old man turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing in the afterglow of the sunset.

An Qing and Ye Wan looked at the direction he left, their eyes full of determination.

Years later, An Qing and Ye Wan have grown up. Ye Wan, confident and courageous, always believes that the magical power she once experienced will always be on her side, ensuring her success. Meanwhile, her relationship with An Qing gradually fades.

An Qing continued to keep a low profile, relying on her mother for support. One day, her mother told An Qing, "My daughter, put on some makeup and look pretty. You must go on a blind date at a nobleman's manor. The prince is powerful and would be a good match."

Although An Qing was reluctant, she dressed up carefully and went there in order not to make her mother sad.

Ye Wan also learned the news. She wanted to curry favor with the powerful and wealthy, so she took this opportunity to dress up and go to the manor.

Just as An Qing was passing a corridor, Ye Wan was hurrying along, and the two brushed past. Ye Wan stopped, turned around, and said with a sneer on her face, "Hey, An Qing, you want to climb this high branch too? Don't dream on, the prince will only be attracted to someone like me."

An Qing looked at Ye Wan and felt sad, but she said nothing and just continued walking forward silently.

At this moment, a lady named Elizabeth came over. She was wearing a gorgeous silk dress and an exquisite feather headdress, and her eyes were full of majesty and shrewdness.

Madam Elizabeth frowned and looked at Ye Wan and said, "How disgraceful it is to yell here!"

Ye Wan's face instantly turned awkward, and she quickly bowed and apologized: "Madam, I...I spoke carelessly."

Madam Elizabeth looked at An Qing again, and after looking her up and down, she nodded slightly and said, "This girl looks dignified and decent."

An Qing bowed politely: "Madam, you are so kind."

Madam Elizabeth snorted and turned away. Ye Wan glared at An Qing fiercely and quickly followed Madam Elizabeth's footsteps.

The prince's name was Alex.

The lady bowed respectfully to Prince Alex, a flattering smile on her face. However, Prince Alex only glanced at the lady with a faint glance, his eyes revealing obvious disdain, clearly looking down on this lady who was deliberately trying to please him.

When Ye Wan saw the prince, she quickly took the opportunity to bow gracefully and said in a sweet voice, "Hello, Your Highness." Prince Alex heard the voice and turned to look at Ye Wan, but there was no fluctuation in his eyes, as if Ye Wan was just an insignificant stranger.

The servant next to him wore glasses and looked at the paper in his hand, reading out the women's names one by one.

At this time, another woman named Mina also came forward and greeted the prince with a smile: "Good day, Your Highness."

A man came with a girl on his arm. The girl's name was Alice.

The man bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, it's a pleasure to meet you." Alice then performed a standard curtsy and whispered, "Your Highness, how are you?"

The prince just nodded slightly.

The man then said to the prince, "Your Highness, I have come here to choose a suitable partner for my daughter Ellie."

The prince said, "Wait a moment." Then his eyes continued to wander among the crowd.

The aloof and unwomanly prince upstairs is named Ryan.

Ryan nodded slightly to the woman downstairs, and the woman hurriedly saluted respectfully.

Alex stood there, his posture erect and his expression impassive, as the servant methodically called out the women's names. His eyes casually scanned the crowd before him, never lingering on any one woman. With each name, he simply nodded slightly, his face betraying no interest or anticipation.

The servant said loudly, "Miss An Qing."

Alex's gaze then focused slightly on An Qing, looking her up and down, but his expression remained cold.

An Qing saluted gracefully, but Alex nodded without any interest. Seeing this, An Qing turned and left without staying any longer.

All of this was seen by Ryan upstairs. He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

Ryan's eyes followed An Qing's departing back, and a hint of curiosity arose in his heart.

However, Alex still had no interest in the women who came, and the blind date seemed to have reached a deadlock.

Elsewhere, An Qing was strolling in the garden after leaving, secretly relieved. At this time, Ryan also came to the garden.

"Ms. An Qing." Ryan called her.

An Qing turned around and looked at Ryan in surprise, "Your Excellency?"

Ryan smiled slightly, "I'm Ryan, I just saw you upstairs."

An Qing smiled back politely, "It turns out to be Mr. Ryan."

Ryan took a few steps closer and asked, "Ms. An Qing doesn't seem too enthusiastic about this blind date?"

An Qing sighed softly, "I'm just following my mother's instructions."

A hint of admiration flashed in Ryan's eyes, "Ms. An Qing is quite frank."

The two chatted for a few sentences, and An Qing felt that Ryan was different from those noble children and did not have an overbearing attitude.

At this time, Alex also came to the garden to get some fresh air because he was bored. Seeing Ryan and An Qing chatting happily, he felt a little unhappy for some reason.

Ye Wan passed by the garden and saw An Qing chatting happily with Lei En. She suddenly felt uncomfortable. She bit her lip, the flame of jealousy burning in her heart.

Ye Wan walked up quickly and said sarcastically, "Hey, An Qing, you're really good at making connections."

An Qing frowned and said, "Ye Wan, don't talk nonsense."

Ye Wan snorted coldly: "Why? Did I poke your mind?"

Seeing this, Ryan said, "Miss, please be careful with your words."

Ye Wan glared at Ryan: "Who do you think you are? How dare you teach me a lesson?"

An Qing couldn't help but say, "Ye Wan, you're going too far!"

Just as the situation was about to get out of control, Alex came over and said, "What are you arguing about?"

When Ye Wan saw Alex, she immediately put on a smile and said in a sweet voice, "Your Highness, it's An Qing who doesn't know the rules."

Alex looked at An Qing, then at Ye Wan, and said, "Be quiet. This is a garden, not a busy city." After that, he turned and left.

Ye Wan glared at An Qing fiercely and followed Alex. An Qing shook her head helplessly and said to Ryan, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Ryan smiled and said, "It's okay. I trust you."

The lady's name is Evelyn, Ryan's mother.

Evelyn came over and said seriously, "Ryan, follow me."

Ryan frowned slightly, but still followed his mother obediently.

An Qing looked at their backs curiously as they left, then turned and left.

On the way back, An Qing met Ye Wan, who was looking very proud.

A woman named Selina was passing by, chatting with another lady named Betty. They were talking about three men, including Prince Alex and Ryan, and another man named Philip.

Selina lowered her voice and said, "Ryan is aloof and ruthless. He killed all those thug women before. Alex is aloof and treats people as if they are not human beings."

Betty continued, "Philip is the son of a great general. He has a powerful background and is very ruthless."

Selina shuddered after hearing this. "These guys are really hard to deal with. We should be careful."

Betty nodded. "Who says it isn't true? But if you can get close to her, you'll enjoy endless wealth and glory."

Selina curled her lips. "Just us? Don't dream, those noble ladies are still lining up."

The two of them walked away slowly while talking.

At this moment, An Qing listened to these words, and the images of these princes became clearer in her mind, and she also became more worried about this complicated aristocratic world.

Not long after, An Qing met Ryan, who had just separated from his mother, at a corner.

When Ryan saw An Qing, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

An Qing hesitated for a moment, then said, "I just heard some rumors about you..."

Ryan frowned, "Don't pay attention to that nonsense."

An Qing nodded slightly, and the two fell into a brief silence.

Ye Wan didn't care about what they said. She thought to herself, "Happiness must be earned by myself. I must win Alex."

So, Ye Wan dressed up carefully and frequently appeared in occasions where Alex might be, trying to attract his attention. She deliberately created chance encounters and showed off her most charming smile and gestures.

Once, at a palace ball, Ye Wan wore a gorgeous dance dress and danced in front of Alex, her eyes full of expectation and temptation.

Alex, however, remained indifferent and remained unmoved by Ye Wan's deliberate attempts to please him. However, Ye Wan was not discouraged. She firmly believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to win Alex's heart.
