There are two real solutions:

Clear[sq1]
Clear[xx]
solutions =
   Quiet@Solve[{(1/6)*((sq1*196)*2)^3 - (1/
           6)*((((2.75 + xx)*((3.75 + xx)*21^2))*100)*2)^3 ==
       1.2902698935932682*^18, (1/6)*((sq1*100)*2)^3 - (1/
           6)*((((2.75 + xx)*((3.75 + xx)*21^2))*36)*2)^3 ==
       1.883856772422697*^17}, {sq1, xx}];

realOnes = Select[solutions, FreeQ[#, Complex] &]

{{sq1 -> 5292., xx -> -6.75}, {sq1 -> 5292., xx -> 0.25}}

or

realOnes = Select[Chop@solutions, FreeQ[#, Complex] &]

{{sq1 -> 5292., xx -> -6.75}, {sq1 -> 5292., xx -> 0.25}}
