This was the announcement posted by the official Weibo account of Moonlight Media. It was also posted to the foreign SNS accounts they made so the new players from other countries would know about it.
Aside from the announcement, the foreign SNS accounts also included the streaming site where fans could watch the game live. Additionally, lucky players from each new server were able to watch the game from the main server. These players received an in-game mail informing them that they were chosen. The mail also included detailed instructions on how they could temporarily transfer servers for five days.
Since the international release of Arcadia, its popularity overseas had been skyrocketing. Famous game streamers were streaming their plays, and influencers were showing off the things they bought in the game. Some food bloggers even followed the trend, doing food reviews at the different restaurants in the game. This helped the game reach the general public much faster.
As evidence, once the announcement for the Arcadia Cup final tournament appeared on Moonlight Media foreign media accounts, the engagement was almost as if it was posted by some popular pop star or something.
[Arcadia Cup, what's that?]
- It's some kind of tournament held in Arcadia every year to decide the best team in the game.
- Would we also have Arcadia Cup in our server?
[I heard next year there will be something similar to Arcadia Cup, but it would include all servers.]
- What do you mean by that?
- The best team in each server would compete in a tournament. From my source, it's said that the winner of this year's Arcadia Cup would represent Country Z.
- Wait- isn't that unfair? I mean, they had been playing this game for years. We're only starting this year. Isn't it obvious that they would be the winner?
- Well, what can you do? The game is from Country Z, of course there will be bias.
[I can't actually wait to watch this tournament. I hope I will be one of the lucky chosen to watch it live on the Country Z server.]
- This! But why should it be random? There should be a raffle ticket or something. Like the more you buy, the higher your chance of being picked.
- Random is good. It all depends on chance and not on who spent more money.
- Right? It's better to leave it to chance, at least it's fairer this way.
[I wonder how good those players are.]
- They're definitely better than us, noobs.
- How much better would they be, I wonder?
[What's that tournament actually like, anyway? Do they actually fight?]
- LOL no, they dance together. ^^
- Hahahaha!
If the overseas players were mostly reacting to what Arcadia Cup was and wanting to be one of the lucky players chosen to watch it on Country Z's server, the domestic players' focus was totally different.
[Wow. They really didn't post the tournament block. *shockface emoji*]
- Right? It's not like this is the prelims or something. It's the finals! Are the teams not even allowed to prepare properly?
[Didn't they announce it in the previous years? So, why not do it now?]
- Moonlight probably just wanted the teams to struggle more. You know, for the enjoyment of those foreigners.
- Not gonna lie, I will also definitely enjoy watching the struggle.
- Upstairs +100
[But isn't it better that they didn't post the tournament block? It will be more exciting this way.]
[I actually can't wait for the quarter-finals and semi-finals. Just what will they do for that amazing race and RPG?]
- I have an idea for the amazing race, but RPG? What the hell will they do with that?
- Maybe they'll go to a dungeon and role-play? LOL.
- Upstairs, I think so too as well! Hahaha!

Luo Yan was reading through the comments. He was at the pavilion in the back garden of their house. On the table was a glass of home-made milk tea and a plate of mango pudding. They're a pair perfect for summer.
Since the college entrance examination was already over, he no longer needed to go to school. He would only have to go back for graduation, which would be on Saturday. Luo Jin, on the other hand, still had a week of school left, as summer would only start after the graduation of the third years.
Well, at least, summer vacation would start next week. Just in time for the final tournament of the Arcadia Cup.
With the announcement posted by Moonlight Media's official account, it was clear that it would still be a five-day event. Luo Yan was glad that they didn't change that part. At least after five days, no, it's technically four days, it would be over.
Not that he wanted it to immediately end, it's just better to fight for four consecutive days that have a break in between. At least their tension would stay up. The excitement and adrenaline would keep everyone focused and determined. A break would probably disrupt that flow.
There's one thing he could agree with the comments, though. And that's the fact that Moonlight Media didn't post the tournament block. He would have preferred if they did. At least then, they could better prepare. But it was what it was. Complaining about it wouldn't change anything.
Luo Yan wondered which team they would fight first. Whichever team it would be, he was confident that team Yunyue wouldn't lose.
