A WEEK after the opening ceremony of Arcadia Cup, a lot of matches had already taken place. Since the format of the tournament was a round robin, each team participating had to at least fight nine times.

So with 10 teams in each six blocks, there should be about 540 matches to take place in the duration of a month. Which was the duration of the whole qualifiers. With that number of matches and a month deadline, there should be at least 18 matches held in a day.

With that analysis, in the past week, 126 matches had already taken place. Some teams had already fought twice while others only once. Team Yunyue belonged to the latter. But despite that, their fight was still the one most talked about.

Not only the topics related to them at the top of the game forum, screenshots of their fight was reposted on Weibo hundreds of times, especially those of YUN and Noctis. Everyone was not only praising their skills, but their visuals as well.

Of course, this much attention would also cause a negative response from others. Especially those who were fans of other teams. Because of trolls who were purposely making comments that would antagonize those fans—like saying that team Yunyue would kick their favorite team's ass, stuff like that. The fans would fight back and then insult team Yunyue back.

But overall, the public's reaction to team Yunyue's comeback was pretty positive.

And now, they would be having their second match.

The five were at their team's headquarters, waiting for the start of their match to teleport to Lunaris Vale.

"Are we still not fighting in this match?" Rowan asked with that usual sulky expression.

"I told you, you and Dusk are our secret weapons. You have to appear at a special stage," Bai Ze said.

Rowan seemed to like that answer. He raised his chin in a proud manner, then glanced at Eclipse, as if saying, 'did you hear that?'.

Eclipse only rolled his eyes at the other.

"I wonder who our opponents will be?" Luo Yan asked to no one in particular.

"I hope it's that vampire's team," Su Yuqi said.

Luo Jin nodded in agreement.

Luo Yan chuckled, seeing the reaction of the two. He knew that both had some kind of grudge against Alucard, so having this reaction was natural.

"Whoever it is, we just have to do our best," Shen Ji Yun simply said.

"Exactly," Bai Ze said. "By the way, shall we have another in-real life meeting next week?"

"Sure, why not? As long as it won't lead to two people going off on a date," Luo Jin quipped in a dry tone.

Su Yuqi raised her brow. "Oh yeah, I heard about that. You two went on a date and even had a sleepover. How did that go?"

There was a hint of teasing in her voice, which wasn't something she would usually do. Showing that she found this situation very amusing.

"Right. Imagine my surprise when I logged out of Arcadia that day to eat lunch and I found out that my best friend picked up my cousin to help him 'study'," Bai Ze added, giving Shen Ji Yun and Luo Yan a meaningful glance.

"Hah, the surprise you felt probably wouldn't even match mine," Luo Jin said with a scoff.

Shen Ji Yun didn't say anything and just maintained his expressionless face. But if one looked closely at him, they would see the tip of his ears turning red.

Luo Yan, on the other hand, smiled without any hint of embarrassment. "Yes, it was a very informative 'study session'."

Su Yuqi laughed at that. Bai Ze gave an exaggerated gasp, as if he heard something scandalous. Luo Jin only frowned to show his dissatisfaction.

"Pink sister said it's a date, but big lion said it's studying, Master, which one is it? Eclipse is confused," the little boy asked, tilting his head.

Luo Yan ruffled Eclipse's hair. "It's a bit of both. Your Captain and I had a date and then we studied... things." He glanced at Shen Ji Yun. "Isn't that right, Brother Ji Yun?"

Now, Shen Ji Yun felt his whole face slowly heating up. It's because Luo Yan's words reminded him of the rather intense make-out sessions they had. One in the restaurant's private room and the other in the guest room. The latter they did a bit stealthily because Uncle Yue was monitoring them quite closely. Which actually was a bit exciting, if he might say so himself.

He was about to answer, but felt like he would stammer if he did, so he cleared his throat first. "Yes. It was... fun."

Luo Jin narrowed his eyes at Shen Ji Yun and asked, "Surely, you didn't just ignore my reminder, correct?"

Shen Ji Yun turned to the other. Luo Jin's question calmed down his mood. "Nothing that shouldn't happen, happened. If that's what you're asking."

Luo Jin still looked very dissatisfied, but no longer questioned Shen Ji Yun. Which was quite the improvement. If this was before, he would have already probably punched Shen Ji Yun by now.

Before anyone could make a comment on that, the time for their second match finally arrived. And so, the five members of team Yunyue, together with Eclipse, teleported once again to Lunaris Vale.

Team Sanguis' second match just ended. Of course, it was their win. The team was teleported back to their headquarters.

"Argh... I didn't manage to defeat a single enemy from the opposite team! You should have sent one on my way," the wolf beastkin—Tang Xun—complained.

"Ah Xun, isn't it your fault for not being good enough?" a tall silver-haired man with eyes like a snake said, mocking the other in that teasing kind of way.

"Brother Jian--!"

Yin Jian only shrugged at the teenager.

"Ah~ that match is a bit boring," Xu Ru complained, stretching out both hands. "I guess Yunyue will be the only worthy opponent on our block."

Qin Rushi only rolled her eyes at that comment.
