33 Starlight Showdown (星光对决) is a short PvP cup bracket nested inside the Starlight Roaming event window. It runs from April 20, 2026 to April 27, 2026 and funnels the highest-reward PvP matches of Magic Renewal into a single seven-day competitive window. It is hosted in the arena inside Starlight Leisure Park.

77 The April 2026 cup was gated behind Starlight Roaming participation at Magic Level 30 and the Spirit Researcher rank. The recurring weekly version has a lower gate: as of late August 2026 it unlocks at Magic Level 20 once the player has been promoted to Apprentice Magician (见习魔法生).Queue through the Starlight Leisure Park arena during the event window.Standard Shining Contest rules apply: 3v3 rotation with morale points carrying over between turns.

99 Two details make the weekly version read differently from a normal ranked queue. It carries five difficulty tiers rather than one bracket, and the tier you face rises as your own wizard rank does, so the mode does not become easier as you progress. And the spirits you bring are raised to the highest cultivation level anywhere in your spirit box for the duration, which means a newly caught spirit performs at your account's ceiling rather than at its own level. Team choice therefore matters far more here than cultivation investment does.

2222 Starlight Showdown began as a windowed cup, but by mid-2026 it runs as a weekly event: each run opens Monday at 04:00 and closes the following Monday at 04:00, and the official account announces the refresh every week. The format still asks players to field spirits obtained during that week's run, and it unlocks at magic level 20 with the Trainee Magic Student (见习魔法生) rank. Weekly runs have continued without a break across the Season 2 and Season 3 transitions; the most recent confirmed windows are July 20 to 27, July 27 to August 3, and August 3 to 10, 2026.
