Chapter 454: Play the Game with a Smile

At a glance, the Floating Stone Forest challenge seemed simple, but it held profound connotations.

This challenge not only tested the ability to cross the floating stones, but more importantly, one's mindset.

Moreover, the leaderboard was updated in real time, but the competitors didn't know how many levels the people on it had reached.

The existence of this leaderboard was designed to stoke urgency in the competitors.

When people feel rushed, encountering obstacles can naturally lead to feelings of frustration.

One person's mistake meant that the whole team had to start over, creating the potential for internal conflict within the teams.

If feelings of frustration were stirred, the difficulty of the challenge would increase.

The greater the difficulty, the easier it was to fail, and the more failures, the more anger would ensue.

This would then lead to a vicious cycle.
