Update: Hiatus for a while My name is Joe. I've been playing games about dungeon-building all my life with the hope of being able to manage or create one myself. Of course, I know there were no dungeons IRL, but who knows? A good friend of mine who knows of my obsession with dungeons gave me a birthday gift yesterday. It was a game in a different genre than what I played usually. But since it was a gift he gave me, I played it. Though there weren't really any "dungeons" in it, the oldies Eastern aesthetic took me in. I played it as soon as I got it from him, no questions asked. What did it give me?! Unwanted transmigration into this world of extra bullshit!!
The competition started with a bang. Literally. The first competition to commence was alchemy, from the Cultivation category and the theme in this first round of the competition was healing pills. Every contestant must produce either healing pills or other things of the same nature, with the same or higher efficacy. All while they use the same standardized equipment they were not used to and a strict time limit. That's why puffs of smoke and the smell of burnt herbs wafted through the air, filling it to the displeasure of the spectators. Oh, and there was something stinky too. Someone must have failed really badly.
