After lunch, the cadets, just beginning to feel a bit full, mustered the courage to take on the afternoon's training.
As they anticipated, the entire afternoon was a time as if in hell.
Every second was excruciatingly hard to endure.
Their bodies were pushed to the extreme, with every muscle screaming out in tired agony. It was purely by gritting their teeth and relying on willpower that they completed one task after another.
An ambulance followed along the entire time. The usually leisure-filled doctors were probably rarely this busy, constantly checking on the cadets' injuries. Still, they seemed used to the scene, appearing calm and experienced, showing no signs of panic.
Yet, they were plenty busy.
Many cadets got injured during the training; abrasions and falls were the most common. Those who had fallen badly might get a short rest, but they needed to be penalized for taking a break—for instance, losing points.
