Unable to hold on, some of the C-level students had already withdrawn. Even the B-class students were beginning to falter. Those in the A and A+ tiers showed varying degrees of fatigue as well. The non-stop, mechanized work was simply too difficult.
Since everyone's energy levels were plummeting, the organizers arranged a rest period to prevent the students from collapsing from exhaustion. It would last for about three days.
During this time, the students would be supplied with ample food and drinks so they could rest fully before resuming the medical treatments. After these three days, the C-level students who had previously withdrawn would also be required to return to their posts. Although they had lost their eligibility for the competition, they still needed to train hard instead of just lying around in their dorms.
