158 We are special? (1/2)
One hour later, the teacher finally signaled them that they could stop.
As soon as he did so, everyone dropped down onto the floor, dead tired. If not for the pressure Mr. Martin exerted on them, then they wouldn't even be able to last so long. All of them were completely exhausted.
It wasn't clear whether team A or team B was more exhausted. Although repeatedly charging would consume a huge amount of stamina, withstanding the charge was exhausting as well. Still, both teams managed to hold on, with neither of them breaking down. In the end, team A was still able to use the 'Basic Spear Formation', while the 'Basic Turtle Formation' remained unbroken until the end.
”All of you did well.”, Mr. Martin praised the students who were strewn around the training ground. ”Although we do this every year, most of the time one group or the other falters before the time ends.”
”So we are special?”, Greg asked. Although he was completely exhausted, this couldn't stop him from talking.
”Nope, just more balanced.”, the teacher answered with a straight face.
”Pfff”, Greg commented disbelieving.
Mr. Martin's face broke out into a smile. ”Alright, alright. Since you lasted until the end and you did it at nearly full force, you did better than most other years.”
”Still, there are many things you have to improve on. But you have learned the first important lesson for team-formations. Hold them until you break down. If you ever use team-formations and can't hold them then you will most likely lose, so holding them is of utmost importance.”
”Now let's do some exercises that will help you recover.”
Everyone groaned but they somehow managed to follow along and it truly helped them recover.
After everyone was once again capable of moving around Mr. Martin ended the class, making everyone sigh in relief.

”That was so damn exhausting.”, Greg complained while sipping on his water, while they sat down in the resting area.
”Yes. But it was good training.”, Ivan agreed. And Irena nodded her head as well.
”So should we rest today, or should we go into the training dungeon and practice?”, she then asked.
”To be honest I'm so beat that I really just want to laze around in a bed.”, Ivan said, before following it up, ”But technically it would be the best for us to go to the dungeon to practice since it would enforce the training from just now.”
”But we need to rest first and then we need those shields if we want to practice.”, she reminded them.
”I can get the shields.”, Greg offered.
”Great. Then how about we rest and meet this evening to train?”
”This evening?”
”Yeah. Let's rest during the afternoon, then we should be fit enough again in the evening.”
”I'm ok with that.”, Serge agreed.
Everyone else agreed as well and they got up and made their way towards the school exit.
”So anyone got an idea on how to best relax and recover?”, Greg asked. It was the first time he was this exhausted and would have to be fit again on the same day.
”A good bath. Relaxing on a couch, reading something. Eating something.”, Irena told him.
”A bath and food sure sound great.”, he directly skipped the center part. Those two things would make him happy, while reading wasn't something he enjoyed that much.
”Of course the best thing would be a massage.”, the girl continued voicing out the options.
”Yeah. But they cost too much.”, Serge agreed. Getting everyone else to look at them. He was unusually talkative.
”What?”
”You talk so much.”, Greg praised him, ”Well, at least for your standard.”
