After Coach Han's tactical briefing, it was already late, and Huang Chong returned to his room to rest.
Six consecutive days of high-intensity racing, rain or shine. Although he had yet to be dropped, thanks to the system's provisions, this was, strictly speaking, his first-ever multi-day race.
This high-intensity competition had left him feeling extremely fatigued, both physically and mentally.
'He couldn't even begin to imagine how riders endured the three Grand Tours on the World Tour, which lasted a full twenty-one days.'
'Especially since many riders participated in two Grand Tours in a single year.'
'And Kuss from Vismar was even more of a monster, participating in all three Grand Tours in a single year—'
'How terrifyingly intense must that be?'
'Now that he'd actually competed in a multi-day race, Huang Chong felt that if he were to participate in a Grand Tour right now, simply finishing without getting dropped would be his absolute limit.'
