But during this time, Mission was not deprived of his training. As soon as he started running on the deck of the boat for his training, some less intelligent players saw him coming out. Embarrassed by Mission’s passionate workouts, they decided to complicate things for him by placing chairs in his way. But when Mission crossed these obstacles, he was followed by another set of chairs. But later these boys took a lenient approach and left him to do his training in peace.
