At 9:30, after Jiang Jing finished training for the day, he wiped the sweat from his face with a towel.
Piplup and Aron sat back-to-back on the ground, completely exhausted.
"Pip~lu~~"
Too tired to even speak, Piplup felt that its future was bleak. Its very first day had been pure hell.
It had practiced moves for over an hour straight. Its hands hurt terribly now and had started to swell.
Looking at its arms, which had already gone numb, Piplup's eyes immediately welled up. It felt so wronged! It needed comforting.
"Pip-lup~~"
Seeing this, Jiang Jing quickly picked it up. He felt a little sorry for Piplup too; it had to undergo such grueling training right after being caught.

Instead of returning to the dormitory at this hour, he went to Radiant
