"Sure, sure, but can you get leave? We still have classes tomorrow," Ye Tian said hesitantly.
"That's no problem on my end. As long as you can go out tomorrow, we're good. Let's meet at the school gate tomorrow," Zhang Cheng assured him.
Getting leave was a piece of cake for him. He had already taken such a long break to go out training that another day or two hardly mattered. Most importantly, Zhang Cheng did not want to attend the theory classes. They were such a headache.
"All right, I'll talk to our mentor first, then we'll go out together tomorrow."
After confirming their departure time for the next day, Zhang Cheng returned to his room.
After a quick wash, Zhang Cheng took out Mudkip's Poké Ball and released it.
"Mud~ kip~"
Once Mudkip came out, it looked around curiously before turning to its Trainer.
"Mudkip, you must be hungry after going a whole day without food. Here, have something to eat." As he spoke, Zhang Cheng took out a Water-type Pokéblock and placed it in Mudkip's palm.
Mudkip curiously held the Pokéblock up to its nose and sniffed it, then finished it in a single bite.
After eating the Pokéblock, Mudkip looked at Zhang Cheng again, showing that it wanted more.
Seeing this, Zhang Cheng took out another two Pokéblocks. Mudkip snatched them up the moment it saw them and began stuffing them into its mouth.
Watching the adorable Mudkip, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Slow down. No one's going to take them from you."
"Mudkip!"
Mudkip felt that its Trainer had a good point, so it slowed down its eating.
"Mudkip, I'm your Trainer from now on. Let's work hard to get stronger together, okay?" Zhang Cheng said gently after feeding Mudkip its fill.
"Mud~ kip~"
