Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 221 Who has nothing better to do than hold the horse girl's feet and watch? (1w)

Kitahara was not unfamiliar with the two horse girls, Miura Bourbon and Miyu.

Not only do they have memories of the other world, but at the Central Tresen College's opening ceremony this year, the two of them went to the "Big Eater Competition" held by the team.

The two of them also participated together in subsequent team training.

It was not uncommon to participate in the training of the Eternal Team at Central Tresen College.

As long as it is not special training for the horse girls, the team will never object to other horse girls participating in regular training such as running side by side.

In Kitahara's opinion, this is a good opportunity to compare the data of horse girls in various growth environments and training conditions.

Compared to Miura Bourbon, Miyu participates less frequently. Even if the latter comes to participate, it is with classmates, or it can be said that he only comes because of the enthusiastic invitation of classmates.

This is consistent with Kitahara's memory and what he observed during the contact.

Miura Bourbon received very strict training since childhood and rarely had the opportunity to talk to others. As a result, he developed a taciturn personality and a style of doing things that prefers to measure things with numbers.

At school, classmates often commented that she looked like a robot because of her expressionless face, which gave her the nickname "Cyber ​​Umamusume".

But in fact, she is not without emotion, it's just that the way she expresses it is not very obvious.

For example, when she was participating in the training of the Eternal Team, she would also be happy because of her excellent test results, but this happiness would only be expressed through slightly shaking ears and wagging tail.

If you only look at her expression that looks like she's wearing an iron mask, you can only conclude that "she doesn't seem to feel anything."

Mi Yu has a timid and weak character.

The name of this horse girl has the connotation of "happiness" in Japanese culture, referring to the traditional Japanese wedding where rice is thrown at the newlyweds when they are married.

Just contrary to its name, Mi Yu does have some inexplicable bad luck.

For example, when she bought fried noodles bread for breakfast, she found that there was no fried noodles inside, or when she bought instant cup noodles, she found that there was no seasoning packet or fork inside. This kind of thing happened to her very often.

Sometimes, this bad luck will more or less affect the people around you.

As time went by, she not only gradually came to believe that she was the one who brought misfortune to others, but many horse girls in the academy also kept their distance from her, and privately muttered about topics like "signs of bad luck."

This is not so obvious in the current timeline.

But at the time of the original work, Miyu often acted alone, and the only people who were close to her were the two horse girls: Miura Bourbon, with whom she had a unique bond because of the competition, and Haru Ulala, who was optimistic by nature.

It seems that because of these reasons, although she is introverted, she will not refuse as long as her classmates invite her to play or train together.

"These two children... it's just a coincidence."

After hearing Kitahara's doubts, Luduo smiled as if nothing had happened, walked to Miura Bopang and Mi Yu who was hiding behind Miura Bopang, and touched their heads one by one.

"Something unexpected happened when applying for holiday training."

Patting the heads of the two juniors, Luduo explained with a symbolic smile:
"The academy generally allows students to stay in school after the holidays until the start of the next semester, and there will be special teachers and instructors to take care of them during this period."

"Only with the consent of the parents."

"These two children do not plan to go home during the holidays this year. They want to continue training in the academy, and their parents agree."

Hearing this, Kitahara nodded calmly.

Although I haven't had any deeper contact with this world yet, from my memory, both Miura Bourbon and Miyu have undergone special training of unusual intensity.

In terms of pedigree and body shape, Miho Bourbon is clearly a short-distance specialized racehorse.

There are some excellent short-distance racers in both the sire and dam lines, and the shorter and more powerful waist is also suitable for the explosive power required for short-distance races.

However, it can be said that he had changed his fate. In the subsequent rigorous slope training, Bourbon Miura's cardiopulmonary skills and muscle toughness were greatly enhanced, and his adaptability to the race and corresponding strength were also greatly improved.

With the abilities gained from such rigorous special training, she won the Gaoyue Sho and Japan Derby in a row.

However, the last stop of the classic triple crown, the Chrysanthemum Appreciation, was not won, and the reason was precisely the rice bath.

The conditions in Miyu are more suitable for long-distance competitions in all aspects, and the results also prove this.

However, due to her petite stature, she needs a stronger physique to fully tap her talent in long-distance running.

To achieve this, she underwent rigorous training that was no less rigorous than that of Miura Bourbon, and thus not only won the 3000-meter Chrysanthemum Shooting, but also performed brilliantly in the 3200-meter Emperor’s Spring Shooting.

Perhaps in this parallel world, this has become a part of their character, so it is not surprising that they choose to train in the academy instead of going home during the holidays.

"For safety reasons, horse girls who choose to stay overnight will have to go through an additional daily check-in process."

Lu Duo gestured symbolically, "It uses facial recognition, fingerprint authentication, etc. to ensure that they don't run around."

"result……"

She looked down at Miura Bourbon and Miyu and sighed with some amusement.

"I don't know what happened, but the time clock at Miura Bourbon broke down right away."

"Mi Yu happened to be nearby. She wanted to help, but she didn't expect that her time clock would also have problems."

"Moreover, after I took the time clock to be repaired, it was still in the same condition when I brought it back. Even replacing it with a new one didn't work."

Oh, I understand, it’s the “Electric Appliance Killer” Miura Bourbon, right?

Kitahara suddenly became funny and helpless.

This detail has also appeared in the Yongshi team's previous training. Specifically, the various instruments set up by the team around the training grounds would sometimes malfunction for unknown reasons.

For example, the clarity of the images uploaded by the instrument is reduced, or the delay is much slower than usual.

The other members tried to figure out what was going on, especially Shin Shin-Ki and Miyamura Kyoko, who were mainly in charge of the equipment.

But it took a long time and the situation was still not figured out.

At the beginning, Kitahara was also confused. After all, the equipment used by the team was the best on the current timeline, and theoretically this situation would not occur.

But he didn't know much about technology, so he had to leave the professional matters to the Xinxin Guanghui and the others and try to look at the situation from other angles.

As a result, he discovered that the instrument malfunctioned whenever Miura Bourbon came to participate in training.

At this moment, he remembered that this horse girl had a role as an "electrical killer" in the original work.

This kind of setting in anime and games usually involves not using electrical appliances and causing them to break, but Miura Bourbon is a very special setting.

She became an "electrical appliance killer" because of the "law of cause and effect".

To give a simple example, in the original work, there was a self-training session where she wanted to watch a game on TV. But when she picked up the remote control to operate it, the TV screen exploded.

Because of this, she was chased all the way by her squad leader Sakura Jinwang, but she managed to complete her independent training.

But judging from the incident itself, it has nothing to do with the conventional "electrical appliance killer" who "cause problems due to not knowing how to operate electrical appliances". It seems that as long as she touches or contacts electrical appliances, they will cause malfunctions.

Kitahara felt that there was no way to explain this situation. If he had to explain it, he could only say that this was a world where the three goddesses existed, and that this could only be regarded as the goddesses' bad taste.

However, it is somewhat similar to the field. Even if Bourbon Miura's physique may really be a "special physique given by God", it is not unsolvable from a scientific point of view.

After communicating privately with Shining Shining and "assuming" that it was Uma Musume's domain or some other reason that affected the electronic equipment, the team leader quickly came up with a solution.

She installed specific "blockers" on various equipment.

Kitahara naturally didn't understand the principle, but the effect was very obvious. From then on, there were no more problems with the instrument.

Theoretically, this thing should be called the "Miura Bourbon Shield", but saying that directly would be too hurtful to other people's feelings.

After all, even though she seems to have no emotions, as a horse girl, Miura Bourbon is naturally sensitive, and she certainly doesn't want to cause trouble for others.

So, when they encountered what the team had experienced again, Kitahara wanted to try to explain the situation that Luduo symbolized, or simply change the subject, but he didn't expect to be overtaken by someone else.

"Ugh... It's Miyu's fault that caused Bourbon-san to fall into misfortune... It's all Miyu's fault..."

"……Why?"

This sound of doubt was not only made by Kitahara, but also by the Luduo symbol who was just amused and distressed, including Miura Bhopone who was standing in front of Mi Yu with an expressionless face.

"Unlucky……?"

After making a puzzled sound, Miura Bourbon turned around and stared straight at Mi Yu.

Miura Bourbon's appearance itself has a somewhat stern meaning, and he usually has a stern face, so this kind of stare is very oppressive.

Mi Yu, who was originally very timid, was frightened all of a sudden and instantly let out screams and panic sounds like a small animal.

“Ah! No, don’t be mean to me. I don’t want to be like this…”

Why does this expression and this scene seem so familiar... Never mind, the point is that this is not your fault, Mi Yu...

Looking at the scene in front of him with amusement, Beiyuan couldn't help rubbing his forehead. Just as he was about to try to speak to ease the somewhat chaotic atmosphere, he was overtaken again.

"I'm very sorry. I didn't explain my situation clearly."

With a very formal tone and without any emotion, Miura Bourbon suddenly bowed to Mi Yu.

"I have a setting of 'can't touch electrical appliances'."

"I originally thought that these would be stored in the academy's data like the information on the feet, but it seems that this is not the case."

"Anyway, it's not Mi Yu's problem, it's my own problem."

"...There is, there is such a setting... No, no, there is such a situation, Mi has never thought of it..."

"Mi" or "Mi Yu" is how Mi Yu habitually calls herself, or it can be said to be a habit of speaking. After asking the question timidly, she waved her hands repeatedly and explained in a panic, as if she was afraid of making someone angry.

"M-Mm, it's not that I don't believe Bourbon-san, I just, I've never heard of such a thing... I'm, I'm very sorry..."

"...?"

Finally showing a look of emotion, as if a program failed to respond, Miura Bourbon slightly widened his eyes and opened his mouth a little.

"Confusion... is not your problem, why are you sorry...?"

"This, this... I don't know either..."

Miura Bourbon rarely interacts with her classmates on weekdays, so not many horse girls know her personality. The same happens to be the case with Mi Yu.

So the conversation between the two of them at this moment was like two unresponsive "exes", staring at each other.

On the side, the Ludo symbol who was in charge of leading the introduction touched his chin with a strange expression.

"You can't touch electrical appliances, or something strange will happen if you touch them...?"

After thinking for a while, she shook her head again, looked at Beiyuan and smiled.

"Anyway, that's probably what happened."

"Let's just assume that this is Miura Bourbon's peculiar trait. After failing to clock in successfully several times, for safety reasons, the academy hopes that she and Miyu can go home and be taken care of by their parents."

"Of course, if it can be confirmed that this is Miura Bourbon's own special situation, then Mi Yu can still continue to stay in the academy as he originally thought."

"But when I was communicating with the relevant departments of the college, I thought about it and felt that besides staying in the college or going home, if they wanted to practice, then there was another place for them to go."

As she spoke, her smile widened and she nodded towards Kitahara.

"Of course it's your side."

"Whether it's the level of the trainers, the team skills, the venue conditions, the training partners, etc., you are a very good choice."

"And I also asked them both, and they both said they had contact with you and they trust you very much."

"We have also communicated with their parents. When they heard that they could receive training in the Eternal Team, they quickly agreed."

"So I brought them here to see if there were any problems on your end."

"You... this is really sudden, Luduo..."

In fact, before Luduo finished her symbol, Beiyuan had almost guessed her plan, and even had some other speculations.

According to Ludo's previous style of doing things, he usually wouldn't do things so suddenly as he is doing now.

The training situation of the Eternal Team is indeed good, and there will be no problem even if there are two more horse girls, especially since there are already horse girls of the same age like Oguri Roman and East Sea Emperor.

However, if you really want to arrange the corresponding training, you still need to make some preparations in advance, otherwise it will conflict with the established training.

With the experience and intelligence symbolized by Ludo, he would not fail to consider this, and normally it would have to be communicated in advance.

So the fact that she brought Miura Bourbon and Miyu here directly now can only mean that she has other plans.

Kitahara suddenly thought of what Katsuragi Ace hadn't finished saying before, and Rudo's obvious interruption.

So, is there any connection between the arrangements for Miura Bourbon and Rice Bath and what we haven’t finished talking about before?

Although he thought so in his heart, Kitahara did not continue to ask, but retracted his distressed expression and nodded.

"That's it, since both of them and their parents agree, there won't be any big problems on our end."

As he spoke, he joked, "It just so happens that with the help of you and the school, this seaside resort seems a bit too big. When Xiao Limao and the others train, it looks a bit too empty."

"Okay, I'll give you their files later."

After receiving a positive answer, Lu Duo was delighted, and then changed the subject slightly, "For now, let's go to Winning Live first."

"I roughly checked the time when I came here, and also watched today's game in the car."

"It was wonderful, I mean the performances of Oguruma, Little Bay and Aldan."

“I think today’s Winning Live will be very lively and exciting.”

This suggestion is in line with Beiyuan and his team's original plan.

They originally wanted to get ready in the audience seats of Winning Live, but they came here halfway after receiving a call from Luduo.

As they were heading to the audience area together, Luduo, who had deliberately stayed at the end of the team, started talking about the previous topic again.

"There are quite a lot of detailed files. I believe you can handle them, but at this moment..."

She took out her phone and slowly completed a few operations. "I think I can tell you about the two children's situation in advance."

As Luduo performed the symbolic operation, Beiyuan, who was walking side by side with her, soon felt the vibration of the mobile phone in his pocket.

I was quite familiar with the Emperor President, and when I saw her lagging behind, I knew she must have something to say, so Beiyuan also fell behind.

At this moment, I felt my phone vibrate, and after a little thought I realized that it was probably some information being transmitted.

Without responding immediately, Kitahara took out his cell phone and looked through it carefully for a while, then frowned slightly.

What Luduo symbolically transmitted was some parameter information of Meipu Bourbon and Miyu.

The Yongshi team also has a certain amount of information on this, based on past experience in running together and training together.

In comparison, the one symbolizing Luduo clearly came from the college's archives department, with more categories, including not only training and competition aspects, but also more detailed physical examinations, past experiences, family situations and other information.

This can complement what the team has collected to form a more comprehensive reference.

Luduo Symbol also noticed Beiyuan's frown, and as if affected, she also frowned slightly.

"It seems that you think so too. Their current situation is still a long way from their desired goals."

"...Well, to be honest, if they are in their current state, it will be almost impossible for them to achieve their goals."

Staring at the phone screen, sliding his fingers up and down, Beiyuan said in a deep voice:
"Mi Yu is better. It's probably because she's introverted and doesn't socialize much. She doesn't have a particularly clear goal."

"Compared to her goal, what she wrote in her profile, 'I want to be a horse girl who brings happiness to everyone', is probably more like a dream."

"I will have a good conversation with her later."

"But if it's Miura Bourbon..."

Kitahara was silent for a moment.

"Oh, yes, if it's Miura Bourbon..."

Reciting Beiyuan's words like a parrot, Lu Duo sighed heavily and then smiled bitterly:

“If I were to meet another horse girl, I would be happy to hear that she wanted to become a ‘Triple Crown Horse Girl’ and give her words of encouragement.”

"But in a situation like Miura Bourbon, even I wouldn't have the confidence to encourage her."

"If I have to say it out loud, I would feel that such words are somewhat against my will."

Rudo's symbolic words basically showed her disapproval of Meteor Bourbon.

Kitahara can understand this, because the data shows that today's Miura Bourbon has absolutely no adaptability to the Classic Triple Crown.

It’s not about the possibility of winning, but about the complete lack of adaptability.

The 2000m Gaoyue Sho, the 2400m Japan Derby and the 3000m Kikuka Sho are all middle and long distance races in the Classic Triple Crown.

Without discussing the outcome, just talking about finishing the race normally, one needs to have enough adaptability to complete the race.

However, at the moment, Miura Bourbon has no adaptability to medium and long distances.

Data from all aspects show that she should be better at short distances.

"I understand your concerns. In fact, if it were now, I would not be able to say anything encouraging to Miura Bourbon."

After hearing Luduo's symbolic sigh and then silence, Kitahara also sighed.

"In terms of body shape, horse girls with strong adaptability to short distances are generally of medium height." "They have well-developed fascicular muscles, less subcutaneous fat, longer lower limbs, well-developed thigh muscles, a larger proportion of the calf in the leg length, and slender ankles, etc."

“And Miura Bourbon meets all of these requirements.”

"This body type allows her to have strong explosive power. In this regard alone, she may be comparable to Oguruma... Of course, I mean after she becomes a master."

Regarding the power level of Miura Bourbon, Kitahara remembered that there was a setting in the original work that seemed outrageous to him.

It is said that the Miura Bourbon can support its body with its tail alone.

The tail of a Uma Musume is the same as that of a horse, formed by the continued extension of the spine, usually consisting of 16 to 18 coccygeal vertebrae.

Like other parts of the skeleton, the tail also has structures such as spinal nerves, spinal cord, blood vessels, etc.

However, since the diameter of the coccyx is much smaller than the bones in the arms, legs and other parts of the body, there are not many muscles attached to the coccyx.

The entire tail is covered by 6 muscles, 12 on each side.

These muscles can also be very thin, and continue to become thinner as they extend longitudinally toward the end of the tail.

So generally speaking, the horse girls' tails are basically used to maintain balance. When they are running at high speed and turning, they can use their tails to better adjust their center of gravity and maintain stability.

Of course, it also has daily functions such as expressing emotions and keeping warm.

If frightened, Uma Musume's tail will stand up and her fur will stand on end.

If it is in a good mood, it will unconsciously swing its tail left and right.

In terms of keeping warm, as long as it is properly cared for, the thick tail hair can act like a scarf in the cold winter.

But using a tail like this to support the body is definitely not something that an ordinary horse girl can do.

Even Oguruma and Inari, who are known for their strength in the Eternal Team, have not been seen to have such strange abilities so far.

Therefore, the nickname of Miura Bourbon in the original work, "Monster Horse", is not groundless.

After expressing his admiration for Miura Bourbon's power, Kitahara pondered for a moment and said:

"Although it's not mentioned in the data, in theory, Miura Bourbon's feet should also conform to the characteristics common to horse girls with strong adaptability to short distances."

"For example, the Achilles tendon is long and flat, the toes are more even and shorter, the toe joint structure is stronger, etc. I think she has all of these... No, Luduo, why are you looking at me like that?"

Kitahara was originally analyzing the situation of Miura Bourbon seriously, but he noticed out of the corner of his eye that the symbol of Luduo beside him suddenly had a strange expression and a weird look, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"Is there nothing on my face...?"

He couldn't help rubbing his face.

"It's not that there's anything strange on his face, it's just..."

Looking at Kitahara strangely, Luduo rubbed his face, glanced at Xiaolimao and the others in front of him for a moment, and lowered his voice.

“Although I can probably understand that you know so much about horse girls’ feet because of your job as a trainer…”

"But you don't usually hold Little Chestnut's feet and look at them, do you?"

"This could easily be considered harassment under the URA association's regulations."

"You need to pay attention."

I'm paying special attention to you!
Are you crazy? I usually look at MRI color ultrasound images or case anatomy images. How could I hold Uma Musume's feet and look at them for no reason? !

In that way, besides seeing "Hmm, this white foot is really beautiful", can you see something related to the game? !

I am very serious!

Feeling that his profession was insulted, Kitahara knew his face turned black without even looking in the mirror.

After all, Lu Duo, who had been staring at him, now showed an embarrassed look.

"I'm sorry, don't get me wrong. I'm just giving you a little reminder based on my principles as the student council president. I don't mean anything else..."

He stretched out his hand, and pinched out a gap between his thumb and index finger so that no light could get through, indicating that he was really just giving a slight reminder, and then Luduo quickly changed the subject.

"Um... continue to talk about this. What exactly is the situation with Miura Bourbon?"

"Tsk, pay attention to the weird old Deng..."

Still complaining in a low voice with resentment in his heart, Kitahara rubbed his face again, pointed at the phone screen, and said unhappily:
"Actually, there's nothing else to it. The core is that he's obviously better at short distances in terms of body type and various indicators."

"Look, I was just talking about the feet. If we're talking about the legs, the proportions of the legs and calves of Miura Bourbon are also very suitable for short distances."

"With a height of 1 meters, the leg length ratio is estimated to be about half, which is very suitable for instantaneous force."

"Besides, the proportion of the thigh is relatively small, so when running short distances, the center of gravity will move forward faster, and the folded thigh and calf will swing forward more powerfully."

"Especially when the calf is long, the pushing speed is faster, which is more conducive to completing the supporting and buffering action and shortening the supporting time."

"other aspects……"

After thinking for a while, Kitahara shook his head.

"The information provided by the academy and collected by the team have not yet involved very detailed aspects such as the cardiopulmonary and metabolic aspects."

"But judging by its body shape, Miura Bourbon has very good cardiopulmonary function and anaerobic metabolism."

"The hemoglobin content in the blood should also exceed the average standard. The vital capacity and step index are also excellent."

“In short, if you really want to participate in the Classic Triple Crown, you have to change all three events to less than 1400 meters.”

"Otherwise, with the current situation of Miura Bourbon, there is definitely no hope. We may not even be able to finish the race."

When talking to the Rudo symbol, the two of them were some distance away from the trainer and the horse girl in front of them, and their voices were not loud.

But Kitahara's tone at this moment was full of affirmation, and so was his heart.

The timeline that Miura Bourbon is in now is too early.

In contrast, in the parallel world, she made her debut after undergoing rigorous "ramp training" and won the first two championships of the Classic Triple Crown in an undefeated manner.

Before that, she had no adaptability to middle and long distance running. It was the "hill training" that could be described as "reversing fate" that changed her physique and enabled her to achieve excellent results in running longer distances.

In this world, the timeline has changed, and without special training, she really can't think about the Triple Crown event.

In comparison, Mi Yu, who came with her, even though he has not yet completed his transformation, the existing data from all aspects is enough to show that the latter, like in the other world, is extremely good at long-distance competitions.

Thinking of Mi Yu, Beiyuan simply continued the conversation with Luduo.

“If I don’t talk about my own dream, I am more optimistic that Mi Yu can achieve good performance in the Classic Triple Crown.”

Hearing this, Luduo was not surprised, but nodded and said:
"Yeah, I think so too."

"Although I don't have as detailed and professional analysis as you, Kitahara, from my experience, although Mi Yu is very small, I feel that he can run very far."

Mi Yu is indeed not tall. Even from a simple visual estimate, when she is standing behind Miura Bourbon, she looks about the same height as Tamamo Juji and Inari Ichi.

In fact, Mi Yu is only 1 meters tall, not much taller than the two short guys in the Yongshi team.

However, Luduo's intuition is consistent with Kitahara's analysis. The small Mi Yu is fully capable of participating in long-distance competitions.

Unlike short-distance events, short-distance events have very high requirements for explosive power. Accordingly, body shapes like the one Kitahara just analyzed are more suitable for exerting force.

Long-distance running does not have such strict requirements on body shape. This type of event places more emphasis on "internal" qualities such as muscle proportion, body fat percentage, bone strength, heart rate and oxygen uptake.

If you want to compete in long-distance races that require a lot of endurance, you'll want a better ratio of slow-twitch and intermediate-twitch fibers.

Although the proportions can be changed through exercise, a body that is born in this condition is obviously more suitable.

From the information in hand, we can see that Mi Yu’s performance in tests that require flexibility, such as sit-up and high reach, are very good.

Flexibility is a reflection of the larger proportion of slow-twitch muscle fibers and intermediate muscle fibers.

The body fat percentage is also easy to judge. Mi Yu is not only small in stature, but also looks even thinner than Tamamo Juji and Inari Ichi.

With a simple estimate of the necessary muscle proportion and volume, one can roughly guess that this timid horse racing girl probably does not have much fat on her body.

However, it is impossible to judge the heart rate and oxygen uptake at the moment.

Generally speaking, if you want better endurance, you need to have a lower "resting heart rate", which is the number of times your heart beats per minute when you are resting.

This is different from the situation with Oguruma.

Ogurume has a heart rate different from other horse girls. The average heart rate of other horse girls is 30 to 40, but Ogurume's is only 20 to 24.

This isn't just the case when she's resting, she's also like this when she's competing.

Even in the most intense stage of the race, such as the sprint to the finish line, her maximum heart rate was only 24.

This situation allows her to exert force without restraint in various situations, without having to worry about her blood vessels and heart not being able to bear it.

For example, assuming that all Uma Musume are sports cars, then other sports cars need their engines to rotate 40 times a minute to meet high-speed requirements, but Oguruma only needs 20 times, or at most 24 times.

For ordinary "sports cars", let alone "engine work" that exceeds the upper limit, even if the "work" is only at the level of 40, it will put a great load on the body.

In this case, the upper limit of the "work done" of the Ogurashi is only 24, so there is no possibility of pressure in other parts of the body.

Similar heart and vascular conditions are not unique to Oguruma.

Inside the team, besides her, Tamamo Cross is also in this situation.

Outside the team, there is Hao Opera, who often trains with the Yongshi team in the academy, and Luduo Symbol, who is now walking next to Kitahara. They also have such cardiovascular characteristics.

In comparison, if the assumption is that Mi Yu is very good at long distance running, then she will at least have a very low heart rate in the "resting" state.

This "resting heart rate" will shift with exercise, and you can also achieve a much more relaxed "cruising" state during competition.

This is particularly useful in long-distance events that require endurance, as she can maintain higher speeds for longer.

Perhaps her heart rate will rise significantly during the race, but the cruising part often takes up more than half of the race distance. Unless there is a horse girl who mindlessly flees during the race, the advantage of a low "resting heart rate" is obvious.

The oxygen uptake is similar to the resting heart rate, but it is more complicated to test. It requires some specific training to determine the professional indicator "VO2 Max".

Kitahara can roughly judge the above situations and use them to confirm Mi Yu's adaptability in long-distance competitions.

But there was one thing that not only did he not know for sure, he was also vaguely worried.

Bone strength.

He suspected that there might be some problems with Mi Yu's bone strength.

In order to support the body, bones generally have a fixed structure.

During running, bones are reorganized to better cope with the stress of intense exercise.

The process of internal reorganization is actually more challenging than external stressors, and it is the process most prone to accidents without adequate bone strength.

Especially the spine, pelvis, and legs, which are important weight-bearing parts.

Kitahara is now unable to determine whether the tragedy of Mi Yu's comminuted fracture in another world was caused by his congenital constitution or the harsh special training he had acquired.

But he had decided now that no matter what the problem was, he would do his best to prevent tragedy from happening in this world.

After he mentioned the rice bath symbol to Luduo, he soon fell silent, because he was thinking about how to complete this decision.

Luduo symbolizes that she doesn't know what Beiyuan is thinking. After all, she has no way of knowing what happened in the parallel world.

However, she felt that the trainer next to her might have an occupational disease and was probably thinking about how to train the racehorse girls.

"It looks like you've completely gotten into the trainer's mode, but I think it's better for you to relax now."

As she spoke, she reached out and patted Kitahara's shoulder as he was thinking, and pointed to the Winning Live entrance that was already visible in front of them.

"The next step is celebration."

"And not just today, in the next few days, Oguruma and the others also need to rest."

"You will probably have to hold some kind of welcoming ceremony for the new companions."

"As for how to arrange the training after this, we can talk about it later..."

"There's no need to wait until later. These routine arrangements are still very simple."

Beiyuan was indeed thinking about how to arrange the training of Miura Bourbon and Miyu. When Luduo mentioned it, he said without thinking:
"We must do some tests first to confirm their conditions, so that we can arrange more detailed training."

"Besides, Yongshi happens to have some new development ideas now."

"It's not easy to judge through training tests. Considering there is a game at noon today, maybe it would be better to have some intra-team competitions."

At this moment, Kitahara didn't know that due to the change in methods at the trainer level, the two horse girls, Super Kobay and Mejiro Aldan, took this opportunity to make their own attempts.

Even at this moment in the lounge, the frankness of the two of them caused changes in the thoughts of Oguruma, Tamamo Cross and Inari Ichi.

But as a trainer, he keenly felt that the previous training methods could indeed bring excellent competition results.

But if you want to go further, you can no longer just sit back and reap the rewards. It’s time to make some attempts.

What's more, in the rain test at noon and the subsequent competition performance, he also felt that the running method changed on the spot today made his racehorses show a different kind of brilliance than in the past.

We should try more new possibilities through team competitions.

"Oh? Will the Eternal Team hold some matches among themselves? Something more formal than a training match?"

Hearing about the competition, Luduo suddenly became interested and couldn't help but suggest, "That's a good idea. Besides, your team now has enough horse girls to participate in such competitions."

"Having more competitions like this may help us better tap into their potential."

"We need to think carefully about the specific arrangements. After all, Oguruma and the others are among the best in the league."

"If you want to train like this with them, children like the East Sea Emperor seem to need to consider a suitable schedule."

"Of course we can do it separately. It depends on how you, the chief trainer, arrange it... Wait, Kitahara, why are you looking at me like that?"

Suddenly he realized that Kitahara was looking at him with a similar strange expression, just like he had just done. Luduo subconsciously imitated the other person's previous reaction.

"Is there something on my face?"

She rubbed her face and asked.

"No...and I'm not looking at you."

After a simple correction, Kitahara did the same as before, first scanning the large and small horse girls in front of him, and finally turning his eyes to Luduo.

"Look, there are five horse girls officially active in our team, right?"

Luduo didn't understand what Kitahara meant at first, but it was true that Oguruma, Super Kobay, Mejiro Aldan, Tamamo Cross and Inari Ichi were the five active horse girls of the Eternal Team.

"……Yes what's the matter?"

She was a little confused, but nodded in response.

"As for Roman Oguri, I confirmed her training schedule a long time ago."

Kitahara explained: "That is to say, among the kids who are currently practicing with the team, there are also 5 who are still trying to figure out their form."

"The Emperor of the East Sea, Mejiro McQueen, Narita Shirahito, and the Miura Bourbon and Miyu who came here today."

"There are also five people, right?"

At this moment, I felt a little more understood about the symbolism of Luduo.

"Do you want to form a competition or a team competition?"

She analyzed it with great interest, "That's a good idea."

“Although this type of competition is relatively rare and is not available in the URA series, if we refer to other types of competitions, we can consider a scoring system.”

"This way, the difference in strength between the two groups of horse girls won't matter. They can cooperate with each other."

"Because the competition is more complicated, it can stimulate their potential in more aspects."

"You think so, right, Kitahara?"

After all, she is a horse racing girl. Even though she has retired and left the racing field for a long time, Luduo is still full of interest in the competition, not to mention such a unique event as the one now.

At the end, when she looked at Beiyuan, her eyes could be described as shining.

"Almost, but not exactly..."

Once again, Kitahara's gaze wandered from the large and small horse girls in front of him, and returned to the symbol of Ludo for the third time, looking it up and down.

"Did you notice, Ludo?"

"You, Maruzenski, Representative Chiaki, Mejiro Takamine, and Ace Katsuragi."

“There are five of you too.”

"So, I plan to do a relay race after doing all kinds of tests."

"Are you interested in being one of the batons?"

Happy New Year to everyone!
