Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 304: Super Status
Kitahara, Komiyama and others all attach great importance to the competitive spirit between Tamamono Cross and Inari Ichi.

He did not hide it from the two horse girls and explained it specifically.

During pre-match training, many special training sessions are staggered.

But this can only be a slight adjustment, it cannot be completely eliminated, nor should it be completely eliminated.

From the fact that Tamamo Cross and Oguruma are training on their own, it can be seen that she still wants to beat Inari Ichi, or to win the game.

If you want to win, you must be competitive.

So, although there are some concerns, we have already prepared for it in terms of ideas and training arrangements, and the Emperor's autumn appreciation is about to begin, so there is no point in worrying anymore.

So I skipped the worry part and continued to interact with the host for a while, and then came to the appearance session at the beginning of the competition.

The interview room also became the commentary room.

"Dear audience! Today's finale of the Tokyo Arena, the 10th match, G1 Emperor's Autumn Viewing, is about to begin!"

"Today is a cloudless day with crisp autumn weather, and the stadium is in good condition."

"18 runners will compete on a 2000-meter grass track, and 15 fans will flock to the event to witness this victory that may go down in history!"

"Next, please welcome the most popular player in this match! The strongest white lightning that thunders through the stadium! Group 6, No. 9, Tamamo Cross!!"

"Second consecutive G1 win! Haven't lost since October last year, 10 consecutive wins, morale is high!!"

"The atmosphere at the scene has become heated!!"

I have to admit that compared with real professional commentators, Kitahara himself, who had previously guest-starred as the commentator for the Rudo Symbol and Seattle Spin, is still far inferior.

It was just an opening statement, but through the director's screen, it was clear that the atmosphere on the scene had been driven up by the commentator.

Unable to help himself, Kitahara clapped his hands vigorously a few times, just like the audience. Beside him, Maruzenski and Seattle Spin also applauded and cheered a few times.

While on the director's screen, the small figure of Tamamo Cross was throwing out his coat, and the commentator suddenly changed his tone.

"Coincidentally, today we have invited the legendary American athlete, Seattle Slalom."

The commentator looked at Seattle and said, "May I ask President Seattle what you think of the horse girl Tamamo Cross?"

This is also in the rehearsal process.

Everyone who follows Uma Musume, both inside and outside the industry, knows that Kitahara is the chairman of the Eisei Club and Maruzenski is now also a member of the club.

The two of them must be very familiar with Tamamo Cross, who belongs to the same club. The more so, the more awkward it is for them to make an evaluation.

So in order to avoid suspicion, this task was given to Seattle Roundhouse.

Not only the commentator and the host, but also Kitahara and Maruzen paid attention to the opinion of such a horse racing girl.

"She's a very good horse girl. If I have the chance, I'd like to race with her."

He gave a very high evaluation without hesitation. Although the Seattle Spin was smiling, there was a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

It seems that if she could run now, she wouldn't mind being the 19th contestant in the Emperor's Autumn Appreciation.

"I've watched Tamamo Cross's previous matches, and she has excellent chasing abilities."

"As I said just now, if I were to compete with her in the same competition, assuming that it was also the first year of the Guma Year, perhaps I should also be aware of the possibility of being caught up by her."

"For example, in her previous Takarazuka Kinen race, she completed a very good chase at the final corner and surpassed all her opponents in one go."

“And maintained the lead until the end.”

"Combined with her ability to chase from behind, she is likely to adopt a similar running strategy in this game."

Kitahara and Maruzenski nodded repeatedly after hearing this analysis.

It’s not that they agree with all of Seattle Slalom’s judgments, but they recognize the horse racing girl’s keen observation and analytical skills.

As for judgment, some of it is just guesswork.

For example, in terms of the choice of running tactics, the Tamamo Cross now has more options and is not limited to chasing from behind.

Moreover, for this kind of top-level horse girl, adaptability is only one aspect. The actual running method will not be so rigid and will be adjusted according to the battle situation.

Last year, even during the Hanshin Grand Prix in the first half of the year, before going to Europe, Tamamo Cross did not necessarily have this level of processing ability.

But after more competitions and training, and especially after seeing the world overseas, this horse girl's abilities have improved.

Similarly, the same is true for Inariichi.

And following the order of appearance, Inari happens to be the next to appear.

After the introduction, the commentator still asked about the Seattle Spin.

"Inari Ichi is no less powerful than Tamamo Cross. In terms of explosive power, I think Inari Ichi is even better."

Seattle revolved in a deep voice: "This is also the reason why she is also good at chasing after her."

"From her past performance, it seems that her temperament is not very good. In the early stages of the race, when she relied on her pursuit ability to overtake or change lanes, her handling was very rough."

“You could even say it’s rough.”

"But judging from recent matches and some training, she is handling it better and better."

“So, how should I put it? I’m really looking forward to the showdown between the most popular and the second most popular.”

Among the 18 contestants who participated in the Emperor's Autumn Viewing Ceremony, Inari Ichi's popularity is indeed second only to Tamamo Cross.

The anticipation for the Seattle Slalom is exactly what most people who are paying attention to this event are looking forward to.

Hearing this famous horse racing girl from overseas say this, even if you can't hear the sound, you can imagine the excitement of the audience just by looking at their reactions on the broadcast screen.

Afterwards, the commentator introduced the remaining 16 players one by one, and the Seattle Slalom also gave comments one by one.

Judging from the American horse racing girl's eloquent talk, she has done her homework for this race.

She is quite clear about the strengths and weaknesses of each horse girl.

The leading and front-leading abilities of the two sisters, Sakura Star King and Sakura Chiyo King.

The explosive power of the Golden City.

Experience and final processing of the Sirius symbol.

King of the track and the premier escape.

Nothing is left out.

Or judging from this level of detail, she not only knows a lot about the contestants in the Emperor's Autumn Viewing Parade, but also knows a lot about all the active horse racing girls in Japan.

Everyone in the studio was a little surprised by this level of understanding, even Kitahara and Maruzenski who had expected it.

On the field, after their appearance and warm-up, the horse racing ladies who followed the staff towards the gate were even more surprised.

"Hey, Inari, why do we feel that the American president is like a spy, or he just likes to stalk and spy."

Walking side by side with Inari, looking towards the director's room at the top of the auditorium, Tamamo Cross said in surprise: "Don't you think so? She knows us too well."

"You know us so well, could it be that..."

"Is she really going to come down to compete in a while? Hahaha."

This last sentence is obviously a joke.

Inari didn't smile, but looked helpless.

"Hey, hey, hey, Xiaoyu, you really don't seem to be under any pressure at all."

He also glanced in the direction of the director's room, and then looked around.

The dozen or so horse racing girls around had all glanced over here vaguely before.

Noticing Inari's gaze, they all looked away, pretending to be thinking or chatting with the horse girl beside them.

"I admire your ability to crack jokes as if nothing has happened despite all the attention."

"Hey, you admire me, don't you?"

Tamamo Cross smiled even more brightly, "We are in great shape for this match, how could we be nervous just because someone looked at us?"

"So, you are very confident of winning?"

Although he was concerned about the looks of other horse girls, Inari Ichi didn't seem to be under any pressure and smiled now. "I know you are secretly preparing something. Hey, don't blame Xiaoli. I heard her say it by chance."

"But I have some preparations."

"Be careful later. It would be a pity if I beat you by accident."

"What a pity?"

Tamamo Cross was puzzled, "What's such a pity?"

She didn't care that Inari knew what she did, because she had indeed thought of many ways and tried some training during the Emperor's autumn viewing event.

And since we are all in the same club, this kind of thing cannot be kept secret.

But unfortunately, she had no idea what to do.

"You won the Emperor's Spring Viewing Award this year, you didn't forget it, did you?"

Inari suddenly opened his mouth like a fox, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

"If we win the Emperor's Autumn Festival again, it will be an unprecedented victory in the Emperor's Autumn Festival."

"This kind of achievement is something that even President Luduo has never achieved. It is unprecedented. Wouldn't it be a pity to miss it?"

Tamamo Cross was stunned for a long time.

“…So that’s what you mean.”

She also grinned, revealing her sharp fangs. "If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed it."

"But since you said so."

"So……"

"The challenge of stopping us from achieving this unprecedented feat is now up to you."

"Inari."

Perhaps, what these two horse girls who had clashed several times said at this moment was the declaration that least resembled a duel declaration in the history of the competition.

After such a declaration, all the horse girls, including the two of them, entered the gate one by one.

"Finally! All contestants enter the gate!"

"2000 meters of grassland, G1, the emperor enjoys autumn..."

"Start!"

The commentator's high-pitched voice sounded simultaneously with the audience's sudden cheers.

But in an instant, the loud cheers and cheers turned into screams.

"……ah--?!"

"The top runner made a false start!"

"It was clearly declared that we would lead the race, but in the end we made a false start!"

"She just came out of the gate now! The other runners have already rushed out!"

Whether it was the audience at the scene or the audience watching through the director's screen or the broadcast, they all cried out in surprise at the missed start.

But in a flash, they no longer focused on the end, but on the front.

The same is true for the commentary, but what has not changed is the somewhat panicked screams.

"It's a mess! The horse racing ladies in the front can be described as a mess!"

“Like the top runner, she made a lead declaration before the race, and the track champion did not miss a beat, she really rushed to the front in one go.”

"This horse girl is very good at escaping. In the past, she could pull away by 3, 4, 5, or even 6 lengths in one go."

"but!"

"She didn't distance herself at all this time!"

"Sakura Star King and Sakura Chiyo King also chose the lead release tactic and followed closely behind the leader!"

"Also joining this competition is Akitsu-kun, a horse girl who is also good at leading the pack!"

"Free Lanny and Golden City also made the same choice."

"There are already six horse girls competing for the lead in the opening round."

“There’s a 7th one!”

"The 7th place is actually Tamamo Cross!"

"My God!"

"Is this match going to turn into a showdown between runaway horses?!"

"It's so rare that so many horse girls chose to lead at once. This situation can only be described as a mess!"

"We're almost approaching the curve. Tianqiu's first straight line is very short, only about 130 meters!"

"Already approaching the curve...exiting the curve!"

"So the result of the lead match is..."

“The first one is the track king!”

“Although we didn’t open up a big gap like in the previous game, it was not easy to win in such a fierce duel.”

"The second one is Tamamo Cross!"

"It was a superb overtaking. With an extraordinary acceleration in a split second, Tamamo Cross beat the other leading horse girls in the curve and came into second place!"

"She followed the track king so closely that she almost stuck to her back!"

"It seems that Tamamo Cross wants to take advantage of the pace of the track king and the slipstream behind him."

"This must be the tactic she and her trainer decided on. It's quite an excellent one."

"Well, please invite a guest to briefly comment on this situation."

Most of the opening course of the Emperor's Autumn Viewing Race is an extra 130-meter track, and only after finishing it will you enter the circular rectangular track.

Entering the circular rectangular track, next comes one of the longest straight lines on the grass track.

This type of track generally doesn't have too many changes, which is perfect for inserting brief comments.

The commentator chosen this time was Maruzenski, and when Maruzenski spoke quickly, he was far away in a laboratory at Tresen College.

"This is a very good tactic, and his intuition is very sharp."

Wearing a loose large pajamas, Luduo, who still looked like a child, held a cup of coffee, took a sip, and sighed.

"18 contestants, this number is almost comparable to the number of contestants that Miss Junchuan participated in that year."

"With this scale, once we are surrounded, there will be too many variables to worry about."

“But I’m not good at leading the release, so the rhythm is easily messed up.”

"Then, choose a leading opponent for yourself in advance, use the opponent's rhythm and tailwind to maintain your position and save energy."

"The choice of Tamamo Cross is quite excellent."

"Oh? So, the president is optimistic that Tamamo-senpai can win? ...By the way, would you like some tea?"

After hearing what little Luduo said, Alice, who was also in the laboratory, came over curiously and handed over a cup of black tea.

"Absolutely! No! Can! Can!"

Refusing in a shrill voice like a little kid, little Rudo jumped to the other side and looked warily at the smiling Elissako.

"I became like this inexplicably after drinking the black tea you gave me. There's no way I'm going to drink anything you give me."

"By the way, teahouse, could you please give me some more coffee?"

He moved away from Alice, and as if asking for help or comfort, he handed the coffee cup to the Manchester City tea table next to him.
