Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 66: Psychological Training to Take Advantage of Every Occasion

Compared to the people who came to Tokyo, there were more people returning to Kasamatsu including Super Bay and Miyamura Kyoko.

Xiao Haiwan has already been confirmed as Kitahara's "reserve horse girl", so it is only natural for them to return to Kasamatsu together.

Kyoko Miyamura is the current attending physician of Xiaohaiwan. She will follow Kitahara for a long time to complete the work of data collection and practical experience accumulation for her graduate project, so naturally she will follow him.

After the two arrived in Kasamatsu, Kitahara arranged their accommodation. He was now the best trainer in the academy and had access to far more resources than before, so he easily found a comfortable double dormitory.

"Although Xiaowan's injury has stabilized in Tokyo, he still needs to rest for a while."

Standing at the door of the dormitory, but not going in, Kitahara instructed: "It will be more convenient for you two to live together. Jingzi can often give Xiaowan massages, and Xiaowan can directly tell Xiaomei if she feels uncomfortable."

"Ogurumao and Guanghui's dormitory is the fourth to last in this corridor. If you want to go play with them, just go along this side." He turned sideways and pointed at the corridor.

"I live in the trainers' dormitory across the street, in the first room on the first floor. It's easy to find. If you have any problems, you can come to me directly or call me." He pointed outside the dormitory window again.

"Okay, I understand. I will try my best not to trouble Mr. Kitahara! I can take care of myself... no problem!" Kyoko Miyamura raised her hand to assure.

If you hadn't paused, I might have believed it. I now realize that you may have a good talent in medicine, but in other aspects, such as daily life...

Considering that Miyamura Kyoko is still studying for a doctorate and might not be very mature in daily life and interpersonal communication, Kitahara curled the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.

With Xiao Haiwan, a horse girl who likes to take care of people, the two of you complement each other perfectly.

Feeling that the arrangement was fine, Kitahara was about to say goodbye when Xiao Haiwan suddenly extended his hand.

"Um...Mr. Kitahara, when can I start practicing?"

She said this a little hesitantly, and then added hastily, "I don't want to go running right now, I want to, I want to..."

Xiao Haiwan hesitated to speak, as if she couldn't find a suitable description. Beiyuan smiled and said for her:
"You want a clear deadline so you can have peace of mind, right?"

Xiao Haiwan was stunned for a moment, then delighted.

"Yeah! That's right!"

She nodded vigorously, and said expectantly, "Then, Mr. Kitahara..."

"I know how long it will take for you to fully recover, and Mei knows it too, but we're not going to tell you."

Kitahara pointed at Miyamura Kyoko and his expression became more formal. "You should have asked Kyoko as well, right? She must not have told you, so you wanted to ask me, right?"

"……Um."

He glanced at Miyamura Kyoko cautiously, bit his lower lip, and nodded slightly.

"But... why? You clearly knew the result, but you didn't tell me..." She became confused.

With Kyoko Miyamura's medical skills, it is easy to estimate how long it will take for Xiaowan to recover. With the approval of Doctor Gu Jiu, this number can be almost certain.

After 7 days, or a week, Little Bay will be able to conduct training normally.

This number cannot be told to Xiao Haiwan, Beiyuan has his own plans.

"Formal training has actually already begun. You've spent less time with me, so you'll understand my style in the future."

Kitahara explained: "For regular training, I will use precise data to plan, and will also make timely adjustments based on your situation. This is the same as many trainers, there is nothing much to say."

"Besides that, I value your character training."

"Character?" Xiao Haiwan was stunned.

"Your concealment of your injury before was a sign of your lack of character," Kitahara pointed out Xiaowan's problem mercilessly, "If it was Oguruma, she would never do such a thing."

"Because she knows that as a horse girl, what she has to do is to do her best to win, regardless of whether to cause trouble to others or not. She can only worry about it after the trouble is over and the game is won." "She didn't have this mentality from the beginning. I have been training her in this aspect since her debut."

"For her debut match, I deliberately arranged for her not to get the front position, even if she could do it. Do you know why I arranged it this way?"

The sudden question made Xiaowan a little overwhelmed, but she quickly realized that as Kitahara said, the training had already begun.

...Is this Mr. Kitahara's style? ...It feels very strange...

After hesitating for a moment, she took a deep breath and made herself serious.

"Please give me some advice, Mr. Kitahara."

Very good, it seems that no matter what personality a horse girl has, her obsession with running is the same.

"Because Oguruma's desire to win is extremely strong, stronger than most horse girls."

As she spoke, Kitahara made a trembling motion, "You will find out later that every time she competes, she can't control her fighting spirit and instinctively trembles like this."

"Then we need to let her turn her fighting spirit into a normal state of mind. This is the mental training she has to face."

"So, from the moment she debuted, she had to get used to chasing and being chased, and to make sure her strong fighting spirit did not affect her brain's clear judgment of the game. This is something she had to master."

After a moment of silence, a look of realization appeared in Xiaowan's eyes.

"So, Mr. Kitahara wants me to learn... patience."

Yes, as I expected, she is gifted. Other horse girls might not be able to react as quickly as Xiao Haiwan.

"Yes, be patient."

Beiyuan nodded, "The psychological impact of long-term illness on you may not be apparent to you."

Kitahara is a graduate student of business, has taken psychology as an elective course, and has ample management experience. He has always believed that good psychological preparation is a necessary condition for the success of any person or any team.

"You look forward to the results more than other horse girls, whether it's training or competition, but the results of this kind of thing can't be seen overnight."

“The training is long, sometimes so long that you can’t see the end.”

“The game may seem short, but once you get too anxious because you are looking forward to the result, your performance will definitely be abnormal.”

What's more, what you are best at is long-distance racing.

He added silently in his mind, and looking at Super Little Bay's realized expression, Kitahara smiled with relief.

"So, I won't tell you when you'll recover, so you can experience the feeling of waiting, and then..."

"Look forward to emerging as a butterfly, Little Bay. You can do it."

After taking the opportunity to give some psychological guidance to his candidate horse girl, Kitahara rushed to the training ground without stopping.

Over there, Little Chestnut was waiting for his guidance.

Instruct the "Shizou Special Cup" held at Kasamatsu Stadium on December 12.

Mud, clockwise, 1600 meters.

Mile race.

Suddenly I became curious. Both Little Chestnut and Big Tree Express are mileage kings. If they were to compete, who would win?
