The Golden Master didn't understand Chi Tian's command, yet the force in his legs showed no sign of slowing down. Meanwhile, Chi Tian continued to try to make the Golden Master slow down, even shouting directly:

"Orphie, now is not the time to sprint, slow down!"

"Are you kidding me? I'm going to beat her! Ikezom, don't mess with me!"

The Gold Master was also unusually uncooperative, constantly shaking her head in an attempt to stop Chi Tian from interfering with her—this was the first time she had shown resistance to Chi Tian's judgment.

“Maruzen-senpai… something seems off on the other side.”

At this moment, as Maruzensky's "balance", Sakura Chiyo, an excellent racehorse girl who was active at the same time as Oguri Hat, did not have the talent to become a jockey. However, Maruzensky basically did not expect Chiyo to be able to command her. He just felt that the girl was very honest and got along well with her, so he found her to be his "balance".

However, Chiyo was very dedicated and cherished the experience of riding on her senior's back. Therefore, even though she was very unprofessional and moved around wildly on Maruzensky's shoulders, she still diligently relayed the battle situation behind the scenes to her senior.

"They seem to be arguing, Maruzen-senpai. Perhaps we can take this opportunity to create some distance between them!"

"You're right, Chiyo-oh. Then I'll put in a little more effort~"

Maruzensky smiled slightly, but her aura did not increase. Instead, a swift and fierce aura, like a gale, enveloped Maruzensky's entire body.

At this moment, both the Golden Master, who was still arguing with Ikezoe, and the group of horse racing girls in the stands, all perked up and their expressions became much more serious.

"...That Maru Zen guy is just playing around with the new generation of racehorse girls, he wouldn't actually activate his own [domain], would he?"

Qi Cao was also somewhat surprised by Maru Shanski's seriousness this time. After all, everyone knew that Maru Shanski was just making excuses to give away two sets of the final outfit. Even Qi Cao and Ru Duo Symbol thought that Maru Shanski just wanted to give the Golden Master some pointers. He would still give the final outfit when the time came, but he wouldn't make things too difficult for the Golden Master.

But this time, the group sensed something was off. Maru Zenki didn't seem to be just playing around... It seemed like she was serious?

"What is this girl thinking? Using [Domain] on a racehorse girl of the Grandmaster level? Is she trying to beat the Gold Grandmaster to a pulp?"

"I don't know... but Maruzen has always been very sensible, so we can only trust her now."

Lu Duo, standing to the side, was also unaware of what Maruzensky was doing. However, not far away, Dong Shang Biange silently peeked out, his eyes shining as he watched this scene.

"It really is magic! Grandmother wasn't lying to me after all! These powerful racehorse girls can even use magic!"

"I must learn it! But Maruzen-senpai made me join that guy named Ikezoe's team... That guy called the Golden Master doesn't seem as strong as he looks."

Dong Shang is now in a dilemma. She is looking at the widening gap between the Golden Master and Maru Zenkichi and is very puzzled as to why Maru Zenkichi wanted her to join Ikezoe's team. She is clearly the stronger racehorse girl.

Although Maru Zenki had already explained, Tosho Reform still didn't want to join Ikezoe's team, especially since there were people he disliked in it.

"If Maruzen-senpai wins this time, I'll try again. This time, I'll definitely ask Maruzen-senpai to be my teacher."

"If Ikezoe and the Golden Master win... Ugh... then I'll listen to Maruzen-senpai and start step by step."

Thinking this way, Dong Shang was very satisfied with her choice and even nodded to herself. After all, in her opinion, the current situation was very clear: Maru Zenski and Golden Master were at least four horse lengths apart, and this gap was widening. The outcome of this race had already been decided.

She hadn't prepared properly last time, but this time, she was well-prepared with a "becoming an apprentice" gift. Dongshang Biange was very confident that this time, she would definitely succeed in becoming an apprentice!

But just as Dongshang was brimming with confidence about its transformation, suddenly, the competition seemed to have taken a turn for the better.

"Huh? Maruzensky... slowed down?"

A soft murmur from commentator Wada suddenly echoed throughout the entire stadium, and Dongshang Bianhe looked up in utter disbelief, only to discover that Maruzensky had indeed slowed down.

"No way?!" Dong Shang Biange exclaimed subconsciously. At the same time, Lu Duo, Qi Cao, and the others subconsciously stood up from their seats, worried that Maru Shanqi might have some health problems because he hadn't run for a long time.

However, in reality, Maruzensky was only gradually slowing down, until he reached a point where he was roughly on par with the Golden Master, before smiling and softly saying to the Golden Master, whose eyes were beginning to bloodshot:

"Winning like this is too boring. Shall we start over?"

"!!!"

At that moment, the mockery and slight disdain on Maruzensky's face pierced the eyes of the Gold Master. Almost instantly, the Gold Master clenched his fists and became completely excited.

This old woman—how dare she humiliate her like that?!

Chapter 238: The Strongest Combination Reveals Its Spearhead

For a racehorse girl, the greatest insult is when her opponent doesn't even consider her a rival. This is a thought that many racehorses with vastly different strengths might have. They were once teammates at the starting line, but then someone underwent a qualitative change, causing the gap between them to widen and eventually drift apart. This is when the weaker party takes the initiative to bring it up.

"I'm sorry, I may no longer be worthy to be your opponent. The gap between us is too great. From now on, strive for higher goals. I wish you all the best." — This is generally the kind of line.

This kind of topic is rarely brought up by assertive racehorse girls, because if an assertive racehorse girl brings it up, it will have a somewhat provocative and contemptuous feel to it. And since everyone is in the same school and sees each other all the time, it would be a bit awkward to talk about this kind of thing.

Moreover, Japanese society does not support this approach, otherwise it could easily lead to social death.

But now, in front of the Golden Master, Namaru Zenki first overtook her by several horse lengths, and just when she thought she had no way to win, she suddenly slowed down, using this method to provoke her.

This is indeed a huge insult to a female horse racer. They are not afraid of losing; if they lose this time, they will have a chance to win next time. They are not afraid of initial setbacks either, after all, the race is not over yet, and no one can say what the final result will be.

However, underestimating your opponent and making no attempt to hide it is a humiliating provocation for a large number of female horse racers.

More importantly, this provocation seemed strangely familiar to the Golden Master, as if she had seen it somewhere before, which only fueled her anger.

"Well? My dear junior, do you now realize that the gap between our strengths is simply not in the same league?"

"Hmph, it seems your group isn't that strong after all. Even if I start over, I'm still confident I can beat you."

Maru Zenki said to the Golden Master with a deliberately provocative smile. She could feel that the Golden Master had reached a critical point, and if he could break through this level, his strength would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.

The current Golden Master... while she is strong enough among her peers, is not enough for someone aiming for the Classic Triple Crown and to claim the title of the next Triple Crown Racehorse Girl.

Maru Zenki knew that the way Golden Master's talent was broken through was a little different. Other racehorse girls could unleash their full potential when they were in "perfect mode", but Golden Master was different. If she wanted to unleash her potential, she had to be in "absolute mode".

The angrier she is, the more she can unleash her potential and abilities. For this racehorse girl, provocation, setbacks, and pressure are the challenges on the track that can stimulate her abilities.

"Wow... if it's just provocation, this is really infuriating."

At this moment, the black-haired woman next to Zhongshan Qingnian said with slight surprise, "Even I wouldn't dare to provoke other racehorse girls like this. This is an insult."

"Don't worry, that guy, if you provoke her, she might be afraid of you, but if you go too far, she'll turn on you like a madwoman." Nakayama Keiki was initially surprised by Maruzensky's actions, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "No one in our family dares to bully the Master too much."

"That sounds really interesting, the Golden Family." The black-haired woman chuckled softly, and the next moment, she seemed to sense something, and her gaze quickly turned to the arena.

"Take back what you just said, you old woman."

However, just when Maruzensky thought his provocation would allow the Golden Master to break through his limits, an unexpected scene unfolded. The Golden Master's eyes, which seemed to be blazing with murderous rage, suddenly contracted slightly, and he spoke to Maruzensky in an extremely calm tone:

"You can look down on me because I can't outrun you right now; you can provoke me because I can't beat you either."

“But I will not allow you to insult Chi Tian, ​​to insult my partner.”

The Golden Master's voice was so calm it was almost frightening. However, all you could see was her eyes fixed on the track ahead, as if there was no Maruzensky in her eyes, only the finish line ahead.

The words of the Gold Master naturally reached Chi Tian's ears. It was the first time Chi Tian had heard the Gold Master express his thoughts in this way, and for a moment, he even forgot to give the Gold Master any guidance.

“I know my own limitations very well. If there are still racehorses that I can’t beat, then it’s definitely my problem, not Ikezoe’s problem.”

“Ikezoe has always done his best—it’s just that I haven’t. I haven’t tried as hard as he has.”

At this point, the Golden Master gritted her teeth slightly. At this moment, she and Maru Zenski had just crossed the 1000-meter distance. The two women crossed almost parallel to each other, but no one could announce their current results.

But one person still noticed this. The black-haired woman quickly focused her gaze on the timer and said with slight surprise:

"57.9 seconds? Wow, that's fast."

"That's too fast... 2000 meters isn't a very long distance, but for a horse-riding tactic... is their stamina a bottomless pit?"

No, even for Maruzensky, a mid-range escape tactic of 2000 meters would be a considerable challenge. If Rudolf could hear the two women's conversation now, he would definitely say the same thing.

Especially now that Maruzenski hasn't stepped onto the track for a long time, her performance has declined in all aspects since retiring, especially in terms of physical fitness. A distance of 2000 meters is quite difficult for a racehorse girl who is good at escaping tactics.

But compared to that... what's even more terrifying is still the Golden Master. Is this guy's stamina... truly a bottomless pit?!

"You wanted to compete with me?! Come on! I'll compete with you to the very end!" The Golden Master also fixed his gaze ahead, saying each word clearly:

"Let me show you the full power of the Gold Master—Ikezoe!!"

Suddenly, a shout from the Golden Master brought Ikezoe, who was on the Golden Master's back, back to his senses. He saw the "Golden Tyrant" completely unleash his true self, gritting his teeth and saying.

"Although I hate to admit it, all I can do now is run forward with all my might! I want you to continue to be my brain! To continue to give it your all! And to continue to—win with me!"

"Even I've given it my all, Ikezoe! You better get your act together!"

Did the Golden Master not sense Chi Tian's thoughts? Of course she did. From the very beginning of the match, she had already sensed that Chi Tian was more relaxed than usual.

Horses can sense the emotions of their riders. If the rider panics first, the horse will usually follow suit. This might not be verifiable for humanoid racehorse girls, but the Golden Master can sense Ikezoe's emotions.

But the Golden Master didn't feel that Chi Tian had "betrayed" her. She hadn't thought of that. She just felt that since her opponent was, after all, Chi Tian's teacher, it was normal for him to be powerless.

But now, the Golden Master will not allow Chi Tian to continue to be powerless. She wants to tell him that they are the team, and no matter who the opponent is, victory can only be achieved by them.

The Golden Master never believed that Chi Tian would let her down. Just as she said, she completely trusted Chi Tian's judgment. All she needed to do was run at full speed!

The roar of the Gold Master at that moment made Chi Tian suddenly realize something.

What...what am I doing? Am I making the Gold Master lose? Just so she can grow stronger?

No, that's not what he should be doing.

Orpheus is the strongest! And the Golden Master he rides is the strongest!

"That's right, we'll win! Orpheus! We'll win!"

"Now is the time to go all out—run, Orpheus!"

Chi Tian excitedly flicked the reins, and upon feeling the movement, the Golden Master seemed to receive an instruction, his muscles tensing up instantly.

In that instant, Maruzensky also suddenly sensed that the Golden Master's aura had changed. Just before she unleashed her final strike, her momentum shifted.

"boom!"

The Golden Master charged forward at lightning speed! At that moment, the intense golden aura emanating from the Golden Master surprised everyone.

“No, it’s not aura.” On the stage, Rudol’s pupils narrowed slightly at this moment, and he said in a cold voice, “It’s [Domain], the [Domain] of the Golden Master.”

"Have you touched the threshold of the [Domain]? Although you can only touch it at the very end, it's enough."

"Maruzen-senpai, you really succeeded... You've awakened a racehorse girl's true competitive spirit."

On the other side, the commentators and live streamers, Haogeju and Wada, were clearly not professional commentators. At this point, they were completely absorbed in the match and no longer cared about their microphones, directly talking to each other:

"What a wonderful opera, can you feel it?"

"Yes, it feels a lot like when we were at Arima Memorial... They've reached that level too."

Good Opera nodded in agreement, but at this moment, Wada was quite emotional. He had only been able to reach the level that the Three Goddesses could do through their "miracles," but unexpectedly, the Golden Master and Ikezoe had already activated it on their own.

Although it was very immature, it was a miracle that Hotan could only achieve once with the help of the "Three Goddesses"!

"If I and good opera are the perfect partners, then, Mr. Ikezoe, you two are probably the strongest partners."
