Having trained real horses, why are we now training racehorse girls after time-traveling?

With that, Jin Lang finally left the ward, and McQueen slowly raised his head. After a long while, he murmured to himself:

"The Emperor's Prize... Can I still participate... in this situation?"

……

Jin Lang left the ward, and after the ward door was pushed open, the East Sea Emperor and the Golden Ship, who had been listening outside, also took several steps back. Jin Lang didn't say much about their eavesdropping. He knew they were worried about McQueen's condition.

"What should we do... McQueen seems to be in a bad mood." The emperor was also worried and frowning, not knowing what to do.

"McQueen will figure it out himself... Of course, it will take time." Jin Lang gently patted the Empress's head to reassure her, then added:

"Your Majesty, you and McQueen have a good relationship. In the meantime, I may need to trouble you to give her some guidance."

"Ah? Then why are you being dragged down?" the emperor couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I need to negotiate for priority in the Spring Emperor's Prize. With results like those from the Hanshin Grand Prix, I won't get priority. I need to talk to a few of the racehorse trainers and try my best to persuade them to give their spots to McQueen."

Jinlang shrugged. He had already messaged Ikezoe, Wada, and Naze Fumino about it. All three trainers said they would try their best to help Jinlang. Although it was troublesome, it shouldn't be too difficult to handle.

Hearing Jin Lang's words, the Emperor of the East Sea nodded in understanding. At that moment, the golden ship, which had been silent all along, stepped forward and spoke to Jin Lang in a gentle tone:

"Grandpa, I'd like to participate in the debut competition, is that alright?"

"……Um?"

However, the golden ship's sudden remark startled Jin Lang. The next moment, he saw the East Sea Emperor look at the golden ship with an expression as if he were looking at the end of the world, and subconsciously tugged at Jin Lang's sleeve, saying:

"No, this is terrible! Golden Ship's brain has been fried!"

"Hey, that's very rude of you, little emperor! Lord Golden Ship is very serious!"

The charade of the Golden Ship was instantly exposed; unable to maintain the facade any longer, it casually slapped the emperor on the head, leaving the child dizzy and disoriented, before continuing to speak to Jin Lang:

"Grandpa, I want to participate in the debut competition—no, it seems like the debut competition isn't until after June, so I want to go straight for GIII!"

"Isn't there a GIII mile race at Zhongshan Racecourse this month? Let me go, old man, I'll make McQueen regain his confidence!"

Chapter 254: Rudolf: I've made it big! I've waited until the Golden Ship debuted!

"Are you really sure? Golden Ship, are you going to debut at this juncture? With Golden Masters aiming for the Classic Triple Crown, and East Sea Emperor debuting next year, are you sure you want to debut at this time?"

"Hehe, old man, you make it sound like I care a lot about the classic triple crown. For me, being fun is the most important thing."

Some time later, in the hospital garden, Jinlang and Golden Boat were walking together. Golden Boat was 170 centimeters tall, similar to Jinlang. Moreover, since Jinlang's current appearance was not that of an old man from before his transmigration, but a young man, the way the two walked side by side did not look like an old man and his granddaughter, but rather like a young college graduate and his girlfriend, Ma Niang.

However, the atmosphere between the two was completely different from that of a couple who were deeply in love. Jin Lang's excessively young face shone with the love of an elder for his child, while Huang Jinchuan's face showed no embarrassment whatsoever, only the coquettishness of a child.

"I haven't entered the classic year yet, so I won't run into Master Sister this year—although I really want to help Master Sister, I'd better not steal her thunder this year."

"And, Grandpa, I know that the Good Opera Students Association will be going to the Arc de Triomphe this year. If Sister Jujiang really does win the Classic Triple Crown this year, just like Chi Tian said, then the Arc de Triomphe invitation should continue to come, right?"

"Well... not necessarily." Jin Lang smiled and shook his head, saying, "Paris has never extended an invitation to us for two consecutive years, and we are not eligible to participate in the Arc de Triomphe Grand Prix every year."

"But... if she's a master of gold, I think perhaps fate will favor her this time?"

"Of course! Even if the three goddesses heard about it, they would definitely extend an invitation to Sister Master Craftsman!"

Upon hearing this, the Golden Ship appeared extremely confident, even giving the impression that she was one of the three goddesses incarnate. What's even more bizarre is that even if it were revealed one day that the Golden Ship truly was an incarnation of one of the three goddesses, it wouldn't seem so hard to accept...

The Golden Ship is something that no matter what happens, it doesn't seem strange. Even Jin Lang finds this inexplicably amazing.

"But we can't rely on the three goddesses alone, old man. Take McQueen for example, this is a great opportunity to boost McQueen's favorability! Let me, Lord Golden Ship, handle this!"

Golden Ship puffed out her surprisingly ample chest and said with great confidence, "When the main plot of this Galgame is really going to happen, it would be great if there was a save function, but our world doesn't have a save function, not even an alarm clock, so we can only make the most of the moment."

"I'm understanding less and less... but I understand what you mean."

Jin Lang felt that Golden Ship had said something that seemed to break down the dimensional barrier, but he still understood Golden Ship's magical thought process and couldn't help but ask, "McQueen's current state does need encouragement, but if it's just about running, it may not be enough to completely rouse McQueen."

"Hmph, as for that, Lord Golden Ship already has a solution!"

However, Golden Boat didn't say much about it. He just confidently put his hands on his hips and said, "Grandpa, you just need to help me register for the race. I remember that race is in two or three days, right? I still need to rush to Zhongshan Racecourse."

“Well, in that case, let’s leave McQueen in the Emperor’s care for now.” Jin Lang nodded slightly upon hearing this, but his small decision surprised Golden Ship.

"Hey? Grandpa, aren't you going to accompany McQueen on this? This is a great opportunity to boost McQueen's favorability!"

"A GIII match is nothing for Master Golden Ship, you don't need to worry so much, old man. Why don't you stay here and keep McQueen company?"

"What are you saying, Golden Ship? Where are your own racehorse girls going to races when the trainers aren't even there?" Jinlang was amused and annoyed by Golden Ship's words. He reached out and tugged at Golden Ship's ear, but his fingers didn't apply any force. In the end, pulling the ear became more of a playful gesture.

“I’ve never missed a single McQueen match, and the same goes for yours. I will be there for every single one of the East Sea Emperor’s matches from now on, and that will not change.”

"So, I'll call the president now and ask her to help us register for the competition. I'm sure she'll do everything she can to get us a spot when she hears you're going to participate."

After all, that's the Golden Ship. If the Golden Ship suddenly says it's going to run a race, even the "Emperor" would probably be interested in watching the race. What is the true strength of the Golden Ship, which has been causing trouble at Treson Academy all this time?

……

Meanwhile, at Treson Academy, inside the student council, Rudolf was also looking at the newspaper in his hand—the headline was about the Hanshin Grand Prix fiasco, with Megumi McQueen's image immediately appearing on the front page.

"The failure of the Hanshin Grand Prize makes Mejiro McQueen's hopes for the Spring Emperor's Prize slim" - I must say, as expected of the media, they don't seem to care about the opinions of the old lady of the Mejiro family when they come up with this kind of headline.

“Even Mejiro Ranch can’t reach the media.” As he poured Rudo’s symbol a cup of coffee, he said calmly, “The media has no connection with the central government, so we can’t care what they write.”

"...But this must have been a huge blow to McQueen. Her long-awaited first victory was shattered by this unexpected event. In addition, everyone on the team performed exceptionally well in the previous three matches, so it's no wonder she fainted."

“The Mejiro family’s racehorse girls are already heading towards Hanshin. I’ve already granted them leave.” Kiss put down his coffee pot and sat down in a seat. “However, what these media outlets are saying is true. After this Hanshin Grand Prix, it will probably be really difficult for McQueen to compete for the Spring Emperor’s Prize again.”

"Trainers Wada and Ikezoe have both called me, hoping to get our help so that McQueen can compete smoothly in the Spring Emperor's Prize." Rudolf nodded, putting down his newspaper and speaking calmly.

"I'm currently discussing with several other trainers the possibility of letting some of their racehorse girls who are in poor condition avoid racing. If all goes well, McQueen should be able to participate in the Spring Emperor's Shot."

"—Of course, he'll definitely be assigned to the outermost perimeter. We can only hope that McQueen can make the most of this opportunity."

"...I'm more worried about the child's condition. I don't know if she can recover from this blow before the Emperor's Gift." Qi Cao shook his head, speaking with a hint of sadness. Lu Duo didn't answer, but it was clear that she was also worried about the same thing.

"Beep beep beep." A phone suddenly rang, and Lu Duo picked it up without hesitation and said:

"Hello, this is Rudo Symbol - Trainer Jinlang? It's rare to see you calling me."

"If it's about McQueen's Spring Emperor's Prize, I'll do my best. I just hope things go well for McQueen... What? Signing up for the competition?"

"Yes." On the other end of the phone, Jinlang nodded in confirmation, "I would like to register for the GIII competition in Zhongshan this month."

"...Forgive my bluntness, Senior Jinlang, I understand that you want to challenge the team's March dominance, but given McQueen's current condition, she is not suitable to compete anymore." Lu Duo said with a slightly serious expression, "She needs rest. Even the GIII competition cannot be taken lightly. Moreover, the central regulations stipulate that after such a long-distance competition, there should be at least half a month of rest."

"No, no, no, it's not McQueen participating, it's the Gold Ship."

"Oh? I see, it's a golden ship..."

However, Lu Duo had just felt relieved after hearing this when his brain belatedly realized the meaning of Jin Lang's words, and his expression stiffened slightly.

After a long silence, Jinlang, receiving no reply, asked again, "President? Are you still there?"

"...I'm sorry, trainer Jinlang, I've probably been too busy lately and my focus has been a bit lax."

"Could you please repeat...who is participating in the competition?"

“Ah, it is… the Golden Ship.” Jin Lang answered honestly again, but after a long silence, Rudol’s symbolic voice said softly:

"Is today not April Fool's Day? Or is this some kind of lame joke? Please tell me what's so funny."

"No, it's true." Jin Lang said, sounding a little like he had a toothache. "I know it's a bit unbelievable, but the Golden Ship really is going to participate in the competition."

"...Understood. I will take care of it."

Lu Duo silently hung up the phone, then plopped back into his chair. Qi Kuo, noticing Lu Duo's change in mood, asked with concern, "What's wrong, President?"

"...Air tank, is our student council's special incident log list with you?"

"Ugh?"

"Make this entry for me, just write... Under the leadership of the seventh president of the Treson Student Council, Rudolf, the student Golden Ship successfully debuted during the president's term and participated in the first competition."

Rudolf believed that based on his "achievements" during his tenure, he could be "at the top" and "successful" in the position of student council president at Treson College.

She might have another undefeated three-time champion in the future, but she's the only one who can get the Golden Ship to play!

Chapter 255: The Golden Ship: What's a Star Racehorse Girl?

However, for some unknown reason, ever since the student council received this news and recorded this glorious scene in the "Student Council Special Event Record List" of Treson Academy, the news spread like wildfire in a strange way and quickly spread throughout the entire Treson Academy.

"What? The Golden Ship is going to have a race?"

"Who?! The Golden Ship?!"

"Is this for real? That golden ship—it actually went to race?!"

"The race at Nakayama Racecourse! Everyone! We can still make it to Chiba now! Let's hurry and get ready to watch that guy, Gold Ship's race!"

"That's right, this guy has been in Tressen for so long, and he's finally running a race. My life hasn't been in vain!"

Before long, many of the racehorse girls at Treson Academy, whether they had been pranked by Golden Ship or had heard of Golden Ship's "infamous" reputation, were shocked by the news posted on the academy forum. Suddenly, everyone stopped attending classes and postponed training, and began buying train tickets from Tokyo to Chiba, planning to catch up with the GIII competition in two days as soon as possible.

Many trainers were extremely incredulous when they received the news, with Ms. Fumino Nase, trainer Wada's assistant, being the most shocked.

"Who? The Golden Ship? She's in a race?"

"Are you sure you're not kidding? Senior Jinlang actually managed to convince that Golden Ship to participate in the race? ...I'm really starting to admire him more and more."

As a member of the "Golden Ship Victims Association," Fumino Nase deeply understands the torment the Golden Ship inflicted on her. Now, she is surprised that someone can subdue the Golden Ship and even make her run races, making her run like a real racehorse girl.

All Naze Fumino could say was that, regardless of who this person was, he was someone she could treat with the utmost respect.

"Sigh... Golden Ship? Seriously, I never expected her to finally be playing in a match." Raging Waves, looking at the news, said with a hint of disbelief.

"Truly, as expected of Trainer Jinlang... He can even convince Golden Ship."

"Ah, the Golden Ship, the unsinkable vessel renowned within Treson Academy, is it finally about to set sail?" Good Opera was quite excited about this news. Good Opera had been preparing for the expedition with Divine Eagle for quite some time and hadn't had a race in a long time.

She might not have been able to see anything before, but since her compatibility with her original self has increased significantly, her instincts as a racehorse girl have given her a greater ability to "appreciate" the potential and talent of many racehorse girls.

This is also true for the legendary racehorse girls like Rudolf, who can sense the potential and upper limit of a racehorse girl. Therefore, she is now very clear that the seemingly unserious and reckless Golden Ship actually contains a very powerful force.

"Since everyone is so interested, let's take this opportunity to go to the Zhongshan Racecourse together and see how the Golden Boat's debut goes?" Wada put down what he was doing and said to the group.

"Golden Ship's playing style should surprise us all. Let's take this opportunity to see how they perform in their debut." As he said this, Wada couldn't help but turn his gaze to Fumino Nase. As a member of the team, Fumino Nase's opinion was also very important.

“Hmm… if this doesn’t affect training…” Naze Fumino was also very curious. Although her reason told her that doing so would delay training, she still chose to accept the proposal under Wada’s expectant gaze.

Meanwhile, on Chi Tian's side, the same scene was unfolding. In fact, after hearing the news, the Golden Master sent it to all the members of the Golden Family, announcing the news to them all.

"Big Sister! Sister Meng! Sister Zhongshan! Did you all see that?! Golden Ship actually went to the competition!"
