But the celebration still went ahead, so much so that when the "Miracle" team returned to Treson Academy, they were all completely bewildered. Only Golden Ship, after seeing the banner, seemed to understand something and put his hands on his hips, saying:
"Hahahaha! I didn't expect that I, Lord Golden Ship, would be so popular! After winning my debut battle, everyone celebrated for me so much!"
"I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations in the future. From now on, I will work even harder to bring joy to everyone!"
Fortunately, just as Golden Ship was shouting this, the next day, Golden Ship was towed away by Jin Lang, who had already arranged her training. And for the first time in history, everyone at Treson Academy experienced... the tranquility without Golden Ship.
Many years later, within the Disciplinary Committee of Treson Academy, every new member would see a statue of a certain young man, and when they inquired about him, they would receive a solemn answer from their seniors:
"Although we don't quite understand it either, according to our predecessors, it was because of this man that we disciplinary committee members gained real authority."
The statue of that man was none other than Takatoshi Imamichi, the trainer who subdued the Golden Ship. Unfortunately, he would never know about this...
……
After the fervor of March, the Miracle team quickly gained fame, and the subsequent Satsuki Sho and Spring Emperor Sho GI tournaments in April made other teams realize the Miracle team's fighting spirit.
They all knew that March was just an appetizer for Team Miracle; April was when they would really make their move. Whether it was the Golden Master aiming for the Classic Triple Crown or Mejiro McQueen planning to participate in the Spring Emperor's Slam, both made the other teams and trainers nervous.
In comparison, the "Overlord" Good Opera and the GII Aoba Prize scheduled for April by Golden Eagle seem somewhat insignificant, and almost no one is optimistic about Golden Eagle, but no one wants to run into Good Opera in this GII competition.
People are focusing more on the upcoming Satsuki Sho and the subsequent Spring Emperor Sho, while the Gold Master, who will be the first Gold Master to compete in April, seems to have been paying more attention to her training lately.
"Phew... they caught up this time too."
The Golden Master breathed a slight sigh of relief, and about fifty meters behind her, Mi Yu's figure gradually caught up.
"Ha, ha... Master, you have amazing stamina."
"You're not bad either, Mi Yu. I really didn't expect that someone as thin and small as you could run for so long."
During this period, the Golden Master had been tacitly allowing Mi Yu to follow his pace in parallel running training. Mi Yu usually followed the Golden Master at a distance of fifty meters. Recently, the Golden Master also had a frank conversation with Mi Yu, and their current parallel running training is now under the mutual approval of both parties.
Even the Golden Master had to admit that he had underestimated Mi Yu. Mi Yu's endurance was comparable to hers. Even the Golden Master had to be almost exhausted before he could wear Mi Yu down. And there was no doubt that the two of them could run any long-distance race in Japan that was in China.
The master craftsman gradually began to value Miyu, even imparting his insights to the horse girl who had lost to him in sixth place at the Yayoi Sho. In her words, he was "repeating what Ikezoe had taught him to Miyu."
This also provided Mi Yu, who had been lacking in theoretical knowledge and had no trainers, with some theoretical supplements. Although the Golden Master's ability to repeat things was not good, Mi Yu cherished this learning opportunity. No matter how badly the Golden Master explained things, she would memorize them word for word.
To some extent, Mi Yu can be said to have been taught by the Golden Master and Chi Tian together. She herself is well aware of this, but she has never spoken up... because she knows that if she misses this learning opportunity, she may miss the best time to strengthen herself.
After this parallel run ended, Mi Yu felt compelled to speak, and stepped forward to ask the Gold Master:
"Um... Master, although I'm very grateful that you were willing to train alongside Mi Yu and share Coach Chi Tian's training plan..."
"But, Mi Yu still wants to know, you've shared this knowledge with me and helped me train... Aren't you afraid that one day... Mi Yu will surpass you?"
After a long while, Mi Yu finally revealed her inner doubts. She thought she was already the type of person who was easy to fool, but she didn't expect that the Golden Master was even easier to fool than her. He didn't even need to fool her. After getting to know Mi Yu, the Golden Master shared his experience with her without any reservations.
Mi Yu is now somewhat worried. The Golden Master has been so good to her. If she becomes as strong as the Golden Master one day, and accidentally betrays the Golden Master's three crowns... how will she view her?
Mi Yu only had one friend, the Golden Master, so she was conflicted, but in the end she still chose to remind him.
However, upon hearing Mi Yu's words, the Gold Master was slightly taken aback. But shortly after, he burst into laughter and said to Mi Yu:
"Haha, you're quite funny, but you should say that when you're in second place. Right now, you're not strong enough."
"You haven't even learned the [momentum], so you can't compete with me at all. Back in the Yayoi Sho, I didn't even have to run at full speed with you guys."
"Aura...?" Mi Yu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is it the power you used in the friendly match, Master? I've heard that everyone on Master's team seems to have this ability."
"But... I don't seem to have the talent for rice baths, how can I learn it?"
"Well... I don't know either. My only advice is to run more races."
The Gold Master scratched his head, unsure how to teach Mi Yu. As one of the few Gold Masters who wasn't afraid of Mi Yu at all, she took good care of her. Of course, mainly because she didn't think Mi Yu would be a threat to her. Meipu Bourbon might be considered an opponent by the Gold Masters, but she hadn't yet grasped the [Aura].
Thinking this, the Gold Master suddenly remembered something, and clapped his fist slightly, saying:
"By the way, Mi Yu, McQueen needs a partner to run with. She's going to participate in the Spring Emperor's Slam soon. Why don't you try running a few races with McQueen and see how it goes?"
"I feel that your tactics are quite similar to McQueen's. If you can learn a few tricks from McQueen, you might have a chance to surpass Miura Bourbon. At that time, I will really consider you as an opponent."
Chapter 266: The Trainer of Rice Bath?
"Oh? Is this senior Mi Yu? I heard he's a very special one among the seniors in the high school."
Some time later, the Golden Master also brought Rice Bath to Megumi McQueen. At this time, McQueen was still supervising the training of the Golden Ship, who was planning to slack off. This was her new task: to urge the newly debuted racehorse girls in the team to improve. Now that the Golden Ship had been released, McQueen certainly wouldn't allow her to continue to be so lazy.
When the Gold Master and Mi Yu arrived together, McQueen and the Gold Ship naturally noticed each other. After the Gold Master explained the reason for their visit, McQueen looked at Mi Yu with a slightly scrutinizing gaze.
So this is the rice bath the trainer was talking about... It doesn't seem that threatening.
McQueen knew about Mi Yu, but she hadn't had any contact with her before. She learned about this racehorse girl, Mi Yu, through Jin Lang. Right after her classic year ended, Jin Lang solemnly told her that if she ever encountered a racehorse girl named "Mi Yu" on the racetrack, she must be wary of her, as she was a racehorse girl who might unleash extremely terrifying strength.
McQueen kept Jin Lang's warning in mind and regarded the "rice bath" that Jin Lang mentioned as a major enemy. But now, when the Gold Master stood in front of her with this thin and small racehorse girl, she could hardly believe that this was the rice bath.
Is this really the one the trainer was talking about, the one who would be a huge threat to her racehorse journey? For a moment, McQueen couldn't help but have some doubts.
"Um...did I cause any trouble for everyone, Mi Yu?"
McQueen's scrutinizing gaze, lingering in silence, made Mi Yu feel extremely uncomfortable. She nervously fiddled with her fingers and timidly said:
"Mi Yu, Mi Yu knows that I've been too proud to come here and ask everyone for advice, but, but Mi Yu really wants to become stronger... so that Mi Yu can truly compete on the field with Master, instead of just being a supporting character."
"—No, that's not true, Mi Yu." McQueen temporarily suppressed his doubts and quickly said with a gentle smile:
“Every racehorse girl has a heart that wants to become stronger. Your performance at Yayoi-sho made you realize that you need to improve your strength, which is very good. At least, it’s better than some of our team members who are full of confidence after winning a race.”
"Hey, McQueen?! I'm right here!" the Golden Ship shouted immediately, clearly annoyed. Even so, the tall Golden Ship still approached Mi Yu with a smile, looked him over with admiration, and then nodded with satisfaction, saying:
"Hmm, I can tell you're pretty good! Want to join our team?"
"Huh? Well... isn't this a bit too sudden?" Mi Yu seemed quite uncomfortable with someone praising her as "strong" right after meeting her, and answered somewhat nervously:
"Furthermore, rice baths will bring misfortune to everyone. Although I am very grateful, I am... sorry..."
"Golden Ship, don't let Mi Yu get in trouble."
Just then, Jin Lang's voice slowly drifted over from not far away, and everyone's eyes turned to Jin Lang. Jin Lang, accompanied by the Emperor of the East Sea, had just arrived.
"Trainer Jinlang." All the female racehorses greeted Jinlang with great respect. Even the Golden Master was quite docile in front of him, prompting Mi Yu to immediately follow suit and greet Jinlang as well.
"Hello, trainer Jinlang."
"Hmm, hello, you must be Mi Yu, right?" Jin Lang walked up to the crowd with the Emperor of the East Sea. It was actually the first time he had met Mi Yu, but because he had met Mi Yu in person before and knew Mi Yu's story, he was certain that the other person was Mi Yu, even though it was the first time they had met.
Its jet-black coat, slender body, and the blue rose on the tilted hat on its head were all characteristics of Mi Yu, the tragic racehorse of "Unyielding Blue Rose".
As a veteran who had spent his entire life in the horse racing industry, Jinlang was naturally aware of Miyu's tragedy. Although she ultimately collapsed at the Kyoto Racecourse, and her controversial life that even after her death was not strictly related to Jinlang, he couldn't completely ignore it now that he had witnessed it.
Although it is clear that Miyu cannot join their team for the time being, Jinlang will do its best to change the fate of this poor racehorse girl.
Of course, this is not because Jinlang has too much pity. The three naughty kids in the team are already enough to keep him busy. Jinlang really doesn't have the extra energy to take care of Miyu. Even if he really wanted to bring Miyu into the team, he would probably send Miyu to the team in Hotan - after all, they have two trainers.
But after all, he was a veteran who had spent his whole life in the horse racing industry. He almost instinctively wanted to help these racehorses with their tragic fates, especially since, in this world, these racehorses had all turned into adorable racehorse girls.
Who would want to see such a poor child suffer? Therefore, whether as a senior or as a man, Jinlang felt it was his duty and responsibility to lend a helping hand.
"Miyu should have a trainer by now, right? She shouldn't be able to join our team now, Golden Ship, don't do anything reckless."
"Um... Mi Yu doesn't have a trainer..." Upon hearing Jin Lang's words, Mi Yu cautiously raised her hand and said, but her answer surprised Jin Lang a little.
After all, the fact that Miyu hadn't found a trainer by the time she reached the advanced department meant that all of Miyu's theoretical knowledge so far had been learned by herself through trial and error in class or by secretly learning from various places. This was not as efficient as one-on-one professional guidance from a trainer. Yet, Miyu had managed to rely on self-study to this day, competing with Golden Master and other racehorse girls for the Yayoi Prize, and even achieving a sixth-place finish.
Although this result is insignificant and doesn't even qualify, it's important to know that Miyu's competitors are three racehorse girls: Golden Master, Miura Bourbon, and Special Week. Their trainers are all at least "A+" level, and each of them has received considerable training.
Miyu was able to compete with these three racehorse girls in the Yayoi Sho without a trainer and even came in sixth place. This result already demonstrates Miyu's ability. Moreover, Miyu is strictly speaking a racehorse girl specializing in long distances. The 2000-meter middle distance of the Yayoi Sho is not Miyu's strongest area.
However, what surprised Jinlang was not this point, but Mi Yu's statement that she did not have a trainer. This made Jinlang think of another name, and he asked with a slight brightening in his eyes.
"Miyu, I don't know if you've heard of... a trainer called Averaging?"
"His average per game... no, Mi Yu has never heard of this name..."
However, although Mi Yu answered in this way, when she heard this name, she still couldn't help but feel a slight pang in her heart. She didn't know how to describe this feeling. Even though it was the first time she had heard this name, she felt as if she had known the person with this name for a long time...
Driven by this feeling, Mi Yu's ears, which were a size larger than those of a typical racehorse girl, twitched slightly, and she cautiously asked Jin Lang:
"Um... Trainer Jinlang, that guy you mentioned called 'Average Player'... Mi Yu, may I meet him?"
"Although it's a bit abrupt, Mi Yu would like to see him..."
"He's probably still far away and can't come to see you for the time being." Jin Lang gently shook his head upon hearing this, declining Mi Yu's request. After all, only the three of them had traveled through time this time, and that guy from the original world was probably still in his original world, and if he wasn't mistaken, he was already frantically searching for the three of them who had gone missing.
Jin Lang's words made Mi Yu feel a little down, but for some reason, she felt a slight sense of relief when she heard from Jin Lang's words that the person named "Chang Jun" should still be alive. A strange feeling of relief spread through her heart.
Jin Lang didn't let this awkward atmosphere last long. Soon, he said to Mi Yu:
“Mi Yu, if you don’t want to join our team, I won’t force you. But if you want to become stronger, and truly become someone who can rival a Gold Master, as you said, then you’ll have to undergo special training.”
"Coincidentally, I've been researching training methods for cultivating [aura] lately. I think you might want to give it a try."
Chapter 267: Rice Bath's Domain, the Dark Assassin!
"Um, trainer Jinlang, will this method really be effective?"
However, Mi Yu was pulled by the group to the training ground. At this moment, Mi Yu was looking at Megumi McQueen, who was going to take the lead, and Golden Ship, who was going to chase her from behind. Mi Yu, who was sandwiched between the two Reed Horse Girls, was also a little confused about this training method.
"To be honest, I'm not really sure either. This training method works differently for different racehorses. But based on my current data, it seems to be somewhat effective."
At this moment, Jin Lang was standing to the side with the East Sea Emperor. The East Sea Emperor was the only one in the team who had not yet awakened [Aura]. Jin Lang originally intended to let her go in and experience it as well, but the Emperor refused to participate in the training, saying that "I have already experienced enough."
Therefore, only Miyu can personally experience this kind of training that the Golden Master once experienced. Under the siege of the two racehorse girls' "momentum", can she be forced to awaken her potential? This is a training method that Jinlang is currently researching to help racehorse girls awaken their "momentum".
After his conversation with Daishin that day, Imai began to consciously study the abilities of [Domain] and [Aura], which greatly amplify the power of racehorse girls. As one of the only three people who, as humans, could still observe the state of racehorse girls, Imai also took it upon himself to begin testing these two abilities.
Of course, Jin Lang wasn't using Mi Yu as a guinea pig. Long before Mi Yu arrived, he had already tested him on Megumi McQueen, the Golden Ship, and the Emperor of the East Sea, and the three of them reacted very differently.
Under the pressure of the opera and the raging waves, McQueen quickly reacted, unleashing his [momentum] to resist. Although it was quickly suppressed, he still showed extreme defiance.
The golden ship remained completely still in the same environment, without even activating its "aura," as if nothing had happened.
As for the Emperor of the East Sea... she almost cried from fright at first, but fortunately, she cried in Jin Lang's arms for a while and then cheered up. She lasted a little longer after that, but there was no sign of her activating her [aura].
Now, the three female racehorses are in different situations, so Jinlang feels that this matter is not certain, but it is worth testing. After all, what if Miyu is as easy to arouse as McQueen?
"Of course, Mi Yu, this is just a test. Under the pressure of the two racehorse girls' [aura], you will definitely feel a lot of pressure, so don't grit your teeth and persevere too much. If you feel that something is wrong with your condition, you should immediately let us know. Don't force yourself, understand?"
"Yes, yes!" Mi Yu nodded upon hearing this, then her expression turned serious, and she assumed a running posture.
"Go for it, Mi Yu!" The Gold Master beside her also cheered for Mi Yu, as she had high hopes for her.
Of course, the Golden Master's current optimism is based on the fact that she feels Mi Yu is not a threat to her. She does not yet regard Mi Yu as a racehorse girl of the same level as herself, so she can encourage Mi Yu's progress without any worries.
