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

This is Golden Giant's first race, and it's the first step she's about to take as a racehorse girl after a long wait. If she can win this debut race, then the following year, she will embark on the road to conquering the Triple Crown.

Rudolf, who has a very high opinion of the goldsmith, is very confident in this.

The prerequisite is that the Gold Master can discover and unleash this potential within her, which is currently the biggest obstacle troubling them.

"President, do you think the Golden Master can win this race?" However, Qi Kao held a somewhat pessimistic view. Looking at the race girls who had come from other academies in the central region or from the provinces, she couldn't help but ask anxiously:

"Golden Master hadn't received much systematic training before this. Although I've occasionally seen her training on the field during this period, to be honest... it won't have much effect."

"What she needs is a trainer, a trainer who can provide her with systematic training, someone she can trust, someone who can unleash her potential, and someone who knows her well enough."

“And we still don’t know where the potential of the Gold Master lies.” Narita Shirahito, who was sitting lazily with a blade of grass in his mouth, said indifferently, “We only know that she has great potential. She is so young, and she hasn’t even been trained yet, but her explosive ‘aura’ has already been shown... She is definitely a good prospect.”

"Even more talented than the East Sea Emperor whom the president cares so much about... but why can't it be activated?"

Narita Shirahito was quite puzzled by this, as she and the Gold Master were actually quite familiar with each other. Their personalities were similar; Narita Shirahito appeared cold and fierce, but this was actually due to her inner timidity, lack of security, and even being frightened by her own shadow.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have earned the title "The Blindfolded Monster." Few people know these things about Narita Shirahito; everyone thinks she's aloof. But the Golden Master... from the first moment Narita Shirahito saw her, he understood that this seemingly fierce racehorse girl's heart was actually just like hers.

It was precisely because of this that Narita Shirahito was the first student council member to recognize that "Golden Master is an extremely promising horse racer." However, even though everyone in the student council agrees on this point, Golden Master has not shown anything special.

“I don’t know either… Perhaps the Golden Masters are beings beyond our comprehension.” Rudol also didn’t know how to respond, and simply said, “The Golden Family is a family that is both risky and miraculous, and is also a notoriously difficult family to manage. Without exception, their family members have very high potential, and in some aspects, they are no less than the Meguro Family.”

"However, the biggest drawback is that every racehorse girl in the Golden Family is extremely individualistic and difficult to control. So far, the trainer Imanami, who was able to subdue the Golden Ship, is the one I thought was the most likely to be able to control the racehorse girls in the Golden Family."

"But, the Golden Master, I'm convinced that if there really is someone who can control the Golden Master, then that person can only be him."

As he said this, Rudol's symbolic gaze also turned to the other side of the stands. Kiss and Narita Shirohito followed suit and noticed that side, where a row of rookie trainers and their assigned racehorse girls were standing.

Of course, Lu Duo's biggest concern was Ikezono—because he was unusually absent from the scene at this moment.

Rudolf believes that Ikezoe is not here; it's impossible for him not to be present at the debut match of the Golden Master.

So...where did he go?

……

"Hehe, today is actually Master Sister's debut battle! I never thought I would see Master Sister participate in a competition one day."

At that moment, Jin Lang, who was standing next to Jin Lang, was also leaning on the railing, looking expectant and happy, and said, "I wonder if Sister Ju Jiang knows that we're all here. She's probably under so much pressure that she's about to cry."

"Golden Ship... Master Craftsman is still your older sister, is this really okay?"

Meanwhile, McQueen scratched her head with a rather helpless expression—her debut competition had come to a successful close, and everything was going very smoothly. After undergoing systematic training at Jinlang, McQueen's growth was remarkable, and her weight had also been brought under control.

Due to the timing of McQueen's debut competition, he will undoubtedly miss the Satsuki Sho. McQueen is now preparing for the Japanese Derby and is actively preparing to win several key matches to gain priority in the Japanese Derby.

"Trainer, we've come all this way... Excuse me for being blunt, but was it really necessary?" Megumi McQueen clearly didn't understand Jin Lang's actions and turned to ask, "If Golden Master wants to compete for the triple crown, she'll have to wait until next year. Why did we come to watch her fight?"

Was it simply because she was the older sister of the Golden Ship? Megumi McQueen didn't ask this question aloud. She felt that this reason was invalid; the trainer was a very fair person and wouldn't do something so biased.

"Just came to watch the Golden Masters' match." Jin Lang simply said this, a faint smile on his face, as he addressed the Golden Ship and McQueen:

"McQueen, Golden Ship, you should watch carefully. The Golden Master's match will definitely be very beneficial to you."

“Study her racing and running style carefully. Even if we don’t meet this year… we will face her sooner or later.”

He was going to face off against what was touted as the strongest horse racer in all of Japan. Imanami didn't say this aloud, but he, Wada, and even the temporarily absent Ikezoe all knew it.

"Good Opera, Raging Waves, you two should keep a close eye on Golden Master." On the other side, Wada also said very seriously to her two racehorse girls, "Golden Master... may be the most threatening opponent we may face in the future."

"Carefully observing her running style and racing approach is very helpful to us."

The Golden Master... This world truly seems full of miracles. Wada was also incredibly nervous. He never imagined that one day he would be competing against what was known as the strongest racehorse in all of Japan, in almost the same era.

Fortunately, they were a year apart; otherwise, many achievements of great operas would have had to be recalculated.

Mr. Ikezoe, it seems you're much luckier than me.

……

"What to do, what ......"

"I impulsively stepped onto the track, and I'm only the second most popular—how could an ordinary racehorse like me be the second most popular?! What if I come in last place?! That would be such a disgrace!"

The Golden Master was also standing alone in the corner, trembling in front of the wall. However, the more afraid she was, the stronger the "aura" that unconsciously leaked from her body became, causing the racehorse girls around her to be terrified and give way.

At this moment, many female horse racers also paid attention to the Golden Master. Their expressions changed drastically, and they all regarded the Golden Master as their greatest enemy. Little did they know that the Golden Master was in a panic and almost wanted to withdraw from the race on the spot.

"Golden Master? Someone's looking for you outside, it's your trainer!" At that moment, a staff member suddenly walked in and said to everyone. The Golden Master, startled, was slightly taken aback and instinctively turned around.

"Trainer? I..."

However, before the Gold Master could finish speaking, a figure slowly walked in. She was slightly taken aback and subconsciously said:

"Ikezoe? What brings you here?!"

"Of course I'm here to cheer you on, look."

As Chi Tian spoke, he waved the box he had been holding and said to the slightly stunned Gold Master, "I also brought you a gift as a congratulatory gift for your victory in your debut match!"

Chapter 63: Ikezoe's Encouragement, the Awakening of Japan's Strongest Racehorse Girl!

However, Ikezoe's arrival undoubtedly attracted the attention of many horse girls who were going to participate in the race, and the familiar manner between Ikezoe and the Golden Master immediately made the horse girls gossip.

Who is this?

"It seems to be that horse racing girl's trainer..."

"No way? So young?"

"Isn't that even better? Most of the young trainers are inexperienced, so we might actually win!"

The gossip around him also reached the ears of the Gold Master. Almost instinctively, the Gold Master frowned and turned his head with an unfriendly look at the racehorse girls.

Wearing a mask, the Golden Master's gaze, which exuded an aura of power, startled the horse racers, who immediately left the scene. Soon, only the Golden Master and Chi Tian remained.

"You're being watched, Master." Ikezoe noticed the behavior of the racehorse girls and couldn't help but say with emotion, "Second in popularity in your debut race, Master. It seems that even though you're just starting out, you're already more dazzling than the average racehorse girl."

"Who do you think this is because of, you idiot, Ikezoe!"

However, the Golden Master was quite flustered, clutching her hair in despair, and said in a panic, "I'm just an ordinary racehorse! I haven't even participated in much training! How am I supposed to run?! I don't even know what running style I should use!"

"What should I do! What should I do?!"

"...If we can't make a decision, why don't we just run after the horse?"

Chi Tian was also taken aback by the panicked state of the Golden Giant, and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. He had ridden the Golden Giant for almost its entire racing career, and all he remembered was its antics, resistance, lack of cooperation, and its ferocity when it galloped across the track.

Now that he had arrived in this world, Chi Tian was seeing another side of the Gold Master for the first time—a flustered, uneasy, and insecure man. Looking at the Gold Master like this, Chi Tian initially found it amusing, but then he began to take it seriously.

His Golden Master is not some timid and cowardly racehorse girl; she is, in his heart, the strongest racehorse girl who can conquer the world!

“Master, you don’t need to worry about which running style to use. If I were to recommend one, you could run the chasing horse. That would be the safest running style for you. But even if you don’t run the chasing horse, this victory is yours for the taking. There will be no other outcome.”

"Chasing a horse... but I've never chased a horse before..."

However, the ears of the indecisive Gold Master drooped slightly, and he even subconsciously forgot that it was Ikezoe who gave him the order. He said uneasily, "Back when I was at home, I did run with my older sister and younger sisters... but we just ran around aimlessly... my eldest sister never taught us how to run."

"I always come in last place, what should I do? Is it really possible to run a race to catch up?"

Sisters... do you mean Dream Journey and Golden Ship? Chi Tian was also a little unclear about who the Golden Family members in this world were, but based on his experience, the Golden Family's racehorses were quite troublesome, especially good at tormenting him.

If it were truly a dream journey... Ikezoe would really want to lie down on the train tracks that very day and relive the experience.

Chi Tian immediately shook his head, clearing these distracting thoughts from his mind, and then bowed to the Gold Master and said:

“Master, you must have confidence in yourself. The Golden Master I know is not such a timid racehorse girl.”

"I still remember the force with which you kicked me back then. How did you manage to do that?"

"I……"

The Golden Master opened her mouth, wanting to say, "This was just an accident," but when she thought about how she had kicked Chi Tian so hard on both occasions, she couldn't bring herself to say it was an accident.

Strange... Why do I have a conditioned reflex whenever I see Ikezoe, but not with other people?

It couldn't be... just because he didn't like his face, could it? The Golden Master looked at Chi Tian's face suspiciously, yet his legs were already itching to move again...

"You, you stay away from me, I'm afraid I'll kick you again."

"It's alright, I'm used to it." Ikezoe didn't stray too far from the Golden Master. Instead, he said to the Golden Master, "Master, there's a fierce beast inside you. When it's unleashed, no racehorse girl in all of Japan will be your match."

"However, only you can unleash that beast. At most, I can only help you to stimulate it. In the end, everything depends on you."

"—If all else fails, just pretend that person at the finish line is me! You can just think of it as them kicking me during their running start!"

Finally, Chi Tian joked in a "what the heck" manner, then handed the box to the Gold Master and said with a smile, "I'm going back to the stands. That staff member was easy to fool and let me in, but if he checks your file later, he'll probably kick me out... I'm leaving now."

"Master, you absolutely must win this match!"

After saying this, Chi Tian waved goodbye to the goldsmith. The goldsmith, who was holding the box in his hand, stared blankly as Chi Tian left. After a long while, he finally looked back at the box in front of him.

"...It's quite heavy. What's inside?" The Gold Master muttered to herself as she opened the box on the spot. Soon, she found a pair of new sneakers with horseshoes inside.

Although they're called new sneakers, they actually look exactly the same as the ones the Golden Master wore during his training sessions at school; the tags are still on...

"—100,000 yen? Where did this guy get so much money?! These shoes look pretty much the same as usual! Why are they so expensive?!"

The Golden Master was also taken aback by the price of the shoes. Although she didn't know Chi Tian very well, judging from his usual attire when they met, he didn't seem like a rich person at all. Zhen Jiling hadn't even participated in the debut competition, so he didn't have any prize money. Where did he get the money to buy such expensive shoes?

Could it be that he borrowed it from someone? The goldsmith couldn't help but think this, then picked up a shoe and examined it from left to right, muttering to himself:

"Are these shoes really that expensive? I don't see anything special about them. Are the horseshoes plated with platinum or something...?"

However, the Golden Master's voice gradually faded, because she finally discovered that these shoes were different from the other racing shoes worn by horse girls...

It turned out that on the side of the horseshoe, there was a faint line of branding marks that formed words. The goldsmith, by the light, looked at the words branded on the horseshoe...

——【Japan's Strongest Horse Girl】.

On the other side of that horseshoe, the Goldsmith saw the owner of the title, who unabashedly bore the name "Goldsmith" in a mark resembling gold.

"Japan's strongest... Gold Master... Me?"

Seemingly finding it hard to believe, the Gold Master took a long time to recover from the shock. A strange light appeared in her eyes as she looked at the shoes in her hands, suddenly feeling a sense of heaviness...

Ugh... why do my eyes suddenly feel so sore...?

"That idiot... the strongest in Japan... how could a racehorse girl like me possibly qualify?"

"But, but since you trust me so much..."

The goldsmith murmured to herself, but a slight smile unconsciously crept onto her lips, which seemed quite out of place with the tears welling up in her eyes.

But in the end, the goldsmith wiped away her tears, slowly squatted down, changed her shoes, and put on the new shoes that Chi Tian had personally handed to her.
