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

"Yes, that's right, but I will definitely defeat her!"

Sitabra was clearly very confident in herself. She had been keeping a close eye on the Gold Master's condition, and she even watched the two matches in which the Gold Master lost.

This was someone she considered her strongest opponent; she couldn't afford to be unaware of her opponent's current strength!

Chapter 116: The 1200-meter duel, the escaped golden master?

"To be honest, this child's performance in the previous two matches was not good. Since her victory in the debut match, the next two matches have been the same. Sitabre, my dear disciple, why are you so concerned about her?"

Chiaki also found it a bit strange. Her disciple was usually a rather proud and arrogant racehorse girl, but she had only changed after becoming her disciple, making some progress in her personality and interpersonal skills.

Even among GI Uma Musume contestants, Sitabre's talent is only considered above average. The reason why Chiaki values ​​her is because she has a spirit of "unyielding" that is very similar to her own.

Therefore, Chiaki took Sitabre as his personal disciple to teach, so that she could fulfill her unfulfilled dream in this competition and challenge the "symbol of Rudol" of this era.

However, at least for now, Representative Chiaki has not yet seen any signs of a "symbol of Rudolf" belonging to this era. Although she has heard of a horse girl named Good Opera who has already won two of the classic three crowns, and who, in a way similar to the nickname "Emperor," calls herself "Overlord."

However, after watching the competition, Representative Qianming did acknowledge that Good Opera's strength deserved attention, but Good Opera clearly already had its own successive "challengers" of this era. Therefore, this "overlord" is not someone that Sitablei should challenge.

If we wait a few more years, and the golden age of great opera has passed, and Sitablay, at the height of his career, manages to challenge and win, then it would be an unfair victory.

The real challenge, the real revenge, is when peak times meet peak times, and a fair and square victory! This is Qianming's idea, and it's also why, even if there's some tension between her and Ruduo when they meet, they can still get along well.

She accepted her defeat wholeheartedly. She and Rudolf had been clashing since their peak, and she knew she was no match for him, so she had nothing to say.

Despite all that has been said, Sitabre, though she has improved a lot, is still a proud and arrogant racehorse girl. Representative Qianming understands her disciple well; her goal has always been the East Sea Emperor—a rising star from Treson Academy who has yet to debut but has already shown his talent.

Logically speaking, Sitabre shouldn't have any interest in other second-rate racehorse girls, let alone racehorse girls in short-distance races, which is not her area of ​​expertise. Why would she specifically come to watch the race of this girl called "Golden Master"?

Just because this kid won a debut match against Seatabre? Representative Qianming didn't think that his highly regarded disciple would be such a narrow-minded child.

"That's not right! She just didn't perform well in those previous matches! I didn't feel that kind of momentum she had during her debut match at all in those two matches!"

This time, however, Seatabre clearly believed in her judgment, her eyes shining as she stared intently at the listless Gold Master, completely unconcerned about her current attire.

What she sensed was the aura emanating from the Golden Master, the same aura she had when she debuted, the kind that was described as "tyrant"!

This time, Seatabray was certain that the Golden Master had found her form, and this time, she was definitely stronger than she was during her debut tournament!

"Hurry up, Master of Gold, let me see your current strength. You will definitely surprise everyone!"

Sitabre was so hopeful, but he didn't notice the increasingly strange look in Qianming's eyes as he looked at his disciple... Was his disciple too concerned about this child called the Golden Master?

Or perhaps, after that debut match, this kid developed some strange fetish after being frightened by the Gold Master?

……

"The racehorse girls have started entering the gate one after another. Now only the most popular Maki and the seventh most popular Golden Master have not yet entered the gate. They seem to be talking about something."

"Hehe, Master, this seems to be our first time sparring. Are you nervous?" Zhenjiling smiled slightly and approached the Golden Master, seemingly concerned about her physical condition.

"Is everything alright this time? You seem a bit listless, Master?"

"...I'm fine."

However, the Golden Master's slightly hoarse voice clearly indicated that she was indeed very weak. Her illness had indeed been cured, but not for long, and she was still in a somewhat weak state. But she stubbornly came to participate in this competition, which now had no meaning after the misunderstanding between her and Shinji had been cleared up.

But the Golden Master persisted, not simply out of bravado, but also to prove her ability in this competition.

She felt her consciousness was very unstable, but she felt that this state was very good.

She could feel the anxiety she was experiencing, a feeling very similar to that she had during her debut competition.

"I won't let you off easy this time, you clever fellow."

"Hehe, that's really impressive! Now I can rest assured, Karen-chan~"

However, upon hearing this, Makoto narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly unleashed the aura of the ranch's number one racehorse girl that she had only shown in front of the Golden Master.

Although it lasted only a brief moment, it was enough to make all the female racehorses present tremble. The female racehorses entering the gate were all frightened and uneasy by this aura, as if they had encountered their natural enemy.

The Golden Master was also immediately energized. However, she, who had been trembling with fear at the sight of Zhen Jiling's aura before, was now completely unafraid of it. Instead, she frowned slightly, her pupils contracted, and she became full of aggression.

"However, Karen-chan, I won't hand over victory just because of this~" A dangerous glint flashed in Makoto's eyes. Although she quickly concealed her aura, the dangerous aura still stimulated the Golden Master's nerves.

"I'm determined to win this time, Karen-chan. If you want to try, you'll have to go all out to beat me, Master."

Having said that, Zhen Jiling completely concealed his aura, revealing his usual smile as if nothing had happened, and smiled at the Gold Master:

"Well then, Karen-chan, I'll be going now. See you at the competition, Gold Master!"

Zhen Jiling waved and turned to leave. However, behind Zhen Jiling, the Golden Master's brows remained furrowed. Instead, he pulled down his mask and said calmly:

"Provocation? Do you really think I'm that stupid as to not see that you're deliberately trying to provoke me? I might not see through this tactic the first time, but do you think I'll do it again the second time?"

The Golden Master was indeed a bit simple-minded and inflexible, but she wasn't a fool. After confirming that Zhen Jiling didn't harbor any great malice towards her, she came to understand many of Zhen Jiling's actions. Zhen Jiling was simply helping her indirectly; after all, this kind of reverse psychology was more effective on the Golden Master than gentle persuasion.

The Golden Master also admitted that if she were to become angry, she would unleash unpredictable power, just like in her current state. The more her rationality evaporated, the more she could exert her strength.

However, this is not a reason for others to treat her as a fool. She is just better at unleashing her anger. She is not a Spartan warrior who only knows how to unleash Spartan rage!

"Although I can tell... this provocation really makes me uncomfortable..."

"This time, even if Ikezoe blames me, I'll show you... I'm not the kind of racehorse girl you can just manipulate."

The Gold Master muttered to herself, when suddenly someone appeared behind her. A female staff member behind her, seeing that the Gold Master was having trouble entering the gate, assumed she was having difficulty and began to force her to enter.

"Miss racehorse, please cooperate."

"Tch—I'll go in by myself, don't touch me."

The goldsmith snorted coldly, and without much gentleness, he made the staff release his grip, then entered the gate alone.

She got into her running position, recalling the key points of the race in her mind: 1200 meters, grass, and sunny weather.

So that means... she can keep sprinting until the very end!

"Bang!"

"All the racehorse girls have started! As expected of a 1200-meter race, the sprint racehorse girls all had perfect starts, without the slightest hesitation, and they displayed good speed from the very beginning."

"Oh! Something unexpected has happened! This time, the Golden Master didn't choose her signature chasing tactic, but instead opted for a fleeing horse? Is 1200 meters a piece of cake for her?"

Chapter 117: Was the shock represented by Qianming no less than a short-range burst of power?

The Golden Master actually ran away? At this moment, the commentator's words may not have alarmed the other spectators, but they definitely startled Ikezoe, who was looking worried in the stands. His eyes were fixed on the Golden Master who was rushing to the front of the team. After thinking for a while, he realized what was going on.

No, this is not a runaway horse. In Ikezoe's memory, the Golden Master has run all kinds of races, but it has never run away. The reason is simple - the Golden Master is in a good mood if it doesn't run late. How can it be so obedient as to take advantage of a runaway horse?

The Golden Master's tactics have changed, but not to the point of going from chasing horses to fleeing horses. If Ikezoe's prediction is correct, the Golden Master's current tactics should be to go first.

That's right, go first. The one that runs almost as fast as the fleeing horse goes first.

As a racehorse girl capable of long-distance running, Golden Master's stamina surpasses that of most sprint racehorse girls, but in terms of strength and explosiveness, it is slightly weaker than most sprint racehorse girls. Don't assume that sprint racehorse girls are not strong; on the contrary, the strength of sprint racehorse girls may be stronger than that of most long-distance racehorse girls.

Due to their lack of endurance, most sprint female racehorses are terrifying in terms of explosive power. In terms of explosive power over 1200 meters alone, sprint female racehorses can definitely surpass long-distance female racehorses. This is why almost no female racehorse can excel in both short and long distances; these are two unadjustable factors.

In this short-distance race, a distance of 1200 meters, most of the participating female racehorses chose tactics such as running away and taking the lead, and almost none of them chose to chase or follow the lead.

Unfortunately, they may still need to train a bit more, because the racehorse girls of the Golden Family have never lost to anyone in terms of strength.

"Surprisingly! The Golden Master took a favorable position as soon as she left the gate, and now she and Makoto are exchanging blows, with only the No. 3 racehorse ahead of them!"

"Oh, that's not bad." Qianming, the representative in the stands, was also a little surprised upon seeing this, and said with a smile:

"Among a group of sprint racehorses, she is a racehorse who is good at middle and long distances. She is actually able to occupy an advantageous position. Compared to her serious late start in the debut race, she does look much better."

"Hehe, didn't I tell you, teacher? The Golden Master is very strong." Seetabre said with a smile when she saw that her teacher had changed his opinion of her opponent.

“But that’s still a long way off, Sitabre. She still has a long way to go before she can catch up with you.” Representative Qianming glanced at his disciple who was siding with outsiders, and then immediately said, “When racing sprint horse girls, most of the slow acceleration of long-distance horse girls will hold them back. Sprint races require faster and more explosive power, which is completely different from long-distance races.”

“Middle- and long-distance races allow you to gradually get into your best form, but short-distance races don’t have that much time; you have to adjust your form quickly.”

"That's all. Taking a favorable position at the beginning is just a good start. The key is whether she can quickly unleash her full potential over the 1200-meter distance..."

Qianming said this, but her words were stuck in her throat before they could finish. As she spoke, the race had already advanced to nearly halfway through.

And this tense and brief match seems to be about to see their charge unfold in this very place.

"Not bad, Master! I didn't expect you to actually keep up!"

Zhen Jiling watched the Golden Master, who was now only slightly behind her, and was amazed by her incredible adaptability. She had transitioned from middle-distance races so quickly, mastering the essentials of short-distance races without any instruction.

Could this also be part of her potential? Zhen Jiling didn't know, but she could now sense the aura that the Golden Master was subtly exuding as he ran.

Without a doubt, this was the aura that only the Golden Master would display during his debut competition! When Zhen Jiling saw the anxious and angry emotions surging within the Golden Master at this moment, she knew that her guess was correct!

The "aura" of the master can only be unleashed through her emotions! She is completely different from other racehorse girls who can perform better under the "perfect mode" conditions. Only under these "absolutely perfect" conditions can she unleash her true potential!

No wonder Onii-chan couldn't test Gold Master's potential no matter how hard he tried. It turns out they fell into a misconception from the beginning, thinking that Gold Master was the same as other racehorse girls in terms of mood.

But they were wrong, terribly wrong. The Golden Master is not a racehorse girl who can be understood with any common sense.

Ikezoe hadn't considered this, because it was the first time he had taken care of a female racehorse in the Golden Master's image. If the Golden Master were still a racehorse, it would be easier to handle, but she wasn't a racehorse; she was a living, breathing person.

Not all racehorse girls can perform at their best when they're in a good mood; some racehorse girls are just different.

"The match has only just begun, are you going to admit defeat?" After entering the match mode, the Golden Master's personality changed drastically, just like the famous general, Raging Waves. Coupled with her already bad temper, and the provocation before the match, she seemed to be extremely aggressive at this moment.

But strangely enough, even with the Gold Master's ferocious appearance, Zhen Jiling showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, she focused her attention on what was in front of her and spoke, word by word:

"That's not necessarily true. Now, Karen-chan, I'm really going to give it my all!"

"—Then let's go!"

The Gold Master's pupils contracted sharply, and he roared without the slightest fear.

The next moment, it seemed as if the Golden Master and the True Mechanic were competing with each other. The muscles of the two racehorse girls tensed up instantly, and all the power in their bodies was unleashed at this moment!

At that moment, Chi Tian, ​​who was in the stands, also saw the illusory image of the racehorse that only he could see, which was condensed on the bodies of the Golden Master and the True Mechanic!

"That's—" Ikezoe was also slightly surprised, and subconsciously murmured, "Kallen-chan can do that too?!"

"boom!"

Almost simultaneously, both Zhenjiling and Golden Master unleashed their full power in a sprint! At that moment, they were still 600 meters away from the finish line!

"Unbelievable! Makoto and Gold Master both unleashed their power almost simultaneously! Almost simultaneously! They surged ahead and overtook Racer Girl #3! Now the entire team is left behind by the two of them! The only remaining competition is between Makoto and Gold Master!"

"Unbelievable! Makoto, who shone as a sprint girl in the Tresson Friendship Race, is now on par with Golden Master, who excels in middle-distance races! Has Golden Master regained her form? Can she conquer this race and announce her comeback?!"

"It can even match the explosive power of a sprint racehorse?"

However, at this moment, Qianming, the representative in the stands, finally became a little uneasy. Looking at the Golden Master and Zhenji, who were now about two horse lengths ahead of the teams behind them, he immediately turned to Xitabre and asked:
