Uma Musume Girl, I'll tell you about my Santa Hat special move too?

"At the same time, one of your running techniques will break through the original limit and become a unique field-level technology."

"However, on the other hand, this field can only be activated when you reach the climax of the competition, and it is not actually controlled by your own willpower. You are just enjoying the super-strong boost that this field brings."

Upon hearing this, Stardust Illusion couldn't help but nod.

What Hikari Toyama was referring to was her experience of opening up these areas several times.

At the first Japan-France exchange competition, she pioneered a new realm by combining three running styles: Victory Shooting, Curve Expert, and Miracle Runner of Holy Night, creating a brand-new unique skill: Sonic Shooting.

The second time was at the Yomiuri Mile. Under the extraordinary pressure of Aotake's memories, Stardust Illusion once again stepped into the realm with just the technique of "Victory Motivation". Afterwards, he did feel that his understanding of this running style had deepened a lot.

The third time was at the Yayoi Sho competition, where she competed against Tosho Reform in the final 200 meters.

The combination of Shrinking Earth, Miracle Runner of the Holy Night, and Victory Shot, and its subsequent sublimation, grants Stardust Illusion a third chance to experience the realm.

But... Toyama said that this is just the beginning of the field?

"So what's next?"

Megumi McQueen was also hearing about this for the first time.

While Nishizaki Ryu usually takes good care of everyone in the team, he doesn't encourage the players to activate their domains at will, so he hasn't explained this aspect clearly.

Hearing Hikari Toyama's explanation, she couldn't help but want to continue asking questions.

"Haha—next up is Rudolph, the symbol of that old bee, the real level he's at. I wouldn't tell just anyone, but this time it's only because McQueen, you've always made things convenient for the Stardust Illusion." Scarlet Toyama laughed triumphantly, hands on her hips.

"—Don't be rude to the president!"

Then, just as she was about to continue explaining, an unexpected voice interrupted her abruptly.

The vice president of the Treson Student Council lifted the curtain of the adjacent bathroom and carried a basin into the lounge.

A hint of displeasure flashed across her exquisitely beautiful face:

"Toyama Hikari, how dare you slander the chairman in a place like this!"

Haha... Everyone's here?

Rudolf, who followed the air tank into the lounge, didn't seem to mind Toyama Hiiro's rudeness and even greeted everyone cheerfully.

"President! If we don't take this seriously, it will only encourage the unhealthy practices of people like Hikari Toyama!"

"Alright, don't be too tense. We're just regular customers at the bathhouse right now, so relax."

Rudolph patted the air tank on the shoulder to calm him down, then stood in the center of the lounge and looked at everyone.

A moment later, she suddenly held up a finger and asked everyone, "Have you ever played a card game called Yu-Gi-Oh!? Actually, there's a master-level player in the academy who no one can beat. Do you know who it is?"

Everyone present (except for the Stardust Illusion) felt a cold air rapidly approaching them, but before they could react, Rudolf's Symbol continued speaking:

"It's a famous general's furious outburst, hahahahaha!"

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!

Suddenly, someone next to them laughed even louder than Rudolf, startling everyone.

Turning my head, I saw the Stardust Illusion collapse to the ground, gasping for breath, clutching its stomach and crouching down, while whimpering laughter escaped its lips.

"Hahahaha... It's... It's actually... Hahahaha... A famous general angrily pulls out... Hahahaha... Angrily pulls out, it really is hahahahaha!"

"real or fake?"

McQueen looked at everyone present with a pleading expression, wanting to confirm whether his failure to understand the joke was due to a lack of comprehension.

"I never expected that you, Stardust Illusion, would have such a high level of appreciation!"

Rudolf observed the girl carefully, made a judgment to confirm that she wasn't acting, and then praised her with satisfaction.

Then she looked at Hikari Toyama and asked:

Were you just talking about the domain?

"Ah, I'm explaining the specific classifications within the field to them."

Hikari Toyama showed no awareness of being caught talking behind someone's back, remaining completely at ease and showing no remorse whatsoever.

"In that case, let me explain it to you."

Rudolf said this, then found a seat and sat down:

“Stardust Illusion, the realm you and Dongshang Transformation are currently in, I call the ‘Opening Eyes’ stage. In this stage, you will indeed have a leapfrog improvement, and it will also have a crushing effect on runners who have no realm.”

"However, this does not mean that the end has come—above the [Opening Eyes], there is another realm... called [Shattered Stars]."

"Broken Star?"

Stardust Illusion finally straightened up, only to hear another inexplicable term.

She scratched her head, gave up thinking, and asked directly:

"I can understand 'opening the eyes,' which refers to the sight of battle qi overflowing from the eye sockets after an explosion. But where did you get the name 'shattered star' from?"

"In the legend of the Three Goddesses... only the most elite racehorse girls can possess that most powerful force... the power known as the Domain. These racehorse girls are all runners who can lead an era; they are the greatest masterpieces created by the Three Goddesses..."

Do you know why the trainers at Central Teresen Academy are all named after constellations and stars?

At this point, Rudolf looked into Toyama's crimson eyes:

"That's because every racehorse girl who owns a domain will light up a star in the constellation of the sky... her own destiny star. The destiny star is not only a symbol of your domain, but also represents the constancy of your fate as a racehorse girl."

"Your team name is Draco, right? That means that Crimson Toyama had already asked the three goddesses for guidance from Apocalypse."

"Stardust Illusion, your destiny star is that one: Right Pivot Alpha!"

"Right pivot... Alpha?"

The stardust illusion repeated itself subconsciously, then looked seriously in the direction of Rudolf's symbol and asked:

What kind of star is Right Pivot Alpha?

"..."

"..."

"You should at least know something about astronomy! How come you haven't even looked at the constellations of your own team?!"

Seeing everyone's speechless yet silent expressions, Qi Cao, who had been standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

She pulled out paper and pen from who-knows-where and drew a star chart of the Draco constellation on the spot, then pointed to the main star at the tail and said:

"This is it, one of the five main stars of the Draco constellation!"

"oh oh……"

Stardust Illusion chuckled and took the paper, intending to find someone one night to help identify which star it was.

"Let's get back to the main point. The so-called Shattered Star Realm... means that you need to personally destroy the life star that represents the domain."

"Only by truly achieving this can Saima Musume truly break free from her own destiny."

After saying this, Rudolf stood up and walked out with the gas tank.

"Don't worry, I will tell the Emperor about these things. Then you can put aside all your worries and fight to the end!"

"Among this generation of classic triple crown winners, can a racehorse girl surpass the miracle be born? I... am looking forward to it."

Chapter 198 Welcome to the Planetarium

The following night.

Having promised Scarlet Toyama and Super Stream that he would no longer have extra training, Stardust Illusion went back to his dormitory after having dinner in the cafeteria today.

To be honest, judging from her current strength, she is indeed a cut above the East Sea Emperor who watched the match a few days ago.

However, from McQueen's commentary, Stardust Vision could sense that the Emperor definitely did not unleash his full spiritual power in that match.

This doesn't mean that the emperor was arrogant and underestimated his opponent, failing to give his all. Rather, it means that Stardust Illusion didn't seem to have the same determination to win even if it meant surpassing himself in that match.

That was something she sensed during her debut match—the true reliance of the Emperor on her undefeated three-crown victory—her extraordinary fighting spirit.

As long as the competition continues, anyone has a chance to win.

This is the philosophy that Stardust Illusion has always adhered to, but from another perspective, it also means that as long as the competition is not over, she could be defeated by someone else's sudden burst of power no matter what.

Especially the Emperor of the East Sea, who himself is full of infinite possibilities...

"Practicing like this always makes people feel uncertain..."

Stardust Illusion walked along the road, adjusting his weighted suit with a somewhat helpless expression.

She knew, of course, that training alone wouldn't allow her to quickly reach a level where others couldn't defeat her, but she was always a little afraid if she didn't train.

She was afraid that at the Satsuki Sho, she and the other contestants would relive the scene from their debut battle.

To lose the entire game because of a tiny difference.

However, promises made to others are also things that cannot be broken...

"Forget it, let's think of another way."

Stardust Illusion shook his head, dismissing the thought.

The sky had darkened, and the moon and twinkling lights gradually appeared in the sky.

That was the light of the bright, twinkling stars in the sky.

Seeing this, Stardust Illusion couldn't help but recall that day in the bath, when Toyama Scarlet and Rudolf symbolized the interpretation of the realm.

Destiny Star, and the Shattered Star Realm?

She originally thought that her recent domain power had proven that Stardust Illusion had entered the ranks of top runners, but she did not expect that there was still a gap to cross next.

Looking up, the stardust illusion reveals stars scattered across the night sky, arranged in various shapes, which are known as constellations.

According to Rudolf's symbolism, her ruling planet was already responding to the main planet of Draco the moment she entered the realm.

(so……)

The stardust illusion paused, gazing at the sky, searching for the location of Draco...

After a long while, she looked away, sighed, and lowered her head to walk forward again.
