“I am Alan Wertheimer, the trainer of King Kongwei. You can call me Mr. Alan.”

The old man took off his right glove, extended his right hand and gently grasped the tips of Toyama's crimson fingers, then sat down in front of the two without any hesitation:

"I've heard a little about your exploits as a team, so I'll get straight to the point—"

Two bodyguards suddenly stepped forward, took out two leather suitcases from behind, placed them on the table, and opened them, revealing a suitcase full of cash and a document:

"These are compensations for your withdrawal from the Rothschild Grand Prix."

Chapter 354 You, You've Saved Your Life [Horse Racing Girl's Words]

When Mr. Wertheimer, who called himself the Vajra Warrior trainer, approached and said those words to Stardust Illusion and Crimson Toyama in an extremely confident tone.

He didn't wait for their immediate response, but instead went on to introduce his own stakes: "Here's 500 million euros. You should know that even if you win this G1 tournament, you'll only get a prize of about 35 euros."

"And here is an agreement. I know that what the Stardust Illusion contestants want is not monetary rewards, but the feeling of challenging stronger opponents and breaking through their own limits."

"So, if you are willing to withdraw from the race, the Wertheimer family will invite another world-class runner to participate in other races that you are attending."

Wertheimer held up the document and showed it to the two men. It contained detailed terms and conditions for inviting them to participate in a French G1-level event, while the name of the event was left blank, clearly indicating that it could be filled in at any time.

The invitee's name was already prominently displayed on the sign: Dubai Millennium.

Alan was confident that he had considered everything very thoroughly, taking into account both the racehorse girl's desire to win and the trainer's pursuit of practical benefits. The conditions he offered left the other party with no reason to refuse.

As Vajra's trainer, he was certainly not the type to disregard his own thoughts and only consider so-called interests.

But this Rothschild tournament is special!

……

Two years ago.

"Having been hailed as the star of Deauville, and with his achievement of consecutive Rothschild titles, what are your thoughts?"

The blonde girl, Jin Gangwei, with a beaming smile, waved enthusiastically to all the reporters below the stage, her excitement overflowing.

"This is the most beautiful city I've ever seen. It's so wonderful to have achieved consecutive victories at this Deauville racetrack! If possible, I hope to live here forever!"

"Oh, I didn't expect that Jin Gangwei would have such a high opinion of Dowell."

The local reporter was quite pleased to see the city receiving such high praise, and then followed up with a question: "So, if there's another opportunity next year, will King Kong Wei choose to challenge the Rothschild Grand Prix again?"

"Shall we continue the challenge...?" Jin Gangwei played with the small braid at his temple and exchanged a glance with the trainer beside him who was taking care of him like a grandfather.

The encouragement and trust in the trainer's eyes instilled courage in her, and she immediately smiled.

"Of course! And three consecutive wins aren't enough... We must achieve an unprecedented four consecutive G1 race wins at this racetrack. I don't think I can't do it!"

The young woman, full of youthful vigor, raised a finger and made this declaration to the camera.

As it turns out, she did indeed possess that ability.

Under the guidance of trainer Alan Wertheimer, victory in G1-level matches was as easy as picking candy from a baby for this girl named Jin Gangwei.

In just two years, she won a total of 14 G1 races, making her the runner with the most G1 races in Europe.

However, it also brought a fair share of criticism.

[While G1 is indeed G1... in the last two years, it seems that Kongou-Wei has been avoiding Saima Girl, who is also a strong fighter?]

[Furthermore, she participated in several G1-level matches repeatedly, so the claim of having the most G1 wins is highly inflated.]

[They say he won the Rothschild title three times in a row because he liked the scenery of Deauville, but isn't the real reason it was because the tournament was between the Paris Grand Prix and the Arc de Triomphe, so the competition wasn't too tough and he could easily take advantage of the lower difficulty?]

I used to like King Kong Wei, but isn't he just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong?

Just watch, even if she persists in this escapist approach, there will definitely be a powerful figure who tears off their facade!

Over the years, Alan has heard countless similar questions and accusations.

Although Jin Gangwei has always maintained that she understands the race schedule arranged by the trainer and has not been affected by such public opinion, she believes that as a racehorse girl, she only needs to focus on running.

But Alan knew that she was constantly bothered by these words and was trying to perform better to prove herself.

(What a joke... A bunch of clueless paparazzi, don't you dare criticize my most important person!!!)

Alan wanted nothing more than to spend money to hire some assassins to shoot these guys one by one, but in the end he suppressed his anger and focused on continuing to devote himself to King Kong's training and competition schedule.

From the day he adopted Jin Gangwei, he knew that this child definitely had the potential to become a world-class runner, so he began to nurture her as his granddaughter and paved the perfect path for her to become a legend.

Having already secured the title of King of Horses in Europe, those guys no longer dared to criticize King Kong in the slightest. The final step was yet to come—

It began with Rothschild and it ended with Rothschild.

King Kong's running career should end with this legendary achievement: four consecutive victories. This is his long-planned legendary farewell, and also his last gift to this girl.

—That's how it should have been.

However, this monster suddenly appeared out of nowhere this year!

Alan looked at the stardust illusion before him, a hint of fear hidden deep in his eyes.

Unlike those ignorant media professionals, even when Stardust Illusion openly provokes King Kongwei, the old man remains calm.

After detailed analysis, Alan can confirm one fact:

That is, Stardust Illusion is by no means an arrogant, ignorant, or weakling.

On the contrary, the fact that she was able to defeat Cai Zhi Gao with a huge advantage in the G1-level Paris tournament shows that this girl's strength can definitely be called world-class.

Logically speaking, King Kong Wei has already achieved great success and become a generation of horse kings, so he doesn't need to be afraid of Stardust Illusion, who is just a rising star.

But... Alan wouldn't dare gamble on something like that!

Just how powerful is Stardust Illusion?

Was that all the ability she displayed in that match?

If Jin Gangwei were to compete against her, would victory truly be guaranteed?

Just thinking about these possibilities terrified Alan.

Then, he made this decision:

(Jin Gangwei's retirement must not end in failure... Her career should end with her unprecedented achievement of four consecutive championships, surrounded by cheers and applause!)

"Well, what's your decision?" Alan asked, taking the initiative since the two of them still hadn't answered.

Accept my terms; there's nothing for you two to lose, it's absolutely a win-win deal.

Toyama Scarlet glanced at Stardust Illusion, confirmed the expression on her face, and then revealed a wicked smile. She leaned back and simply let the girl take the lead in the conversation.

"I have a question."

The Stardust Illusion's usual satisfied smile after meals had completely vanished, replaced by an inscrutable seriousness.

"Does runner Jin Gangwei know about this?"

"This has nothing to do with the transaction, does it?"

Alan naturally wouldn't answer such a question. After all, if she lied and said that King Kong Wei already knew, it would damage her reputation. But if she answered that she didn't know, the other party might meddle and go to King Kong Wei to tell him.

In any case, it would not benefit either him or King Kongwei.

"No, this is important."

Just then, Alan suddenly felt a chill envelop him, and then he saw a pair of indifferent and cold eyes.

The four burly men behind him also noticed something amiss and rushed forward to pull him away from the Stardust Illusion. However, the racehorse girl only slightly raised her head and glanced at him, and they immediately stopped in their tracks. A moment of trepidation swept through everyone present.

That's right.

Alan understood why the moment was so terrifying.

Because those eyes seemed to be staring at a dead person, completely devoid of any human emotion.

A wild, chilling killing intent spoke of a self-evident truth, and even though the stardust illusion didn't continue speaking, Alan understood what it wanted to say:

If you don't answer that question properly...

I'll kill you.

Those crimson, flame-like eyes flickered with a faint blue light before him, growing ever stronger. The racehorse girl before him began to exude an intense presence that was impossible to look away from…

Despite it being the sweltering heat of August, Alan and his bodyguards suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold. The domain of the cold wave spread outwards from the stardust illusion at its center, instantly transporting them into a snow-covered wonderland.

"This matter has nothing to do with you!"

Alan clenched his teeth and forced the words out of his mouth.

He realized that, for whatever reason, his sudden arrival had angered the racehorse girl before him.

Especially the aura she exudes now due to her anger is so powerful that it's chilling.

But this also means that she can indeed pose a significant threat to Jin Gangwei, and may even bring her career to a regretful end!

"If...the conditions are not satisfactory...we can...talk..."

"The horse girl attacked...humans...the consequences...you can't bear them..."

With a heavy heart, Alan turned to Scarlet Toyama for help, hoping that by leveraging the global regulations governing Uma Musume, she could persuade Stardust Illusion to stop.

After all, if a racehorse girl were to injure someone, it wouldn't just be a matter of being permanently disqualified from competing; she might even be stripped of her racehorse girl status and barred from participating in any race-related activities.

As racehorse girls, their strength is many times greater than that of ordinary people. Coupled with their competitive spirit and fighting will cultivated through races, it is no surprise that these girls might do irrational things due to impulsiveness.

In such situations, trainers need to use their close relationship with the horses to act as a restraint, preventing them from going berserk and doing something irreversible.

(By then, this promising talent will have no choice but to give up her dream and find another way to make a living... Aren't you going to stop her?!)

However, as soon as Alan turned to this foreign colleague for help, he realized that he was completely wrong.

Hikari Toyama, who was standing to the side, had already picked up the empty plate and a large soup spoon from the table with great interest and walked towards Alan with a villainous smile on her face.

(This guy isn't a control device for the horse girl at all... she's totally having a blast!)

The terrifying aura emanating from the stardust illusion still pressed down on them, rendering these grown men completely immobile. They could only watch helplessly as the madwoman drew closer and closer.

"It's certainly intolerable for racehorses to hurt people, but if I take care of it, there won't be a problem, right? Hahahaha!"

Hiren Toyama laughed wildly and raised the iron plate in her hand, issuing her final ultimatum:

"Hey, don't do anything reckless! You're her trainer. Even if she didn't lay a hand on you, you'll still be severely punished!"

Alan cried out in terror, his fear so intense that he momentarily broke free from the constraints of the stardust illusion's aura.
