I, the horse racing girl, really didn’t sprint!

Shouldn't I be on top?

We can’t do this. At least we can’t lose in terms of momentum!!! It’s our duty as horse racing girls to restore the glory of the Chinese people!

Next time, if there is a next time, I will definitely be the one wearing the groom’s suit!

I can't lose if I'm betting on the dignity of my phantom limb!

In an instant, countless strange declarations appeared in Barbatos's mind and took the initiative, causing her to reach out and grab Nebula Sky's hand. "Hello, my prince, would you like to go to the cultural festival with me?"

When facing the person they like, Uma Musume often becomes omnipotent, even if they themselves do not admit it.

Nebula Sky never thought that Barbatos was so brave and felt the touch on his hand.

Feeling the warmth of Barbatos's palm, she pursed her lips and nodded softly, not refusing the invitation to go out to the cultural festival dressed like this.

Although the two of them were originally visiting the cultural festival together.

But now it’s different, not only because Xingyun Tiankong changed his clothes, but also because of the hand that was holding him.

It feels like we are more lovers than friends.

When Barbatos held her hand, Xingyun Tiankong's face couldn't help but blush, and they left the Prince Cafe together.

In the coffee shop.

Fuji Miracle, who had just returned from serving coffee to customers with Xingyun Tiankong, frowned and sighed, "It's great to be young."

Good Opera, who happened to be passing by her, tapped her on the shoulder and asked, "So you're planning on going back home to get married after four more races?"

"?"

I didn't understand the Fuji Miracle watch formula, but I was deeply shocked.

When did she ever say that she would go back to her hometown to get married after running 4 more shows!!!

……

Barbatos held Xingyun Tiankong's hand and walked out of the Prince Cafe. She didn't expect that she would become so brave in such a short moment.

But I have already grabbed it, so if I let go now, wouldn’t it seem too cowardly? Besides, Nebula Sky doesn’t seem to be resisting.

Although the gripping posture was not correct and it was not cross-locked like in TV dramas, it still felt soft and comfortable.

Holding Xingyun Tiankong's hand seemed to be more satisfying than holding the S-League trophy. Although she had not yet participated in the League of Legends professional league, she had this feeling.

It was as if... it was as if she was not grabbing the hand of the nebula sky, but the whole world.

I seem to like her.

The moment this thought popped into my mind.

Barbatos, the master of love, realized what a remarkable thing she was doing. She actually grabbed the hand of her favorite horse girl.

Boom, boom, boom, the noise of the cultural festival around seemed to be muted.

All she could hear was her own heartbeat and the warm touch of his hand.

Should I let go of my hand? If I do, will it make people feel guilty?

But if I don’t let go, will Xingyun Tiankong’s favorability towards me decrease?

Reality is not a love strategy game. You cannot see the degree of affection between each other. You can only guess and think about it bit by bit. You can never truly understand the other person's thoughts until the other person expresses his or her feelings.

Maybe Nebula Sky changed into the prince's outfit just for fun?

Maybe she was nervous about holding hands simply because she wasn't used to holding hands with Uma Musume yet?

Neither of them spoke for a while, each walking around the cultural festival as if they had their own thoughts.

Barbatos grabbed Xingyun Tiankong's little hand, and his mind was mostly occupied by the place where their skin touched. Sweat was secreted from his palms because of excitement and nervousness. He was extremely excited and nervous.

She completely ignored the surrounding scenery and the shops she passed by.

People around could see a handsome prince and a horse girl wearing the Tressen Academy uniform from afar.

Their hands can be seen clasped together, the "Prince's" face is blushing, and his eyes seem a little vague.

The horse racing girl in the standard school uniform was not as reserved as the "prince" and smiled like a husky.

Only when they got closer and the people around them saw the two people's faces clearly, they were able to recognize that they were the protagonists of tomorrow's relay race, the popular Barbatos and the Nebula Sky who won the debut race by more than 10 lengths.

Are they actually a couple?

Among the crowd, the Emperor of the East China Sea, who was about to greet everyone, suddenly stopped.

For a moment, she felt a surge of envy in her heart. She wished she could also visit the cultural festival with the president like this.

It was not until Barbatos had walked an unknown distance that his inner thoughts and the excitement and nervousness of going out for the first time holding Nebula Sky's hand finally calmed down a little.

Looking at the road in front of me, I didn’t know where I was going for a moment.

It was so embarrassing. When I was holding Xingyun Tiankong's little hand, I didn't pay attention to the road for a moment. Fortunately, I didn't bump into Uma Musume or anything on the road.

The nebula sky beside me lowered its head, as if counting ants on the ground, and its facial expression could not be seen clearly.

Looking around, they tried to find a topic to break the silent atmosphere, and there happened to be a milk tea shop not far away from them.

Uma girls generally seldom drink milk tea, because although milk tea tastes good, it can also easily cause weight gain, and if not consumed in moderation it can easily affect their performance in future competitions.

Normally, I only treat myself to a drink on rare occasions.

She shook the little hand she had held, "...I'll treat you to milk tea."

After hearing these words, Xingyun Tiankong still did not look up. He was not as bold as before and just nodded softly.

I shouldn't have changed into prince's clothes.

……

Beef Noodles - Sanliuqi Erer Temple Scar Si Big Eater Challenge.

"Congratulations to Xiaolimao for successfully crossing the finish line with 1511 bowls of beef noodles, defeating the dark horse contestant, Tebi Zhou, by 2 bowls to win the championship!"

At this time, Xiaolimao and Te Bie Zhou already had bellies that were even bigger than those of a ten-month pregnancy, and they could no longer eat anything more.

Chapter 89: Substitute - Tamamo Cross (Fourth Update) (39 Chapters Owed)

"Is Oguruma unable to participate in tomorrow's competition because he ate too much?"

In the student union.

Qicao remained silent about this matter for a long time, and his heart was really unable to calm down. Even if it was not a formal competition, this was the first time in history that someone could not compete because of overeating.

It is unprecedented and probably will never be surpassed.

And according to her understanding, who could have forced Oguruma into this situation?

Even Daishu Express, who is the biggest eater in Rigil, can't eat as much as Ogururo.

"It's special week."

As if sensing Qi Cao's confusion, Rudolph explained symbolically, "Oguruma, Tokusho, and Daishu Express participated in the Competitive Eater Challenge."

"The special week is only two bowls away from Xiaolimao, and I won two moves by eating 1509 bowls of beef noodles."

Listen to this amazing number of bowls.

Qi Cao seemed to be hesitant to speak. It wasn't that she didn't want to say something, but for some reason, even though she was known as the empress, she couldn't help but feel like complaining.

I even want to watch the video replay of this competitive eating contest.

A bowl of beef noodles, no matter how small the bowl is, is enough for a whole meal for Uma Musume with a small appetite. In other words, the food that Uma Musume with a small appetite could eat for a year and a half was eaten up in one go by Oguruma and Tokusho.

If the strength of a horse girl is proportional to her appetite, then Tokushou is definitely the horse girl second only to Oguruma.

As the empress, what kind of storms and waves has she not seen?

But I've never seen anything like this before. With great difficulty, I calmed myself down and asked, "President, are you planning to cancel tomorrow's relay race?"

According to her understanding of Rudolph's symbolism, since Kurofsky cannot participate in the competition, they will most likely cancel the relay race and make a formal apology to the outside world to resolve this matter.

Rudolph, sitting in his seat with his arms folded across his chest, smiled a rare smile and said, "The relay race will go on as usual."

"However, as the last of the Heisei Three Heroes, the Oguri hat has been replaced with the Tamamo cross. I will also apologize to the public and explain this matter on the Treson official website."

Qi Cao wanted to object, but finally sighed.

Because of the Heisei Three Heroes' relay race tomorrow, I don't know how many people have made vacation reservations in advance to come to the cultural festival of Tresen Academy to watch the game.

Today's young audiences often come to see the legendary horse racing girl, Oguruma.

With this kind of temporary substitution the day before the game, one can imagine the huge pressure that Rudolph, as the president, had to bear.

The only thing to be thankful for is that even if Oguruma cannot participate in the competition, there are still Barbatos and Condor who can stabilize the audience who come to watch the game.

only……

"Is Tamamo Cross's body alright?"

"If it's just one race, there won't be any problem."

……

In a restaurant somewhere.

Young college students were having dinner together, and a young couple was looking at the latest news from Tresen Academy on their mobile phones.

"Oguruma's condition has temporarily changed, so he can't participate in the relay race. Will Tamamo Cross take the third baton?"

Because it was too unexpected, the boy read out the content of the message.

They were the couple under the Ferris wheel. When they learned that Barbatos was going to participate in the relay race at the cultural festival, they had already booked a trip to watch the competition at Tresen Academy.

The friends who had watched the Barbatos game with them before will also come with them and plan to leave for Kyoto after dinner today.

Prepare to watch in advance the ultimate showdown between Barbatos and the legendary horse girl.

But now, suddenly, they were told that Xiao Limao couldn't participate in the competition? A temporary substitution? This made them feel a little uncomfortable.

The friends next to him were also stunned when they heard the news.

But they didn't care. They didn't go to watch the Ogurashi. They had just come into contact with the Uma Musume competition. When they were dragged to watch the Barbatos competition, they were shocked and became fans of Barbatos.

This time I went to Tresen Academy just to watch Barbatos' game.

"Isn't it a good thing that that little Kuroneko isn't participating? You even said that with Kuroneko around, Barbatos might not win."

"Yeah, in that case, Barbatos will definitely win, right?"

In their eyes, Barbatos, who was able to surpass the second Umamusume by more than ten horse lengths at that time, was almost invincible. Didn’t people on the Internet say that Barbatos was a legend as soon as he debuted?

If the opponent is not the legendary horse girl, who can be the opponent of Barbatos?

The young couple nodded in agreement. At first they just couldn't accept Ogurt's sudden withdrawal, but now it seems that this might be a good thing. What's more, Barbatos will also meet Ogurt in the Winter Dream Cup.

This will give Barbatos more time to become stronger!

One of the friends asked curiously, "Speaking of which, who is this Tamamo Cross? Is she... powerful?"

I've seen people online talking about Oguruma as being amazing, so the Uma Musume who can take her place shouldn't be too bad.

The young couple looked at each other and shook their heads.

"We haven't heard of it either. It should be a Uma Musume from the Heisei era."

"However, since the Heisei Three Heroes refer to Oguruma, Super Bay, and Inari, then Tamamo Cross must not be more powerful than them."

Justified and convincing.

One of them thought about it, reached out and took out his mobile phone to search the Internet for information about Tamamo Cross.

If you don't know how powerful Tamamo Cross is, then as a fan of Barbatos, watching the game will feel like something is missing even if you see Barbatos win.

Just as he was about to open the search software, the phone rang from his cell phone.

Click to see the word "Grandpa" on it.

Considering that the people present were all good friends with whom he had a good relationship, he did not deliberately leave, but directly answered the phone.

"grandfather."

"Why is your voice a little choked? Did something happen?"

"fine?"

"Yes, I'm not in class."

"Shinkansen to Kyoto? Yes, I'll check and book your tickets later."
