Tresen's five horses tore me apart

"Well...if I'm the one making a request, come to my room tonight."

"what?"

"Hey, what are you thinking about? Didn't I say before that I wanted to try out your massage technique? Now that the derby is over, you should be less busy, right? It's a good opportunity for me to try it out."

Qian Ming smiled and hooked his arm around Bai Le's shoulders, lowering his body a little, and leaning in to talk with an expression of having succeeded in playing a prank on his face.

"Well, no problem, no problem. I'll go back and prepare it, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"In that case, I'm really looking forward to it. Okay, here I am in my room. Don't get the wrong number. See you later."

The next moment, everything returned to normal. She waved her hand gracefully and turned to go into the house.

Bai Le walked forward a few steps, arrived at Xiaoyu's room and started knocking on the door.

"It's me, Xiaoyu. Open the door."

In a few seconds, the door opened.

"Trainer, I remember there shouldn't be any this morning... Hey, who were you with just now?"

"You're definitely not going to believe this, but I just ran into Representative Qian Ming. She's also here for recuperation, and she said since we happened to meet, we might as well take a look at the cooperation contract and get ready to sign it."

"Huh? Senior Qian Ming?"

The reed-haired ponygirl looked incredulous.

"Is it strange? Qianming is also a horse girl, so it's normal for her to come here for recuperation."

"That's true, but I still feel like something's not right. Shouldn't a rich guy like Qianming rent out a private hot spring?"

"Xiaoyu, you are considered a rich person now. Would you like to book the whole place?"

"No, the hot springs here are pretty good, and they even reimburse me and offer discounts."

Tamamo Cross said without hesitation.

"That's right, there are reimbursements and discounts, so why do we have to book the whole place?"

"It seems... that's true. Anyway, trainer, be careful. Don't get tricked, and don't agree to any weird conditions."

"Xiaoyu, you reminded her before, but in the end, nothing happened. You must be worrying too much, Xiaoyu. But you can take this opportunity to ask her if she has any suggestions for the chrysanthemum viewing."

"I don't want to ask. If I do, I'll feel like I'll owe you a favor. Trainer, you always agree to some weird conditions."

……

"The Chrysanthemum Competition, if you want to put it simply, it's all about strength. The Chrysanthemum Competition is a stage for the truly strong. Speed, endurance, determination, perseverance, and composure—none of them are missing. It's a 3,000-meter race, so there's no room for tricks."

Representative Qian Ming seemed to recall the past and said with some regret.

"The so-called strongest horse girl wins the Chrysanthemum Award?"

"That's right, Bai Le-kun and Tamamo-san. The Chrysanthemum Appreciation doesn't require any special skills or experience. The only test is whether you are powerful enough in all aspects."

"It seems that after the vacation is over, I have to continue working hard, Xiao Yu."

"We know."

Tamamo Cross rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"Phew, it seems like you two are getting along really well. Get ready! I'm also looking forward to the birth of a new Triple Crown Uma Musume."

Seeing this scene, Representative Qian Ming also smiled.

“I can only say I’ll do my best.”

"Actually, I'm quite optimistic. In this generation, there are almost no horse girls who can rival Tamamo Cross. If she masters that, even ancient horses won't be many who can surpass her. As long as nothing unexpected happens, the Chrysanthemum Award is a sure thing."

"Um...you mean, that special accelerated state?"

"Yes, Tamamo-san told you that?"

"She said she saw some kind of vision, and then her abilities were instantly enhanced. I think Sakura Chiyo-sama should have experienced the same. Is this a special ability like some kind of domain?"

Bai Le asked.

Xiaoyu naturally told him about this situation in private, but Bai Le checked a lot of information and couldn't find any relevant content. The most he knew was that in past competitions, there would occasionally be horse girls that burst out with extraordinary power, but everyone was very secretive about the specific content.

"That's about right. You could call it a domain, too. There's no definitive answer to that yet. Actually, I didn't expect your commitment to really go this far, or that you could actually train her to this level."

Representative Qian Ming snapped his fingers and said.

"Chiaki, do you know something? If Uma Musume knew about this power, why isn't there any written record of it?"

“Because the more you know, the less you have.”

"What do you mean?"

"A domain, let's call it that. It's the result of the blossoming of spiritual will during an explosion. And only those Uma Musume who also possess a domain can feel it. Others will only think it's a more powerful explosive technique, but that's not the case. It's not a technique."

"As for why there's no written record, it's because based on experience, those Umamusume who deliberately aim to reach the realm of power don't actually possess it. It's only those who are completely unaware that they have a chance. I think it's because their intentions are often less pure than their own. That's why I didn't tell you this at the beginning, because it might actually be harmful."

"Well, that's very possible."

Bai Le nodded.

193

Chapter 193 The less you have.

If we look at the effect alone, Domain is a technology that consumes less energy than Explosion but has better effects.

Of course, in reality, the physical energy consumed by opening the field is not small, and the energy and spirit of the horse girl are also consumed more. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

However, when it comes to a showdown, those in certain fields must be strong.

Uma Musume competitions often involve a fight for a few tenths of a second. Once the realm is opened, even if Tamamo Cross explodes, he cannot catch up with Sakura Chiyo. If Tamamo herself had not entered that realm shortly afterwards, the derby champion would not have to be tied.

"Tamamo Cross has already opened the door to the domain on its own, so it doesn't matter. But Bai Lejun, this situation cannot be told to those who have not yet opened their domains. You know the consequences, so I won't emphasize it."

Representative Qian Ming's expression was unexpectedly serious when he talked about this.

"I understand, and I will keep this matter strictly confidential."

So Bai Le nodded seriously.

In this way, he understood why he had not been able to find any information before. Logically speaking, this state should not only be achieved by Tamamo Cross and Sakura Chiyo. Now it seems that this is the symbol of the top horse girl. If you have to say it, it is probably the ticket to the Triple Crown.

"Actually, Captain Tsubasa is similar. Based on her talent, she should have been the first one in your generation, but..."

Representative Qian Ming shook his head with some regret.

"Her running style is too aggressive, and her body can't keep up. Luckily, I kept Xiaoyu healthy, otherwise she might have to be hospitalized after the derby."

Bai Le spread his hands.

"Heh, that's quite impressive of you. Tamamo-san is indeed in great shape."

"By the way, how many horse girls achieve enlightenment every year?"

"To be honest, there are still three or five every year. Sometimes more, sometimes less. So far this year, there have only been two. Maybe by the end of the year there will be more."

"So this is your responsibility, Representative Qianming?"

Bai Le looked at the free horse girl and asked suddenly.

"Duty? Well, there's a point to that. We seniors always have to do something. But if you think I approached you two because of something like this, it's really heartbreaking, Le. You actually doubted our friendship when you agreed to always accompany me to see Kabuki performances."

Representative Qian Ming replied calmly.

When Xiaoyu heard this, the hair on her ears stood up.

"Why shouldn't I go? It just suddenly occurred to me. After all, it's bound to be strange at first. Triple Crown racehorse girls coming to help a newcomer like me, and the underdog Ash-haired racehorse girls, it's impossible to say I have no doubts at all. I think it's best to explain it clearly as soon as possible."

"Humph, that's really your style. Anyway, now that everything is clear, do you want to break up with me, Ale?"

There was a sad expression on the handsome face of this horse racing girl, and she even looked a little pitiful.

"Are you kidding me? Are you approaching us with bad intentions?"

Bai Le shook his head.

"Hey, Ale, that's the best thing about you."

Then the horse racing girl laughed.

……

"In short, I think there should be no problem with the general content of the contract."

After the casual chat, it was time to get down to business. Bai Le nodded after reading the contract.

"I think so too, no problem."

Tamamo Cross also nodded.

"That's good. I'll just go back and go through the formalities and sign at the school's notary office. Ha—ah."

Representative Qian Ming stretched and his voice became lazy.

"Since it's getting late and we've finished our work, let's end today's contract discussion here."

She winked at Bai Le.

"Okay, let's go back and rest, Trainer."

Tamamo Cross jumped up quickly, grabbed Bai Le's yukata and walked out.

"Goodbye, Senior Qian Ming."

She even said hello politely.

"Goodbye, Tamamo-san, and Shiraku-kun, don't forget what I told you."

At the call, Bai Le was pulled out of Representative Qian Ming's room by the person in charge.

"It's done, it's done. Go to bed early, trainer."

Tamamo Cross grabbed Bai Le's clothes and walked out. After he went out, he did not stop and pulled him back into his room.

"Xiaoyu, is there anything else?"

"Trainer, be careful. I have a feeling that Senior Qian Ming has something else to say."

The girl said worriedly.

"What else could it be? Look, now we've even answered the question of why she was paying attention to us in the first place."

Bai Le scratched his hair, unable to understand what Dandan was worried about.

Now this question has been answered. It cannot be said that the other party was completely kind-hearted. In short, it did have a bit of a mission-like feel to it. However, a mission is a mission, and the help was real, so the favor must be accepted.

After thinking about this logic, what else can Representative Qianming do?

Bai Le felt that the friendship between the two was still quite trustworthy, and being suspicious was not a good thing.

"I don't know either. Anyway, anyway..."

"Anyway, just rest and take good care of yourself. Then we'll prepare for the Chrysanthemum Festival and win the Triple Crown title. Once you have that title, maybe it'll be your turn to mentor the younger generation. Just think about that, isn't that pretty?"

Someone ruffled Xiaoyu's hair and said with a smile.

"Well, that's true."

After hearing this, Tamamo Cross felt a little happier.

"Okay, have a good rest. If nothing else, I'll go back to my room first."

"Well, the trainers need to rest as well."

"definitely."

Bai Le returned to the room and began to prepare things.

Since he brought Tamamo Cross with him for treatment, his massage equipment was naturally complete and packed in a bag. He had taken out some of it because he gave it to Xiaoyu every day, and now he had to put it all back and pack it up.

Then, let Representative Qianming show some real skills and beat her to death.

After packing up his equipment and taking a massage cloth, Bai Le headed towards Representative Qian Ming's room.

He knocked on the door gently, and soon, the door opened.

"Oh, you have quite a lot of stuff. Come in."

Representative Qian Ming looked at the bag in someone's hand, raised his eyebrows, and then made a gesture to invite him in.
