Tianma? Actually, I'm a doctor!

After all, Platinum's two games and Lin Guang's one game, totaling three games as the [finale], have already ended one.

The current astronomers went backstage, ready to enter the next show at any time.

So all that’s left in the lounge right now are the horse girls from the final Breeders’ Cup Classic.

This includes both the big red monster Secretariat in the mud, and...

The tall blonde girl knight Lin Guang wearing a decisive uniform!

Their eyes were all fixed on the big screen hanging in the lounge, watching Bai Jin cross the finish line under the live broadcast.

"What a monster."

The sigh that broke the silence came from the corner.

This legendary horse racing girl, known for her fragile physique, was hugging her knees, her expression filled with wonder and envy.

As the most physically fragile of the three legends of the Breeders' Cup Classic, she is always filled with envy when she sees Lin Guang, Secretariat and even Platinum, who can withstand battles and maintain extremely good results.

And now, the route is looking at Platinum, who is surprised and envious when he sees that he can easily defeat the thugs while retaining his strength!

——This is not my full strength!

——Platinum hasn’t had much time to train on the mud field yet!

After realizing these two key points, even if it is a route that I am confident in, I can only envy it and feel puzzled.

That Pegasus's body...how terrifying is it?

I'm afraid that Platinum's body would be among the top three in history in terms of strength in the world of mud racing girls. How could there be such a terrifying horse racing girl!

But the current Secretariat is not thinking about these things.

This big red monster is famous for her strong body, and she does not envy the physique of other horse girls.

"Platinum...that's really interesting."

Secretariat's long crimson hair fell like a waterfall, and a strange light flickered in her scarlet eyes.

It seems that this legendary monster, who is qualified to compete for the strongest title in the history of mud, has been aroused with high fighting spirit.

"If Platinum gives it her all and even trains to adapt to the muddy environment!"

The Secretariat muttered to himself but did not continue.

The other horse girls present, though silent, each had their own answers.

Approaching a super big difference? Or...directly reaching a super big difference?

Even legendary horse girls like Sea Biscuit-senpai and Yuu-san can't do it.

The Uma Musume who had defeated the thugs before is none other than the Brilliant Knight Rinkou, who is expected to defeat Secretariat and surpass the fighters!

The potential and infinite possibilities shown by Platinum clearly have the potential to compete for the title of "The Strongest in History" in the mud racing world.

"How is it that a horse girl, after dominating every race on grass, also possesses boundless potential on dirt?"

"Is she the biological daughter of the Three Goddesses, or the Three Goddesses themselves?"

Some of the horse girls around were dumbfounded and finally expressed their sighs.

"But Platinum, she's retiring! She won't be running anymore!"

“What a pity, Shirogane is still in her prime.

"Losing such a powerful enemy, is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

Many foals couldn't understand it and were greatly shocked!

The Secretariat did not participate in the discussion but turned its head away.

The direction she looked back at was...

Not far behind was the Shining Knight and the Mud Horse Lin Guang!

What slightly surprised the Secretariat was that the blond young knight, who nodded with great authority, had a front as calm as a calm lake.

Even Secretariat and Route, two of the three active legends in the United States, were amazed by Platinum's final battle in the mud, but Lin Guang remained calm and indifferent to the extreme?

It seemed that no one in this world understood Platinum's strength better than Lin Guang, and it seemed that Knight Yao had already anticipated the Platinum's huge victory.

The Secretariat did not care about this. After all, she was the one who stepped onto the Lin Anran Cup to challenge, knowing the relationship between Margaret Linguang and Dr. Lin, that they were niece and uncle.

Dr. Lin and Platinum have an even better relationship. During the more than one year that he went to Japan, Platinum was his first and only foal with an exclusive contract!

Bai Jin even came to watch Margaret Linguang's debut match, which must be related to Lin Anran.

Therefore, in the Secretariat's opinion, these two little Pegasus should have a very good relationship, perhaps as close as best friends. They understand each other, and it is natural for them to be optimistic about each other's strength.

"Lin Guang, what do you think of Bai Jin's historical performance in mud?"

Then, the Secretariat began her questioning, her tone serious.

This question made the horse girls who were discussing or sighing around pause collectively, and most of them turned their eyes and cast their gazes on Secretariat and Lin Guang.

Actually... asking about the strongest grass-racing horse girl in history, her performance on mud?

"From [now], it's enough to be ranked in the top 30 in history, a super horse king-level achievement."

Lin Guang gave her answer in her cold, steady and majestic female voice.

Just two games!

Both of those matches were won with a huge margin of victory, and the opponents were all talented horse racing girls with great achievements, so they were able to directly catch up with many senior monsters who had worked hard for two or three years!

"Top 30... In other words, it's around 20, right?"

The Secretariat spoke slowly and affirmatively.

When she said this, the pupils of some of the horse girls around her suddenly shrank, as if they immediately realized the secretariat's question and the meaning of this reaction!

"Gu..."

"Twenty-something, just one step away from the [Cup of Dreams]?!"

The route suddenly realized the hidden meaning from the Secretariat.

Dream Cup!

Generally speaking, the number of people who sign up for a race is in their early twenties at most.

For example, Japan's GI race Arima Kinen, or the most famous international GI race on grass, the Arc de Triomphe, as long as there are no strict restrictions on the entry conditions, there have been many cases in history where the number of participants is 20 or even more.

As for more, it is generally unlikely.

Too many people will cause the Uma Musume group to be too bloated during the competition, which may have some negative impact on the viewing experience and fairness of the competition.

Therefore, the maximum number of participants in the Dream Cup is theoretically in their early twenties, and they can only be qualified if they meet the historical ranking requirements.

As for Platinum, according to Lin Guang's judgment, her ranking after the two battles was in the twenties, which was just a few places away from the twenty or early twenties.

Just a hair's breadth! A tiny, regrettable gap that will cost you the qualification to participate in the battle?!

Lin Guang spoke calmly, without any regret, and added something.

"But—that's [now]."

Logically speaking, Bai Jin had already announced that the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile that just concluded was her last battle on the dirt track.

Everything about the grass pony in the mud should be completely frozen.

"Yes, only now."

The Secretariat immediately nodded, agreeing with Lin Guang's words.

There are usually two situations where it has nothing to do with your subsequent competition but can significantly improve your evaluation.

The first type is a bit special. Some horse girls have defeated the future horse king in the past. When the defeated future horse king achieves good results later, the evaluation of those who defeated her before will be improved.

I didn’t work hard, but my opponent in a past match worked hard enough, so I won...without any effort!

The current story about Yamato Akagi losing five horse lengths to Platinum and being widely circulated is a similar case.

The second type is that they retired due to certain circumstances, leaving behind enough mystery and legends, becoming very topical and becoming the "Phantom Horse King".

For example, if she hadn't been injured before the East China Sea Emperor Chrysanthemum Appreciation, she might have been able to become an undefeated triple champion!

But the Dream Cup is too short and will be opened in the next one or two months.

The possibility of improving the rating outside of those two competitions would take quite some time, and it would be impossible to make Platinum's mud rating jump from the twenties to the top twenty in such a short time.

"Next, let's see her final dance on the grass after being drained of her energy by the mob."

Secretariat muttered to herself, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing an expectant expression.

"This is not only her final retirement match, but also her last hope to participate in the Dream Cup!"

Other horse girls can only pray that their former opponents will indirectly improve their evaluation after retirement, or that they will become some kind of phantom horse king.

But Platinum is different. She doesn't need to pray for that! Instead, many horse girls who have reached the Pegasus Hall pray for Platinum to become stronger!

Only Platinum, only she dared to start the [Two Crowns in One Day], which was the hope to break the limit and continue to make breakthroughs!

"As long as Platinum can win, it definitely means that her final mud battle wasn't at her full strength."

"There's no need for time or opponents. Her reputation in the mud racing world will improve, moving her from the top 30 to the top 20, securing a ticket to the Dream Cup."

"If we can continue to win by a large margin, it's possible that we can return to the top ten in clay track history."

If they continue to win big in the latter grass-court match, which should have been exhausting, wouldn’t that mean they were “slacking off” and saving energy when facing the thugs?

In other words, Platinum's challenge of winning two championships in one day will affect each other, and her possibility of winning the Dream Cup is not extinct!

The big red monster stood proudly with her arms folded across her chest, gazing at the picture on the big screen.

The next race, the Breeders' Cup Turf Stakes, which will determine whether Platinum can finally achieve his goal and qualify, is about to begin!

"If it's a huge difference... then it's an unprecedented second round, top ten!"

"In the name of Big Red, I am here to bear witness to the heights to which Pegasus can soar."

After finishing his words, the Secretariat shifted its attention back to the shining blonde girl.

"Lin Guang, will you welcome that unexpected guest?"

Lin Guang said nothing, but just gently stroked her sword.

The next moment, Margaret Linguang, illuminated by the scorching sun through the glass, nodded slightly, her gorgeous and shining golden hair and even the white cloak behind her swaying.

It seems that this knight is ready to stand up and fight at any time.

"Rather, I'm extremely happy to do so."

On the Dream Cup, the iron rule of "kings do not meet kings" no longer exists.

Sword, spear and bow.

Knights and Assassins.

Pegasus to Pegasus.

Will we...meet?!

-----------------------------------

after a while.

The silver-white girl is walking calmly.

She pushed open the door and returned to the familiar backstage of Uma Musume.

Well, just now, she was sitting here.

It hasn't been long, and it's already time for Pegasus Platinum's [return]!

"haven't seen you for a long time."

When Platinum saw the astronomer, he greeted him.

"I just saw you in the lounge."

The black-haired girl didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but still responded.

And then, the astronomer's sharp eyes were fixed on Bai Jin from top to bottom.

In an instant, the astronomer turned Platinum from a familiar friend into a mortal enemy that must be vigilant.

But soon she frowned slightly, seeing Bai Jin's calmness and ease, without showing any sign of fatigue.
