Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

If nothing unexpected happens, it will be poured into the large mineral water bottle that Fei Tu Hu Po is holding in her arms.

Kotobuki wasn't lying; these skincare products were indeed homemade. However, as a young lady from a wealthy family, she didn't know that not all families had the capacity to mass-produce hand cream and the like...

In the end, Hitotsu Kohaku couldn't resist Kotobuki's desire to share good things and accepted the strange skincare product. Under Kotobuki's repeated requests, she agreed to buy a tube of lip balm to apply to her lips.

Kotobuki left satisfied, while Hitoko Amber nodded slightly to Kotobuki: "Then I'll be going too. I'll go to Treson tomorrow to train my skills while the weather is cold... I've already made plans with Donna and Takasaka."

Kotobuki nodded: "When training skills, you must not be impatient, take it slowly..."

Are you coming tomorrow?

I'll come and visit when I have time.

"Hehehe~ That's good."

Chapter 87 There's generally not much friendship in friendship training.

The temperature remained extremely low on the second day, and everyone stayed at home or under the covers, not wanting to go out, making it a day with an exceptionally high rate of late arrivals.

However, it was precisely in this kind of weather that the venue and facilities were all available, and the snow on the track had been cleared by snowplows, so it could be used freely.

"It's so cold, why come out here instead of running indoors... Fat Rabbit, are you just trying to challenge yourself because you have so much fat on you?"

Although she complained that Hitoko had no idea how to choose a venue, the noblewoman still arrived at the venue on time to meet Hitoko, exhaling long trails of white steam, looking quite extraordinary.

"Hehe, even the air quality is excellent for training in this kind of weather~ It's great." Fei Tu Hu Po started her warm-up exercises on the somewhat wilted lawn, doing her warm-up routine while asking the noblewoman in confusion, "By the way, I clearly invited Gao Shang Jun Yi to come along in the group chat, didn't I? Where is she?"

The lady stretched her legs, a proud smile instantly appearing on her face, a smile of intellectual superiority. "She's on this meadow too."

Fei Tu Hu Po quickly tiptoed and looked around, but after surveying the entire meadow, she still couldn't find Gao Shang Jun Yi.

"I didn't see it."

The noblewoman then pointed to the gate not far away, "Gao Shangjunyi should be inside the gate."

"Eh?"

Fei Tu Hu Po immediately strode towards the gate, turning back to ask the noblewoman behind her as she went, "Didn't Gao Shang not have any plans to practice her gate skills today? Why is she staying in the gate without even saying hello... Could it be that you bullied her so much that she's become withdrawn?"

The lady quickly waved her hand, "I didn't bully her to the point of making her withdrawn."

"Oh."

"I just told her that the iron railings of the gate after the snowfall tasted sweet, very fresh, and very delicious... and then she went into the gate and hasn't come out yet."

"Ugh, you're so mean!!"

Upon hearing this, Fei Tu Hu Po was instantly stunned. She quickly quickened her pace and ran towards the gate.

You should know that in winter, the temperature in Sapporo is generally below zero. If metal objects are left outdoors overnight, the surface temperature can drop to below ten degrees Celsius due to the cold wind...

If you were to lick it with your saliva at this moment, the saliva on your tongue would freeze instantly, causing your tongue and the connecting rod to stick together... making it impossible to move.

This is arguably one of the most common traps locals use to rip off tourists during the winter.

"Gao Shang, are you alright?"

"Waaah, it's...it's okay...it's just a little cold..."

Fei Tu Hu Po stood on tiptoe by the gate and looked inside. Sure enough, Gao Shang Jun Yi was squatting quietly in the corner of the gate, his pink tongue sticking out and dangling on the steel gate, looking like he couldn't move and could be bullied at will.

At this moment, the noblewoman also came up, glanced at the noble and handsome horse in the gate, and said with an experienced look: "It's okay, racehorse girls have a high basal body temperature and a strong metabolism. The tongue will come off by itself in two minutes."

"Huh? Is that so? Uma Musume is really amazing."

Fei Tu Hu Po remembered being tricked by her classmates into licking iron railings. She was only saved after they rinsed the railings with warm water to warm them up.

Upon hearing Fei Tu Hu Po's exclamation, the noblewoman quickly reached out and grabbed Fei Tu Hu Po's tracksuit jacket, reminding her, "Wow, don't be curious and try it out yourself!"

As we all know, humans have an instinct to imitate and grow through imitation, such as repeating what others have learned in a group chat... For example, a taxi driver who took a patient who had swallowed a light bulb to the hospital, then, not believing in such superstitions, put a light bulb in his own mouth and ended up getting himself hospitalized as well.

Therefore, the noblewoman had no doubt that if she didn't stop Fei Tu Hu Po, this silly roe deer, who loved to join in the fun and always wanted to "let me see what's going on," would also follow Gao Shang Jun Yi's example and stick herself to the iron railing.

If the two of them get angry and team up to fight one of them, I'll definitely be beaten to my knees. Although there are very few racehorse girls who come out to train in this weather, it would still be very embarrassing if someone else saw me.

Fei Tu Hu Po quickly straightened her back, which was about to slouch, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression, "Hey... how could you look at me like that? Do you think I'm the kind of person who would joke about my own tongue?"

The noblewoman remained silent, staring at Fei Tu Hu Po, her eyes flashing with a constant sense of warning.

Fei Tu Hu Po scratched her head: "Okay... I have a little bit of an urge to try out Axi, but it's just a little bit."

"Come on, do you look like a silly deer with only a hint of curiosity?"

Once Gao Shangjunyi's tongue was freed from the brakes, the three female racehorses gathered together to discuss their respective training plans.

The lady spoke first: "My endurance has always been a weak point. Recently, I've almost mastered my strength and speed. If I don't work on my endurance soon, I definitely won't be able to keep up in the competition."

“Hey, I was just saying I wanted to train my endurance…” Gao Shangjunyi raised an eyebrow, his face full of disdain for not wanting to train with the lady. “If the lady wants to train her endurance, then I won’t… I’ll train my strength.”

"Hey, wait a minute~ We've finally come out together, how can we not hone our skills and train together as a friendly team?"

"What friendship do you have with me?"

Friendship training refers to the training of racehorse girls together, honing their running skills together. The powerful motivation and effectiveness of friendship training rely on the competitive spirit and jealousy among the racehorse girls.

Just like the "rational and refined communication" among netizens, which is supposed to be an ideal exchange, it always ends up as a sweet-talking argument. The same goes for the horse racers. Many times, as they practice, the two sides easily lose their temper, and then their relationship deteriorates... In severe cases, they may even pull each other's hair.

Therefore, among the human fans who watch the spectacle, this kind of training is usually called "tearing each other apart training" or "friendship-ending training"... After all, the friendships between beautiful girls are not all pink and beautiful.

Those trainers are truly remarkable for calling this kind of training, filled with grudges and resentments, "friendship training."

After a long struggle, the noblewoman and the elegant Junyi finally decided to vent their dissatisfaction with each other through a friendly training session.

"We've gone to friendly training. What about you, Hitotsu Amber?"

"Me? I'm here to practice my skill proficiency!"

"Eh... wait, Kotobuki Toru should have said that your Sage attribute was assessed as very low, right? So you came here to practice your skills all by yourself?"

"Attributes, like gravity, are nothing but lies! Your souls are bound by gravity!"

Chapter 88 Training Methods for a 100% Positive Feedback Rate

"How come even gravity has become a capitalist's lie?"

The noblewoman looked speechlessly at Hitotsu Kohaku's anti-scientific remarks, then waved her hand: "Since you don't believe it, then try training first and see what numerical values ​​are like with your own body. Putting everything else aside, I still trust Kotobuki Toru's judgment as a trainer."

Fei Tu Hu Po angrily slammed the gate shut and then pressed the button to start the training: "Training it is then."

In addition to the traditional serial countdown opening function, most of the gates at Tresson College also have an exit training function.

That is, within one minute after the gate training function is set, the gate will open at a random time to allow the racehorse girls to train their starting and pre-race concentration abilities.

So all I need to do is keep an eye on the gate... By the way, what did Kotobuki Toru say to me back then?

"Clang."

Without any warning, the gate of the horse-drawn sluice gate swung open, sending up a gust of snowy wind, leaving only Hitotsu Amber standing inside the sluice gate, dumbfounded.

This is way too random!

The noblewoman standing to the side chuckled: "You're so slow! Even the racehorses with bad starting skills aren't as slow as you... Were you thinking about men just now?!"

Fei Tu Hu Po erupted in impotent rage, "Can you please stop disturbing my training?"

"Alright, you can practice on your own. Gao Shang, shall we go for some 'friendship' training?"

After the two left, Fei Tu Hu Po pressed the exit training button on the gate again. This time, she stared intently at the metal gate, not daring to have any wild thoughts.

In the next second, the gate opened.

It's time to run!

Fei Tu Hu Po's eyes narrowed, and she suddenly charged forward.

"Boom!"

Although it was supposed to be a starting training session, Hitotsu Kohaku still gave it her all at the start, her whole body resembling a thrusting sword, with a faint wisp of smoke around her, which looked like it was shimmering in the sunlight...

With the powerful boost from the start, Hibiki Amber shot forward like an arrow, covering nearly twenty meters in one go. As the momentum gradually dissipated, its speed slowly decreased, eventually coming to a smooth stop.

Looking back, the display screen on the gate showed the time taken for the start: 0.12 seconds.

As a former athlete, my starting reaction time was a full 0.18 seconds. Even so, my mentors considered me a promising talent. Meanwhile, the world's top athletes have a starting time of at most 0.12 seconds...

And now, she can easily rival top human trainers at the starting line—it feels amazing! Hito Amber no longer wants to be human!

But as happy as they were, according to the "Concentration" skill book, racehorse girls who had learned the Concentration skill could reduce their starting time to within 0.1 seconds... and racehorse girls whose bodies glowed with golden light at the start could even reduce their starting time to a fraction of a second.

Moreover, there are even some legendary racehorse girls who, through their self-taught starting skills, can reduce their starting time to 0.01 seconds, or even 0 seconds...

It sounds like they've been given a cheat code.

Compared to humans, she is already incredibly strong, but compared to other racehorse girls... she is still several digits behind.

Still need to practice more.

So, Hibiki Amber pressed the start training button once again.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

I started the race the second time according to the instructions in the book on concentration, but my result was worse than the first time.

【0.15 seconds】

Fei Tu Hu Po raised her eyebrows, a surge of competitive spirit welling up inside her... I just don't believe it!

After two hours of repeated training, the noblewoman and Gao Shangjunyi returned. The noblewoman was all smiles, looking as if she had just relieved her constipation. Although Gao Shangjunyi also had his tail drooping, he seemed to have enjoyed running quite a bit.

The lady glanced at the average time of the last ten starts on the gate and pursed her lips: "An average of 0.12 seconds... that's considered a standard starting speed for racehorses. So reading more books is still useful, but you're far from being able to concentrate."

Fei Tu Hu Po leaned against the saddle railing, using the cold railing to cool her cheeks and muscles, and said helplessly, "I'm still in the practice stage, but I feel like I've already achieved enlightenment!"

"You're completely clueless... Let's talk again when the starting line is under 0.1."

Fei Tu Hu Po scratched her head: "Ahem, besides what's mentioned in the book—feeling, listening, and thinking—do you have any other training tips?"

"I have no idea……"

Gao Shangjunyi is an honest boy who grew up hearing the saying that "only hardworking racehorse girls can get what they want." Therefore, he trains hard every day and has never thought of taking shortcuts.

"Oh? You want a shortcut? I have a method with a 100% success rate, do you want to give it a try?"

But the noblewoman laughed, her expression enigmatic.

Upon hearing this, Fei Tu Hu Po was immediately overjoyed and quickly asked, "There really is such a thing? What method is it? Please share it!"

"Go to the countryside now, find a hunter who knows how to shoot arrows and shoot you with a bow. With the horse girl's reaction speed enhanced by her concentration skill, she could definitely catch the arrow with one hand..."

Hitotsu Amber was stunned, her face filled with horror: "Is this how Spartan training is for racehorses? What if I don't catch it?"

The noblewoman laughed even harder: "That's why I said the success rate is 100%! Either you'll have a flash of inspiration and figure out how to use your concentration, and catch the arrow that's being shot at you... or if you don't catch it... what happens then? Then we'll collect your corpse?"

"Just like parachutes bought online, 100% positive reviews, right? If there's a real problem, you don't even have a chance to leave a bad review..."

Fei Tu Hu Po understood perfectly now that the noblewoman was clearly joking and trying to make fun of her!

The lady smiled and said, "Then practice slowly. There are no shortcuts in the skill training of racehorse girls..."

Fei Tu Hu Po nodded. Actually, she hadn't had much hope to begin with... Being teased by the noblewoman like that made her feel much better, even though she had been a bit discouraged.

"Then I'll continue training!"

Just as Fei Tu Hu Po was preparing for training, the noblewoman squeezed into the gate and grabbed Fei Tu Hu Po's clothes, throwing her out: "You rest for a bit, let me practice."

"Eh?"

"Hey what? Didn't you see your violin is completely worn out?"

"I really didn't see it... and what do you mean by 'my house'..."

Chapter 89 I squeezed out too much skincare product, can you help me distribute some more evenly?

Now that Kotobuki Toru had arrived, Hitoko Amber didn't rush to continue her training and instead went to greet him.
