Chapter 29 A Strange Competitive Spirit

The newly radiant light was slightly frightened by the violence hidden beneath Huiyi's cute appearance.

It's only a few hundred yuan, yet they care so much about it. It seems... it seems that Huiyi's family was really poor when he was young.

This is something that a woman like Shining Glory, who comes from a wealthy family and owns a sporting goods store, could never imagine.

And it seems to reflect the saying in the new brilliance's impression, "Children from poor families learn to be independent early," and perhaps Brilliance's original innocence has also disappeared in the early trials...?

[New Radiance, Favorability Up]: 35 (Affection)

After discussing this topic, Kitahara and Oguri Hat returned to the training room, followed by Naze Fumino and the group from the Great Shock Bay.

Kitahara praised as soon as he entered: "Huiyi had a great start! And he was able to unleash a powerful final kick at the end, Nase-senpai, you saw that too, right!"

"From what I see, she's just relying entirely on her body without any real skill, but that last kick really stumped me," Naze Fumino commented. After all, in a sprint race, once you're overtaken at the end, it's very difficult to catch up.

Naze Fumino had never seen anyone release a second burst of power to catch up before. Maybe she's just not suited for running in such high-intensity sprints?

"And what's more, Huiyi herself has a very strong potential for growth!"

"Hmm? How strong?"

"In just half a month, she improved her record from 1,000 meters to 1,200 meters." Kitahara boasted as if showing off a treasure, and Naise Fumino turned her head in shock after hearing this.

This rate of growth is somewhat terrifying even in Tresson's history; she had never witnessed anything like it before: "Are you sure? You raised the ceiling by two hundred meters in just half a month?"

Raising the potential of female ponies is not as simple as it is for humans; otherwise, all the struggling female ponies could reach a peak through training all day long.

“Uh…? Oh right, the person in question is right here…” Huiyi raised her hand slightly in the middle of their conversation, but in that moment of distraction, Xiaohaiwan took the opportunity to sit down next to Huiyi and reached out to accurately massage the area where she was still a little sore.

The soothing sensation in his cerebellum took over his brain, and Huiyi stopped trying to resist, simply leaning back on the sofa like a useless person.

“Kitahara really found a gem… Although Huiyi’s debut race is set for the 1200 meters, maybe in the future we can let her challenge the mile race, or even the middle-distance race?” Naze Fumino’s suggestion, made casually, received a response from Huiyi who perked up her ears.

Xiao Haiwan also bent along with Huiyi's ears, showing that Huiyi was very interested in switching to the new competition schedule.

But Xiaohaiwan is also worried about one thing: Huiyi's current physique is too small, not to mention for middle-distance races, even for mile races.

As he boiled water to prepare tea, Kitahara raised his hand and pinched the brim of his hat, pondering, "Let's take it slow, like Oguri, taking one step at a time. Trying to rush things can easily lead to disaster."

"Huh?" Little Chestnut Hat, who was crunching on a big bag of potato chips, turned her head. She seemed to have heard Kitahara's voice just now, but it seemed that the sound of chewing was interfering.

"I think it's a great idea! We'll finish our debut competition in June, and then participate in the big prize competitions in August, September, October, November, and December! And then we'll take down Hanshin JF in December!"

"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!" Kitahara jumped up from his chair, grabbed half a radish from the table, and threw it into Huiyi's mouth.

"Gulp!" With his mouth stuck in a carrot, Huiyi wanted to say more things that betrayed his ancestors, but he couldn't make a sound. He could only silently gnaw on the carrot.

Upon hearing these words, Da Zhen's gaze towards Huiyi shifted slightly. Just as he had thought, Huiyi still harbored a strong desire to run...

"You think the schedule is easy, but you haven't considered whether I'll get criticized. One race a month... I'd be reluctant to let you run one race every two months in the new Year of the Horse!" Kitahara gently tapped Huiyi's head with his knuckles, his own ears twitching in response.

Sometimes, when Kitahara Jones gets angry, his tail will stand on end.

"Oh, right!" Little Chestnut Hat, who was engrossed in eating snacks, suddenly shouted, drawing everyone's attention.

"What's wrong, Oguri?" Kitahara asked, since Oguri rarely acted so easily.

After putting down the bag of potato chips and wiping her hands clean, Xiao Limai pulled Huiyi, who was lying comfortably, to sit up.

"Coo-coo! The competitiveness you showed at the end was amazing! How did you do it?!" It wasn't just a simple competitive spirit on the field; Oguri Hat could clearly feel it!

That's a dominant competitive spirit that's been cultivated and evolved since childhood, not an instinct of life, just like Oguri Hat's refusal to back down in a competitive eating contest!

"Huh?! Why bring this up all of a sudden! I... well... I just want to win, it's that simple..."

"No! Cuckoo Bird is lying. This isn't just a simple competitive spirit burning with the desire to win." When Little Chestnut Hat gets serious, she won't give up. In the current situation, it seems that no matter how Huiyi lies, he can't fool her.

After all, Pokémon are naturally gifted at detecting lies, except when they're with their trainers. Love, after all, is poison; it can reduce a person's intelligence to negative numbers.

Huiyi hummed and hawed a few times, then finally sighed softly and explained, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you. It also has something to do with the environment I grew up in."

I really don't want to talk about this embarrassing thing from my childhood...

"You all know, my family wasn't wealthy, and naturally, we didn't have much social standing. My mom always told me, 'Never lose to others in anything you do.' I was three years old then, and that idea has been ingrained in my mind ever since." Huiyi leaned back on the sofa, smacked his lips, and the memories of decades ago always brought back some...

Feeling inexplicably sad; this is a bad habit that comes with getting older.

"So ever since kindergarten, I've always been competitive. If they studied for an hour, I studied for two hours, and that continued until junior high."

"That's how my personality became. Then in junior high, I met someone who could eat even more than me. I wasn't convinced, so I ate until I was sick of it, while he was still eating." Huiyi covered his face, recounting what could be considered the biggest dark chapter in his life.

"Isn't this a waste of food?" Little Chestnut Hat asked, grasping the key point.

Huiyi replied solemnly, "I swallowed the food I spat out, so there was no waste."

[Author's Note: This is something I actually did.]

"huh?"

"what?"

"?"

"?"

"...?"

Oguri Hat, Little Bay, Naise Fumino, Kitahara, and Shining Glory all simultaneously raised a question mark.

Chapter 30 I've never felt happy running

"Wait...! This is too... too weird!!" The new radiance couldn't understand Huiyi's various principles of conduct at all. The things she just said were beyond the comprehension of a normal person!

Huiyi rubbed her fingertips back and forth on the hollow of her nose, her ears drooping and sticking to her scalp: "Wasting food is punishable. I was young and didn't know any better, so I was afraid of being scolded and just swallowed it. Thinking about it now, it was pretty stupid."

"Afterwards, society wore down my temper, and I just let things take their course." After explaining, Huiyi returned to the embrace of Gravity Mother, fell heavily onto the soft sofa, and started snoring.

As a child, he was incredibly competitive, but in college, he became incredibly lazy. This attitude reached its peak when Huiyi's parents died in a flood. Alone and without many ties, the only wish that had previously sustained Huiyi's efforts—to provide a good retirement for his parents—was shattered.

After graduating and working aimlessly, Huiyi was completely worn down by life. Until she was struck by good fortune and brought into this world full of beauty and hope, only she had already lost that hope and beauty.

Her words silenced everyone in the training room. Oguri Hat, who had instigated the incident, fidgeted with her fingers, seemingly at a loss. She could never have imagined that this would be such a heavy topic.

"Um, cuckoo bird... I'm sorry..."

"Hey~ It's not like it's anything sad, so we're not affected! We'll eat and sleep as usual. If Xiaoli really wants to apologize, then a sincere apology should show her belly." Huiyi raised her arm and shook it a few times, grinning to reveal a set of big white teeth.

“What’s so strange about showing your belly when you apologize…” The new radiance was already numb to it, covering his forehead with one hand and turning to focus on the maintenance of his sports equipment.

Fumino Nase and Jones Kitahara exchanged a glance and agreed to meet at the izakaya that evening.

The afternoon was spent idly in the training room. After dinner, she returned to the dormitory and looked preoccupied. After all, what Huiyi had casually mentioned earlier seemed rather heavy to her, unlike what a young horse girl in the prime of her life would experience.

"What a shock...! Can I take a shower first?" Huiyi had been enduring her sweaty body all day, so she grabbed her pajamas and rushed into the bathroom without looking back.

I always felt that the relationship between the two of them was heading in the direction of coldness, but Da Zhenzhen didn't know how to make up for it. Most of the time, it was probably her who brought up some inappropriate topics, causing Huiyi to fall into that state.

"Perhaps I should study... the art of language? But how do you learn something like that?" Da Zhen sat on the edge of the bed, tapping his fingertips on the screen. He raised an eyebrow when he saw the rubbish courses being promoted on Twitter. Maybe he should look for... someone familiar to him.

"Phew~ It feels so good after a shower." Humming a little tune, Huiyi picked up the hairdryer and dried her hair in front of the mirror, then started a conversation: "Da Shen Yang, do you find running enjoyable?"

"Huh? Ah? Running... It's so much fun! I really enjoy the feeling of speeding across the grass. I feel like I can fly, and I can keep up with everyone's speed!" Da Zhenhan became very energetic when he mentioned running.

After listening, Huiyi nodded thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and then turned to say, "I've never actually felt happy while running. It's tiring and you end up with a mouthful of mud."

She was stunned and speechless. Seeing the petite horse girl with her long hair flowing down her back and her amethyst eyes sparkling with a unique light, she was determined to say something grand and righteous. But then Huiyi changed the subject.

"But—! I've changed my mind. I discovered that I can earn bounties by participating in running races. Money makes me happy, and running can win me bounties. So… running = making me happy!" A charming smile appeared on Ke Ren's face, and Da Zhen was almost mesmerized by it. It has to be said that the aloe vera on Hui Yi's body really smelled wonderful.

Not to mention, she had just come out of the bathroom and really smelled of shower gel.

A profound sense of awe arose within me, and the thought suddenly came to mind—it's truly astonishing that there are people who aren't fooled by the scent of wild privet...

His mind was so focused on Huiyi's white hair that Da Zhenhan hadn't even heard what Huiyi said after smiling until Huiyi raised his voice and called out, "Da Zhenhan...!" He then came to his senses, but answering... Da Zhenhan found it a little difficult.

"Huh? What's wrong..."

"That's what I'm saying! What do you think of my idea? Encourage yourself with the prize money from the competition every day, and then walk onto the field full of energy! In the end, you'll gain both fame and fortune!" Huiyi jumped back onto the bed, swinging her bare little feet, and lay her upper body on the soft quilt.

"Hehehe...and then it snowballs...the more I earn, the more famous I become...! More money than I could ever spend in eight lifetimes! It's amazing!"

Hmm… pure white… Her nonchalant movements were clearly observed by Da Zhen, who was on the other side. Sometimes one can't help but marvel at the many great inventions humanity has made… like the nightgown Huiyi was wearing right now…

Shocked, she shrank back into the covers, hiding her flushed cheeks from seeing certain sexual things. This was truly... Yiqi (Part 1) [The following appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-translated text:] ...his private father

marvelous!!!!

April and May passed in a flash. The winner of the Satsuki Prize in April was called Yamato Shusho. When Huiyi saw this news, he wondered if this racehorse girl was related to Yamato Akama, since both names contain the character Yamato.

The winner of the Japanese derby is called Hawaii Queen, who became the first horse in Japanese horse racing history to achieve a double crown. She has recently gained considerable popularity, surpassing even the Yamato captain in popularity by several titles…

In short, there are still many strong contenders in this year's Uma Musume, but they have little to do with Huiyi, since their strength lies in mid-range races, while Huiyi's current activity plan is focused on short-range races.

Next year, even if it's a classic year, we might not necessarily run into these monsters.

The training during this period has been quite effective. Huiyi's limit has increased by another 200 meters from 1200 meters, and he will soon be able to reach the threshold of the standard mile race. This progress makes Kitahara very happy, but as the debut race approaches, Kitahara is more worried.

After all, Huiyi has only participated in one test race since enrolling, so no one can be sure how he will perform on the 1000-meter track.

"The draw sheet is out!" Kitahara's voice in the training room drew the attention of the entire team. Huiyi was the closest, peeking his head out from in front of Kitahara to look at the document.

"Let me see which gate I'm at? It can't be the outer gate, can it?"

"Brilliant White Horse, Gate 4! This is a good position. It's not too far in and it won't get blocked, nor will it be too far out and require too much effort!" Kitahara was quite pleasantly surprised. The pressure on M-I-Lin 7-Dad 7-Si-Wu 5-Lu-Qun before the race has been temporarily reduced!

"Alright! Our next goal is to head to Hakodate Racecourse!"

I was a bit stunned and flattered when I came back from playing 2077 this afternoon.

Words cannot express my gratitude; only renewal can repay it!

Chihaya Aine Has Nine Wings

[Orange; Love ALL; Supernatural Power Battle]

Chihaya Aine became a person with out-of-control supernatural powers due to a disaster and had to drop out of school in the UK and return to Tokyo to prepare to become an ordinary person.

But reality does not allow it.

She knew that she was surrounded by the old members of the former heroic team Crychic and formed a new team.

Unbeknownst to her, her five closest friends are actually members of the ultra-dangerous supernatural criminal organization AveMujica.

Deng shouted that he wanted to be with her forever.

Li Xi has a sour face every day and seems to have a prejudice.

Her most popular anchor Miao Mengqin and her favorite idol Sanjiao Chuhua invited her out on a date one after another.

Toyokawa Shoko, who is shrouded in numerous mysteries, lives with her, making lunch boxes during the day and becoming her enemy at night.

Plus Goto Ichiri who worships her, and Isen Jinna who has an inexplicable crush on her...

Oh, and from time to time I have to battle AveMujica with everyone from MyGO!!!!!

Alas, in this vortex of chaos, only Nagasaki Suyo is gentle and considerate, and she is the only harbor that can comfort my soul...

Eh? Why didn't Su Shi respond to me when I greeted her just now?

Huh? What do you mean I'm not needed?

Don't scare me!

Chapter 31 Ma Sheng's First Time...

Hakodate Racecourse is located in Hakodate City, Hokkaido, and is the oldest existing racecourse in Japan's URA (Universal Racecourse Authority).

The races for horse girls have been held for over a century.

After a direct flight from Tokyo Airport to Hakodate Airport, followed by a short train ride of about ten minutes, Kitahara and his group stood in front of the entrance to Hakodate Racecourse. Although it was not as grand and imposing as Tokyo Racecourse or Nakayama Racecourse, Hakodate Racecourse was still a racecourse managed by the central government, with all the necessary infrastructure.

"Wow!! This is the racetrack... It's huge, it must have cost a lot of money, right? And during the race off-season, they have to maintain the turf and stuff... It must cost a lot of money." The group, holding Central Tresson's credentials, could enter the racetrack without any hindrance, and as soon as they entered, Huiyi was attracted by the main part of the racetrack—the track.

Oguri Hat has seen so many races that she doesn't react much, while Shining Radiance isn't a racehorse girl and mainly focuses on logistics, so she doesn't have any specific standards for her perception of the racetrack. Kitahara, as a trainer, deals with the racetrack almost every day and is already tired of it.
