Uma Musume, Master of Love

"Wait...! Huiyi, why do you keep emphasizing that I am the future undefeated three-time champion...?" Da Zhenhan had been hearing this from Huiyi for several weeks. He thought she was just teasing him, but after a few times, Da Zhenhan could clearly feel that she was serious and full of confidence.

Huiyi didn't turn around, but simply replied, "I believe you, that's all~ Did you really think I wouldn't care about your usual grades? There are almost no other female racers in your cohort who can pull off a stunt like you!"

These words left Da Zhenhan speechless. Indeed, judging solely from the results, the discussion was something Da Zhenhan couldn't refute... But as she watched Huiyi's retreating figure heading towards Beiyuan, she actually wanted to say something more.

Actually, my grades in Japan aren't that much different from mine now...?

Is Nan Yueyi N陾韭气7翏久衣珊捌琉道辉熠 a racehorse girl who doesn't care about anything except her own results? I was shocked and suddenly felt a warm feeling in my heart!

For himself, for his dream, and even more so for Huiyi's trust! Da Zhenshen slapped his cheeks, his eyes shining even brighter—Da Zhenshen! If you can't achieve an undefeated three-time champion, you'll be utterly pathetic! How can you live up to so much trust!

"I'm here~ I was a little late because I was chatting with Daehan~ Radiant, you just said that Trainer Naze invited some seniors to train with both Daehan and me? Who are they?"

Hello! Nice to see you!

A broken English voice with a heavy neon accent rushed straight to Huiyi's face. The voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't immediately remember who it was. Her brain, which hadn't been used for years and was rusty, was still trying to translate what the English had just said.

"You must be Trainer Kitahara! Trainer Nase already told me~ Training with juniors is no problem!" The brown-haired, enthusiastic horse girl, whose figure and height were both impressive, made a gun gesture with her fingers and rested her thumb on her cheek.

"Mynameis the Great Tree Express! He was known as the strongest when he retired!"

The older sister, a racehorse girl, speaks in a way that's hard to understand, but Huiyi is quite familiar with her. She's straightforward and enthusiastic, but to put it bluntly, she's a single-minded but very warm-hearted golden retriever. Her style of doing things is similar to Jin Zhenzhiguang's: do it first and think about it later.

Kitahara was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Fumino Naze could call up a racehorse girl of the caliber of Taiju Express to be a sparring partner. Then, turning his head to look over there, he saw an even more heavyweight—the shocking sparring partner was none other than the East Sea Emperor of SPICA!

"Look, Kitahara-san, you see? This is what connections are all about~" Huiyi moved over and said in a leisurely voice~ Then Kitahara grabbed her head and started rubbing it.

While rubbing, Kitahara ignored Huiyi's moans and said to Taiki Express, "Hello, I didn't expect to have you train with me. It's an honor."

When Big Tree Express saw Huiyi, her eyes lit up just like the other racehorse girls, and she became even more enthusiastic. However, because of her naturally open personality, this didn't stand out too much. But the sound that Huiyi heard was very real.

【Big Tree Express】: Affection 45 (This enthusiastic and lively dog-type racehorse girl seems to have a high affection for everyone~)

Oh well, there's nothing to worry about with the naturally enthusiastic but silly racehorse girl, and Huiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

but……

"That's enough, Kitahara! You're going to rub my scalp bald!" She broke free from Kitahara's grasp and snorted in dissatisfaction, but as soon as she turned her head, that big-breasted, brainless dog pressed her against his chest again.

"This must be the horse girl I train with~ She's so very, very cute~!"

"Gurgle—!!"

The familiar suffocating feeling he had experienced in that small bay resurfaced, and Huiyi saw his great-grandmother waving to him from another world...

"Wait! Huiyi is suffocating—e》r Kyuuzaki Ryuu-bi—!"

The two troublesome horse girls got together and created a strange chemical reaction. After a series of farcical events, Da Zhenhan had already completed a lap around the East Sea Emperor's territory.

"Alright, let's save the horseplay for after training. Huiyi, Big Tree Express is a champion racehorse in short distance England, so you should learn how it runs properly later." Kitahara instructed before explaining the training plan for later.

"Then let's set the training race for 1200 meters, starting from here and going all the way to the finish line in the Amazon. I'll flip a coin in a bit, and the race will start when it lands, understand?"

"clear."

"OK~"

The sight of the tall, eager-to-race horse made Huiyi swallow hard. Looking up at the stark difference in height and build, he silently marveled to himself, "Is this the authentic Sprint Girls? It's so...tall. I can't even imagine how the real Classic Year would run against these Sprint Girls."

So Huiyi quietly moved to the side, afraid that when the race started, the big tree would swing its arm and elbow her directly to the ground...

Kitahara held the coin between his fingertips and tossed it high into the air, the silver coin glittering in the sunlight as it disappeared into the grass...

Huiyi then acted like a wild dog that had broken free of its reins and charged out.

Its speed was so fast that even the Tree Express, which had also started at the same time, was taken aback.

"What?"

----

A bedtime story!

Let's continue talking about food. During Chinese New Year, Grandma Gugu Bird would make chive and egg dumplings, and her filling was delicious. Then one time, when Grandma asked me to mix the filling, I started eating bits and pieces of it directly from the bowl [the eggs were cooked, but the chives were still raw].

Although the filling is technically still raw, it tastes very delicious.

In the end, the cuckoo ate all the filling, so we only made half a basket of dumplings. The rest of the dough was used to make potstickers.

Hao Chi!

Chapter 50 Shocking Homo

At this point, Big Tree Express had to admit one thing: in all her years of racing on the short English track, she had never seen a racehorse with such an exaggerated start.

To use an analogy from the hometown of Big Tree Express, a regular racehorse is like a fully automatic weapon that needs to have its safety engaged before it can fire, while Glittering White Horse is like a Western quick-draw gunner who fires eight shots in 0.5 seconds.

"Interesting! I've never seen such talent before!" Big Tree Express rekindled her fighting spirit from back in the day. Although her start couldn't keep up with Huiyi's speed, her trump card wasn't a stealth race.

Once her speed stabilized, she chose to maintain a slight increase in speed and follow behind Huiyi, keeping a distance of about two horse lengths.

No matter what, Big Tree Express is a veteran who has already completed the Shining Race, and moreover, her endurance is enough to support her dominating the mile race. Brilliant is definitely inferior to her in every aspect.

The result was obvious. When she was going around a corner, Huiyi once again demonstrated the confidence that came with double purple laps on the corner. In the blink of an eye, she was overtaken by Dashu Express with its fierce momentum. She tried her best but couldn't catch up even half a body length. As a result, Huiyi almost braked with her face when crossing the finish line.

"Ahaha—!! Isn't this pure bullying?! How can I compete with such an experienced senior? With my head?!" Sometimes, Liu Yiqi's mentality is very strange, always switching back and forth between caring about winning and losing and not caring.

At that moment, she thought that if she lost to a racehorse of the same class, she could simply laugh it off and admit that she was not as skilled. But losing to a racehorse several classes higher than her, Ooki Express, made her feel inexplicably wronged.

Looking back, Huiyi still finds it very strange.

After all, judging from my own soul... this old lady has suffered so much from the beatings of society, she shouldn't feel aggrieved in this regard, right? In the end, after thinking it over, I can only put the blame on the three goddesses—the elements that the three goddesses inscribed in their body instincts when they created Uma Musume.

"Seeing your beautiful start reminded me of my own racing spirit back in the day~ So I forgot you're still a newly debuted racehorse girl, sorry!" Big Tree Express realized that she had done something wrong during the practice and took the initiative to apologize to Huiyi.

Her hands were clasped together and rubbed back and forth, which looked very sincere. Coupled with her constantly twitching ears, it made people feel even less angry. Huiyi wanted to say something, but in the end, she just let out a soft breath and sat down on the ground with her back to the big tree.

She sat down on the ground mainly because she was too tired to stand. With her chin resting on the back of her hand, Huiyi lay back on the grass and asked, "Can I take this as Senior Tree praising me?"

“YES! You know, starting position is very important in short English races—and your start is more than enough. Even among all the opponents I’ve seen, only you can make me feel threatened at the start.” Big Tree Express sat down next to Huiyi, his tone filled with joy.

Kitahara also walked over from the other end of the training field, followed by Shining Radiance, who was carrying two bottles of sports drinks, which she gave to the two racehorse girls who had just finished their run.

"Big Tree Express, what do you think Huiyi can achieve in the end?" Beiyuan asked Big Tree Express, but his actions were to squat down next to Huiyi, roll up her trouser leg, and pinch her calf.

"Hiss—! Kitahara, what are you doing!" With Kitahara pinching him like that, Huiyi suddenly pulled his leg back, almost kicking out with his hoof.

After a moment's thought, Big Tree Express replied, "If Huiyi's adaptability is really only limited to short distances... he should be able to dominate sprint races in Japan, right? Maybe he could even try sprint races in Hong Kong or Australia?"

"Huh?" Before he could even react to the leg being pinched, Huiyi heard Big Tree Express praising him like that. His eyes twitched slightly. "Don't... don't flatter me like that. The short-distance speed there is so bad it would beat me to a pulp."

"We just want to make money—not challenge ourselves."

"No! Huiyi can't be so dejected! As a racehorse girl, you have to have a glorious and great goal!" Daiki Express suddenly grabbed her shoulders and shook her.

Kitahara pinched and squeezed his legs, then suddenly asked, "Huiyi, do you feel your legs are as sore as before?"

"Huh? No, I've been constantly improving. Now, I think I can run the 1300 with my peers!" Huiyi proudly patted her chest, proving that her occasional dedicated training was worthwhile.

Hearing this conversation, Big Tree Express racked its brains for a moment and asked uncertainly, "So... Shining's adaptability has been increasing?" This was a bit different from Big Tree Express's understanding, because generally speaking, racehorse girls' distance adaptability is fixed!

Aside from the kind of horse training maniac-like approach that artificially builds up adaptability... she seemed to have never heard of such a thing before.

However, the truth is that Huiyi's relaxed appearance and Beiyuan's tolerance do not reflect the intensity of Ninjama.

The task of explaining was left to the newly formed radiance, and Kitahara simply pulled Huiyi up.

"That's right, Huiyi is a gifted horse girl. Big Tree Express should find it hard to believe that she could barely run 1,000 meters when she first enrolled, right? Now she can handle 1,300 meters."

"What?! Is this really a racehorse girl with this kind of growth potential?!" Homo the Great Tree Express exclaimed, then covered her mouth and looked around to make sure no one else was paying attention before lowering her hand.

A radiant new light nodded slightly: "Hmm, but it also has a lot to do with Huiyi's serious attitude towards training. When she's playing, she doesn't think about training at all. It's a very enviable attitude towards life~"

"Gurgle—! Thank goodness... thank goodness I didn't encounter such an opponent back then." Although Huiyi isn't particularly outstanding in terms of adaptability and running skills right now, given Big Tree Express's rich experience in the race, Huiyi will at least shine in one area.

Another horse, Da Zhenhan, also lost to Donghai Diwang, but unlike Huiyi's crushing defeat, she only lost to Diwang by two body lengths in the 2000-meter training race, which is quite a monstrous result for a racehorse girl who has not yet debuted.

"That was a close call! I have to admit your skill! The Great Shock was truly impressive." The emperor said, wiping his sweat, his eyes filled with admiration for his junior.

The emperor suddenly felt that time had passed rather quickly. In the blink of an eye, he had become a senior mentoring younger racehorses, having just won two championships on the track years ago...

A slight cracking sound came from behind him. Still basking in the joy of being praised, Da Zhen turned around and saw Huiyi drinking a sports drink as if he were furious.

But she didn’t seem to realize that she had just bitten the bottle neck into her mouth.

----

Today I have to talk about something.

At noon, the Japanese server refreshed the Eight Horses illustration and got a Strong Strike reward, so I called my friend to try and get it.

I did manage to draw it, but what about my strong attack?

Oh, it's on someone else's phone!

Chapter 51 Nothing's more fun than my sister

Even though she knew the other party was a favored daughter of heaven, she still felt a little resentful. Huiyi chewed on the plastic sheet in her mouth. In any case, one of her dark thoughts was that she couldn't stand to see the other party doing well.

"What are you eating?!" The newly radiant heart was also exhausted. She reached out and pulled the plastic bottle out of Huiyi's mouth, then pinched her cheeks to make the plastic fall out of her mouth.

Throwing the bottle into the trash can, Radiant Brilliance said, "Remember to clean up the pieces of grass and put them in the trash can yourself. Radiant, why do you eat so many strange things every day?"

Sometimes I'm really curious about what these horse girls' digestive systems are made of, whether they eat plastic or weights...

With nothing in his mouth, Huiyi clicked his teeth together. He picked up the shards of food still covered in his saliva and threw them into the trash can. Then, he leaned his elbow against the trash can and waited for Beiyuan and Dashu to finish their conversation.

Thinking back carefully, it's been half a year since I enrolled. In the past six months, Huiyi seems to have been spending his time between the entertainment district and the academy. At the academy, his life has been a simple routine of going between the dormitory, classroom, and training ground. He hasn't even been home to Satomi...

"Tsk, how about I take some time to go home and visit them...? Even though they're my adoptive parents, they're still my saviors." Huiyi scratched his head. During the debut competition, his attention was focused on the bounty and first place, and he seemed to have forgotten that the Satomi couple and the three little ones were also watching the competition.

Although they called the three members up to interact during the winner's stage, they still didn't go to see the Satomi couple after the competition!

Huiyi was making plans in her mind, but her long-standing experience with interpersonal relationships made her worry that in the eyes of the Satomi couple, she might have become the kind of ungrateful ingrate who runs a racehorse... So she had to be sincere when she went back!

After both teams finished negotiating, they returned to the training room. As soon as they got back, Da Zhenhan and Huiyi were kicked out by their respective trainers to soak their feet.

The two horse girls sat facing each other. Huiyi looked down at her phone, and Da Zhenhan wanted to pick it up too, but found it on a table further away, and she couldn't reach it at all.

The current state of this server is really strange... I feel very embarrassed by the shock.

Huiyi was actually chatting with Satomi Osamu on a horse-riding platform, talking about his desire to go home and visit. After everything was settled, Satomi Osamu suddenly told Huiyi some news.

Satomi Osamu: Crown, Hikari, and Kita might come to visit you at the academy in the next couple of days. Ms. Surugawa should contact you then, so please take good care of them. I've also prepared your application for a three-night off-campus stay.

Huiyi: Huh?! Those three little ones came to see me and want to stay overnight? I... I... how could I possibly take care of those three rascals!

Satomi Osamu: We all think you can do it. The older sister is growing up, so she should take care of her younger sister. Has the next competition been scheduled?

Huiyi: It's all set... the Hakodate-Singapore-Malaysia Championship, but...

Satomi Osamu: Okay, we'll all be there that day! Your mother and I have some company business to attend to, and Crown and Diamond don't want to stay home either, so we'll have to trouble you.

Osamu Satomi has been logged out.

Huiyi gripped her phone, her hand trembling slightly, because she had no idea how to take care of children. Otherwise, after ten years, she wouldn't have only maintained a 40-50 level of affection with those three kids... After all, it's still quite nice to be able to get along well with children.

After all, given the horse girl's pure heart, it's unlikely that a small pony would be driving a large cart...

Seeing Huiyi's slightly trembling appearance, Da Zhen was both embarrassed and curious, so he asked, "Huiyi? What's wrong?"

Huiyi looked at Da Zhenhan with despair, her lips trembling: "Da Zhenhan... I probably won't be able to spend the next few nights in the dorm."

"Huh?! Could it be because... because you were threatened by some crazy livestream fan?!" Da Zhen was shocked to recall that time Huiyi was livestreaming wrapped in a bath towel... Although she claimed that she didn't have a camera on, Da Zhen had guessed that this was a lie Huiyi told to avoid losing face...

Could it be that she was caught red-handed that time, and then someone used this kind of dirty secret to threaten her after she became famous for winning the debut competition so well?

"What nonsense are you talking about? My parents have some things to take care of and don't have time to look after my younger sisters. They want to play with me... I can't let them stay in the hotel alone tonight." Huiyi sighed softly, and just as he was about to say something more, there was a knock on the door of the training room.

Along with that came the voice of Surugawa Tessuna: "Shirokoma-kun~!"

"Huh? Huh?!" A bewildered look met with utter shock. Satomi Osamu had just finished speaking, and the Satomi sisters and Kita had already arrived? What kind of light speed is this...?

Huiyi couldn't open the door, so Beiyuan went to open it. But what he saw first wasn't Junchuan's green figure, but three very small figures.

"These two are Huiyi's younger sisters, and this is their friend. This is Mr. Satomi Osamu's arrangement... so I'll trouble Trainer Kitahara as well?" Sugawa Tetsuya bowed slightly, conveyed the message, and then left.

Kitahara was still a little stunned. Kozumi, wearing a crown, and Kitahara greeted Kitahara, "Hello, Trainer Kitahara! Where's your sister?"

"Huiyi just finished a training match and is soaking her feet..." Beiyuan stepped aside to let the three little ones into the room, scratching his head, wondering if he had seen wrong.

Huiyi kept saying that she had a very poor childhood... but how come her younger sister is the Satomi sisters? Was the Satomi family abusive during her childhood?!

Shining Radiance arrived at the door at that moment, his gaze falling on the three figures. He asked Kitahara, "Trainer... who are these three...?"

“Ah, Satomi Crown and Satomi Diamond are Hikari’s younger sisters, and Kita Genko is their friend.” Kitahara rubbed his forehead, closed the door, and then looked over. Hikari was already being hugged by Crown and Diamond.
