I'm Ornn, and I'm about to be beaten to my knees by the Man-eating Horse Girl!

"Oh, look, the contestants have started entering the gate."

On the racetrack, the female horses have finished their display phase and are beginning to enter the gates one after another.

Shining Radiance held binoculars, intently watching the dashing Akitsu Emperor as he entered the gate. Fujimasa March, however, didn't immediately put the binoculars in front of her. She asked, "Tamamo... what running style will she choose this time?"

"At the forefront? In the middle? Or catching up?"

Orn stroked his chin, shook his head, and said softly, "I don't know... Komiyama is being quite mysterious, refusing to tell me."

"But the truth will come out soon, won't it?"

"哐——!!!"

Even from a distance of over a thousand meters, the sound of the gates opening was enough to echo throughout the entire stadium.

The commentator's booming voice echoed through the stadium amidst the cheers of the audience. Oguri-hat frowned slightly, and her ears involuntarily twitched from side to side.

"Oh, I almost forgot about that,"

Orn then took out something that looked like earmuffs from his pocket and clipped them onto the ears of the chestnut hat.

"Feel with your heart, and don't let other things influence you."

Little Chestnut Hat looked at Orn's gestures and nodded knowingly. Then she took a deep breath and stared intently at the white figure that seemed to have arrived late.

"Oh dear? Tamamo is... late?! Is it because she was too nervous?! Or is it because of the psychological trauma she suffered before??"

The speaker was Trainer Okino, but now his right cheek was swollen and red, and his earlobe seemed to have become swollen as well.

Liu Ping flicked the ash from his cigarette and shook his head, saying, "No, that's not it. She deliberately chose to come out late."

"Am I right? Komiyama?"

"Komiyama?"

Rokuhei turned back to look at Tamamo Cross's trainer with some confusion. Komiyayama's expression of surprise was even more exaggerated than Okino's.

Her mouth was wide open, and her tongue was sticking out. Clearly, she hadn't expected Tamamo Cross to dare to do this in the competition!

Komiya muttered, "No... I can't reach it!? Tama didn't tell me to use the chasing running technique!!"

Hearing Komiyayama's answer, Okino frowned and said, "That's not good. Tamamo Cross is currently in the middle to the back. If she can't adjust her speed quickly, she will be stuck in the crowd at the third bend."

"The key to this race lies in whether she can break away from the crowd at the third corner of the 1300-meter mark and the final corner of the 1600-meter mark, and establish her lead,"

"But now it seems that Emperor Akitsu might not give her that chance!"

Just as Okino said, after only 500 meters, Akitsu Teio had already pulled away from Tamamo Cross by nearly 12 horse lengths at the first bend, and the gap between her and the second-place runner was widening!

Just like her previous victories in the Autumn Emperor's Slam and the Mile Championship, Akitsu Taihou once again chose to flee in this match. The others present seemed unable to use their skills to stop her speed, and could only watch helplessly as she accelerated forward.

"Very strong...her physical strength is almost twice that of me now..."

Watching the kimono-clad girl rushing forward in the frame of the mirror, Fujimasa March began to mentally assess the difference in their physical strength.

As a horse girl who also excels in "Great Escape," she understands even better than Shining Radiance how much stamina is required to maintain a lead throughout the entire match.

Based on her current physical condition, she might be able to keep up for the 900-meter distance between the first and second bends, but once she passes the second bend and begins heading towards the third bend, her stamina will be insufficient to support such high-intensity competition.

Because what restricts Akitsu Teikoku in the arena is not only the interference skills of other riders, but also another potential enemy, which is a point that many new riders might not notice.

"It's the slope,"

"The gradient... there's a huge uphill section in the final sprint at Hanshin Racecourse!!"

The wind pressure when leading, the final sprint uphill, the targeting from other female riders, and the immense psychological pressure all combine to create an incredibly complex and brutal race.

Fujimasa pursed her lips. If she were in the position of the current Akitsu Emperor, she probably could only last 500 meters before being crushed by his and Ma Musume's overwhelming power.

Even under these circumstances, Akitsu Teio proved with her actions that a horse girl who can participate in G1-level races will never be so easily crushed!

Not only is her physical strength unmatched, but her power is also unparalleled!

Holding the binoculars, Xin Guanghui exclaimed, "My God! She accelerated again!? This is the third time she's accelerated!! She still has stamina!?"

"So strong...too strong!! Will we face opponents like this in the future!?"

"If it really comes down to fighting, I'd rather fight Ryoumen Sukuna!!"

Ornn ignored the strange cry of the newly radiant light beside him, his gaze fixed on the white figure hidden behind the crowd. Suddenly, he reached out and patted the back of the little chestnut hat.

"coming!"

Almost at the same instant, Oguri Hat shuddered, as if she had suddenly been immersed in ice water.

Then, her body began to tremble slightly.

Oguri Hat felt it; even though she and her roommate were nearly 700 meters apart, she still felt it.

That was half a month ago, during the final 300-meter sprint, accompanied by Sakura Chiyo's roar, a sense of urgency surged through my body.

Even though she wasn't on the field, her heart was starting to race.

Oguri was already very good at judging the timing of matches, and after losing his hearing, this ability was further enhanced.

Watching the white light gradually shimmering on the field, she murmured, "Is this Xiaoyu's... domain?"

Chapter 132 Thunder

"Yo! Tamamo-chan, you're practicing again today?"

"Ah, right, here we are again!"

A middle-aged man with a stubble put down the package he was carrying, looked at the short, bouncy boy in front of him who wasn't even as tall as his thigh, and sighed, "Training on your own in private isn't a good habit, is it?"

"If no one is supervising you, it would be bad if you fell and bumped into something. There are no hospitals around our Hokkaido ranch, and only that guy Wada knows a little about medicine. If you get injured, it will be troublesome!"

The little horse wagged its tail, pointed at another middle-aged man who was about to slip away, and said with a grin, "Ah! Uncle Yejin! You don't need to worry about that! We have someone to guide us!"

"He said he retired from Central Tresson! And the methods he taught me were really useful!"

The bearded man known as Uncle Nogishi frowned, looked at the man whistling and moving to the other side, and shouted angrily, "Wada Ryuzo! I'll... I'll beat you to death!!"

Having said that, he grabbed a broom from the side and swung it at the whistling uncle on the head.

"Hey! Nojin! A gentleman uses words, not fists! Put down the broom first... Hey, damn it! You're really going to hit me!!"

Nojin showed no mercy. He swung his weapon and struck Wada's buttocks, producing a loud cracking sound.

The short horse girl was stunned by this sudden turn of events. She couldn't understand why the kind-hearted Uncle Nogi would suddenly attack the former Central Training Officer who had kindly taught her. So she quickly stepped forward and pulled him away.

She asked anxiously, "Uncle Nogishi! Why did you hit him? He's a retired Central Training Officer!"

Ryuzo Wada, who had just been spanked, nodded and said, "Yeah, yeah, Nogishi, even if you're going to take action, at least give me a reason first, right?"

Uncle Yejin was so angry he laughed. He pointed at the so-called retired trainer from the Central Training Institute and spat, "I know exactly how many hairs are on this guy's ass!! If he's a trainer from the Central Training Institute, then I'm the chairman of the board of directors of the Central Training Institute!!"

"Tamamo!! You've been fooled by this guy!! He's not a trainer at all! He's just the vice principal of this ranch!!"

"What?!?!"

Tamamo Cross's young heart was deeply traumatized. Disheartened, she let go of his hand and murmured, "Then... then the [Nine Heavens Thunder Double Kicks] you gave me before was also fake?"

Wada shrank back somewhat guiltily and whispered, "So...so..."

"What about the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception and Imagine Breaker?!"

"Ah... I copied that from '100 Secrets to Running Training,' which by the way costs 100 yen."

"..."

"Go ahead, Uncle Nojin. This kind of scum who deceives little girls has no reason to live in the world."

Nogi snorted coldly. Now that Tamamo Cross had given the order, he no longer needed to hold back.

"Wada Ryuzo, if I don't beat you until your face is covered in bruises today, you won't know why flowers are so red!!"

"Hey! Take this!!"

Wada immediately took off running, dodging Nojin's sticks while pleading, "Hey! Nojin-ge! Please! We've been buddies for decades! There are kids watching here! Give me some face! Oh crap!"

Unable to dodge in time, Hetian received another blow to the buttocks.

Meanwhile, the horse girls who were staying and training at the ranch all peeked out of the windows. After discovering that it was Nonishi again beating Wada, they all laughed.

Arima-chan pointed at Wada and said, "Haha, everyone look! Uncle Wada got beaten up by Nonishi again! He must have gone out to steal the neighbor's chicken to roast and eat and got caught again!"

Despite the wild blows from Nojin's sticks, Wada Ryuzo could still hear the jeers of the children watching.

His eyes widened in shock and anger as he exclaimed, "You! How dare you slander my innocence like this!"

"Haha! What innocence! I saw you stealing radishes from Grandma Ando's house next door yesterday! She beat you with a rattan cane! She hung you up and beat you until your butt was all swollen!"

Uncle Hetian's face flushed red, and he said stiffly, "Stealing radishes isn't stealing...stealing radishes! That's an adult's business! How can that be called stealing?!"

Then came incomprehensible phrases, such as "I am poor, therefore I steal" and "what is it?", which made everyone burst into laughter, and the entire ranch was once again filled with a lively atmosphere.

After giving him a lecture, Uncle Nojin sent Wada to help prepare dinner in the kitchen.

He squatted down next to the short horse girl, shaking his head with a smile, and said, "Hmph, that guy Hetian has never been honest."

"Don't be disappointed in Tamamo-no-Mae. Although he's usually a bit of a rascal, he did indeed hang out in the local Teresan area before."

Tamamo Cross looked up at the man beside her, her eyes filled with anticipation, and asked, "Then...that means! We can use everything he taught us!? We can fly over rooftops and unleash sword energy with a flick of our wrist!?"

"..."

Nogishi paused for a moment, then said, "No, I don't think even the current number one racehorse girl in Japan could do something like that. It's just too exaggerated."

"There may be such scenes in some Hong Kong martial arts films, but in reality, I have never seen such a reclusive master."

Tamamo Cross slumped her head in disappointment, muttering, "So this is fake! How awful... Uncle Nogishi, you should have punched him more!!"

"Don't worry, I'll deal with him later."

Ye Jin squatted down beside the short horse girl, looked at the simple running track in the pasture not far away, and then said, "Hehe, but I do know some running techniques, you know? Do you want to give it a try?"

Tamamo Cross's ears twitched, and she turned to look at Nogishiki, asking excitedly, "Really!? You really know how to run!?"

Uncle Nojin scratched his head and laughed, "Ah, although it's not as good as a trainer, at least it can give you a foundation now!"

"Then it's a promise! You'll coach my training! We'll become Japan's number one female racehorse!!"

"Number one in Japan... Not very big, but quite the boast... Hey! Don't bite me!"

Nogishi shook his hand, which had almost been bitten by the wild horse, stood up, pointed to the playground, and said, "Alright, Tamamo, go run a lap first."

"Hmm... As for the distance, let's start with 600 meters!"

"it is good!!"

The moment running is mentioned, the petite horse girl's interest immediately rises.

She jumped onto the track, waved to Ye Jin, and immediately started running around the ranch's small playground.

Nojin took out a pocket watch from his pocket and began to record Tamamo Cross's running time.

"Wow! 55.2! That's a pretty good result for a girl like me who's running for the first time!"

"Hmph! Of course! Hehe... I'll just say I'm a genius!!"

"53.4? You can improve your speed by 2 seconds after only two or three days of training? That's really impressive!"

"Hmm~~ Uncle Nogishi, we saw Uncle Wada stealing things from next door again today!! He even gave me a radish and told me not to tell you!"

"53.1, by the way, I already taught Hetian a lesson yesterday. How could that guy still offer bribes? The harm he's causing to Ma Niang... is immeasurable!!"

"Ha...ha...Uncle Nojin, I really want to know how to run it! I'll improve tomorrow!"

"49.5, maybe you really are a genius. You've only been training for two months and you've already improved so much. But it's also possible that you've just started your first full-fledged training."

"Honka-style? What's that?"

"46.1, hmm, it seems that the standardization has indeed had an effect. Tamamo, look how much taller you've become. You used to only reach my thigh, but now you're almost up to my waist!"

"Hmph! I'll keep growing taller! I'll be as tall as you this year, Uncle!"

"43.4, tsk tsk tsk, it seems you've always been this short. Your first major transformation should be over by now, right?"

"Hmm... That's not necessarily true! There are also examples of people who continued to grow even after their orthodox development stopped!"

"40.4, cough cough, Tamamo, why don't you try to get into Central soon? You're very strong. As long as you participate in the debut battle, you can successfully enroll in Central. It's much better than the ranch."

"Uncle...do you want us to leave the ranch?"

"39.1, you really are a genius, you were absolutely right! Cough cough!! Cough!! So, did you pass the central government's exam?"

"We've passed the test, and one trainer is already willing to sign a contract with us."
