As a horse girl, I will never lose!

"Well, well, 'Mejiro McQueen' is not far from falling from grace."

"Who are you?"

"I am the captain of the second squad of the Overlord's personal guard. Why, you don't want to obey?"

"Even if he faces Senior Mi Yu, Senior McQueen won't lose!"

"Damn it! Senior Emperor will definitely get his revenge!"

"Yes, yes, but please take a look at the popularity vote for this year's Osaka Cup."

In this year's Osaka Cup popularity vote, [Bawang] firmly took the first place with an unshakable number of votes.

Almost all fans chose to vote for [Ba Wang] in the ranking vote.

Undefeated three championships, consecutive wins in the Japan Cup and Arima Kinen, such strong players are all competing, do you still need to consider who to vote for? Before the game started, almost all voices on the Internet believed that [Bawang] was the winner of this competition. Some fans couldn't help but complain when they saw this grand occasion, saying that it was so exaggerated before the game started, and they would stack up the buffs.

Although no one thinks that [Bawang] will lose this game with his strength, the momentum is too exaggerated now. Instead, people can't help but worry about whether there will be any accidents in the game, causing [Bawang] to lose this game.

However, in the face of these voices, the vast majority of fans are still speaking.

"Impossible, Overlord is invincible!"

"You don't even look at [Bawang]'s performance at the end of the year. I was wondering who can rival [Bawang] this year!"

Looking at these comments on the Internet, everyone in the Spica team couldn't help but be surprised at the current popularity of [Bawang].

"He is truly worthy of being the new myth that stepped on the 'Emperor'. Now fans' worship of 'Overlord' is even more exaggerated than before when it came to the 'Emperor'." 'Golden Ship' was quite jealous of the number of followers on Mi Yu's account.

"I didn't expect that no one on the Internet was optimistic about the Revenge of the Emperor."

"This is normal. Fans on the Internet are like this. You don't need to take it to heart."

'Mejiro McQueen' doesn't care about these things at all, she is not even bothered to pay attention to these voices on the Internet.

"But the Emperor's avoidance of the match this time is indeed easy to be misunderstood. Although this voice is small, there are indeed people who say that the Emperor did not participate in the Osaka Cup this time because he was afraid of the rice bath."

"There is such a thing..."

Mejiro McQueen said, "You don't take such gossip to heart, do you?"

"…Why do you think I am affected by these remarks? Am I so fragile in your heart?"

The 'Emperor of the East China Sea' looked at 'McQueen' strangely. She always felt that 'McQueen' seemed to be looking down on her.

"No."

'Mejiro McQueen' explained: "I just don't want to lose a good opponent."

"Then don't worry, I will definitely let you experience the taste of failure."

"I feel relieved to see that you are still so confident, but I will not fail!"

Trainer Okino stood aside and did not participate in the discussion.

Although the reason why 'Emperor' avoided the Osaka Cup was not because he lacked the confidence to compete with [Bawang], to be honest, the reason why he made such an arrangement was actually because he was afraid of [Bawang]. He was worried that if 'Emperor' participated in this game, [Bawang] would use the effect of ZONE on 'Emperor' again, and then all the efforts of 'Emperor' in the past few months would be in vain.

Don't say that an 'Emperor' should have the confidence to defeat a 'Tyrant'.

Self-confidence and reality cannot be confused.

If the 'Emperor' was really sure that he could defeat the [Overlord], how could he make such an arrangement?

At the same time, in the old school building on the back hill of Tresen Academy.

After running a section of the track with a tire as high as a hill, Miura Bourbon stopped training. The sweat on her body evaporated and her concentration made her look extremely powerful. Kuronuma trainer looked at Miura Bourbon, who seemed to have been reborn, and felt a little shocked. He didn't dare to believe that this was the horse girl he trained.

Now, the training effect of Miura Bourbon has far exceeded his initial expectations.

He really couldn't imagine what kind of force could have caused Bourbon to degenerate to this point.

Can a spiritual breakthrough actually achieve such an effect?

Trainer Kuronuma, who originally believed more in data and theories, now once again deeply realized his shortcomings as a trainer.

If it was the previous him, there would be no way he could train Bourbon to this level.

His so-called perfect training plan, looking back from his current perspective, had too many flaws.

"Bourbon, the training is over. You should take a good rest in the next period of time and prepare for the next game."

Training to this point is already the limit.

The Black Marsh trainer has discovered that Bourbon has made basically no progress in recent times, which means that Bourbon's strength has reached a limit. If he wants to make another breakthrough, he can only rely on more opportunities.

But according to Kuronuma's knowledge, it was a miracle that Bourbon could reach this level. If he wanted to break through this limit again, it would be difficult to have another chance. But since the miracle had already happened once, who could say for sure that there wouldn't be a second time? Kuronuma trainer didn't dare to make a judgment based on his own knowledge, because Uma Musume was even more miraculous than he knew.

Hearing the trainer's instructions, Miura Bourbon quickly responded, "Yes, Master!"

Miura Bourbon is a horse girl who obeys her trainer's instructions very well. Although this special training was entirely due to her willfulness, she still maintains her original character in other matters and obeys her trainer's instructions 100%.

Therefore, when the Kuronuma trainer said that her training was over and she should rest, she did not show any resistance at all, even though deep down she was still full of doubts about whether she could challenge the [Overlord].

Trainer Kuronuma also noticed Miura Bourbon's nervousness, but he did not interfere in this matter because he had discovered the key to the horse girl's strength, and the growth of willpower was also crucial. In this regard, there was not much that the trainer could do, or in other words, Miura Bourbon had to overcome this growth herself!

At least now Bourbon will not be crushed by "Overlord" in terms of physical fitness like before. It has the qualifications to compete with it and will not be overwhelmed in momentum. The rest can only depend on its on-the-spot performance during the game.

As for skills and ZONE, there is really only so much a trainer can do. Especially for horse girls whose strength has reached this level, the general basic-level skills will not improve their strength much. As for higher-level skills, the trainer cannot guide them too much and can only point out a general training direction for the horse girls.

So let's take a rest now.

We have now gone as far as we can, Bourbon.

All that remains is to verify one's current strength in the competition.

The two packed up their things and returned to Tresen Academy from the old school building.

......

On the opening day of the Osaka Cup, under the bright sunlight, almost all seats in the venue were occupied.

“In the warm spring breeze, we welcome the first G1 middle-distance grass race of the year, the Osaka Cup. The players gathered here with everyone’s expectations. Which horse girl will be the winner of this race this year?”

"...Now on stage is No. 6, the third most popular player, who is expected to participate in the poetry drama. She has changed into a new winning uniform. Will she have a chance to win G1 this year?"

Dai Jian Shiju, who was waving to the audience, suddenly looked a little awkward when he heard the host's teasing.

She had never thought about that kind of thing.

And host, are you sure you are not cursing me?

Don’t you even look at the lineup for today’s game?

Last year, she never had a chance to outrun those two people, and this year...she probably doesn't have any chance either.

It’s not that Dai Jian poetry drama doesn’t have a competitive spirit, but that she knows herself well.

My strength is not even on the same level as those two people. How can I have a chance to beat them?

Unless they encounter an accident during the competition, but is it really possible that such a once-in-a-lifetime event will happen to her?

"Next is the second most popular player, No. 9, Miura Bourbon. Although her performance last year was disappointing, her popularity and strength are not behind at all. Her superb speed is one of the best among the active players. I look forward to her performance today!"

Miura Bourbon stood in front of the gate and took a deep breath.

She didn't go to watch 'Rice Bath' because she would use today's game to convey her feelings.

What she needs to do now is to concentrate all her energy on one point.

The players next to him could all feel that today's Miura Bourbon was exceptionally strong.

That kind of momentum and concentration makes people feel a huge pressure just by watching from the side.

"And then - today's protagonist is none other than this contestant. Popularity No. 2, No. , Mi Yu, the undefeated triple crown horse girl, this achievement is really too dazzling. Will this contestant show us his unparalleled strength again today and continue this undefeated myth? We can see that this contestant's popularity vote is also overwhelmingly strong, and he carries a lot of expectations!"

In the audience seats, the cheering voices gradually quieted down as they watched the contestants enter the gate.

Trainer P observed the players' conditions and his eyes stayed on Miura Bourbon.

"You've gotten stronger, Bourbon."

The changes in Miura Bourbon are obvious.

People who originally thought that there was no suspense in this match were a little shaken after seeing today's Miura Bourbon.

Compared to the [Overlord] who was like an endless abyss and could not be seen clearly, Miura Bourbon's condition today was very clear. Her powerful aura and posture made people feel her determination to win the game.

P even felt that he could see the former Mi Yu in today's Bourbon.

The obsession with victory is exactly the same.

Accompanied by the sound of the signal light.

The gate opened and the loud footsteps of the athletes were heard from the starting line.

'here we go! '

Miura Bourbon entered the Flow state in an instant, and his skills were released naturally like flowing water.

In just a moment, she was ahead of all the contestants and ran to the front.

"The race has begun. Miura Bourbon showed amazing speed right from the start and successfully took the lead!"

Mejiro Zenshin and Otaku Taiyangshen, who also used the explosive escape tactic, were left behind. The two looked at the figure in front of them with bright red air waves in disbelief, wondering why there was such a big gap between them who used the explosive escape tactic and that guy.

"Damn it, how can you reach such a speed in the first round! "

"This is not good. The rhythm of the game between me and Shan Xin Tan has been affected by Bourbon Sauce."

Both of them looked a little terrified.

Although the two of them had not thought about getting a good ranking at the beginning of the day, they did have some ideas. However, they did not expect that Miura Bourbon would put pressure on them just after the game began. Although they are both players of the escape tactics, they have just made the transition and obviously cannot keep up with the pace of Miura Bourbon, who has been specially trained for this running style.

But it was impossible for them to change their running style now, so they could only grit their teeth and keep up with Miura Bourbon.

"Contestant Mejiro Yoshinobu and Contestant Taiyoshin are following closely behind!"

"Next is the most popular person, Mi Yu, who calmly follows the Runaway Horse Group."

It can be seen that [Overlord] does not seem to be under any pressure at all, and follows Taituo Sun God with an expressionless face.

In comparison, the contestants behind had more or less changes in their expressions.

Because they never expected that they would encounter three escape contestants in one game.

When did players who use the escape tactic become so prevalent?

"If I continue running at this pace, I'll run out of energy before the last bend."

Ikuno Didus calculated a very unfavorable result for himself.

If possible, she really wanted to slow down the pace and not chase the three people who were escaping in front of her.

But I can't do it.

If there were only those three escapees running in the front now, then everyone might rationally choose to give way to those three in the early stage.

But the problem is that now [Ba Wang] chooses to follow the three who are escaping.

This means that they must also follow the rhythm.

No one would doubt the physical strength of [Ba Wang], because Mi Yu had already proved it to everyone during the chrysanthemum viewing.

In the audience, Mejiro McQueen said with a serious expression: "The rhythm of the game has been controlled by Mi Yu."

"Ah? How could that be? Isn't the rhythm of the game in the hands of Miura Bourbon now?"

Zhou was particularly puzzled. As Suzuka's roommate and good friend, she had done research on the escape method.

So she knew that in a game with a big escape, the rhythm in the early and middle stages of the game would be controlled by the big escape.

"No, although it is indeed a little unbelievable, it is indeed as McQueen said. Now the rhythm of this game is under the control of Mi Yu, unless Miura Bourbon, Aeolus and the other three can get rid of Mi Yu now."

The 'Emperor of the East China Sea' agreed with 'McQueen's' opinion.

She was feeling a little uneasy. In the audience, she could feel the power of Overlord more clearly.

"I couldn't see her releasing any skills at all, but it's impossible that she didn't release any skills. This speed is totally abnormal."

Different from ordinary Uma Musume contestants.

Generally, when a horse girl releases a skill, a glow of the skill will appear on her body.

However, [Overlord] was always covered with a dark aura, which completely swallowed up the brilliance of the skill.
