As a horse girl, I will never lose!

You...will be my opponent?

Beibu Xuanju smiled and said, "I don't think I can be your opponent."

Satomi Crown wanted to say something, but Kitagawa Xuanju had already turned around and walked towards his starting position.

"Crown, what's wrong with you? This behavior is not like you normally."

Miss Guang Zuan felt that her sister was a little crazy today.

She also didn't think that the students from the north were qualified to be Crown's rivals.

If it were other students, it would be understandable, but if it were students from the northern part, it would be too strange.

Because the current performance of students in the North cannot compete with Crown.

Satomi Crown was silent.

She couldn't say that she did it because of a feeling.

But only she can understand this feeling.

"Xiao Zuan, I'm fine. I'd rather say that I'm more serious today than usual."

There was no intention of explaining to Guang Zuan, Crown just confirmed his own thoughts.

Satomi Mitsuzu watched Crown walk away and couldn't understand why Crown was so concerned about the north.

Although she has been constantly testing Beifang recently, she still can't see what's so special about Beifang that deserves Crown's attention. Or is there really something she hasn't noticed?

She looked at Northern Xuanju's back.

(No, let’s focus on the game for now. If Kita-san really has something to hide, it should be revealed in this game.)

Satomi Mitsuzu also returned to his position.

At this time, all the players have arrived at their positions.

Compared to regular Uma Musume competitions, elementary school students' competitions do not have prepared gates.

After all, if you want to prepare a gate, you need to customize it to suit the height of elementary school students.

So the school just drew the gates and numbers at the starting line-up.

The position of the northern black puppie is number 4.

Located close to the inside of the track.

But to be honest, she didn't care where it was.

After all, she inherited the all-track adaptability from her predecessors.

Whether it is inside or outside, whether it is clockwise or counterclockwise, whether it is good field or bad field——

Her northern black colt has full adaptive skills.

(Although this isn’t a formal race, this is what it feels like to be on the track.)

There is no excitement, nor anxiety, only a calm mind that seems to be able to control everything.

It seems that as long as he wants, he can control the rhythm of the game at any time.

There really is no surprise.

Beibu Xuanju confirmed once again that she had no interest in the competition and she had no desire to win.

"The child number 4 is in very good condition. Do you have any information about that child?"

What Beibu Xuanju didn't know was that the temperament that she inadvertently revealed was so dazzling to those sharp-eyed trainers and reporters. After all, eyes can't lie.

"Hmm? A horse girl of commoner origin? Her father is a famous singer, and her mother is just a horse girl of no fame. Her grades in school are usually at the bottom. Am I seeing things?"

After learning about Northern Black Horse's background and usual performance, many people suspected that they had made a mistake, but some people remained firm in their opinions.

"No, even if the child's performance is average now, it is not wrong. This child has that kind of potential. I have seen so many horse girls, and those strong players almost all have one common feature, that is, the confidence that overflows in front of the gate. This child already has this now!"

"But her usual grades can't be faked."

“Haha, that’s even more amazing.”

The seniors did not explain.

But now they all feel that they may have struck gold.

What can one’s usual grades represent, especially when they are from elementary school?

Rather, it is not easy for contestant No. 4, who is usually the last in the rankings, to show such temperament when entering the competition. This further proves that contestant No. 4 already possesses something that others do not have.

Perseverance in goals, confidence in one's own abilities, and fearlessness for the future!

He has developed this mentality at such a young age. This child’s future is worth looking forward to!

While Beibu Xuanju was still thinking about how to lose the game, she didn't know that she had attracted the attention of many people in the circle, and these people even added a thick filter to her.

For these sharp-eyed insiders.

The temperament of the Northern Black Horse cannot be hidden.

You know, even for a freak like [Golden Ship], before her debut, there were trainers who could see that her strength was not simple, not to mention Northern Black Horse, who was just a slacker who could only pretend his performance.

The music for the start sounded and all the contestants took their starting positions.

"Beep——"

With the starting whistle, all the runners rushed from the starting line to the track together.

Beibu Xuanju didn't want to lose the game too badly, so she chose to take the lead. Her idea was to show exhaustion and slow down in the middle and late stages, but the moment she took the lead, she felt that something was wrong. It was not that she had exposed too much of her strength, but the performance of the other players was so bad that she couldn't even believe it. They couldn't even display the strength they showed in training!

Northern Xuanju felt depressed.

(Trouble, have they forgotten everything the teacher taught in class? They didn’t pay attention to their own running rhythm at all, they just wanted to run in front.)

Yes, except for a few players, most of the players are competing for the top position.

Her original idea was simply impossible to implement under such circumstances.

Because of her status as the last one, it is impossible for her to compete with other contestants under such circumstances.

(What to do? I have to step back temporarily, and then grab a spot at the end...)

No, no!

Even if you get the desired ranking, your performance will be too conspicuous.

But now...

As the first bend got closer, Northern Xuanju knew he was running out of time.

She considered how to control her own strength in advance, but did not think about the situation of other contestants.

She originally thought that this was just a sports competition, not much better than normal training, and that the other players' performance should not be too bad, but she still overestimated the mentality of the other players.

Because they all wanted to run well, but ended up running worse than usual.

It didn't seem so obvious when she was watching from the sidelines, because all the contestants' performances were similar, but when she entered the competition as a contestant, she found that the performances of the other contestants were really outrageous.

I don't care about the running method or the rhythm, I just want to win.

The skills I learned in daily life were not used at all, and my brain was completely blank.

It’s really unbelievable, are these really the elites of Umamusume Elementary School?

"I knew it! That girl is a horse girl who is used to the official competition!"

Although it is only the distance from the starting line to the first bend, Northern Black Horse's current performance is already eye-catching enough, especially when compared to the other players who are all very weak.

"How could that be? Isn't her usual performance ranked last? But now her performance is like this..."

"Don't be surprised. Training and competition are different. Some players perform very well during training, but once they get to the official competition, their condition becomes very poor, and they can't even play half of their usual strength. Now other players are in this situation, but No. 4 is different. She is not affected by the competition at all, and she perfectly played the strength she accumulated in her daily life in this competition!"

"I see. Then, Senior, can number 4 win today?"

"Well, it's a bit difficult. After all, besides her, the two young ladies of the Satomi family are also in good shape. Especially Satomi Crown looked quite strong today. In addition, several other players also performed very well. Judging from No. 4's usual training results, it should be difficult for him to win."

But even if he loses today's game, he believes that No. 4 will become a powerful horse girl in the future.

Because she possesses that quality, the kind that even if she is not favored at the beginning, but the moment the game starts, people will feel that this horse girl is not simple, the kind of quality that allows her to adapt to the game!

[Chapter 186: The Exposed Northern Black Horse! ]

Beibu Xuanju looked back and saw the astonished looks on the other contestants’ eyes. They seemed surprised why they couldn’t get to the front and why she, the last-place finisher, could snatch the first place from them.

Really speechless.

Do you really think you can win if you don't choose a running style and rhythm that suits you?

If I didn't know you didn't have such intentions, I would have suspected that you were playing me!

(Impossible, how can the Northern students run so fast?)

(I can’t catch up. During training, the students from the North always run at the back. Why?)

An emotion of disbelief spread among the front-ranked contestants.

Precisely because they were classmates who knew each other well, they were so surprised when they saw Beibu Xuanju's performance. They never thought that they had become weaker.

During normal training, the teacher will be responsible for instructing their running methods and positions. Even if they cannot find the running method that best suits them, it will at least be a running method that is closer to their foot conditions.

However, during the competition, without a teacher to direct and supervise them, they forgot everything they had learned and only thought about running faster. They did not pay any attention to the running method or the rhythm of the competition.

Can the Northern Black Horse show stronger strength?

No.

Her control over her own strength can be said to be at an inhuman level, and controlling her output is extremely easy.

The strength she displayed now was the strength she had gained from her usual training.

It’s just that she always ran at the back of the pack during training in the past, but today she chose to take the lead.

However, she had not intended to influence the tempo of the game by taking the lead, nor did she use the skill of escape, but the tempo of other players was still affected by her leading.

What a joke, if they were running seriously, they wouldn't be affected by something like this.

The people of Xuanju in the north were all numb.

At this time, she couldn't retreat even if she wanted to, because it would be too easy for people to see that she did it on purpose. Could some player come forward?

As for the contestants behind her, she no longer counts on them.

It’s good enough that these guys don’t lose their temper prematurely, how can you expect them to speed up?

The current situation of the game is roughly like this.

The horse girl, who was not good at taking the lead, ran to the front, wanting to compete with the northern black horse for the leading position. The players who were supposed to have the leading footwork were affected by other players and now fell to the middle or even further back, so they were unable to perform to their due strength in this competition.

Such a serious mistake can only be attributed to the fact that they are just elementary school students. They are completely unable to control their emotions, have no understanding of the quality of their feet, and are simply running the race based on their mood.

This approach is not impossible.

But the prerequisite is that she must be strong enough and have strong perception. However, a horse girl with these qualifications is already qualified to aspire for the monster level, so how could she appear in such a place?

However, at the back, Satomi Mitsuzumi, Satomi Crown, and several other players performed well.

Because they all have the qualities of being able to run in the middle and be ahead, they won't go wrong as long as they run in the middle position.

Entering the first corner.

Beibu Xuanju's eyes looked somewhat helpless.

Faced with this situation, she really couldn't think of any solution.

If she had known that these guys would make such a serious mistake, she should have done the same thing before. However, she had already shown something when she just started running. If she pretended to make a mistake now, it would only make people wonder if she did it on purpose. It would be better for her to run ahead for the time being and wait for an opportunity.

(Is that really a classmate from the north?)

Satomi Mitsuzu was in the middle of the queue, looking at Kita no Xuanju at the front with a look of surprise on his face.

During training, Northern Black Colt had never taken the lead, so Satomi Mitsuzumi didn't know that Northern Black Colt would start so fast, and he took the lead in an instant.

You have to know that during this period, basically most students want to take the lead. They don’t care whether they have the footwork or not, they just simply want to run ahead of everyone else.

So it is very difficult to get the front position.

But at the same time, students who know the concept of running at this stage are often invincible.
