I, the horse racing girl, really didn’t sprint!

back to the front.

Next to the tree hole there is a square tent with the words "Divination with skin but no inside" written on it. That is the divination shop where Dai Jian Fulai is located. As for why it is opened next to the tree hole.

Perhaps it is so that the horse girl who lost the game can go to the divination after crying to know what her fortune will be in the next game.

Barbatos complained in his heart.

Of course, Dai Jianfulai can be called a "half-immortal" because he has real skills. He can often predict things very accurately and provide effective solutions.

After opening the tent, Barbatos and the others walked in and heard a voice.

"Oh? There are customers at this hour."

"Barbatos?!"

There was a hint of surprise in his words.

Barbatos looked over and saw Uma Musume wearing the same school uniform as herself, with orange hair and a pair of starry eyes. This was the Taikan Fulai that she and Xingyun Tiankong were looking for this time.

Fukurai Taikan is a horse girl of the same generation as Suzuka Mushi. She is a horse girl of the Kikuka Sho and won the Kikuka Sho classic event last year. Barbatos has been paying attention to her and thinks she is a possible opponent for him to fight in the future, so he can recognize her at a glance.

And there was another horse racing girl next to Daikan Fukulai. She didn't seem like a guest, but more like a partner or assistant.

At first glance, that horse racing girl gave people a weak feeling, and she was not a horse racing girl of their generation.

But as for this horse girl, Barbatos was impressed by her.

There have been many talented horse girls in history, but people often only remember the strongest one. Just like among the "Heisei Three Heroes", people often only remember Oguruma, and most people have forgotten Kobayashi, Inariichi, Tamamo Cross and others.

It was only through the previous relay race within the school that their stories and their glory were once again brought before people's eyes.

But the horse racing girl in front of us, her brilliance was overshadowed by the overlord of the end of the century - good opera, but her name has always been mentioned and talked about by people.

Good Opera has won 7 G1 races and is the first horse girl to win 7 championships since Emperor Rudolf.

And in four of Good Opera’s seven G1 victories, this horse girl took second place.

It just goes to show that no one will remember the second place unless you are second every time.

Therefore, many horse racing enthusiasts will use the name of this horse racing girl instead of the word "second", which is "Nu Tao".

Her full name is "Famous General Nu Tao"!

Maybe no one remembers how many G1 championships she has won, but everyone knows that "Raging Fire" means second.

"Fulai-san, Nutao-senpai, I'd like to ask for a talisman for my friend Ulala."

Barbatos didn't say much and went straight to the point.

She didn't ask why Daikan Fukulai knew her, because there was no need. As horse girls of the same generation, they would do some research on the opponents they might encounter and would watch their game videos many times to analyze their strategies.

As for Ulala's debut competition, Ulala and Daijian Fulai are classmates, so Daijian Fulai must know about the debut competition, so it won't be surprising.

"Ulala's debut competition? Actually, I've already given her an amulet."

"Has it been delivered?"

Barbatos was stunned, but he thought that considering Ulala's ability to make friends, she must have a good relationship with Daijian Fulai. Since the little friend was going to have a debut competition, there was no reason for Fulai, who was a half-immortal, not to give him a talisman.

"It's okay. You gave it to me before, but I haven't. So can I ask for a talisman from Fulai?"

"of course can."

Dai Jianfulai did not refuse but agreed happily, and was also happy that Barbatos asked for the amulet for Ulala.

"By the way, do you want to tell my fortune for Ulala's debut competition?"

"My luck in the debut competition? Will I lose?"

Nu Tao, an accomplice, whispered beside Fu Lai, and everyone could hear it. It was not that she was pessimistic about Ulala, but she just kept talking like that because of her personality.

"There's no need for luck, it's all about athletic ability. Wulala works so hard, I believe she can win!"

Barbatos waved his hand and declined the divination.

Divination might be very effective in the hands of Daijian Fulai, but whether good or bad, if Ulala knew about it, it might affect the status of the game, so there was no need for it.

She also believed that Ulala, who had worked so hard for so long, would be able to win.

Seeing that Barbatos refused, Dai Jianfulai did not force him, but handed the amulet to Barbatos.

"By the way, will you attend the Takarazuka Kinen?"

"of course."

"Will Fulai also participate?"

"No way."

Wait until Barbatos took the amulet and left the fortune-telling shop with Nebula Sky.

Dai Jianfulai twisted his body in the chair, looking as if he was enduring some discomfort.

After thinking about it, she couldn't help but stretch her hands towards the crystal ball for divination. She didn't want to divine for Ulala's debut match, but wanted to divine for the Takarazuka Kinen.

This time, the Takarazuka Kinen will feature the participation of the legendary horse racing girl, "Empress".

Let’s add to that the two geniuses of the time, Barbatos and Silent Suzuka.

In addition to these three, there are other strong people in the G1 level, which makes Taijian Fulai, who likes and is good at divination, a little excited and curious.

I want to use divination to see what the final outcome of this game will be.

What kind of luck will the two horse girls, known as the geniuses of the time, have when facing the legend, and what can other powerful people do.

Chapter 245 Kochi Racecourse

Kochi Prefecture.

A not-so-remarkable day.

Compared to Central Tresen Academy and the bustling locations of Japan's four major horse racing venues, this place seems much quieter.

The streets are also particularly sparsely populated. In this country with a small population, young people often choose to live and work in big cities.

Even the area of ​​the Kochi Racecourse seems small, and the number of spectator seats is also much smaller.

But even so, the seats at the Kochi Racecourse were still sparsely populated with not many people coming to watch.

"Damn it! It's Ulala's debut competition, why is there no one watching!!!"

The twin turbos complained somewhat angrily.

As Canopus' teammates, Twin Turbo and the others naturally had to cheer for Ulala on the spot, especially since Barbatos and Nebula Sky had put aside their practice to come to the Japan Oaks and Japan Derby.

Those of them who don't have any competitions to participate in at the moment will naturally not come.

"You can't say that."

Ikuno Didus responded, "Maybe you're used to watching Xiaoba and Xingyun's matches before, so you have some misunderstandings about the debut match."

"There were a lot of people watching Xiaoba's debut."

Twin Turbos retorted unconvincedly, remembering when Barbatos debuted, although it was also a junior competition, they could see through the live broadcast that there were at least more than 10,000 people in the Hanshin Racecourse.

As a result, it’s hard to say whether there are a thousand people at Ulala’s debut competition.

This difference can be seen at a glance even with a twin-turbo.

If Barbatos' subsequent matches were always packed with people and tickets were hard to come by, Barbatos was still an unknown team during their debut match.

"This is Kochi," Ikuno Didus added somewhat helplessly, "Not every place has horse racing like the one in central Kochi."

Her words did not mean that people in Kochi did not like to watch horse racing, nor did she mean that few people in Kochi liked to watch horse racing. There was no such statement.

Among the high school residents, there are certainly many who are paying attention to the Classic class, the mare class Triple Crown events, and the central G series races.

But they don't seem to care too much about the local competitions in Kochi.

Especially in Japan, where the theory of bloodline is quite common, there is often a theory that only the central horse girls are the powerful ones. It was also in the Heisei era that the appearance of the local horse girl Oguruma broke this "common sense".

But even so, the powerful local horse girls were recruited to the central Tresen Academy to compete in the central competition.

Therefore, local competitions are no longer exciting, and local horse racing girls seem mediocre.

Just ask those who are used to watching the central Uma Musume competition, how can they pay special attention to local competitions, even if that person is a local.

If local horse racing events are an expression of love for horse racing, it is more likely because people cannot go to the central government to watch the races, so they take a step back and come to the local horse racing clubs to watch.

It’s not that there is no one who supports local horse racing girls, but compared to the central horse racing girls, there are far fewer of them.

"The races that Xiaoba is currently participating in are all held at the four major racecourses, and the races are the type that everyone pays attention to, so there is such a huge contrast."

After Ikuno Didus finished explaining, Xingyun Tiankong said, "Actually, there are quite a lot of people here today."

“Before, there were probably only a few hundred people watching the races at Kochi Racecourse.”

In this situation, it can be said that the Kochi Racecourse is on the brink of bankruptcy, or that most of the local racecourses are in this situation.

All the great horse racing girls have gone to the central government, so why don’t people watch the central government’s competitions?

"So, the Ulala race actually has more people?"

Twin Turbo came to this conclusion with her already impoverished brain and muttered, "But it still feels like there are so few people. I hope the number of people for the debut competition can be as large as a minibus."

Several people heard the muttering of the twin turbos, but all smiled and said nothing.

In fact, they all more or less speculated that the reason why there were more than a thousand people participating in Ulala's debut competition was related to Canopus.

Even without counting the successful debuts of Didos Ikuno, Excellent Quality, and Taikan Poetry Drama, the brilliance of Barbatos and Nebula Sky is already dazzling enough, making people look forward to whether there will be another talented horse girl in Canopus.

Even if this horse girl chose to debut in Kochi.

It is not uncommon for horse girls from the central area to choose to debut in the local area. This means that the trainer does not have enough confidence in the horse girl to debut in the central area, or the horse girl's ability is not enough to debut in the central area.

Therefore, I chose to debut in a local competition to accumulate confidence and experience, and then step into the central competition arena in the future.

But...what if?

What if there were other reasons for debuting in Kochi? After all, there was a sense of hometown, and Umamusume wanted to debut in her hometown.

While Barbatos and the others were chatting, the sound of the live broadcast came through the loudspeaker. The sound of the loudspeaker was not very clear, with some noise, describing the current dilapidated state of the Kochi Racecourse.

The participating horse racing girls appeared one by one under the guidance of the live broadcast, stood on the stage, and stood in front of the Kochi audience.

"The next contestant is from Central Tresen Academy, Team Canopus. She's an incredibly popular horse girl in this competition—Ulala!"

A series of prefixes were spoken in the live broadcast, telling the extraordinary story of Ulala, the horse racing girl.

"It is said that she and Barbatos entered Barbatos together, and they were very good friends before. Let us wait and see whether she can show the same invincible attitude as Barbatos in this match!"

Ulala, who was wearing sportswear on the stage, reached out and shook it off, showing her handsomeness, calmness and confidence, as if the game was already in her pocket and there was no possibility that there was an opponent who could defeat her.

The audience in the stands were cheering as they were looking forward to Ulala's appearance. The central horse girl, a good friend who entered Tresen with Barbatos, is now participating in her debut competition in Kochi. How could the local audience in Kochi not be excited?

At least in this local OP event, Ulala is definitely the most popular!

Almost all the audience here came for Ulala.

"This live broadcast is a pressure boy, right? Can it be so stressful?"

Barbatos in the audience couldn't help but complain in his mind, but fortunately, according to Ulala's personality, she would probably not be affected by this and it would not affect her performance in her debut competition.

Chapter 246: An Old Friend Whose Name Cannot Be Recalled

Kochi Racecourse.

Ulala, who was participating in the competition for the first time, looked around at the audience who were cheering for her, her eyes flashing, and she felt an irrepressible excitement and joy in her heart.

Even though the game hasn't started yet, and even compared to the minibus, the number of spectators on the scene can be said to be pitifully small.

Even so, Ulala still felt a great sense of satisfaction.

As a horse racing girl, she has always hoped that one day she can run on the track, run in front of the audience, and compete with other horse racing girls.

It was also for this reason that she had been practicing hard, following the pace of the Holy King Halo, and she had never fallen behind in her practice.

And today is the day she participates in the competition for the first time!

Following the staff's instructions, she and the other horse girls came to the gate and prepared to enter.

She could feel that the horse racing girls around her were all watching her, treating her as their greatest enemy ever. The title of Canopus member would make her highly valued during the competition.

She loosened her clenched right hand, revealing an amulet given by Barbatos, as well as amulets from other friends. She put these amulets into her chest, without any pressure. All she had at this moment was confidence and the destination in front of her!

The spring breeze in May gently blew the ends of her hair, and a feeling of high spirits surged from the bottom of her heart, making her body seem to be full of strength at this moment, and her condition was better than ever before.

The thirteen participating horse racing ladies were all ready and entered the gate together, waiting for the start signal.
