Tianma? Actually, I'm a doctor!

When the girl Platinum saw clearly the [Competition Reward] that appeared in front of her, even she, who was calm and composed, couldn't help but blink.

"Eh?"

The assassin girl would not be surprised at all by the former among the rewards.

She had known for a long time that she should finish the next and last Takarazuka Kinen race before the transformation to the original character would be completely successful, thus starting the extraction of the alternate character and new characters.

But the latter of these rewards, the early opening of the character draw, was something Platinum did not expect.

Wouldn’t this satisfy your curiosity in advance?

"That's... great!"

The card pool opens in advance, who wouldn’t like such a good thing?

Moreover, it is a card pool that will not sink and will definitely produce goods!

It’s just that the scope of this card pool UP is too wide. There must be double-digit Kuranta characters in Arknights, right?

Even if he had to wait until the Takarazuka Memorial to transform, it didn't matter. In Platinum's opinion, it wasn't that important.

For example, many people save up resources to draw cards, and even if they don’t get any, they will directly close the game and log off. Instead of starting to play the game and train the character right away.

After all, this new transformation is definitely aimed at the mud and is going to expedition to the United States.

As for going to the United States and participating in mud track races, it will be after the Takarazuka Kinen event is over anyway, so there is no rush at all.

For now, let’s satisfy our curiosity and start drawing cards.

"Never mind, let's smoke first!"

"Go to the lounge and wash your hands, then smoke."

The silver-white girl, who was in a very happy mood, transformed into a gambling monster and turned around and walked towards the backstage of the winner's stage.

Backstage?

No, that's clearly the lounge!

As long as the second and third place horse girls are not too far behind, they will be able to go backstage with the winner as backup dancers.

But since her debut, Girl Platinum has only seen the first person besides herself backstage at her debut match...

She is also the only dancer so far who is only five horse bodies away and ranks first in the Pegasus Hall, the [Scarlet Girl Yamato Akagi]!

In this competition, the second-placed Mi Yu was already 21 lengths ahead, so naturally no one would appear in the backstage. For Bai Jin, that was basically her exclusive lounge.

"set off!"

------------------------------------

In many people's impressions, the eldest daughter of the Mejiro family, Mejiro McQueen, is elegant, confident and powerful. But at this moment...

Frustrated...

Shocking...

And, the heart that has been slow to react or even accept reality is all confirming one result.

Mebai McQueen...her defense is broken!

The red-hot eldest daughter of the Mejiro family was breathing rapidly and was about to turn around and leave the grass. Finally, she turned her head and looked at the silver-white girl's figure who was gradually disappearing and walking alone towards the winner's stage with some reluctance.

She, the reigning champion of the Spring Emperor's Prize for two consecutive years, couldn't even surpass the Yamato Akagi statue or even Platinum himself in this competition...

Even the attempt to ascend to the Pegasus Palace was a complete failure?!

In the Pegasus Palace, there are Arihata, Manchester Tea House, Yamato Akagi, Mejiro Dober, and Wamiyu, but she is the only one missing!!

Among all these Japanese horse racing girls, Mejiro McQueen is… the oldest veteran! She’s been in the industry for at least four years, and for a long time, she was recognized as the strongest long-distance racer.

Therefore, Mejiro McQueen has the capital to be proud of her record. She thinks that she should maintain the second place and fight for the first place no matter what.

But now, even the attempt to enter the Tianma Palace has failed completely!

How could McQueen easily accept such a blow and such humiliation?

"Woo..."

Because of the huge difference in horse lengths and the result of not even coming in second place, McQueen couldn't make any excuses from the bottom of his heart.

She wouldn't say that she was using the wrong running method and that she should have kept running ahead to win. She was just afraid that if she had really kept running ahead, she might have lost even more miserably!

"If you lose, you lose."

"It seems that I still have a lot of room for improvement in long-distance running. I must work harder from now on."

After sighing in frustration, Mejiro McQueen immediately started to leave.

And suddenly, a question came to her mind.

That is... the next Japanese GI event, the Takarazuka Kinen.

Do you want to join the war yourself?

"How about... not going to be humiliated?"

Although I am best at long-distance running, I was completely defeated despite having competition experience and being the defending champion.

Not to mention, Pegasus was equally terrifying at mid-range, but he wasn't very good at mid-range and had no footwork at all.

"Let's leave the task of defeating Pegasus to Emperor, Sokuko, and the others!"

The Great Devil Platinum...

We can only trust the Emperor and Suzuko!

------------------------------------

at the same time.

In the conference room inside the URA building.

On the big screen, the scene in which the silver-white girl won a decisive victory with a huge margin of victory was being played.

When Platinum crossed the finish line with victory, the sound of surprise or satisfaction echoed in the conference room.

"it is good!!"

"As expected of Pegasus Platinum, she's as perfect and gorgeous as ever!"

“How are the attendance, discussion, and overseas popularity of the game?”

"Even after the Osaka Cup spent a ton of resources and promotional money, there were still a lot of empty seats. The Spring Emperor's Prize's promotional expenses were less than half of the Osaka Cup's, yet tickets sold out overnight after the platinum registration information was released."

"The level of discussion and overseas popularity is tenfold! Many overseas TV stations were initially not interested in purchasing this live broadcast, but upon hearing that Bai Jin was confirmed to be leaving, they immediately bought it!"

"It can be said that the two previous Tenshun victories won by Mejiro McQueen combined were not as discussed and influential as the one won by Pegasus Platinum."

Such data made many senior URA members breathe a sigh of relief.

The pressure brought by the low point in the Osaka Cup has finally been relieved!

And Pegasus Platinum has easily brought the Spring Emperor's Award to an unprecedented peak!

"The combined influence of tens of thousands of Japanese horse girls in the past is not as great as that of one Pegasus."

"The overseas popularity is all thanks to Platinum!"

Another answer sounded faintly.

"Yeah, ten thousand zeros added together still isn't ten thousand..."

"..."

"While that's true, we must note that during our previous phone call, Shirogane stated that he would be heading to Europe after completing the Takarazuka Kinen."

"We can't rely on Platinum forever. She's bound to start an expedition in the second half of the year."

"That little ancestor is totally untouchable."

This was a result that URA felt deeply regretful and even painful about. They no longer had the arrogance they had in the past.

When URA first discussed the popularity of the event, in order to maintain the unprecedented popularity of the Japanese event and to reach new heights, they even discussed...

Some of the more radical and crazy members even suggested that since Platinum was so talented, why not run in Japan for another year in the Year of the Horse? It wouldn't be too late to wait until the following year for Platinum to lead the expedition.

In the end, URA chose to start testing the waters and began to "save resources and open up flows", reducing the prize money for the Spring Triple Crown in order to make Platinum a slave first.

If Platinum really completes the Spring Triple Crown according to the URA plan, then the next step may be to continue to ask her to complete the Autumn Triple Crown as a slave.

But beyond everyone's expectations...

At the annual awards ceremony, Platinum said coldly when he took the stage, "URA has no right to award me an honor!"

After that night, the Tenma fans and Platinum fans in Japan were completely crazy and launched the most terrible criticism and protest since the establishment of URA.

Even the Tresin Academy and many Japanese officials who regard Platinum as a "national treasure-level horse girl" have expressed their dissatisfaction on various occasions.

As a result, the Waterloo-like plunge in the Osaka Cup occurred directly, which on the other hand proved that Platinum brought the Japanese competition to a height that did not belong to it.

Tianma's trip to the Dubai World Cup has completely proved that she does not need any URA at all, and does not need to win the Japanese competition to prove herself.

Instead, it was URA that had to ask Tenma to participate in the Japanese competition to prove himself.

That long series of lows made URA completely obedient at this moment.

Now, that little ancestor can run every race she can! As long as it's her race, the prize money share will be doubled!

Being able to come back and run in Tenshun, or even have another Takarazuka Kinen, is enough to make URA excited!

And at the current meeting.

Then one of the senior members seemed to remember something and smiled expectantly.

"Fortunately, another super horse girl will be born this year."

"Moreover, that is an outstanding talent who may pursue Pegasus' great cause and attract widespread attention both at home and abroad!!"

"Yamato Akagi has earned the title of 'The Scarlet Queen'! She already defeated another talented horse girl, Vodka, head-on at the Sakura Festival two weeks ago by a margin of five lengths!"

"Many people both inside and outside the country firmly believe that Yamato Akaki is a lazy genius, a strong man like the emperor who loses his desire to win once he has gained an advantage over his opponent and doesn't care about the horse's size difference."

"So, she defeated Vodka with only her five horse bodies. When she fights Pegasus again in the future, the fully-powered Yamato Akagi will surely give everyone a huge surprise!"

Yamato Akiji!

In this year's classic event, she achieved her first GI victory at the Sakura Sakura, the first of the Mares' Triple Crown, not long ago!

It is also reported that the current British Epsom Derby officials, as well as classic events and mare events in many European countries, have extended invitations to Yamato Akagi, granting special registration qualifications and round-trip air tickets!

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took the shade.

Even Europe, which has always looked down on Japan, was shocked by Tianma and began to change its views.

Therefore, some people want to know what kind of surprise Yamato Akagi, the young genius in Japan who is the closest to Pegasus in the hall, can give them!

"But fortunately, Yamato Akagi has no plans for an expedition for now. She is still aiming for the Mares Triple Crown."

"If nothing unexpected happens, she will face Tenma Platinum, who has returned to Japan after finishing his European competition, at the Arima Kinen at the end of this year."

"Yamato Akagi and Shirogane, longed for by countless people, may have their second clash at the end of this year!!"

Even if Pegasus Platinum embarks on an expedition...

But with the new generation of genius, Yamato Akagi, who is closest to Pegasus, should, perhaps, possibly... be able to take on most of Platinum's popularity?

"In the second half of the year, it will be up to Platinum to show its prowess overseas, and for Yamato Akagi to demonstrate its absolute potential in Japan."

"But that's a matter for the future. Now, what we need to do is prepare for Platinum's final match of the first half of the year, the Takarazuka Kinen!"

"We need to make the lineup incredibly grand and spectacular to send Tianma off!"

With this in mind, popularity voting for the Takarazuka Memorial will begin early.

The current silver-white girl Tianma didn’t care about the expedition at all and didn’t think about such distant things.

Platinum, I just arrived in the lounge!

------------------------------------

Behind the scenes of the winner's stage, accompanied by the sound of a door closing.

Not long after, after washing her hands, the silver-white girl, who couldn't wait to start drawing cards, opened the system interface at an extremely fast speed.

Bai Jin believed that his luck must be good.

She must pick out a heavyweight, a horse racing girl who can kill and win prizes even on the American mud track where the competition is ridiculous!
