I only have one year to live, so I must become a legendary horse girl!

Gotham Carol didn't have any thoughts on such things. She chose the Japan Cup not because she had any objection to the competition, but simply because it was the only formal international competition in Japan. So she went to the grass field, and then...

Since Xingmu has such an idea, let her try it, Gotham Ode thought maliciously, since you want to snatch back the reputation of the Japan Cup from the hands of the devil... then, I will reward you and then challenge me, Gotham Ode, in the Japan Cup. This is not too much, right?

This year's Japan Cup... Let's take a look at the schedule.

Gotham Carol hummed a tune, then leaned on the railing with both hands and looked towards the exit for the contestants.

As the first match of the three-time champion was a key moment, Hanshin arranged an appearance and display segment. It was not the kind of appearance on the stage, but a thorough walk in front of the audience, which was originally only seen in large-scale events.

However, such things seem to be gradually spreading and becoming more and more frequent... In short, Gotham Carol is very excited now.

Was the excitement due to seeing Donna passing by in front of him in the stands? Yes, but not entirely.

As the G1 competition, the first of the three queens' crowns, the Sakura Sakura naturally meets a condition that is subtly understood by all horse girls.

Today, Donna will be competing in the G1 competition for the first time. She will also be wearing the winning uniform for the first time and appear in front of the whole world.

To be honest, if Gotham Carol asked, Donna would definitely not mind showing her what she looked like in her victory suit. At least it would be no problem to post a selfie earlier.

But even so, Gotham Carol was still quite stubborn in suppressing his thoughts, and chose to wait directly on the field.

This is a surprise, a surprise! The stunning appearance of our team's pony girl in her victory uniform should be seen at first sight on the field. This is what a trainer must be aware of...!

The moment you put on the decisive suit, your breath will become hot. This will not change no matter how many times you put on this suit. The reason is very simple.

For Uma Musume, putting on the final uniform means stepping onto the field, and facing the field...

There is no Uma Musume that wouldn’t be excited about this, no!

Likewise, it doesn't say that trainers wouldn't look forward to seeing their girls walk onto the field in gorgeous attire, no!

It was for this reason that Gotham Anthem stared motionlessly at the player's passage. Even though the commentator had not yet announced that Donna was about to make her debut, she just didn't move!

However, the first person who appeared in the field of vision was not Donna, but another blue-haired ponygirl wearing a dark dress.

The third most popular, the peak...!

As if she felt the scorching gaze of Gotham Carol, Ji Feng, who was actually a little weak in daily life, showed rare determination at this moment. She nodded to Gotham Carol without hesitation, then walked across the audience stand, showing her confidence to everyone.

Very good, very energetic, it seems like he doesn't believe he will lose...

I just like to see kids like you with a look of doubt on your face about life. Hehe, what kind of delicious expression will you make... Ahem, why do I have such scary thoughts?

Gotham Carol couldn't figure it out, and she had no desire to think further. She just looked deeply into the dark contestant passage.

Along with the commentary, a figure appeared in front of everyone in the stadium.

Donna is calm as water, but only legends like Gotham Carol can feel it...

At this moment, Donna's whole body was burning as if an invisible flame was burning——!

The violent desire to crush any opponent begins at this moment, without reservation.

Opponents? I'll tear you all to pieces.

Chapter 192: Peak Ambition

So, what kind of rhythm has this game entered?

It actually didn't take too much time for them to appear on stage. Jifeng and Donna all made their appearances, but after Xingmu received the loudest cheers, the official start of the competition began the countdown.

However, it was at this time that Donna showed her first characteristic, which was unique to the Eternal Beat team.

As we all know, before the race begins, you have to prepare to start. What distinguishes horse racing girls from human running competitions is the gate countdown.

However, such a narrow and dark corner where the sun is blocked will make many horse girls feel fear from the bottom of their hearts. So, in such a situation, what can show the unique characteristics of the Eternal Beat team?

Of course, it is nothing like the entry of Uma Musume.

Unlike Ji Feng who paused slightly due to fear, Dong Na walked into the gate without stopping at all and began to prepare for her competition.

Even Donna was the last one to reach the gate and the first one to enter...!

Even though the other opponents in front had made their debut early, they were still slow to enter the gate!

As the second to last horse girl to make her debut, Donna's performance was enough to surprise people around the world who followed the event.

Obviously, the whole world knows that the last horse girl who entered the gate without any hesitation or fear was called Gotham Carol!

Can Donna replicate the miracle of their trainer in this competition and give the world a shocking development in this classic year...?

A short while after Donna completed the entry, Jifeng, who seemed to have overcome his courage, took a deep breath and wanted to get into his position.

However, when Jifeng was still making his final mental preparations, Xingmu was the last one to make his appearance. Then, he who had just finished his mental preparations had already completed the entry.

Realizing that he was the last of the top three, Ji Feng could only force himself to complete his preparations.

And what kind of running style will Jifeng choose in this race?

Her gate is number six, number six among sixteen people, which is neither good nor bad. Generally speaking, this position has enough selection power.

For example, if you don't get a suitable enough distance at the start, you can choose to follow the group of horse girls in front first, and then wait for opportunities at any time to win with the last kick.

Ji Feng is confident that her speed is definitely much more exaggerated than what Donna has shown in any previous competition. Even if there is a possibility that Donna has hidden strength, as long as the magnitude is not too alarming, Ji Feng is confident that she can completely defeat Donna.

Could it be that after the last New Year's race, Donna's speed had improved dramatically? Normally, such a thing would be impossible...

This world is not a game, and this field requires the most talent. For a horse girl like Donna, whose endurance is too exaggerated, speed is almost an indicator that cannot be improved quickly.

So, Donna, if the race was longer, longer... maybe I wouldn't be able to say I could easily defeat you. But alas, this is a 1,600-meter race, and this is the opponent I really have to face and surpass at the cherry blossom viewing...

Is it Miss Xingmu?

Ji Feng looked to the other side, towards the direction of the larger digital gate. Who was his biggest opponent in this game?

Without a doubt, it is Miss Xingmu. So what kind of adaptability and running style has Miss Xingmu demonstrated in previous competitions?

In other words, how does Miss Xingmu arrange the rhythm of the game?

In the previous new horse battles, Xingmu had always appeared in front of the world in the form of chasing horses. Generally, horse girls rarely adapt to multiple running methods. At most, they can only adapt to one or two methods, and their positions are quite close. For example, Jifeng herself is good at both escaping horses and taking the lead.

In short, since there is no more information, we can only assume that Miss Xingmu will choose to chase the horse and run away. Even if there is a hidden range, it will only be to the extent of missing the horse at most, right?

Ji Feng silently counted the number of gate positions in Xingmu, imagining what might happen after the game started.

Miss Xingmu's position is fourteen, which is quite close to the outside, a very bad position for both escaping and going ahead. In other words, even if Miss Xingmu has hidden her running ability, it would be difficult for her to show it in the face of such a huge disadvantage, right?

There were sixteen participants in the Sakura Tournament, and Xingmu was ranked fourteenth. This was already a near-destructive situation for the runners and the ones who went ahead. But if Xingmu really chose to chase...

Well, this is actually a huge advantage.

There shouldn't be any more surprises. Miss Xingmu will definitely choose to chase the horse, relying on the group of horse girls behind her, and use that terrifying last kick to chase victory at the end of the game.

If that’s the case, then this is the running method that should be chosen for this race, right?

At the perfect gate at position six, the game started the moment...

The fleeing horse left the whole world behind, even Donna, leaving behind. His weak speed was unable to catch up, and the gap widened to a terrifying degree, leaving Xingmu's last legs without any hope...

This is the formula for Jifeng’s victory this time!

I will be the strongest in this classic year. Whether it's Legend or Hall of Fame, I won't lose to anyone at the pinnacle...

When the gate was flashing red lights, Ji Feng closed his eyes and meditated to adjust his state.

"The weather is beautiful at Hanshin Racecourse, and another year of cherry blossom viewing is about to begin. This time, it's truly the center of attention. The genius Jifeng has risen from the ordinary, Anmu has worked tirelessly for the rise of the Japan Cup, and..."

"The younger generation the Demon King is teaching is Donna from the Eternal Rhythm team! Honestly, these three horse girls are already quite powerful. Even if they were placed in any other classic year competition, they would have achieved quite a good result, right?"

The second gate prompt sounded, and the red light kept flashing as if in warning. The horn for the start of the competition was about to be blown. But will this cherry blossom viewing competition bring any surprises?

"However, before the competition began, Miss Donna had the most advantage in terms of position. Although Miss Jifeng was also at Gate 6, Miss Donna's gate was simply too advantageous!"

"Especially considering Miss Donna's running style, Gate 3, which is almost a prime location, is a huge advantage."

"However, no matter how powerful the advantage is, if there is a real gap in strength, it will not change anything. Can you maintain your advantage with such an advantage in such a situation, Miss Donna?!"

She is just the third gatekeeper. Donna is very strong, but her speed is too slow. In this game, she will not be my opponent, absolutely not.

Ji Feng opened her eyes and saw the flashing red light at the gate. Then, in the next moment...

The lights at the gate suddenly went out. After just two seconds, or rather, after two seconds that felt like a century, the lights came on again.

And this time, what Ji Feng saw was indeed the green light indicating the start of the game!

Almost at the same moment, amid the mechanical friction sound of the gate opening, Ji Feng's body began to accelerate suddenly before she even had time to react.

The dark blue figure rushed out of the gate and was about to begin her magnificent performance at the cherry blossom viewing... No, there is definitely something wrong with this, right?

According to the original script, Ji Feng should have suddenly burst out with his own speed after the start of the race, and then soared into the sky, leading the whole race like Miss Song and killing the competition, completely crushing all suspense before it officially started.

However, an accident suddenly struck at the very beginning of the game.

When the race started, there was a horse girl running in the front, running in the front amid the thunderous cheers of all the spectators!

So, does this figure belong to Jifeng who has decided to attack in the escape horse form?

No.

Could it be Xingmu who could hide his running method and then miraculously start the charge from Gate 14...?

No, the one who took the lead at the beginning of this game was... Donna at Gate No. 3, whom everyone thought was not an advantage, and could even be considered a shortcoming!

"Donna, you have to remember one thing about this match. Even now, your speed is still at a disadvantage. If Jifeng's position at the gate isn't too bad, she'll definitely choose to run away at the start."

Donna clearly remembered what Gotham Carol said to her before the game started. Even now, such words are still echoing in her ears, bringing the most direct starting choice.

"At that time, if your position is very low, then you will have no choice but to start from the beginning and accelerate against her, using your exaggerated endurance to wear down Jifeng."

"But if your position is good... then, why not use that method?"

The voice seemed to carry a hint of cruelty. Dongna knew that Jifeng was a fan of Miss Song, and Miss Song herself clearly remembered such things -

But, but the trainer is a man of steel and majesty, who can teach me to kill her fans so ruthlessly.

So, what does that method mean?

"Donna, Donna is coming! Unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable, the leading horse girl in this competition is not Jifeng, but Donna!?"

The commentator's tone was full of disbelief, but the next moment after she finished speaking, Donna's position was completely surpassed by the other horse girls on the side, but this was not something to pay much attention to.

Because everyone present saw one thing, that is, Jifeng's battle plan was completely disrupted.

Generally speaking, if one really chooses to go first, he will not do anything special in the early stage of the game even if there is a horse girl blocking him in front. However, after being blocked by Donna, Ji Feng has repeatedly made several breakthroughs in the first 100 meters, trying to bypass the strong horse girl in front and fly into the sky.

Ji Feng was quite impatient. Obviously, what she really wanted to do at the beginning was not to get ahead, but to escape!

But the escape attempt was completely anticipated by Donna, and then completely destroyed at the beginning stage!

"Unbelievable! Such powerful prediction and targeting! If Miss Jifeng can't muster enough strength to break through, then her wish to escape in this match will be impossible, right? Can she break through? Donna's interception!"

Break through my blockade? Ahhh… There are people in this world who can do this, maybe many, but there is only one person who I feel is absolutely unstoppable…

Donna felt a little disdainful in her heart, but the more disdainful she felt, the more seriously and focused she was on the competition.

Peak? Interesting! Let me witness your breakthrough. And let you see the rich experience I've learned from countless failed attempts to break through and intercept the trainer!

Ji Feng was very anxious, very anxious, very anxious. It was not that if she didn't break through Dongna at this time, she would have no chance later, but Xingmu was still watching her closely from behind. If she didn't maintain enough advantage, it would be easy for her to fall into a passive position in the final stage of the game.

We can’t go on like this. No matter what the cost, we must break through right now...!

Ji Feng gritted her teeth and charged forward like a violent storm, trying to slip away from Dongna's side and fly into the sky.

The two of them were engaged in this kind of game throughout the entire initial straight, and it was so intense that they almost had physical collisions several times.

But even so, Donna's defense, which was on the verge of being broken through several times, remained solid. It was so thick that there was no possibility of a breakthrough at all!

"Miss Jifeng is still trying. She hasn't given up on the idea of ​​breaking through and starting to lead. But Dongna's defense is too terrifying. Is there really anyone who can break free from such a defense?"

"The first straight! The first straight of the Hanshin Sakura Festival is almost over. This is even the last chance to take the lead at the start. Can Miss Jifeng pull off a breakthrough under these circumstances, rush to the front on the curve, and kill the suspense of the race?"

"Can you do that, Miss Jifeng?"

Ji Feng gritted her teeth. Of course, what the commentator said was exactly what she had imagined, and she knew it clearly.

If you want to win...

At the first bend, we must break through Donna's entire thick defense!

Chapter 193: Xingmu’s Challenge.

After repeated attempts, Jifeng's attack temporarily stagnated, at least there was no obvious continued attempt before the initial bend.

But Gotham Carol, who was standing by the field, could tell that she understood exactly what Ji Feng was thinking...
