However, now, Hitotsu Kohaku's strength is quite good...
Two horse girls galloped along the campus path, the fallen cherry blossoms that had not yet bloomed sprinkling on them. Their figures were alluring, and their youthful exuberance was truly captivating.
It would be even better if Amber didn't wield her devastating "Tyranny Halberd".
"Golden Ship! Stop right there! If you don't stop, I'm going to turn on the power!"
"Waaaaah... How did you get an electric shock? Mommy, Mommy! This current is so exciting... Why do I feel... a little happy?"
"Huh? How can you still run?"
"Are you kidding! I used to do speedruns in the Electric Circle Challenge, I've already mastered that!"
"Wait a minute? Electric circuit challenge... speedrun?"
"Since I'm already here, I have to at least get one of these: a no-damage run or a speedrun!"
In the end, however, the golden ship could not withstand the voltage and the gravity of the Scarlet Amber. It was electrocuted and was smoking, so it had to write a scathing self-criticism.
Applause erupted around them, and everyone gained a completely new understanding of the Scarlet Amber...
Not only is she a living bodhisattva who visits each dormitory at night to help promote the Traditional Life Department's activities and incidentally gives everyone local specialties from the Service Department, but she's also a valiant warrior...
Since he is a war god, some martial-minded horse racing girls have come up to him.
"Amber, Amber! We are the archery club under the Student Life Department. Could you please help us with some promotional work? Your image is really suitable!"
A horse girl dressed in black hakama with a cut-out pattern and a breastplate, carrying a longbow, came up and enthusiastically took Hitotsu Amber's small hand. "Amber, you're also in the life skills club, and your image is perfect for it. Could you help us record a promotional video? We'll show this promotional video during the official festival in a few days to attract the tourists' attention!"
At this moment, Kotobuki Toru slowly walked over and asked in confusion, "Kohaku... she hasn't learned archery."
In Japan, archery is not only a sport, but also a form of etiquette and performance. A village girl like Hitokohaku who has not received any training would probably seem very crude, so Kotobuki Toru is reluctant to let Hitokohaku make a fool of herself.
But Hitoko was clearly captivated by this unfamiliar way of playing, and even started speaking up for the archery club's female member: "TouTou, you're looking down on people! These classmates admire my fighting skills!"
Since he had some free time this afternoon, and it didn't matter where he went, Kotobuki Toru didn't say anything more and followed Hitoko Amber to the archery club's prepared area...

The image was created by a helpful member of the group.
I got carried away and ended up writing both chapters together.
Let's just release both of them together!
Chapter 250 The Pinnacle
"Amber, let me tell you, our archery club is also a very popular club in Treson."
"This... I think I know something about it." Hibiki Amber, standing beside Ma Musume, nodded slightly and said, "It seems to be because we can learn perspective-based skills?"
As we all know, racehorse girls can learn new skills from all aspects of life, and then apply these new skills to their running.
Among them, the most popular are Treson's archery club and kendo club. The former is said to teach all sorts of perspective-based skills, while the kendo club seems to teach calming recovery skills... According to those dreamy racehorse girls, you can even learn dimensional slashes in the kendo club.
"Speaking of which, from the perspective of the archery club, wouldn't a horse girl like me be very suitable for drawing a bow and shooting arrows?"
As she spoke, Fei Tu Hu Po rolled up her sleeves, revealing her slender, fair arms, and struck a pose as if showing off her biceps.
The muscle lines are faintly visible, leaning more towards gentleness than violence.
The horse girl from the archery club glanced at Hitoko Amber and immediately shook her head, "I don't think it's suitable..."
"Eh? Why?"
The archery club member looked down at her slightly heaving chest in her school uniform and said, "Your chest is too big. If you don't wear protective gear, the bowstring will hit your chest when you draw it. If you wear protective gear, you'll feel uncomfortable from the constriction, and it might even affect your breast development."
"Is that so?" Fei Tu Hu Po looked down at her chest and realized that she really was the size where she couldn't see her feet when she looked down.
"Is this considered big already?"
"Whoa, you woman, are you showing off your Versailles trip?"
Hitotsu Amber tilted her head: "If that's the case, you want me to help with advertising for the archery club... but you also say I'm not suited for drawing a bow, so how can I help with promotion?"
"Pull it with your legs and feet!"
Scarlet Amber jumped up and down in shock: "Huh? Use, use what?"
"Feet and legs?" The horse girl from the archery club further explained, "Of course, to be more precise... there are several ways to draw the bow, such as the prone shooting style where you step on the bow arm with the balls of your feet and pull the bowstring with your hands, or the drawing style where you draw the bow directly with the toes of both feet... These are all relatively common ways to draw the bow."
After saying that, the horse girl from the archery club raised her hand, gesturing for everyone to look to the side: "We're here! This is our archery club's shooting range."
Hitoko and the others looked in the direction the racehorse girl was waving. There was a large-scale garden field with various flower beds about to bloom in the center. Beyond the colorful sea of flowers, on the other side of the flower beds, there were a large number of straw targets.
On the simply laid wooden floor, many horse racers dressed in archery uniforms were already kneeling, their postures dignified. The creases of their black hakama were meticulous, and their tabi socks were clean, as white as freshly melted snow.
"Generally speaking, the target distance for archery is 28 meters for short distances and 60 meters for longer distances. However, since we are horse racers and use a powerful bow, the target is placed at a distance of 90 meters... The long-distance target distance for Olympic compound bows is also this distance."
"Then why don't people use compound bows, which look cooler?"
"You mean a composite bow that, when held by a racehorse girl, can shoot nearly 800 meters and easily pierce through steel plates?"
"Uh, it's nothing."
The horse girl from the archery club calmly explained the archery to everyone, and casually gestured for the two to change their shoes on the wooden platform. "You can take off your shoes here. The platform is very clean. We just wiped it with a rag and our tails today!"
"I don't have a kyudo uniform or tabi socks or anything, is that okay?"
"No problem! You're a military officer on the Disciplinary Committee now! Besides, black stockings are actually better!"
"Yes, really?"
As instructed, Hitotsu Amber took off her shoes and stepped onto the wooden platform wearing only her socks. It was still a slightly cool March, and the temperature in the makeshift archery range, which was drafty, was quite low. The wooden floor was also very cold, just like the windows that had been exposed to the cold wind in winter.
As soon as Fei Tu Hu Po's foot stepped on the wooden floor, her soft sole left a series of hazy, delicate water vapor marks.
Kotobuki Toru followed behind Hitsukohaku, and playfully, before the mist left by Hitsukohaku had dissipated, she quickly stepped next to Hitsukohaku's footprints. The two footprints, one big and one small, were placed together, looking adorable and showing a great sense of tacit understanding...
"TouTou, what are you doing? Why are you following behind me?"
Kotobuki hissed and gasped, “I was thinking this floor is really cold on the feet… No wonder everyone wears those thick, bulky tabi socks. We’d better find somewhere to sit down quickly.”
Perhaps because of her strong voice, Hitotsu Amber didn't feel that the floor was cold on her feet. She just started shaking her head and observing the horse girls around her.
Not far away, a graceful and gentle blue-haired racehorse girl also noticed the arrival of Hitotsu Kohaku and Kotobuki Toru.
With her long, deep blue hair and white diamond-shaped highlights on top, she looked like a meditating monk or a sleeping swan when she closed her eyes. There wasn't a single flaw to be found from top to bottom. Even the wind blowing on the girl gave her a sense of calm. Only the slightly trembling ears on her head showed that this horse girl was still interacting with her surroundings.
When Hitotsu Kohaku and Kotobuki Toru approached, the horse girl with long, dark blue hair opened her eyes, her blue-purple eyes possessing an astonishing charm. "Yo, it's been a long time, Kotobuki-san, and... nice to meet you, Hitotsu-san."
Upon hearing the girl's voice, Kotobuki Toru immediately started scratching his head, his face contorted in a pained expression.
The ears on Hibiki Amber's head twitched slightly. It was clear that the horse girl had called Kotobuki Toru's name first before calling her own...
Clearly, in this horse girl's heart, Kotobuki Toru is more important than herself.
So Hitoko turned her head and looked at Kotobuki Toru behind her: "Toru... this Uma-chan seems to know you quite well."
Qin Chui felt like he was being pricked by a thorn in his back, and could only put down his hand that was scratching his head: "Actually, you should be quite familiar with Fei Tu... after all, you've bullied her sister so many times."
"what?"
"She is Gao Shangjunyi and Qiangji's older sister, Jifeng..."
-----
First update is here!
Please please please please
Chapter 251 TouTou, are you a sister-complex? What kind of sister do you like?
The early spring sunlight slanted through the clouds, weaving a diamond pattern on the solid wood floor.
"Eh... Gekamine-kun?"
"Yes, it's me..." Kneeling on the straw cushion, Jifeng gathered her long blue hair that hung down in front of her chest and smiled at the two of them: "As the eldest sister in the family, I went home to attend a social event, so I couldn't come to greet you two right away. I hope you can forgive me."
Hitotsu Amber blinked and stared at the racehorse girl, Gyokumine, who looked somewhat like an older sister and was also very polite. She sighed and thought to herself that the upbringing of the Gao Shang Junyi family was truly unbearable.
The eldest sister, Jifeng, is beautiful and gentle, clearly an amazing older sister type. The second sister, Gaoshang Junyi, is beautiful and cute, and her personality is... well, let's not discuss her personality for now. The third sister, Qiangji, is even more sweet and cute. Although she is a bit mischievous, she is undoubtedly someone that many people want to love.
Of course, the most impressive one has to be Kotobuki Toru's father! I wonder what methods he used to get all three sisters to know Kotobuki Toru...
These three beautiful girls have every type of attribute on full display: the gentle older sister type, the introverted gravity type, the cute little devil type... basically all the types that men would like.
So now, Kotobuki Toru has neither shown any affection for the aloof and clear-headed Junichi, nor does he seem to want to avoid the mischievous and powerful attacks.
So... this guy doesn't happen to like older sister types like Jifeng, he might be a sister complex or something, right?
Fei Tu Hu Po understands men. When they are young, they like cute little girls. As they grow older, they like beautiful young women. But after entering society and experiencing its hardships, they start to yearn for gentle older sisters who are caring and capable of making money.
Perfectly, the wealthy and academically gifted Gyokumine perfectly matches the image of the older sister type racehorse girl in Hito Kohaku's mind!
It moved! The killing intent stirred!
So, Hitotsu Kohaku immediately sat down next to Gyokumine, ready to begin studying the racehorse girl up close.
So what if I'm your sister? I can still take a bite out of anyone!
When Kotobuki Toru saw that Hitoko Amber was sitting in a position relatively close to the summit, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. At least now there was a barrier between him and the summit, so it wouldn't be so awkward.
The thought that Jifeng wouldn't even need to look at her, just by hearing her bare feet on the wooden floor... made Fei Tu Hu Po forget about quietly playing a few notes on her cricket flute and start tapping away on her phone.
[Hibi Amber: TouTou, I think this Miss Jifeng is actually very beautiful, polite, and has a gentle personality... I think you shouldn't miss her.]
Kotobuki Toru felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. Without thinking, he took it out and pretended to reply to a message, avoiding the awkward silence between them in reality.
But when he saw that the message was from Hitotsu Kohaku, and then read the content of the message, Kotobuki Toru's face twisted. He looked down and met Hitotsu Kohaku's furtive and charming eyes for a while, and then Kotobuki Toru started tapping on his phone screen.
[Kotobuki Toru: Wow, what are you talking about? You sound just like my dad... pushing me from behind whenever you see a pretty horse? Are you serious?]
In fact, Hitoko wasn't sure if she was serious. Recently, Hitoko had been thinking that it would be better if Kotobuki Toru found a racehorse girl who was good enough to fall in love with.
If Kotobuki Toru were to one day tell her that he had found a lover worthy of spending his life with, Hito Kohaku would still be sad and would probably cry her eyes out, but at least she could put aside those messy thoughts and live a peaceful life on her own...
[Hibi Amber: Hey, it's not impossible for you to call me dad, and I'm doing this for your own good... Look at you, you don't seem to care much for girls like Little Hat or the rich lady, I reckon you just like gentle older sister types, isn't that perfect? I think Jifeng's dislike for you isn't that obvious, so maybe there's a chance.]
[Kotobuki Toru: Not disliking someone means liking them, right? Your understanding of love is even worse than mine... You'd better not try to be my strategist, I'm afraid people will laugh at us. Gyokumine's indifferent attitude towards me is just a surety that there's absolutely no possibility between us.]
Of course... when Hitoko heard Kotobuki's answer, she felt a slight sense of joy.
[Hibi Amber: Why not? I understand men, most men are into gentle older sister types!]
Qin Chui almost vomited blood.
[Kotobuki Toru: That's because these siscon and siscon people don't really have older or younger sisters. They have absolutely no normal understanding of what an older sister is! Go ask around and see if people who have older sisters or are frequently tortured become siscon...]
Why does Jifeng treat himself with such indifference, and even seem to want to make fun of him?
That's because it's absolutely certain that Kotobuki Toru, who was disciplined by her older sister from a young age and bullied by her older sister's classmates, would never like an older sister type of character. Any label like "older sister," "older sister," or "senior" would be condemned to death in Kotobuki Toru's heart.
Fei Tu Hu Po typed out a message quickly, then deleted it after thinking about it, and only typed a few words afterward.
[Hibiko Amber: You don't like the older sister type either, so what kind do you like? I'm pretty well-connected in the student council now, my name is on all three major organizations. As long as it's a horse race in Teresa, I can help you get in touch.]
After sending the message, Hitotsu Kohaku immediately looked in Kotobuki Toru's direction, trying to read something from his micro-expressions.
Most importantly... could it be that in this Central Tereson, where beautiful girls gather, and arguably the most beautiful women in the world are all here, there really is a Uma Musume that Kotobuki Toru likes?
Unexpectedly, Kotobuki Toru showed no expression after reading Hitoko's message. Instead, he looked up and met Hitoko's gaze before sending a message without any expression.
[Kotobuki Toru: Excellent answer: I don't know anymore.]
Silence fell over the room once again.
But Jifeng was quite amused watching from the sidelines. The two of them were sending messages like they were playing with a remotely controlled vibrating toy. Anyone could tell that they had entered their own private little world...
However, the two of them had expressions ranging from grimacing and speechless to conflicted and heavy-hearted, which didn't seem like they were talking about anything romantic...

The second update is here! Please, please, please, please!
Chapter 252 Noblewoman, Peak: The Great Shock is the Woman Who Can Become My Mother!
Jifeng knelt beside Fei Tu Hu Po, quietly watching the two bicker and joke around, a respectful and understanding smile on his face. Only after things had calmed down did he speak and ask:
