Because Xingchan and Umamusu No. 3 were the only escaped horses in the Japanese Derby on this day, Xingchan no longer needs to worry about the escaped horse queue...so the only thing left is the rear.
Although Xing-chan doesn't have eyes behind her back, she can hear the commentary. In a sense, the information revealed by the commentary is very important to the horse girls on the field.
Xingjiang doesn't know what the situation is like in the rear, but so far, Xingjiang hasn't heard the commentator reveal any news about the Holy King, so it can basically be ruled out that the Holy King is no longer competitive - after all, if something unexpected happens to the Holy King, the commentator will not remain indifferent.
So, does this mean that Sheng Wang's performance this time is similar to that at the Gaoyue Awards? Or does this mean she can hold back a bit?
Xingjiang felt that the latter possibility was more likely. After all, she was well aware of the Saint King's strength and the importance of the Japan Derby to her. Therefore, if the Saint King came to the Japan Derby with great momentum but performed as usual, Xingjiang would definitely not believe it.
Therefore, this time, Sheng Wang was unusually smart. She was not blinded by the desire for victory and planned to maintain her own tactics. She was very likely not to make the mistake of accelerating too early during the Gaoyue Award.
So that means... this time, Mr. Sheng Wang is serious about competing with her?
And this time, should it be her strongest yet? This is also her only chance to defeat Xing-chan. Because in Xing-chan's "dream", she was very confident that she could win the Chrysanthemum Sang. She knew that it was not just a matter of "historical facts", but also because she knew that she had burned everything to win the Chrysanthemum Sang.
In that match, even if Xiaocao, Xiaote, and Ailu joined in, they still couldn't beat Xingchan who burned everything. Besides, Shengwang wasn't good at long distances.
Therefore, this is the most likely chance for the Holy King to defeat Xing Jiang, and it may also be the only chance to defeat Xing Jiang head-on! Because Xing Jiang is also very clear that after the Chrysanthemum Appreciation, he may face a fate of being unable to recover.
So... this is her last chance to defeat the Holy King. She can still give it her all and compete with the Holy King in her prime.
This is also in line with what Xingjiang thought at the beginning - if the condition of the Holy King's aura this time is as bad as in the "dream", then she will take the championship of the Japanese Derby; but if the Holy King's condition is better than ever... give up?
"I'm sorry, Sheng Wang-san. Xing-chan, I can't give up on things so easily."
At this moment, a smile appeared on Qingyun Tiankong's face, a smile of interest.
Anyone familiar with Xing-chan's personality will know that Xing-chan is a lazy and indifferent horse girl most of the time, but once she becomes "interested" in something, it means that her competitive spirit has also risen.
"It's a promise that you and Trainer-san want to win the Japanese Derby, but it's also a promise that Trainer-san and I win the Classic Triple Crown together."
"Now, let's see who has stronger feelings for Trainer-san, Xing-chan, or who loves Trainer-san more, Sheng-wang-san."
Yes, in Qingyun Tiankong's eyes, the nature of this competition has changed. The other horse girls can no longer be called "opponents" of her and the Holy King. Now, in Xingchan's eyes, they are just movable obstacles.
Her only rival was the Holy King's Halo. This was the rival she valued most in her "romantic journey." She felt that, in some ways, the Holy King's Halo posed a greater threat than even Ludo's symbol or Mejiro Aldan!
Xiaocao is only good at talking, but not very threatening in practice. However, Xingjiang feels that the Holy King is so calm that she seems to be the one in charge of Kitano! She is the most threatening enemy!
Therefore, this time it is not just a duel between the two women on the field, but also a duel between Qingyun Tiankong and Shengwang Halo in their feelings and beliefs towards Kitano!
Therefore, Xing-chan will never allow herself to lose! Since Sheng-wang has given it her all this time, even if I'm not in top form, Xing-chan will still give it my all!
The only thing is that when it comes to my feelings for Trainer-san, Xing-chan, I will never lose!
With this thought in mind, Qingyun Tiankong's eyes began to grow serious. She knew that now was not the time for her to exert her strength, and she needed to wait for an opportunity...
Just like classmate Sheng Wang is also waiting for the opportunity, she must also wait for her own opportunity, otherwise, she will just lose the chance to win in vain.
"The horse girls are ready to pass the third bend, and horse girl number 3, 'Sincerity,' is still at the forefront of the group, having already passed the halfway point of the course!"
"After the third turn, all that remains is the final bend and the final straight! Can "Sincerity" maintain her advantage?"
Okay! Let's keep going at this pace! My stamina seems to be a little low... but if I can make it to the finish line, I should be fine...
The horse girl No. 3 named Zhencheng did not expect that the current situation would be so favorable for her. At the beginning, she had no intention of really surpassing Qingyun Tiankong. After all, Qingyun Tiankong's speed was just a little faster than hers, and she could only barely keep up.
But for some reason… I clearly didn't feel the speed of Qingyun Tiankong slowing down, yet I was able to surpass it. Thinking of this, Zhencheng himself felt very strange, but didn't think much about it.
Perhaps all his training was paying off? Qingyun Tiankong, the successor to the "Golden Generation," didn't seem so formidable after all!
Just as she was thinking this sincerely, she suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness - there seemed to be a gust of wind coming towards her from behind?
But now she was running forward against the wind, how could there be—
"Qingyun Tiankong! Qingyun Tiankong is exerting her strength! She's running towards number 3, Zhencheng! Slowly they're starting to catch up! Her acceleration is starting to put Zhencheng on par!"
"Ugh?"
At this moment, Zhencheng subconsciously looked around and found that in the outer part, Qingyun Tiankong's figure was approaching her like a green wind!
But this wind was actually accelerating! She was overtaking from the more difficult outer lane, and here she completely took the lead!
At this moment, Qingyun Tiankong's gaze inadvertently met Zhencheng's. At this moment, Qingyun Tiankong, who seemed to be at ease, showed a teasing expression.
"Sorry, I'm leaving now." She seemed to be saying this.
In just a moment, the balanced state was immediately broken, and Qingyun Tiankong, like stepping on a gust of wind, quickly distanced himself from Zhencheng, half a horse's body... one horse's body... the distance slowly widened.
Qingyun Tiankong's last kick is not very good, but as a runaway horse, her best thing is acceleration, so that she can create a long enough distance between herself and the following team. As long as the distance is long enough that the last kick cannot make up for it, it means the victory of the runaway horse girl.
"Qingyun Tiankong! Qingyun Tiankong has regained her lead! She's in the lead! And the gap between her and Zhencheng is widening!"
"Qingyun Tiankong is about to reach the final corner! The horse girls from the following teams are following closely! But they haven't reached the final corner yet! Qingyun Tiankong is going to be the first horse girl to cross the final corner!"
Why is it happening like that!
At this moment, the horse girl named Sincerity never thought that she was just feeling relieved about Qingyun Tiankong's strength, but she didn't expect that the moment she was overtaken and left behind by Qingyun Tiankong would come so quickly!
Wouldn't she be running out of energy? She started accelerating with 1000 meters to go. Wasn't she worried she wouldn't have enough energy for the final sprint?
Or was she confident that no one could catch up to her in the end? Unless it was a horse girl with a very strong last leg...
Just as she was thinking this, suddenly, a familiar feeling came from behind her again! But this time, it was not a gust of wind, but a dull sound!
"Bang!" There was a dull sound of iron hooves stepping on the grass. Before Zhencheng could react, a strong wind suddenly rushed out from beside her - it was also a green figure!
"Holy King Halo! Number 14's Holy King Halo has finally broken through the encirclement! She's also heading for the final turn! Is it finally here?! The final showdown between Holy King Halo and Qingyun Tiankong!"
Yes, the Holy King Halo burst out! And this time, her chance to burst out was extremely good. She didn't make the same mistake as Gao Yue Shang, but burst out at the final bend, at the critical point of the 600-meter mark!
At that moment, Saint King Halo exuded a terrifying and mysterious aura. Her pupils were still her usual chestnut-colored eyes, but her body now seemed to be emitting strange black particles...
It was as if "resentment" was wrapped around her body, and the aura of the Holy King that burst out at this moment erupted with unprecedented powerful force!
Chapter 413: The end of the Japanese derby, the Holy King's aura is not inferior to anyone!
"Qingyun Tiankong! Qingyun Tiankong is exerting her strength! She's running towards number 3, Zhencheng! Slowly they're starting to catch up! Her acceleration is starting to put Zhencheng on par!"
When the commentator's passionate voice sounded, all the long-awaited spectators in the audience were boiling with excitement. They all knew that the race was finally about to enter the decisive stage they had been looking forward to. If Qingyun Tiankong really crossed the finish line first, then Qingyun Tiankong, who won the Gaoyue Award and the Japan Derby, would become a two-time champion horse girl!
A double-crown Uma Girl is only one step away from a triple crown! Although it's not the second-place undefeated triple crown, if we can witness the birth of the next triple crown Uma Girl, then this era will undoubtedly be an era that will make the audience and Uma Girls excited.
Unfortunately, the excited audience and passionate commentary not only awakened Qingyun Tiankong, who was exerting his strength, but also another favorite to win the championship, who also awakened at this moment.
"Another me, can you come into my consciousness?"
Finally, when Saint King Halo, who had been waiting for the opportunity to exert her strength in the bad queue, heard the news that Xingjiang was taking the lead, she finally felt that her time had come. At this moment, Saint King Halo was talking to another self in her mind again.
At this moment, the "Holy King" who was running ahead of the Holy King and seemed to have already seen the right moment to exert his strength was also somewhat surprised when he received this news. He cast his gaze at the Holy King who was slightly behind him by about half a horse's length and responded in his mind: "Are you sure? This is, with me as the main body, controlling the sovereignty of my body to win. Do you really want to choose this?"
"Back to my consciousness."
At this moment, the Holy King repeated her words again, but this time he was more determined than the last time.
When he heard his original body say this, for some reason, the eyes of the "Holy King" filled with black particles flashed with disappointment, as if he was disappointed in "himself".
"It seems that you have truly thrown away all your past pride and have completely become a greenhouse flower."
However, facing the words of her other self, the Holy King Halo did not answer. Slowly, the figure of the "Holy King" slowly flowed into the Holy King's body accompanied by a burst of black gas. Soon, the Holy King heard her own voice from her mind.
"Now, I will control your body and temporarily take over its sovereignty."
"Do not."
However, the Saint King's words at this moment silenced everything around them. She slowly raised her head, staring straight ahead at everything, and replied word by word, "It's me, taking back everything that belongs to me. I am now a complete person."
"Returning to my body, my past, memories, pain, unwillingness... everything about me is under my control again."
Following the Holy King's consciousness, all the black particles representing the Holy King's unbearable past all flowed back into the Holy King's body. At this moment, the Holy King's pupils did not change at all - this meant that the sovereignty of her body was still in her own hands.
She was not manipulated, or rather, she regained control of another side of herself.
"Why are you doing this? Aren't you running away from the past?"
In her mind, the voice of the other side of the Saint King still lingered, but at this moment, the Saint King's aura could no longer conceal her other self. She simply revealed a long-lost, contemptuous smile and replied calmly, "I'm truly first-rate—how can running away be considered first-rate?"
"No matter how bitter the past was, that guy and I had struggled, worked hard, and gone through everything together. This is our past, and I should face it again."
"Let me, using this newly awakened resentment, make a final push! I'll show them who is truly the best!"
"What do I have to be afraid of? I'm running for his expectations. He doesn't despair. As a top-notch person, how can I not respond to his expectations?"
The Holy King's halo gave a resounding answer to her other self in her mind, but at that moment, she could no longer hear the other self's voice in her mind. They had merged into one again.
The Holy King was now, as she herself had said, completely "complete." She no longer avoided the past, nor could she find it unbearable to look upon it. She would use this power to achieve victory this time!
Of course, there is also Kitano's part... As long as he is behind her, she has nothing to fear!
So, move my legs!
This is the final one! A first-rate finish to the 600 meters!
"boom!"
With the dull sound of footsteps, the pupils of Saint King Halo shrank slightly, and at that moment her whole body tensed up. Her body compressed like a spring, accumulating all her strength to the limit, and all her physical strength burst out in the last 600 meters, making her best possible sprint!
And at the moment when the Holy King Halo broke through the siege, a piece of grass was flown into the sky with her footsteps, leaving a deep gully of horseshoe prints!
"The Holy King's Halo! Number 14's Holy King's Halo rushed out from the Great Outer Path! She accelerated! She approached the blue sky at an astonishing speed!"
"So fast! Holy King Halo rushed forward with an unprecedentedly powerful last kick! Can she catch up?! She's already at the final turn!"
"Classmate Sheng Wang!"
At this moment, Qingyun Tiankong, who had just passed the final bend, did not expect that the Holy King would catch up so quickly. Now, she has reached the final straight. The Holy King sounded like he had just reached the bend, but he was already very fast!
At this rate, on the final straight... she really might be overtaken! Sheng Wang's final kick was truly too sharp!
"But even so, Xing-chan, I will never admit defeat!"
"If you can catch up, then give it a try, Sheng Wang-san!"
Qingyun Tiankong also knew that she could no longer hold back, and she burned up all her strength in this final straight line. Even though this could not change the fact that the distance between her and the Holy King was getting closer, what she could do was to delay this process as much as possible.
As long as I cross the finish line before being caught up by classmate Shengwang, I win!
So, don't worry about anything else! Go for it!
With this thought in mind, Qingyun Tiankong stepped on his legs a little harder. Although the feeling of exhaustion began to become more and more obvious, Qingyun Tiankong would certainly not give up in the final sprint on the straight, nor would he lose speed here!
She had made a mistake once and would definitely not make it a second time. This was her physical fitness calculated through precise calculations, and it was definitely enough for the final sprint!
"Qingyun Tiankong is still ahead! But the Holy King's Halo is coming from behind!"
"Holy King Halo is still sprinting! She's still sprinting on the final straight! She's not running! At this moment, she's flying! She's definitely flying! She's catching up to Qingyun Tiankong! Only the last 150 meters or so remain!"
"The Holy King's aura is still charging, with a sharp last kick! It's like—"
Yes, she really was flying! The Holy King Halo's final sprint at this moment made one wonder if she had never used her full strength in previous matches. This powerful final kick was enough to eclipse the glory of all the horse girls in this competition.
This is the fastest and strongest last kick in the true sense of the word in this game. Even in previous competitions, it is rare to find a few horse girls who can match the last kick of the Holy King's Halo at this moment.
There is only one, yes, only one Uma Musume’s last legs that can perhaps be compared to the current Holy King’s halo.
"Like a good opera (Overlord)!" x2
At this moment, Kitano in the stands and the commentator's voice almost overlapped. Obviously, at this moment, Kitano and the commentator thought of a horse racing girl at the same time.
"That's right, just like this Overlord!"
Beside Kitano, Good Opera stared intently at Saint King Aura, who was desperately closing the gap on the field. Upon hearing such praise, Good Opera, renowned for his powerful last kick, laughed heartily, hands on hips, and said without hesitation, "The only one who can rival this Overlord is the last kick! It seems a new king has been born!"
"The last 3f, at this speed... I can definitely get a score of 33-34."
On the side, Luduo was also shocked by this scene. Although she cannot be said to be famous for her sharp last-minute performance, it is really rare to see a horse racing girl who can burst out with such a last-minute performance in a classic year.
Even if there were, most would just burn out all their last kicks in a Japanese derby or a Chrysanthemum Festival. And the Saint King's aura... Rudolph didn't know if it was the same for her, but at least, the Saint King's last kick was now undisputedly the fastest in the entire stadium!
But can she maintain it? Can she surpass it in the last 100 meters?
“Hoooooooooooooo!!”
At this moment, the black energy emanating from the Holy King's Halo as she charged forward with a roar became increasingly stronger. She seemed to realize that her stamina was gradually running out, but she forced herself to unleash all her strength.
She must not let her laziness control her will anymore. She must exhaust her physical strength and make a final sprint!
"The Holy King's halo is rushing up! Is it the Holy King or Qingyun?! Is it the Holy King or Qingyun?!"
"Ohh ...
At this moment, Saint King Halo and Qingyun Sky both roared with all their might, but the person who took the final step first had already decided the outcome of the game.
"Bang!" At this moment, the dying horse let out a final unwilling roar. In the sight of the blue sky, the body of the Holy King seemed to soar into the air at that moment, and the whole person rushed towards the finish line.
At this moment, the Holy King's ears standing up, his sweaty face, and his ferocious, angry, and unwilling expression were deeply imprinted in Qingyun Tiankong's mind.
