Nenfu didn't hold back with her words of praise.

Shunkawa Tazuna nodded in agreement, deeply impressed by the high evaluation.

But the Green Demon's tone shifted, a hint of solemnity entering her voice.

"But that's only if... she doesn't suffer the same injuries we did."

"I hope she won't be defeated by fractures and injuries!"

Some time later.

The once cool, radiant, and powerful silver-white Heavenly Horse emerged from the winner's stage tunnel looking dazed and drenched in sweat.

That damned winner's stage is finally over!

(Wait, why am I the only one here?)

(Winning by so many horse lengths... is that a "punishment?")

Platinum almost instinctively thought she had triggered some kind of penalty mechanism.

Otherwise, why would they only let her perform on stage alone?

Fortunately, Hintleia had been Idol Knight in the original work, possessing a natural talent for songs and dance performances.

She had accumulated some experience from the post-race winner's stage performances in the previous two races, allowing her to pull off this solo dance smoothly.

Platinum was slightly pleased that the audience under the stage was twice as large as during the Oaks, and it seemed like she had gained a lot more fans!

(Next up is... the interview, I guess.)

Platinum, now somewhat familiar with the routine, returned backstage.

As soon as she arrived, she saw several excited and enthusiastic URA staff members.

Soon!

Platinum took the interview question selection sheet, lowering her head to prepare for the upcoming interview!

But when she saw a certain question, she suddenly paused, then her eyes lit up as if she had thought of an interesting answer.

I'll take this one! This is the one!

Anyway, she's not a student at Tracen Academy, so she's not afraid!

A little while later, the staff began the live interview based on the question Platinum had chosen.

"Platinum, congratulations on winning the Japanese Derby and achieving the great feat of a non-standard Two Crown."

"The first question we want to ask is, what are your prospects and determination for international races?"

Platinum, holding the microphone and striking a contemplative pose, seriously and formally expressed her outlook on overseas races.

"My goal is to win European and American international GI races! To complete what the great Emperor couldn't!"

The silver-white girl's voice was full of emotion, and she began to speak in a solemn and determined tone.

"That year, at the St. Louis Rey Handicap, Symboli Rudolf's expedition fought against American Uma Musume, and in a race with fewer than ten participants, she ultimately suffered a crushing defeat, finishing sixth."

Under the gaze of countless people across Japan, and under the astonished and teeth-gritting gaze of a certain Emperor!

(No! You can't...)

Her black history, retired for many years and unmentioned by anyone, was brought up by the scumbag Heavenly Horse in front of the whole country!

Platinum, on the live broadcast screen, changed her tone.

"At that time, I saw Symboli Rudolf slumped in a chair, sobbing uncontrollably, a scene I will never forget. At that moment, I thought, if I could become an Uma Musume, I would win everything."

In a corner of the world, the Tracen Academy student council president's hanging heart was directly broken.

"Now the opportunity to avenge the Emperor is right in front of me, and I must consider whether this will be the only chance I have in my life."

"I believe that Japanese Uma Musume can regain their past dominant position, and Symboli Rudolf has made an indelible contribution."

"It is our duty to restore the glory of Japanese Uma Musume!"

59. Shocking the Emperor for a Hundred Years! Reversing the Heavens, the Heavenly Horse Bullying the Emperor!

Several minutes earlier, on a special car returning to Tracen Academy.

Symboli Rudolf, as the student council president, had watched the entire Japanese Derby with several other student council members, and even her most beloved junior Uma Musume, Tokai Teio.

Currently, it was time for her, Tokai Teio, Chimei Representative, and Air Groove to return to school together.

Even Symboli Rudolf, whose personality had become more calm and composed after retirement, had to admit that she was shocked by Platinum's overwhelming victory by a full fourteen horse lengths.

And she couldn't help but wonder, if Platinum hadn't chosen to look back at the moon during the Oaks, but had continued to accelerate at full speed... would she have achieved a terrifying winning streak of more than ten horse lengths?

But in any case, what can be confirmed at least for now is that the legendary, and perhaps never-to-be-repeated, non-standard Triple Crown of Transformation will welcome a new generation's first challenger, and perhaps the only one!

"Platinum... truly an interesting and adorable little pony."

The more Symboli Rudolf replayed the recently concluded race and Platinum Centaurea's performance on the winner's stage, the more her lips curved into a smile. Her desire to recruit Platinum into Tracen Academy and the student council grew stronger.

But suddenly...

Tokai Teio, the petite Uma Musume beside Symboli Rudolf, handed him her phone with a slightly surprised expression.

"President, Platinum did another post-race interview. Would you like to see it?"

"An interview? Sure, let's take a look."

Symboli Rudolf nodded without hesitation.

A few seconds later, Platinum Centaurea's voice came from the phone.

"That year at the St. Louis Rey Handicap, Symboli Rudolf went on an expedition..."

Hearing only the first half of the sentence, the smile on Symboli Rudolf's face froze instantly.

In an instant, the perceptive Emperor realized something was wrong.

It went from: Hehe

To: Not hehe

Platinum, who won the Japanese Derby by a huge margin, was definitely under the national spotlight right now. This interview would definitely trend and become well-known.

I'm done for, I'm being roasted live!

(Gah, I don't want that to happen!!!)

"At the time, I saw Symboli Rudolf slumped in a chair, sobbing uncontrollably..."

The interview continued, Platinum Centaurea's resolute words reaching Symboli Rudolf's ears.

"I have to consider whether this will be the only chance I have in my life..."

"To restore the glory of Japanese Uma Musume racing, it is our duty!!"

In Symboli Rudolf's heart, there was only one thought...

(Gwa, you Tamamo's... that's not okay!)

As a student council president who had retired for many years, Symboli Rudolf never dreamed that she would suffer social death again even after retirement!

Without a doubt, there would be a lot of discussion today, and the intelligent Symboli Rudolf could even foresee the content of the headlines.

——The reason behind Symboli Rudolf's failed overseas expedition.

——Asking for a friend, does Heavenly Horse's "past dominance of Japanese Uma Musume" refer to the Emperor's zero wins overseas?

——Analyzing rationally without bias, is the Emperor being overrated? I think Tachyon, Teio, and Platinum should be ranked as the strongest Japanese Uma Musume!

——The difference in strength between Symboli Rudolf and top international Uma Musume!

The spine that Symboli Rudolf had held up for a lifetime was finally broken.

(I'm done for, I'm really going to suffer social death...)

The Emperor's breathing became slightly rapid, and she turned red all over.

In the other row of seats in the special car, Air Groove, and Chimei Representative, who had returned after a long absence, also heard Platinum Centaurea's interview answer.

The corners of the mouths of these two student council members couldn't help but curve up, and they turned their heads to look at the side window, covering their faces with their hands.

Chimei Representative and Air Groove seemed to have remembered something happy.

They were professionally trained, no matter how funny it was, they wouldn't laugh!

Unless they couldn't help it...

The petite girl Tokai Teio was not sitting with Chimei Representative and Air Groove, but next to Symboli Rudolf.

Therefore, Tokai Teio didn't realize anything. She only paid attention to the race, getting stronger, and her idol Symboli Rudolf, and didn't see the scene of the other two seniors holding back their laughter.

In Teio's eyes, she only noticed that Symboli Rudolf's face was flushed, her plump figure was constantly rising and falling, and her breathing became rapid.

Was that... happy to the point of excitement or shyness?

(That's right, Platinum Centaurea is expected to become the strongest super junior in Japan!)

(To be praised live in front of the whole country by such an unprecedented genius, no wonder the president is so happy that she's blushing.)

(This is the first time I've seen the president blush like this...)

Tokai Teio murmured to herself, as if she had made a decision.

No, she had to prove that she was the president's number one fan!

She must not fall to second place, and she must not let the president think that Heavenly Horse was the cutest junior!

What the young Teio didn't know was...

Sometimes, blushing is not because of shyness, but because of red-faced embarrassment.

(Okay, after the upcoming Takarazuka Kinen!)

(I, too, will replicate this! I must make a deep impression on the president!)

Prepare to memorize, give the president a surprise!

At Tracen Academy, on one of the training grounds.

Daiwa Scarlet and Vodka, rivals who constantly train and compete in practice races within the school.

Originally, Daiwa Scarlet had always regarded Vodka as a major enemy, an opponent she had to give her all against throughout her career.

But after unexpectedly failing in her debut race last month... Daiwa Scarlet's vision suddenly broadened by a significant margin.

Vodka?

No, her destined rival, the opponent she must defeat in the future, has to be that Heavenly Horse!

As for Vodka, she'll be a necessary tool for honing her skills, a whetstone before facing the Heavenly Horse.

At this moment, they are finishing their daily training, sitting together on a bench next to the training ground, taking a rest.

Having just watched the Japanese Derby, both of them are deeply shocked! Utterly stunned!

"A whole... fourteen horse lengths!"

"It achieved the Triple Crown of Transformation in an unorthodox way, going from an unknown to famous in just a week!"

"In one week, it went from a rookie Uma Musume, a GIII low-level graded race Uma Musume, to a young monarch with two GI titles!"

Neither Daiwa Scarlet nor Vodka could maintain their composure, unable to help but exclaim in amazement.

"Too strong, where on earth did this monster train to become like that!!"

"Even Tracen Academy would absolutely find it difficult to cultivate such a monster, right?"
