As they spoke, the group had already left the stands and entered the private tunnel leading toward the medical area.
It was much quieter here than in the stands, and those passing by were all Horse Girls and Trainers participating in today's races.
Precisely because it was so quiet, Almond Eye's words echoed through the tunnel at once, drawing quite a few strange looks.
Very quickly, the people looking over either wore odd expressions or simply could not hold back their laughter, covering their mouths as they snickered.
Noticing their amusement, Almond Eye froze for a moment, then looked around in confusion before turning to Anjing Zhen and the others beside her.
"W-What's wrong? Was what I just said... funny?"
Anjing Zhen had not intended to laugh. After all, he knew better than anyone that, with Almond Eye's talent, seven G1 titles were absolutely not her limit.
She was a Horse Girl among the very best, one capable of winning nine G1s. She truly possessed the potential to surpass The Matriarch.
If he had been asked to guide Almond Eye a year or two ago, Anjing Zhen might have had some doubts.
He knew how the future would unfold, and he had worked earnestly toward his career as a Trainer for a long time, but experience was not something one could gain through effort alone.
Yet after working alongside Kitasan Black for so long, he had grown increasingly confident in himself.
Especially now that he had experience guiding an extraordinarily gifted Horse Girl, training Almond Eye would naturally come much more easily to him.
More importantly, after the trip to Dubai, he had finally found some leads regarding the parts of his theoretical framework that had previously been hardest to control. That gave him even more confidence in the future.
