Umamusume: My Horse Girl Is Not Wronged

Chapter 129: Basic Training

The mountain road was built with funds from Teresen Academy.

On weekdays, tourists are allowed to visit, but during training camps, signs are put up prohibiting certain cars and large vehicles from entering and exiting.

However, tourists who come here are mainly for the coast, and very few people venture into the mountains.

To formulate a reasonable training plan, Lu Jue must have thoroughly understood the terrain and topography here before coming.

Of course, he had also inspected the site several times and placed direction signs along some roads.

Lu Jue led the three Uma Musume teams to the foot of the mountain for warm-up activities.

Then he brought out three boxes.

Grass Wonder, El Condor Pasa, and Agnes Digital, who had developed a phobia of “ketsujiru,” felt a strange sense of dread when they saw Lu Jue pull out three small boxes again.

The other Uma Musume also shrank behind their captain.

It won't be another punishment, will it?

Had the competition already begun?

“Don’t be scared, why are you looking at me like that?” Lu Jue said with a laugh, “These are sports watches. The ‘Dream’ team members already have them. Now I’m distributing them to the other two teams that don’t.”

He opened the boxes, motioned for everyone to come and get one, and then continued to explain:

“First, you must train hard, but your safety is always the top priority. If you encounter any problems, notify me immediately through the watch.”

When organizing this training camp, Lu Jue naturally considered all aspects thoroughly, and medical personnel at various points were indispensable.

“Wow, ‘Dream’ has this benefit? This watch isn’t cheap, is it?” Daiwa Scarlet put on her watch and raised her hand to examine it.

“Daiwa, yours isn’t as good-looking as mine.” Vodka shook the watch in her hand.

Tokai Teio personally put it on Symboli Rudolf, “President~ These were all bought by Trainer at his own expense, and they are products produced by his own family, very easy to use!”

“Trainer Lu bought and produced them himself?” Symboli Rudolf looked at the watch, slightly surprised.

This thing is not yet widely popularized.

“Trainer Lu, Wadashi has a question.” Gold Ship raised her hand, “Is this a gift for us?”

Lu Jue nodded and said:

“This watch is for you to check your pace. I don’t require you to run very fast, because training is not a one-time thing. I require you to master the rhythm of running.

“Of course, it’s also a welcome gift for everyone.”

“Trainer Lu is too good.”

“Indeed, good craftsmanship, and gentle too.”

“It would be even better if he didn’t invent such drinks anymore.”

Amidst the praises, Lu Jue’s back straightened even more, almost losing himself. The ‘Dream’ team members also listened with some pride.

“Alright, alright, even if you praise me, I won’t go easy on you.” Lu Jue motioned for everyone to be quiet, “Are you all wearing them? Let’s start the morning training now.”

Since they were on the mountain, the training content also revolved around mountain roads.

Lu Jue planned three routes of roughly the same distance and placed task notice boards at specific locations.

The signs indicated different paces for each stage, combining fast and slow, and only allowed sprinting in the final stage, which was more conducive to training.

“I have staff guarding every point, so as soon as you set off, they will start timing.”

“Too fast or too slow are both violations of the rules, and the final ranking depends on your day’s training results. If you use up all your stamina now, what will you do for the intense training in the afternoon?”

Lu Jue’s words also dispelled a certain mischievous Gold Ship’s opportunistic methods.

Moreover, since it involved the team, no one would want to drag their feet.

“Then, let the training begin!”

Lu Jue conservatively estimated that their run would take nearly an hour and a half, which was quite a test of endurance.

He himself was not idle, but his legs were inconvenient, so he had to ride a small electric scooter, randomly following behind a team to supervise.

On the other side.

“Don’t tell me, Xiao Lu’s training methods are sometimes quite clever. I’ll learn a trick or two.” Nishizaki Ryu said.

“You’re still Xiao Lu’s senior, but his current achievements have already surpassed yours.” Tojo Hana watched the images transmitted by the drone, monitoring the progress of each team in real time.

“That only means Xiao Lu is indeed the talent I favor.”

“You still have the nerve to say that, lounging here and not going to help Xiao Lu.”

Nishizaki Ryu leaned back in his seat, closing his eyes, “He’s already riding a small electric scooter, so am I supposed to carry him and the scooter along?”

After running the first stage of the route, Symboli Rudolf, who was at the front of the team, saw the prompt sign.

“The rhythm has changed, everyone pay attention and keep up with my pace.”

The winding mountain road was much harder to run than ordinary flat ground, and even Symboli Rudolf, leading the run continuously, couldn’t bear it.

The time to complete the task depended on the last team member to arrive.

Therefore, subsequent team members must take turns leading the run to balance individual stamina distribution, only then can the final collective sprint be achieved.

This also meant that the person leading the run needed to carefully control the pace and rhythm, thus achieving Lu Jue’s training goal.

“Silence Suzuka, I’ll trouble you.” Symboli Rudolf slowed her pace and retreated behind Silence Suzuka.

“Leave it to me, President.”

After such a long period of coaching by Lu Jue, Silence Suzuka was very proficient in rhythm running and didn’t need to constantly stare at her sports watch.

“Very good, everyone has to take turns leading to maximize the team’s benefit.” Lu Jue twisted the throttle with one hand and shouted with a loudspeaker in the other from behind.

Improving running skills was necessary, but as a Trainer, cultivating the team members’ collective spirit was also very important.

Their growth should not only be about running methods but also about their character.

“Xiao Cao, keep up, keep up, run well, you’re allowed to come to our accommodation for a meal.”

Tojo Hana had mentioned that Grass Wonder still had a slight leg injury. But Lu Jue didn’t say anything about it, instead, he was the first to encourage her.

“Mimi, learn from Silence Suzuka, dare to go up and lead the run later, this distance should be very easy for you, right?”

“And Daiwa… I’ll just call you that for now.”

Although it had been mentioned so many times, this was Lu Jue’s first official meeting with Daiwa Scarlet, “Come on, think about your rival, Vodka, next to you. You don’t want to lose and drink ‘ketsujiru’ while being mocked by her, do you?”

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”

The remaining few veteran players didn’t really need him to motivate them like this.

However, after seeing Air Groove, Lu Jue still, by some strange impulse, said, “Air Groove, run well if you don’t want to hear bad jokes.”

Air Groove didn’t react immediately, stunned stunned for a few seconds.

This Trainer is a bit mischievous...

Symboli Rudolf’s horse ears twitched in the front row.

What bad jokes? Does Trainer Lu also like to tell jokes?

It might be a good opportunity to communicate.

Tree is here!
