‘The guy spoke in an absolute sense and his tone brimmed with smugness. He was only 17-18 years old and seemed to be a senior high school student, probably a relative or friend of a classmate from Yun Jian’s class.
Someone spoke up immediately after the guy, “Wow, are you Cai Lin’s elder cousin, Cai Yi?”
‘When the guy, Cai Yi, heard that someone knew him, he nodded all puffed up. “Yes.”
“Huh, so you’re the elder cousin who Cai Lin from our class said to be excellent in horse racing? I’ve heard that you’ve joined the—uh, provincial level race and gotten the second place!”
Once the student who asked Cai Yi just now heard that the latter was indeed the horse racing expert who he had heard about before and was said to be impressive, he admired Cai Yi even more—especially when they were going to have a race soon.
“Heh, I’ve only gotten the second place. It’s something anyone could’ve done as long as they stay determined and race once a day for three years like I do,” Cai Yi said humbly, thinking that the trumpet was not blown hard enough.
Sometimes, the more humble it sounded, the more boastful it actually was. Cai Yi was only humble to contrast his swagger. That was all.
More people around them heard what he said and they showered him with praises.
“Wow, that’s so cool. See, he’s so good because he trains. That’s three years! He’s amazing for persevering!”
“Tm so impressed by him! He could be like, the coolest guy in school!”
Students around them began to comment among each other and that made Cai Yi feel prouder, as if he was really some big shot.
Zhang Shaofeng was angry while Yun Jian walked into the herd of horses with a squint and untied a horse that was tied to a wooden pole. “I’l pick this one!”
“Hey, hey, hey, young lady. This horse isn’t easy to control. It’s the most aggressive horse in the stable here. Anyone who rides it will fall off in less than three seconds and only an elite horse trainer could ride it—barely, even then!”
“You’ll break your leg if you ride it!”
Uncle Zhang who saw Yun Jian untying the aggressive horse’s rope hurried over to stop her.
“Uncle Zhang, why don’t I try taming this horse? I’m not the best but I’ve been learning for three years already,” Cai Yi came over and told Uncle Zhang, repressing his eagerness, when he heard what the older man said.
“Uh…” Uncle Zhang looked troubled.
“Don’t worry, Uncle Zhang. I can do it!” Cai Yi assured him confidently. He was just waiting to shine in front of his peers!
“Alright then,” Uncle Zhang agreed with a nod after a two-second silence.
Yun Jian stayed quiet, standing on the spot and watching Cai Yi led the horse to the group.
Due to what Uncle Zhang said, everyone tensed up as they looked over. The elder man claimed that this horse could only be tamed by an elite horse trainer! What Cai Yi was doing right now was obviously a challenge to see if he could tame this aggressive horse.
‘The teenagers found their attention attracted by this as they nervously watched what was about to happen.
Feeling the gazes trained on him, Cai Yi was even more excited to show off himself. He grabbed the rein and forcefully stepped on the stirrup to sit himself on the back of the aggressive horse directly.
Once he got seated, the aggressive horse neighed in a low growl and shook itself in a frenzy. Cai Yi was stunned for a few seconds before he clung to the rein but was thrown to the ground in less than three seconds.
He held back the pain he felt and stood up quickly. To make it less embarrassing for himself, he purposely explained, “This is really an aggressive horse. I think none of us here can tame it…”
It was when he said that, that everyone saw a petite silhouette flashing before their eyes.
They saw Yun Jian sprinting forward, using less than three seconds to reach the horse, and stomping her feet on the ground before doing a somersault and riding the horse without even needing to step on the stirrup.
At the same time, she grabbed the aggressive horse’s rein. The moment the horse bellowed and shook itself vehemently, she held the rein and used it to constrain the restless horse in the shortest time possible—until the horse quieted down and was tamed by her.
The surrounding was pin-drop silence. Yun Jian sat on the horseback holding the rein. With a smile, she looked down at the others and announced four shocking words with the commanding flair of a general, “This horse is mine..””
