Chapter 120: Malfoy, the Double Beauty
After the potions class, the students left the underground classroom in shock.
They had seen students praised by the teacher, students who talked back to the teacher, and students who talked and laughed with the teacher, but this was the first time they had seen... a student who wanted to teach the teacher.
It was really a wand poking Pi Yan - eyes opened!
What happened in the classroom soon spread throughout the school. After hearing about it, many people were shocked and unbelievable.
It was shocking that Rolf had changed Snape's potion operation without authorization and was able to get extra points for the school. This time it was even more outrageous...
The most outrageous thing was that after he said that to Snape, he was able to walk out of the potions classroom alive, and Hufflepuff was not deducted points. In the eyes of many people, this was already the science fiction film of the year.
Everyone couldn't help but be confused:
Is this still the Professor Snape with a bad temper, bad personality, extreme double standards, and a love of yin and yang?
Will Rolf have a handle on him; or is he controlled by the Imperius Curse; or someone used Polyjuice Potion to pretend to be him?
It seems that only these three possibilities make it easier for everyone to accept.
The chemistry mentioned by Rove was also hotly discussed by students. The young wizards all believed that this was a subject that could make potions easier.
But where can you learn it?
In the Muggle Studies class, Professor Bubbage "accidentally" leaked the news that she had a Ph.D. in chemistry from Creedon University.
So, every day, there was an endless stream of students going to the class.
Professor Bubbage immediately announced that she would lead everyone to develop a chemical product - mustard gas. When a student asked what mustard gas was, she explained that it was a Muggle perfume.
Professor Bubbage also asked the young wizards to quickly make mustard gas and give it to the students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang as a surprise when they arrived.
Thinking that this was for the great friendship of the three schools, the students became more motivated, and they were also looking forward to the two schools coming to Hogwarts.
In mid-October, a notice was finally posted on the school bulletin board:
Representatives from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will arrive at 6pm on Friday, October 30th.
The afternoon classes will end half an hour early. Students are requested to gather in front of the castle to greet our guests and attend the welcome banquet.
The appearance of this notice made the students even more excited. In the following week, no matter where they went, everyone was talking about the same topic:
The Triwizard Tournament.
Who will become the champion of Hogwarts, what events will be in the tournament, and how the students of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang are different from them are also the subjects of heated discussion.
Malfoy talked about Durmstrang all day long, praising the teaching there, which is far better than Hogwarts.
He also said that his father and Headmaster Karkaroff are close friends, and he is considering transferring to Durmstrang to bring his magical talent to Northern Europe.
When everyone retorted that in the magic school evaluation, Hogwarts ranked sixth, and Durmstrang ranked only tenth, Malfoy argued:
"This is a fake ranking!"
"Who said a fake ranking? This is clearly the ranking released by the International Confederation of Wizards, which is an official statistic!"
Malfoy blushed, and the veins on his forehead burst out. He argued, "Drmstrang's hard power is stronger than Hogwarts... hard power!"
He kept saying things that were difficult to understand, such as "the suppression of the International Confederation of Wizards" and "Drmstrang and Yin Famori are the twin beauties in the magic school", which made everyone laugh.
Yin Famori ranked first among the magic schools, so how can you, Durmstrang, be worthy of twin beauties?
Justin was a typical Hogwarts braggart. He believed that among the eleven magic schools, Hogwarts' comprehensive strength was not the strongest, but also one of the top three.
They shouldn't have played with Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, two "bad students". Wouldn't it pollute their own database if two bad chess players got together?
However, I heard from Rolf that Beauxbatons was extremely luxurious with the support of Nicolas Flamel, and the treatment of students was even better:
Single dormitory room with private bathroom, free tuition, textbooks, magic materials, crucibles and other teaching equipment, public flying brooms are ready to introduce Firebolts, and there are several times more scholarships than Hogwarts...
Justin regretted it so much that he slapped himself in the face. If he had known that he would go to Beauxbatons, they were all low-ranking garbage schools. Why did he have to stay in this "old and broken" Hogwarts!
However, everyone suddenly found that the homework had increased significantly in the past few weeks, and even Professor Trelawney assigned the homework of predicting her own fortune to two years later.
When the students couldn't help complaining, the good Professor Flitwick explained in the Charms class:
"This is to make you concentrate, take your attention away from the Triwizard Tournament and focus on studying."
When it comes to the Triwizard Tournament, the students started to grumble again, and Hannah couldn't help but raise her hand and asked:
"Professor Flitwick, how are the champions selected?"
Everyone looked at Professor Flitwick with expectation. He was a well-known good guy and the only teacher who might leak the news.
But Professor Flitwick remained tight-lipped. He shook his head and smiled:
"I can't tell you, but the selection will definitely be fair. You can rest assured that the best students will be selected as champions."
"Professor, I... have a friend." Ron couldn't help asking:
"His academic performance may not be very good, Quidditch may not be outstanding, and his fighting skills are so-so, but I know that he is excellent...Does a student like this have a chance to become a Hogwarts warrior?"
"Mr. Weasley." Professor Flitwick asked in a sharp voice: "This friend of yours can't do this or that. Do you think he has a chance to become a warrior?"
"But in my opinion, he is indeed excellent." Rondu muttered.
"Then you have to at least name a few good things about it, right?"
Ron groaned and held it in for a long time before saying, "He... plays wizard chess very well."
Professor Flitwick stood on a pile of books and said softly: "Then I suggest that your friend participate in the wizard chess youth competition. There is no need to become a warrior."
The students all laughed.
Harry also smiled and said: "Ron, this friend of yours is so funny. He can't do anything, but he still feels good about himself. Haha~ Why didn't I know you had such a friend?"
Ron: "..."
Professor Flitwick coughed a few times and said loudly: "Okay, everyone, pay attention to the blackboard. I will explain the Flying Curse to you again. We can start practicing it in the next class..."
Rolf looked at the blackboard and asked in a low voice: "Hermione, how is the potion I want you to brew?"
Hermione copied the writing on the blackboard and nodded: "There's only one week left, it's almost ready... By the way, what do you want that potion for?"
Luo Fu raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Keep it secret, you will know after a while..."
