The day of the duel at Hogwarts

"Gryffindor!"

When the Sorting Hat announced Duke's house, Sean could clearly see that Duke was obviously relieved. Then he looked at Sean and received Sean's encouragement before going to Gryffindor's house. Dai Li sat at the long table together.

Seeing this scene, Blaise said with some regret: "It's a pity that the two of them didn't come to Slytherin."

"I don't think it's a pity. Everyone has their own path. It's not bad for them to go to Gryffindor."

After watching the sorting ceremony of Dai Li and Duke, Sean stopped paying attention and turned to chat with Brace and the others.

After the sorting ceremony, a large amount of food immediately appeared on the long tables of the four major colleges, and everyone started to enjoy it immediately. Although Sean complained a lot about British food, it did not affect his eating, besides, such as roast beef or roast chicken. The food and the grilled food were also very good, so Sean happily ate the portion for nearly six people, then wiped his mouth and took a sip of the apple juice in the cup.

As always, after the opening banquet, Dumbledore stood up again and began to explain to everyone what to pay attention to this year.

This includes Filchlaw's list of 430 seven-item banned items.

Finally, when Dumbledore said that there would be no Quidditch match this year, almost all the children from ordinary families and most of the children from wizarding families wailed in disbelief. Obviously, they could know in advance that the three After all, there are still a small number of people competing for hegemony.

"Please be patient, there is of course a reason why the Quidditch House Cup will be discontinued this year.

This is because a large-scale event will start in October and last throughout the school year. It will occupy all the teachers' energy and time outside class, but I believe you can get a lot of fun and happiness from it.

I am very happy to announce to everyone that this year’s Hogwarts will be held..."

boom!

Before Dumbledore could finish his words, the door of the auditorium was knocked open from the outside.

A man stood in the doorway, leaning on a long cane and wrapped in a dark traveling cloak.

Sean looked at the other party. He could clearly see the other party's constantly rotating magic eyes and scarred face. He walked step by step towards the professor's desk, his limping legs stepping on the There was a hollow thud on the floor, and he walked straight to Dumbledore, and the two men turned their heads and whispered greetings.

"Long time no see, Dumbledore."

"Welcome, Aratos, my friend."

Nodding, Aratos Moody sat on the empty seat next to Dumbledore. He pulled out a knife from his arms, cut off a piece of roast beef in front of him, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it. The blue magic eyes on his face were rotating all the time, constantly observing everyone present.

At this time, Blaise, who was sitting next to Sean, came close to Sean and whispered to him: "He is Aratus Moody, a former Auror of the Ministry of Magic, nicknamed Mad Eye.

It is said that he captured at least half of the people in Azkaban. The dark wizards in Knockturn Alley hated him with hatred, but they could do nothing about him.

Many people in our college hate him, because many of their relatives were captured by him and thrown into Azkaban. It seems that he is our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year. "

As soon as Brace finished speaking, Dumbledore explained to everyone: "This is Professor Moody, our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year. I believe he will bring you very interesting content."

Mad-Eye Moody's appearance and style really made it difficult for students to get close to each other, so it was difficult for them to be enthusiastic. After Dumbledore finished speaking, only a handful of people clapped their hands symbolically. , the scene was quite cold.

Of course, Mad Eye Moody didn't seem to care about this at all. He continued to eat as usual, then picked up the cup and took a sip of pumpkin juice.

Seeing the indifferent scene, Dumbledore didn't take it seriously. He just coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and continued: "As I just said, in the next few months, we will be very... It is an honor to present a very important and exciting event that has not been held for a century.

I am very honored and happy to tell you that the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year! "

It was quiet for a while at first, and then the whole auditorium started to boil like water in a boiling pot.

The Weasley twins of Gryffindor even jumped on the chairs and cheered loudly, and they repeatedly asked: "Isn't this a joke? Professor Dumbledore, you really are not kidding, are you?" "

Looking at the Weasley twins with a smile, Dumbledore nodded and said: "Of course this is not a joke! But since you mentioned a joke, I have a joke here. The content is, a troll, a dominatrix, and a little Leprechaun, they walked into the same tavern together..."

Before Dumbledore could finish his words, Professor McGonagall, who was sitting nearby, cleared his throat.

"Oh, of course, it's not appropriate to talk about this now, so let's get down to business..."

Next, Dumbledore began to introduce the content of the Triwizard Tournament to everyone, including the history of the Triwizard Tournament, and that this Triwizard Tournament only allowed students over the age of 17 to participate. Many students protested against this , but Dumbledore's firm attitude told them that the protest was invalid.

"Sean, who do you think can represent Hogwarts in the Triwizard Tournament?"

"There are not many capable people in the sixth and seventh years. If we really want to select candidates to participate in the Triwizard Tournament, there is a high probability that they will not be selected from Slytherin."

Blaise has always been very convinced of Sean's judgment. Now when he heard Sean say this, he immediately sighed regretfully and said, "It would be great if there was no age limit. In that case, you would definitely be able to become a Hogwart." Representative of here, after all, there is probably no student in Hogwarts who can compare to you."

"There is no way to cross the age limit. Let's just watch the game with peace of mind. I think this year will be a very interesting year with the existence of the Triwizard Tournament."

The opening banquet was over and all the announcements had been made. The students from the four major colleges got up and returned to their own colleges.

And just when Sean followed the team to the dungeon and was about to return to the Slytherin common room, the elusive Snape suddenly appeared and called Sean directly into his office.
