Save the Bachelor of Heaven

 Chapter 4121 4123【Elective Courses】

Come February, Hufflepuff and Slytherin hold a Quidditch match.

Not surprisingly, Hufflepuff was defeated by Slytherin again.

As a result, the championship and runner-up will be competed by Slytherin and Gryffindor, while the third and third place will be competed by Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.

Entering March, during the Easter holiday, Xiang Nan still did not go home, but continued to read at school.

He has now read most of the books in the school library. If he wants to read the remaining small part before the end of the semester, he will have to work overtime.

For this reason, he even reduced the number of times he went to the Room of Requirement to find Fenrir to gain spell-casting experience.

After all, spell casting experience can be earned at any time, but the books in the school library cannot be read during the summer vacation.

In April, after the Easter holidays, the third Quidditch match between Laclaw and Hufflepuff was held.

This time Ravenclaw finally won a victory and achieved the third place, while Hufflepuff was ranked third.

Entering May, the last game is Gryffindor versus Slytherin.

James Potter successfully caught the Golden Snitch and helped Gryffindor win the Quidditch championship. This greatly increased his popularity in Gryffindor and became a well-known figure.

And during this game, Tim Brown, a teacher who teaches Defense Against the Dark Arts, was unfortunately hit in the head by a Bludger. His skull cracked on the spot, causing a severe concussion, and he had to be sent to St. Mungo's. Magic hospital treatment.

His encounter further verified the legend that the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts was cursed by Voldemort.

…

In May, second-year students begin to choose elective courses for the new semester.

Elective courses include five subjects: Divination, Arithmetic Divination, Ancient Magical Literature, Muggle Studies and Care of Magical Creatures. Each student must choose at least three of them, but of course, they can choose all.

People like Hermione Granger, Percy Weasley, and Barty Crouch Jr. took all five courses.

Xiang Nan didn't choose them all. He chose Arithmetic Divination, Ancient Magical Literature and Care of Magical Animals.

In fact, divination and arithmetic divination are useless, because divination and arithmetic divination extremely test talent. For those who do not have the talent for prediction, no matter how they learn it, it will be useless.

The reason why Professor Trelawney was able to predict successfully was because she was the great-great-granddaughter of a very well-known and very talented prophet. This was a skill that was passed down from family to family and could not be learned by others.

If students were not required to take three elective courses, Xiang Nan would not even take Arithmetic Divination, which was a waste of time and energy. However, ancient magical literature and the protection of magical animals are somewhat interesting.

Lily didn't choose Arithmancy, she chose Divination, Ancient Magic and Care of Magical Creatures. Pure-blood wizards such as Gregory Foley, James Potter, and Sirius Black all chose Muggle studies.

…

In June, we enter the exam season.

Xiang Nan continued to sell intelligence-enhancing potions and cooling potions, earning gold galleons, and the supply was still in short supply.

The exam was really simple for Xiang Nan. The Potions class requires a swelling potion. As the name suggests, this potion causes the limbs to swell when it comes into contact with the body. It is an extremely effective poison.

Xiang Nan is no stranger to preparing this kind of potion.

Because he discovered another strange use of this potion, that is, it can be used as "Indian sacred oil". Don't be greedy, just apply a thin layer and it will do wonders.

The drug was subsequently snapped up at Slug & Giggs Pharmacy, with demand exceeding supply. So Xiang Nan once cooked this medicine every day and accumulated rich experience.

In the Charms class, students are required to cast the Expanding Curse, the Freezing Curse, the Oolong Curse, the Slug-eating Curse and the Disarming Curse. These spells are not difficult for Xiang Nan.

Because during this year, he had tormented Fenrir almost every day, using him as a target for his spells. Therefore, he has mastered these spells so well that he can cast them without a wand or chanting a spell.

The herbal medicine class requires students to collect the roots of mature mandrakes. Its root tubers are the key to brewing the resurrection potion. In "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", the person who was petrified by the basilisk was saved by the resurrection potion.

However, the mature mandrake is very ferocious and irritable, and is reluctant to come out of the flowerpot. If anyone dares to mess with them, they will make a piercing scream. And just hearing this sound can cause sudden death.

Therefore, students need to wear earmuffs before they can enter the greenhouse to operate. Even so, during the exam, a few students were still careless and heard a hint of Mandrake's scream, causing blood to flow from all their orifices.

Fortunately, Professor Sprout took action in time and cast a spell to stop the Mandrake from screaming, allowing them to escape the disaster. And their grades in the herbal medicine course were inevitably zero. Among them was Slytherin's Best Mulciber.

…

The Defense Against the Dark Arts class allows students to deal with ghosts, trolls and ghouls.

You need to use the mirror spell to deal with female ghosts, because female ghosts are ugly, but they think they are the most beautiful. So when they see their true appearance, they will be so frightened that they will panic and run away in confusion.

To deal with trolls, you need to use confusion spells. Because the IQ of trolls is very worrying. Although they are strong and can grow to three to five meters tall, their heads are only as big as potatoes, and their intelligence is not as good as that of a five-year-old child.

Therefore, after using the confusion spell, their already limited brains will become more chaotic and disorderly, and they may even kill themselves or each other.

Ghouls like dark and humid environments, so to deal with ghouls, you can use fluorescent flashes or blazing flames. Both of these spells will make them feel uncomfortable.

In Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall asked the students to turn a bird into a goblet. If there are no feathers on the teacup, it is considered a passing grade. The more gorgeous and exquisite the goblet is, the higher the score.

Most of the students could only pass, and Best Mulciber didn't even pass, so much so that his cup still had feathers on it.

Xiang Nan conjured up a very gorgeous goblet, which even had a picture of a warrior fighting a lion. This made Professor McGonagall very satisfied and praised Xiang Nan as one of the most talented students she had ever encountered.

…

After the exam, everyone has a week to relax.

Xiang Nan did not relax, but took the time to read the last dozen books he borrowed from the library.

It took him four semesters, nearly two years, to read all the professional books in the library except the restricted area.

This not only brought his knowledge reserve to a very rich level, but also brought his research on magic to a very high level.
