Chereads / STARTING AT HOGWARTS / Chapter 49 - Chapter 49: The Charm of the Qualifying Round

Chapter 49 - Chapter 49: The Charm of the Qualifying Round

It was Potions class in the afternoon.

The process was similar to the original plot.

As the son of a love rival, Harry was berated by Snape and lost a lot of school points.

As Harry's friend, Ron was also caught and subjected to a barrage of questions.

But at this time, the effect of five years of learning "guided" by William Li was also revealed.

Ron was able to answer all the questions in the face of Snape's difficulties.

In the end!

Snape could only use the far-fetched reason of not paying attention in class to deduct five points from him.

Then he turned his attention back to Harry.

However!

What surprised William Li the most was that Snape's attitude towards him and Hermione was a little weird!

During class, he kept looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

His eyes were quite complicated.

There was sadness, grief, nostalgia, memories, sighs, and relief. If William Li didn't know what kind of person Snape was in the original plot, he would really think that the other party had some thoughts about him!

And what about Hermione?

In the original plot, when Harry was targeted, Hermione desperately raised her hand to help Harry out and help the school keep the score, but she was ignored by Snape.

But today, Snape didn't know what was wrong. Not only did he give Hermione a chance to answer, he also gave Gryffindor ten points.

"Did Snape take the wrong potion?"

With this doubt, Li William finished a day's class.

In the evening!

Eight o'clock!

The people of Slytherin gathered in the common room consciously.

And under the attention of everyone, Li William came to them.

"Tonight, I will start the first day of qualifying!"

Li William said lightly, took out the magic wand, pointed it at the wall behind him, and directly cast two magic spells:

"Invisible Extension Charm!"

"Transfiguration!"

The first one directly extended the area of the common room by more than ten times.

And the second one, on the expanded area of the common room, transformed seven arenas.

Under each arena, there are also different signs.

The bronze sign with a bronze wand in the middle with a cyan background.

Silver is the background color, with a silver wand and a silver logo in the middle.

Gold is the background color, with a yellow turban wand and a gold logo in the middle.

Platinum is the background color, with a platinum logo of a platinum wand in the middle.

Purple is the background color, with a diamond logo of a purple wand in the middle.

Black is the background color, with a black wand in the middle, dotted with white dots around, like a star logo in the night.

Gold is the background color, dark gold is the border, with the most powerful wand in Harry Potter, the Elder Wand logo in the middle.

"Seven arenas correspond to seven levels, which can be distinguished according to the logo under the arena!"

While explaining, Li William also used Transfiguration to create seven boxes, a stack of notes, and several pens, and handed them to Jin and other class leaders.

After that, he said, "Now the class leader will distribute the slips and pens, and let everyone write their names on the slips, and then collect them. The slips of the same grade will be placed in a box!"

"Yes!"

Jin and others were a little confused, but they agreed in unison and did what Li William said.

Soon!

The slips with all the names in the academy were collected and placed in a box.

Seeing this!

Li William came to the box, looked at the many Slytherins in front of him, and then explained, "The function of the box is to draw the names of the two people who will fight. Each class leader will draw them, and the two people who are drawn will go on stage to fight!"

"In addition, in order to ensure that every student can go on stage to fight, all the slips of each grade must be drawn before they can put the slips in and start the second draw!"

"Okay, now I will arrange two people to demonstrate!"

As he said, he reached out and took out two slips of paper from the first grade box.

"Let me see Malfoy and Vincent!"

After Li William read out the names on the note, he said, "You two, come out!"

Malfoy and Vincent hurried out.

And then!

Li William took out fourteen badges shaped like the ring logo, showed them to everyone, and explained.

"This is my special magic prop, in pairs, seven pairs in total, fourteen pieces, corresponding to bronze, silver, gold, and other levels, the two people who will go on stage later will wear badges corresponding to their levels!"

"And this badge is attached with two magics, Shield Charm and Apparition!"

"Once hit by any attack, whether it is a magic attack or a physical attack, it will be automatically triggered, using Shield Charm to offset the attack, and Apparition will take you away from the ring!"

"At the same time, it also means that you have lost a game!"

"In addition, the badge also needs to be charged. Every time it is activated, it needs to be re-injected with magic power to be activated again, so the loser must inject his own magic power into the badge before giving it to the next person on stage!"

"If the loser does not have enough magic power, then the class leader will inject magic power!"

These badges were made by Li William using his alchemy that has reached Level 3, specifically for the qualifying competition.

It is to save the lives of the little wizards.

After all, magic is dangerous.

If you are not careful, you may cause irreparable harm to someone.

Li William's purpose is to make people roll inward and increase the roll value. In this case, he naturally needs to take protective measures.

otherwise!

Once any damage occurs during the qualifying match, Dumbledore will never allow the arena to continue.

In the corner of Slytherin, two figures who were secretly observing the situation here looked at each other and put down the wands in their hands almost at the same time.

after!

William Li walked forward with two bronze badges, and after giving them to Vincent and Malfoy respectively, he said directly, "Now, pick up your wands and defeat each other!"

Malfoy and Vincent listened to this. After being stunned for a moment, Malfoy decisively picked up the wand.

Vincent showed hesitation.

He is Malfoy's follower!

To be honest, he would be a little panicked if he attacked Malfoy.

but!

Malfoy doesn't care about that!

"All petrified!"

He decisively used magic.

Vincent, who did not pick up the wand, naturally had no power to resist.

The next second!

There was a flash of white light.

Vincent was transferred directly from the ring to the ring!

"Jin, take a piece of paper and write it down later. Malfoy wins and the victory is increased by one!"

After William Li said this, he added, "However, Vincent is suspected of letting loose. Today is the first day of the game. It's fine if you don't understand the rules. If this happens next time, the two of them will It will directly reduce the number of wins!"

"clear!"

Malfoy and Vincent were shocked and said quickly.

immediately!

William Li looked at the Slytherins around him and said, "Do you all understand?"

"Understood!"

While everyone in Slytherin agreed, their faces also showed expressions of eagerness to try.

After William Li gave a simple demonstration, they basically understood!

It's nothing more than drawing a name and then going on stage to hit the opponent!

After hearing this, William Li smiled and said directly, "Now that we understand everything, the game begins!"

As he spoke, he said to the prefects, "Jin, you are responsible for selecting the qualifying contestants for sixth and seventh grade, and the others are responsible for selecting the qualifying contestants for one grade each!"

"yes!"

After Jin and the other prefects agreed, they began to draw names.

soon!

After being selected by several prefects, students from seven grades came on stage one after another to start the competition.

"All petrified!"

"Expelliarmus!"

"Oolong comes out of the hole!"

Under the spells cast by the little wizards, magic bloomed on the arena.

It has to be said that these little wizards performed poorly because they had not experienced any actual combat.

Most of the fights are between you and me, and they are basically not enjoyable to watch.

But even so, the little wizards were very excited.

In schools, there are not many opportunities for this kind of practical combat!

As the competition progressed, the results soon came to light.

Some lose and some win.

The loser feels unwilling to lose and feels that he is just a little unlucky.

"It was just a little bit close. If I had recited the spell faster, all the petrification would have fallen on him, and I would have won!"

"Unexpectedly, I thought he would use offensive magic, so I used many obstacles to resist his magic. In the end, he actually used Curse Stop first, which offset my many obstacles!"

"Damn it, I was too impatient. I fell on the ring and the opponent took advantage of me!"

And what about winning people?

They still want to win more so that they can accumulate wins and advance to the next level.

"We won, but it's not enough. There are still six days until Sunday. We must win a few more games in these six days to distance ourselves from the others!"

"It's great to win, come again, come again!"

"I am no match for the prefect, but I want the position of prefect!"

Between winning and losing, two hours passed.

"The game ends today!"

Following William Li's order, many Slytherins could only disperse without wanting to finish.

"I lost all three games today. No, I have to study the tactics tonight. I can't just lose tomorrow. Losing is a small matter. What a shame if we drop out in the end!"

"Although I won three games today, the next two games were mostly based on luck. I can't have such luck every day. I have to study magic and practice hard when I go back!"

"Today I lost one game and won two. There is only one win. If this continues, it will be difficult to advance. You must work hard!"

Regardless of whether they lose or win today, almost all Slytherins have secretly made up their minds to go back and work hard to learn magic or study tactics to prepare for tomorrow's qualifying match!

Under this idea!

Farming value +1!

Farming value +1!

farming value +1!

Almost immediately, the Farming value on William Li's system panel began to increase crazily.

"Those who win still want to win, and those who lose don't want to lose again. This is the charm of qualifying!" Looking at this situation, William Li had a smile on his face.

Just then!

"Whoop whoosh!"

A phoenix flew in front of William Li, dropped a letter in front of him, turned around and flew away!

"Isn't this Dumbledore's phoenix?"

Li William looked at the back of the phoenix flying away, raised his eyebrows, muttered to himself, and subconsciously picked up the letter on the ground.

After opening it, he found that there was only one sentence on it.

Come to my office!
