Chapter 628 Examination and College Cup
·
Bai Bai Le Kai Shui
This "small" episode did not ruin Turville's interest in attending the dinner. As for the celebration, Dumbledore purchased large quantities of desserts from Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley...
It has nothing to do with this, absolutely not!
The students did not know this secret news, but this did not prevent them from having cheerful smiles on their faces.
Together with parents and graduates who hurried over, everyone sat together in the restored auditorium.
There were not even divided houses, including the students of Slytherin House, who were sitting chaotically on the four long tables, discussing happily or listening to the fierce battle that started last night.
Of course, the parents’ looks of blame are unavoidable. For example, in the Malfoy family, Draco boasted about facing Voldemort in front of his parents, and Narcissa turned his ears red...
Seeing this scene, Dumbledore stood up with a smile on his face.
To be honest, he had also been worried about the confrontation between various colleges, especially after the confidentiality law was abolished. This kind of confrontation was not conducive to this increasingly complex situation.
But I didn't expect that a battle with the same hatred and the same enemy would have unexpected gains.
"I'm very happy." Dumbledore said loudly, and the clear voice reached everyone's ears, causing the lively auditorium to fall silent.
"I'm glad to see that after facing many challenges, you are not afraid of the chaos and evil of war. You still have an enthusiastic smile on your face, and you still maintain good hope for the future..."
"We are still willing to believe that by working together, we can create a better future together."
"You know, after the secrecy law is abolished, the challenges we encounter may not be less or easier than those brought by Voldemort."
"It can even be said that when we are about to embrace a new future, we don't actually need to fight or hurt anyone."
"But we need to learn to be friendly, be friendly to people who don't understand magic, and express and show the friendly side of wizards to them."
"But I am very happy, very happy to see that you have taken the first step - you are willing to sit together with the colleges that have had differences in the past, and enjoy the fruits of victory with laughter."
The smile on Dumbledore's face became more and more pleased, even though the students in the audience realized that they were overjoyed and had inexplicably sat down with their mortal enemy.
"Excuse me, there seems to be a lot more to say today, and I originally planned to wait until after your final exams to announce it—"
"Are you kidding me?!" Ron stood up abruptly, very much like the Weasley twins. "I almost died on the battlefield, and you said we still have final exams?!"
"Die on the battlefield?"
Percy was keenly aware of what Ron had missed, and instantly attracted the attention of the Weasley family members.
"Didn't you just promise us that you have been hiding behind the professors?" Mrs. Weasley asked with a cold face.
"Uh……"
Ron sat down awkwardly, looking back and forth to his family members for help, only to find that his "good" brothers all avoided him in unison, while his sister Ginny shrugged helplessly and gave a helpless look in return.
"You may encounter a little danger if you hide behind the professor..."
He couldn't say he was too excited at the time, so he rushed to the front of the line with Harry.
If Hermione hadn't protected them in the end, they would probably still be lying in the school hospital now...
Seeing Ron being grabbed by the ears and scolded by Mrs. Weasley, Harry continued to laugh stupidly, but Dumbledore's expression on the stage turned grim.
Weiwei gave Professor McGonagall a look. After the two reached a consensus on making the students' exams more difficult, he continued his speech.
"As long as you are still students of Hogwarts, as long as Hogwarts is not destroyed, and as long as the magical world still exists, then you must accept the complete examination!"
Looking at the students who seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue, Dumbledore's lips curved into a sly and evil smile.
"But before that, I have one more thing, or rather, one honor to announce."
The students' attention was immediately diverted by his words, including the parents, who all looked curious.
"This year's College Cup will belong to the four houses of Hogwarts in recognition of your outstanding contributions in defending Hogwarts!"
"Tch." Ron immediately chirped disdainfully.
Draco, who was sitting not far away, rarely agreed with Ron's dissatisfaction.
"Everyone has won the Academy Cup, what's the difference between that and no one has won the Academy Cup?"
"You can't think about us Hufflepuffs... and Ravenclaws!"
Even after graduating, Cedric was still brooding over the fact that he had never won the Academy Cup. However, seeing the dangerous look in his girlfriend Qiu Zhang's eyes, he wisely added a second academy.
"Our two houses haven't won the House Cup for a long time, can't we kick Slytherin and Gryffindor out?"
Roger Davis on the other side immediately nodded in agreement, but the Weasley twins were unhappy.
"Okay, Cese and Luo Luo, how dare you say such a thing?!" George and Fred rushed over immediately, and the four of them immediately started playing happily.
only……
"Cese?" Qiu Zhang frowned and looked at the four people hugging each other strangely.
She had never even said such an affectionate name to Cedric!
Dumbledore didn't care, clapped his hands, and summoned the sumptuous dinner prepared by the elves.
Anyway, he was used to the mischief of the Weasley twins, and it had been a year since the two graduated, and the auditorium hadn't been so lively for a year.
The students and professors, who had been hungry all day, immediately feasted and ignored the details.
Teville, on the other hand, had to choose between the cake and curiosity for a long time, and finally couldn't help but look at the indifferent Snape.
"I said, since you can accept the teaching position of Defense Against the Dark Arts, why not consider it and contribute to the potion industry that will definitely shine all over the world in the future?"
Teville, with a majestic and upright attitude, patted Snape's shoulder directly with his big hand, but he didn't expect that not only did Snape not move at all, but he didn't even look at Teville.
"You just want my potion formulas, right?"
"Am I that kind of person?!" Tver asked loudly.
"There are so many diseases in this world, even potions need to be improved!"
"..."
Not to mention Snape, the professors on the faculty looked at Tver speechlessly, as if they were looking for a street light.
It has nothing to do with this, absolutely not!
