Chapter 30 Unexpected Selection Results
After an afternoon of testing, seven contestants stood out and became members of the Hogwarts Quidditch team.
The Seeker was Charlie Weasley, a seventh-year Gryffindor.
The goalkeeper was Oliver Wood from the fourth year Gryffindor.
The two batsmen were Marcus Flint, a fifth-year Slytherin, and Debbie Henry, a seventh-year little witch from Ravenclaw.
The three Chasers are Landon Coke, a seventh-year Slytherin, Paul Ford, a seventh-year Ravenclaw, and Cedric Diggory, a second-year Hufflepuff.
Among them, Charlie was appointed captain of the school Quidditch team with his first place selection result.
Sebastian was still a little surprised by this result.
Not to mention a few senior students, after all, they already have many years of Quidditch experience, so it is not surprising that they were selected.
Among them, Wood is a well-known Quidditch fanatic, and no matter wind or rain, his training has never been affected.
Charlie and the others still held the same positions as before. Those who were seekers were still seekers, and those who were goalkeepers were still goalkeepers.
But, wasn’t Marcus a Chaser before? How come he could always hit the Bludger so accurately?
And Cedric Diggory...
He is just a second-grade wizard!
Is the talent so high?
Also, if I remember correctly, Cedric in the original book was a seeker.
Unexpectedly, he is also quite talented as a chaser.
Who said the badger doesn't know how to attack?
The shooting is quite accurate!
A large group of young Hufflepuff wizards surrounded Cedric and congratulated him, and even the senior students who were not selected did not hesitate to give their blessings.
I can only say that they are worthy of being little badgers, and their main theme is unity and friendship.
Hey......
If only all Hogwarts students were as friendly as the badgers.
Sebastian didn't have the heart to interrupt the little wizards' celebration, so he just said loudly:
"The seven selected students will gather at the Quidditch field at 5: pm on Monday."
“Enjoy this weekend.”
Seeing the professor leave, the young wizards started to celebrate. They surrounded the school team players and returned to their respective common rooms.
Let’s celebrate today!
On the way back to the Slytherin common room, Marcus paid for several students to go to Hogsmeade to buy butterbeer.
Afterwards, he made a bold statement: "No one can stop today's celebration, not even the professors!"
The young Slytherin wizards cheered and rushed to the common room playfully, completely unaware of Snape's face which turned black when he heard their shouting.
Only two people were selected.
What's there to be happy about!
Snape stood at the door of the office and endured again and again, but in the end he did not interrupt the interest of these little guys!
Take care of your students!
Take care of your students!
He took a deep breath, repeated it to himself twice, then turned back to his office and slammed the door shut.
......
On Monday afternoon, seven young wizards arrived at the Quidditch field early with their brooms.
They stood in pairs according to their respective houses and chatted, with only Cedric standing alone in the middle.
There's nothing we can do about it, since only one young wizard was selected for Hufflepuff.
This was the scene Sebastian saw when he arrived at the Quidditch field.
He sighed inwardly.
Hey......
There is still a long way to go to break down barriers.
Sebastian waved to the students and said loudly: "The seven selected students, come here, I have gifts for you."
Hearing that there were gifts, the little ones became interested and gathered around. Even the little wizards watching on the sidelines stretched their necks to take a look.
They were all very interested in what Professor Swan would give to the school team members.
After all, in the eyes of the little wizards, Professor Swan is famous for his generosity.
Seeing the seven students coming to him, Sebastian took out seven large gift boxes he had prepared and handed them to them.
"What are you waiting for? Open it and take a look!"
After hearing what the professor said, the students looked at each other and could no longer suppress their curiosity, so they opened the gift box.
Inside was a black Quidditch uniform, with a matching Quidditch hat and a pair of windproof glasses.
Seeing this full set of equipment, Charlie immediately took off his jersey and put it on.
"Wow!"
Seeing Charlie fully dressed, the little wizards who were watching exclaimed in amazement.
"So handsome!"
"This black jersey looks so classy!"
“It’s much better looking than the uniforms of the various colleges!”
"And the Hogwarts crest!"
"Really want!"
The Weasley twins who were standing on the sidelines ran directly to Charlie and began to caress the uniform lovingly, which made Charlie feel a chill.
While the other players were also wearing the uniforms, Sebastian said to them: "This uniform is more than just cool."
"It's waterproof and has a heat-insulating function, so you won't be too cold even in winter."
"The hat can protect your heads from being hit by the Bludgers and causing serious injuries."
"Windproof glasses are not only windproof, but also dustproof and waterproof. This way, you can see clearly even in heavy rain."
"I arranged for Swan to prepare these for you on Sunday."
"As a benefit for you to join the school Quidditch team."
After hearing these words, several contestants suddenly felt full of strength and wanted to fly up to the sky on their brooms for a few laps.
They puffed out their chests, their faces beaming with pride, and they all sighed in their hearts that their hard work paid off!
The little wizards who were watching started shouting even more.
"Professor! We want it too!"
"Professor, is it sold in Swann's Alchemy?"
"Professor, I made a mistake during the trials. Please give me another chance!"
Hearing the cries of the young wizards, Sebastian quickly comforted them, "This selection is fair, just, and open!"
"Don't worry, guys who weren't selected. The school team will re-select every year when school starts."
"You guys train hard and do your best next year. As long as you are selected for the school team, you will have equipment."
"Students who have been selected should not slack off. It would be very embarrassing if they were not selected next year."
After that, he took out seven brooms and handed them to the seven team members.
The little guys were stunned.
what's the situation?
Join the team and get a flying broom?!
Or this year’s latest model – Sweeping Seven Stars!
The professor is very generous!
They quickly asked, "Professor, is this also for us?"
Sebastian said unhappily, "What the hell are you dreaming of?"
"These brooms are the property of the school Quidditch team."
"You only have the right to use these brooms."
"What are you waiting for! Start practicing!"
