Chapter 346: Warriors' Hard Power and Soft Power

Fred's question is also what many young wizards want to ask.

For students, the Transfiguration and Gorgeous Spell flows are much more difficult to master, so at Hogwarts, the number of people using the Quick Attack flow is the largest.

Once the new copy is opened, conflicts between factions will definitely be a very common phenomenon.

In the dungeon, this kind of conflict between schools does not matter, but if the conflict still occurs during the warrior selection, it will be impossible to form a strong combat team.

Seeing that everyone had this question, Sebastian smiled and said, "Students who aspire to become warriors, I have a request for you here, that is to make the best use of your strengths and overcome your weaknesses."

Make the best of your strengths and overcome your weaknesses!

Harry's heart moved, and he instantly remembered that Professor Swann had been training him in Transfiguration and the coordination of multiple spells during this summer vacation.

It turns out that the professor had been making plans for himself since then.

"According to the famous barrel theory, in team combat, the overall level of a team is often not determined by the strongest player, but by the weakest player."

"Team battles are different from the games you played in Muggle Studies. In the game, everyone has their own distinct styles and responsibilities."

"But in a real-life team duel, if a player's fighting style is too singular, it is easy for the opponent team to find flaws and use them as a breakthrough point."

"The Top Five Tournament is the most prestigious competition among magic schools. To win the championship in this competition, the participating warriors must have no weaknesses."

"Warriors can have distinct fighting styles, but that should be something you actively show to the enemy. At critical moments, you must be able to flexibly switch fighting styles to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy."

No problem!

There is nothing wrong with this at all.

The young wizards had no objection to Sebastian's statement.

In their minds, only such people are qualified to be warriors and represent Hogwarts in the competition.

Otherwise, if the warriors we select have obvious weaknesses and become a burden to the team, we would not want that.

At this moment, all the students who aspired to become warriors felt the pressure coming upon them.

They quickly planned their training plans for the next two months in their minds, striving to meet the Warriors' requirements.

"Professor Swan, could you tell me a little more about the requirements for warriors?" a seventh-grade student asked loudly.

Hearing this question, the students' eyes lit up and they all looked at Sebastian.

Right!

Now that we've come to this, why don't you tell us in more detail about the Warriors' requirements.

Before, everyone just thought that if they were strong enough, they could become a warrior, but no one had ever thought that there were actually three types of responsibilities within the team: attack, cover, and support.

There are so many considerations for just one squad's combat, so who knows if there are more considerations in other aspects.

The young wizards all started to make a fuss, wanting Sebastian to tell them more useful knowledge.

"Since everyone wants to know," Sebastian raised his hands to quiet the students, "I will now tell you about the soft skills that a warrior should possess."

Soft power?

What is this statement?

Could it be that strength can be divided into hard and soft?

Professor Swann is extraordinary and always comes up with some unexpected new ideas.

"If you look at the records of previous competitions, it is not difficult to find that warriors often face some invisible obstacles and tests beyond their capabilities."

"In addition, many times the champion is not the strongest warrior. There are many invisible factors that hinder the road to victory."

"Then, at this time, the importance of soft power becomes apparent."

Sebastian took two steps forward, scanning all the students with sharp eyes.

“Let’s get back to the question, what is soft power?”

"In short, warriors should have qualities such as courage, wisdom, ambition and unity."

This... isn't this the quality that each of the four colleges represents?

The young wizards looked at each other, confused for a moment.

I thought Professor Swan would be able to say something different, but I didn't expect there was nothing new at all. It was a bit disappointing.

Seeing the expressions of the little wizards, Sebastian knew what they were thinking. He smiled gently and explained in detail.

"A warrior must possess extraordinary courage. The events in the Triwizard Tournament are often full of dangers. A warrior must be able to remain calm and brave enough to face all dangers and challenges."

"In addition to courage, wisdom is equally important. Each event in the Triwizard Tournament is full of complex situations. Only warriors who analyze calmly and think quickly can quickly find the best solution."

"The Warriors must always maintain their ambition to win the championship. This desire to win can help you withstand the physical and mental pressures of the game, stay awake during long-term challenges, and overcome physical fatigue or pain."

"As a team competition, the warriors should stick together and internal strife is absolutely not allowed to happen."

"Even," Sebastian's voice became a little deeper, "when necessary, take the initiative to make sacrifices for the victory of the team."

Sebastian chuckled. "These words are not just for the warriors of the Five Power Tournament. They also contain the professor's good wishes for all students."

"In the professor's eyes, each of you is a warrior on your own life path."

After hearing Sebastian's explanation, the little wizards' eyes sparkled. They couldn't help but become serious and straightened their chests, as if telling Sebastian that they were the most qualified warriors.

"Professor, is the [Warrior's Glory] instance prepared for this kind of situation? Would you mind giving us a brief introduction?"

Sebastian looked at the clever boy in the crowd and said with a grin.

"Since all students whose magic power has reached the level of an adult wizard are potential champions for the tournament, in order to allow you to get along well, the new dungeon will adopt a random matching mechanism within adjacent levels based on magic power levels."

Random match?

Doesn't that mean that as long as there are enough practice sessions, by the time the warriors are selected for the championship, all the teammates in the team will be familiar faces.

In this way, a lot of effort in adjustment can be saved.

How interesting!

The little wizards were itching to show off their skills.

As if sensing the eagerness in the students' hearts, Sebastian waved his hand.

"From now on, the [Warrior's Glory] dungeon is officially open. For the specific situation, you can experience, comprehend, and grow through duels yourself."

"Welcome to Warrior Canyon!"
