"Next, let me introduce to you the beautiful girls from Beauxbatons School of Magic! And their respected headmaster, Madame Maxime!"
Following this announcement, the young wizards of Hogwarts immediately turned their heads impatiently towards the door of the auditorium. Then, the solemn door slowly opened, and a group of witches in dark blue robes entered one after another with light and graceful dance steps!
Their movements are graceful and coordinated, as if they are dancing a mysterious and charming dance. Every movement is full of rhythm and rhythm, which makes people fall in love with them. Their every frown and smile exudes unique charm all the time, attracting everyone's attention.
Following closely behind them was a giant lady who was 3 meters tall. She walked slowly into the auditorium with steady steps.
The young wizards in the audience were immediately excited, especially the young boys, who stared at the beautiful witches with wide eyes and excitement.
However, Rowling said to himself curiously: "Beauxbatons is not a girls' school! Why are all the people who come here little witches?" He was very confused about this situation.
After Beauxbatons School entered, Dumbledore's voice sounded again: "Now, please welcome the wizards from Durmstrang! And their headmaster Igor Karkaroff!"
The young wizards' attention was immediately drawn to the group of people wearing cold dark leather clothes, with grim and determined faces, who walked into the auditorium, rhythmically beating the ground with sticks in their hands, accompanied by the passionate and powerful sound of drums.
Suddenly, they ran faster, jumped on the spot, and landed steadily with a perfect 360-degree backflip, directly in front of the auditorium. Then, they waved their wands casually, and a fire dragon appeared out of thin air, hovering in the air, attracting the audience's amazement.
Luo Lin secretly admired in his heart: "666... This deserves a score of 9.4! Because they are a bit 6."
Following behind them was the 18-year-old Seeker Victor Krum! He immediately pushed the dinner to a climax! Because almost all wizards had seen his wonderful performance in the Quidditch World Cup some time ago, especially Ron, who was Ron's idol!
As the Durmstrang team took their positions, Dumbledore stood up, and his voice echoed throughout the hall: "Welcome everyone to Hogwarts, I hope you have a wonderful night here! Now, please welcome old Barty Cross, the head of the Ministry of Magic, and let him introduce the election rules to us!"
Old Barty stood up and said, "For the sake of eternal glory, every level of the Triwizard Tournament will be a huge test! There may even be life-threatening situations, so the Ministry of Magic stipulates that all participating wizards must be over 17 years old!"
As soon as the news was announced, the young wizards in the audience were in an uproar. They stared at old Barty Cross with wide eyes in disbelief, and then began to whisper and discuss.
"What? Only those over seventeen years old can participate in the competition? Doesn't that mean many people have no chance?" Harry Potter widened his eyes, unable to believe it.
"Yeah, this is so unfair! Why can't we give everyone an equal chance?" Hermione Granger also echoed, her voice full of dissatisfaction.
"This is simply discrimination! Even though we are young, our strength is not necessarily worse than those older ones!" Ron Weasley waved his arms, very emotional.
Some even started to curse and protest: "What kind of broken rule is this? It's simply alarmist!" For a moment, the whole hall fell into chaos and the emotions of the little wizards became extremely excited.
Albus Dumbledore and other teachers sitting on the podium looked helpless, as if they had expected this result.
At this moment, the real-time weather on the ceiling of the auditorium flashed with lightning and thunder! Suddenly, a magic spell struck, and the wind and sea were calm in an instant!
Rowling also noticed the spell, turned around and looked, thinking to himself: "It's coming after all." It turned out that the one who cast the spell was Barty Crouch Jr. disguised as Alastor Moody!
Rowling did not intend to report him, because the trajectory of fate continued! Next, Harry Potter was chosen by the Goblet of Fire, and he must have been behind all this!
Now, Voldemort and I are irreconcilable, and Voldemort will never let me go! However, Voldemort came to find me, and I just wanted to destroy him completely! !
The young wizards were frightened by this sudden change, and stared at the strange man in front of them in amazement. One of his artificial legs was bent like an eagle's claw, and the blue magic eye in his eye socket kept moving, as if observing everything around him. His face was covered with wrinkles and scars, and he looked very vicissitudes of life.
"Oh my God, it's Mad-Eye Moody!" Ron was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Alastor Moody? The Auror?" Hermione asked confusedly.
"Yes, that's him! He's the one who captured half of the Death Eaters in Azkaban! But he's always acting crazy now. I heard from dad that he seems to have some strange disease. He has been dedicated to hunting down Death Eaters all his life, which has caused him to be in a state of high tension.
He no longer trusted anyone around him, and even had to carry food and water himself. Look at the water bottle on his waist, he never leaves it! Every scar on his body witnessed his glorious achievements in the past, but it was also because of his overly suspicious character that his colleagues in the Ministry of Magic gradually lost their favor for him, and finally he had no choice but to retire.
Everyone thought he had a mental problem. One of his eyes was blinded because of catching Death Eaters, and one of his legs was disabled because of it! That was a magic eye that could see through walls, behind people, and even invisible people!
That's why they call him Mad Moody or Mad-Eye Moody! Who would have thought he would end up here?" Ron explained to Hermione and Harry in detail.
"It seems that he has a very friendly relationship with Headmaster Dumbledore!" Harry couldn't help but sigh when he saw Moody and Dumbledore hugging each other excitedly. The two seemed to have a deep friendship, which made Harry more curious about this mysterious Auror.
Then, Barty Crouch Sr. looked around at the young wizards in the audience and continued loudly, "This is the rule of the Ministry of Magic, there is no doubt about it! In addition, these tests are also very dangerous! Only the most outstanding wizards are qualified to participate in the Triwizard Tournament. This is also a protection measure for you."
