Just as Dumbledore was waiting for everyone's appetite to say the name of the match a few minutes late. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The door to the Info auditorium was violently slammed open, and a man with a long cane and a black cloak appeared in the doorway, lightning lit up the sky, and gray hair looming under the cloak.

Oooo He walked straight down the side of the hall to the podium and headed towards Dumbledore. Another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and all the students sitting at the front of the auditorium couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Like a piece of rotten wood, his face was covered with all kinds of scars, and of course, the most striking thing was the man's eyes. One eye was small, black, shiny, and the other was large, round, but a bright blue, and the eye turned unblinking, sometimes even turning back, leaving everyone with a huge white eyeball.

Dumbledore was also very happy to see the visitor, the two shook hands, said something, and let the person sit in the seat of the previous Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. Seeing this, everyone has already understood the identity of the person who came.

Dumbledore, who was interrupted, didn't react in any way, only lightly breaking the silence: "Allow me to introduce our new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Moody. ”

All the students in the hall seemed stunned, except for Dumbledore and Hagrid, who applauded twice and put their hands down in embarrassment.

"As I said," Dumbledore continued, clearing his throat, "over the next few months, Hogwarts is proud to host a wonderful event that hasn't been held in over a century. I'm happy to report that the Triwizards Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year. ”

"You're kidding!" Fred Weasley's protest can be heard, as for why Fred Weasley, it's because the twin brothers all look the same, and causing trouble at the same time, just like this protest, the two people also shouted in unison, but it doesn't matter, if you want to punish a person, you can just call a name, because the punishment of two people is the same from childhood to adulthood, even Mrs. Weasley can't accurately tell who is Fred and who is George. In short, one person's pot is carried by two people, so why not two people get into trouble together?

The dreary atmosphere had been swept away since Moody entered the hall, but there was no big reaction from Holly. She was observing Moody, since Moody entered the hall, Holly just had an uncomfortable feeling for no reason, not the kind being watched, but her own territory, as if she had broken into an alien creature, even if that creature did not affect your life, like a fallen leaf falling into a pond, in fact, it did not cause much fluctuation in the water surface, but it may have ruined a picturesque scene.

Thinking of the news that he received in the morning about something wrong with Moody's house, and even caused Muggles to intervene, Holly's brows couldn't help frowning, and scared the newly enrolled little wizards sitting next to him nervous, as if what he had just behaved was not decent enough, and after being seen by this "prefect", he felt that it was not good enough, and he could only say that it was a disaster.

By the time Holly came to his senses and decided to get some information about Moody later, Dumbledore's introduction had been going on for some time.

"The Triwizard Tournament was founded over 700 years ago and is a kind of friendship competition between the three largest wizarding schools in Europe. The three schools are: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrang. Each school selects an outstanding student to represent the school and then competes in three competitions. …… But later, the number of deaths was so great that the Triwizard Tournament was interrupted. ”

"Death toll?" a whisper rang out in the hall. Quite a few students have heard this word. But more than that, I'm excited about the competition.

"Over the course of a century, several attempts have been made to revive the game," Dumbledore continued, "but not a single one has succeeded. This time, however, the Department of International Magical Cooperation and the Department of Magical Sports of the Ministry of Magic agreed that the time was ripe for another attempt. We did a lot of work during the holidays to make sure that no one was put in danger of their lives. ”

"In October, principals and students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will be coming to our school, and the contestant auditions will take place during Halloween. Of course, winning the competition will not only win honor for the school, but you will also receive a prize of 1,000 Galleons personally. ”

Holly shrugged, not the slightest interest in Dumbledore's explanations. The Ministry of Magic's documents were much clearer than the old bees muttered.

"I know you're all eager to win honor for Hogwarts, but ...... For everyone's safety, the participating schools and the Ministry of Magic agreed that in order to limit the abilities of the participants, the participants must be at least seventeen years old, or ......" When Dumbledore said his age, there was a protest, led by the Weasley brothers, of course. "Or, the strength has reached the level of the ninth order. Dumbledore's words came out with a grin, and after saying that, he glanced in the direction of Holly with a slight prank.

After Dumbledore stated the following conditions, there was an uproar in the hall, and the teachers were surprised that there did not seem to be such a clause on the Ministry of Magic documents they had seen earlier, and the students were complaining that Dumbledore's pit was not worth killing people.

For those children who are from traditional magical families, they are well aware of their own strength or the strength of the strongest person in their family, and in a society where strength is respected, the strongest combat power in the family represents the family's status in society. The ninth order, that is a position that most young people cannot reach in a lifetime, even if there are records, there are only a few people who can break through the eighth order to the ninth order in a short period of time after graduating from Hogwarts, and these people, one by one, have left their names in the history of magic. For example, the old bee who is standing on the rostrum at this time and is smiling and watching everyone's jokes, such as the Dark Lord whose name can't be named.

For those students who don't know enough about the division of power, the students from traditional wizarding families in the surrounding area are the source of their information. In this regard, these children from magical families did not hide their secrets, because most of them had not fought against people of the ninth order, and the relatives and friends they usually came into contact with were generally wandering around the seventh order. So the whole hall resounded with such a voice.

"My dad is just at the eighth order, but when I was practicing magic with him, I never held more than five spells under him. ”

"My brother is seventh-order, but I and XX together can't beat him alone. ”

Similar statements abounded throughout the hall.

"Ahem," Dumbledore cleared his throat as he saw the entire hall discussing issues on their own, and continued to explain, "This time the measures are very necessary, because the Triwizarding Tournament is still very difficult and dangerous, even if we have enough protections, unless it is a sixth or seventh year student, we don't think that students in other years can solve these problems on their own." There will be a fair enough referee to ensure that our Hogwarts Warriors are selected. So, if you can't meet the conditions, I don't recommend wasting too much time on this. ”

"Well, when Beauxbatons and Durmstrang students arrive at Hogwarts in October, I'm sure you'll welcome them with your warmth and friendship. Okay, it's getting late, so in order to get you into the classroom in good spirits tomorrow, let's go back to the dormitory and go to bed. Dumbledore quickly put an end to the topic and sat down again to discuss it with Moody.

In the hall, students stood up and moved towards their dormitories. Of course, as the prefect, Holly also had to take on her own responsibilities, escorting the first-year freshmen back to Ravenclaw Tower with the boys.

Unsure of what to do on the main road back to the dormitory from the hall, Holly consciously came behind the first-graders and looked at the group of furry children who were still childish.
