Hermione hadn't been assigned to Gryffindor by the Sorting Hat, and had only slightly piqued Chris's curiosity before tossing it aside.

Although Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is divided into four houses, it is not actually a segregation, and generally speaking, it is still a good relationship between classmates in private.

Besides, Hermione is a girl, and even if she is assigned to Gryffindor, she still lives in the girls' dormitory, so she still has to be.

It doesn't affect the three protagonists at all.

"How is the Sorting Hat sorted?" Chris set his gaze on the pointed hat, more curious about it than Hermione.

It seems that this hat makes the freshman branch look fair, but in fact, this hat is also spiritual, and naturally there is favoritism.

At this time, a first-year student was assigned a sorting hat and became a student of the fourth branch.

"This hat doesn't look like it's a simple spirit, it looks like it has a soul of its own!" Chris thought as he looked at the Sorting Hat.

In fact, there are many kinds of spirituality, and there must be a world of difference between those who have a soul and those who do not.

Soulless spirituality, very ephemeral, and barely in memory, like the Phoenix spell that Chris casts every time.

The phoenix was the one that Chris added to it, but because it was just a spell and no soul existed, the memory of the phoenix would be lost.

And the spirituality of the soul is also very different. Some spirits only have thoughts, not emotions, and are like artificial intelligence, which can only act according to instructions.

Some spirituality has thinking and emotion, and the combination of the two will make the spirituality richer, just like human beings, who know how to weigh the pros and cons, know how to think about the meaning behind the action, and even listen to the meaning of the words.

At this time, this sorting hat is to give Chris a feeling of a real soul, because it is so real.

When students are separated, there are hesitations, turns, and they know how to pull the emotional response of the freshmen, and even can joke with these first-year freshmen in a humorous tone.

All of this gives him a sense of completeness.

"I don't have much knowledge about the soul, and I still have to solve the soul problem in Maddie's style, so I need to study it more!" Chris thought to himself, "At the stage of Fantastic Beasts, the library at Hogwarts was still a little thinner than the current library, and it seems that there have been a lot of magic books over the years." ”

"I'll take the time to take a look, especially Voldemort's soul splitting spell. ”

Chris thought to himself as he watched the Sorting Hat move.

Soul splitting was something he had to obtain, and even if it was the original spell used by Voldemort, Chris was confident that it would shine in his own hands.

Not to mention that Chris also plans to study and study it carefully to further refine this soul splitting technique.

After all, Medivan's situation is much more serious than Voldemort's at the beginning, and Sargeras's soul is symbiotic with Medivan, which has reached the point where memory coexists, which is much more difficult.

It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

There are three schools of magic in Europe, one each in North and South America, and there are also schools of magic in Russia, Japan, and Africa, and there are only a few children with wizarding qualifications.

Therefore, the sorting hat quickly divided these first-year freshmen, and basically the number of people in the four branches was about the same.

After the Sorting House was completed, Dumbledore announced some of the school's rules, and finally the opening party was late.

···

Chris's first Defence Against the Dark Arts class wasn't Harry Potter's first-year students.

It's a seventh-grader who graduated a year later.

After these students graduate, they will enter the wizarding world, and in such a place, without the protection of the school, no one can say what kind of situation they will encounter.

Moreover, some students will choose to become an Auror, and they will face even more dangers.

So the Defence Against the Dark Arts class is definitely a top priority. Other magic can more or less remove the effect, but black magic is known for being weird, and wizards who use black magic are mostly evil wizards, so they don't dare to be careless.

For these seventh-graders, Chris didn't set out to teach in his own way.

Only a blank sheet of paper is good for drawing, and the seventh graders have already developed a magical habit in Defence Against the Dark Arts by the previous professors, and Chris has no way to change it.

And only one year is not enough time to instill his own magical ideas.

As a teacher, Chris did not look serious, but looked at these students with a smile, leaned on the lectern, and said, "It's been six years since I learned Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, and you who should have learned it have basically learned it. ”

"I don't have any special Defence Against the Dark Arts to teach you. ”

Chris's words caught the eyes of all the students in the classroom because it was so unexpected. They thought there was something special about becoming a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor!

"I'm a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, though. So I'm going to teach you something, so what can I teach you?"

"I'll teach you how to guard against and break the dark magic in battle!"

Chris swept his right hand towards the space in front of him, and the self-mirror dimension spread out from his body, and the power of the mirror space spread, replacing the entire classroom space.

Then, a snap of the finger hits.

The space and matter inside the mirror space begin to fold.

At this time, all the students saw that the ground under their desks was spreading, and then the distance between themselves and their desks was getting farther and farther away.

"It's a mirror space, and anything that happens in it doesn't affect the real space, so we can have magical battles in it. ”

"Hone your Defence Against the Dark Arts with magical combat. ”

As Chris speaks, space and matter are still folding, and the area of space is constantly expanding.

At this time, these seventh-year students finally began to look at the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor in front of them, the head of Ravenclaw House.

Many of them know the Traceless Extension Technique, but they can't directly generate space in space, and they still need all matter to carry it, and the space is actually very fragile and can't be used as combat magic.

"What are you still sitting there for? Stand up and take out your wands. ”

Chris clapped his hands, awakening the attention of the students, and with his clapping, the desks in the classroom also folded and buried directly in the ground.

The entire classroom becomes a leveled magical battle square.
