Chapter 24 College Cup Selection

Dangdangdang......

Professor McGonagall tapped the rim of the goblet with a spoon, and a special magic mixed with the sound waves, focusing the attention of the boisterous students in the hall to the podium.

Mu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, mobilized his mental power to close his brain, blocked this sound wave that was not malicious outside his ears, and turned his head to look at the podium.

Occlumency is a very useful magic, and Mu Yan has expanded it to several applications after several developments, including the method he uses to seal the mind around the imprint of "life".

It's a sealing technique that divides the mind into several areas, and it can seal all the memories, abilities, and even perceptions of that area.

Of course, if you want to break through, it will be very simple, with Mu Yan's understanding of this magic, even if he forcibly breaks through from the outside, it will not be too difficult, but he obviously will not do it in a short time, and the purpose of his sealing technique is to prevent him from losing his life due to some inadvertent actions.

In fact, not only the brain occlusion, but also the magic for the brain and soul are all aspects that Mu Yan is interested in, most of this kind of magic has high requirements for mental power, so there are very few people who practice it, and there are not many records left, such as "memory modification", "amnesia spell", etc., and even one of the notorious unforgivable spells "Dementor Spell", even if the books about these memory magic are the most abundant Hogwarts, I can only find five or six copies in the entire library.

In fact, judging from the secrecy of the wizarding world to the Muggle world, even if there are few classics in this area, it will not be so few, after all, it is necessary to modify the memories of Muggles frequently, and many magic such as memory modification should be used, but only a few copies can be found by him.

The answer to this question was only later in a discussion with Professor Flitvier about spells, and it turned out that the spells in this area were strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic, and every wizard who studied this aspect of magic had to make a contract, so even if other wizards knew about these spells, they could not teach them to others at will.

However, this is obviously not difficult for Mu Yan, Hogwarts is the wizarding academy with the richest collection of books in England and the best students, and some of the notes and books left by students every year will be collected in the library, as long as you can endure loneliness, you can always find some surprises there!

"Another year has passed......"

By the end of the dinner party, Dumbledore was already standing in front of the podium, an owl with feathers carved from an unknown golden metal slowly spreading its wings, protecting the candle and the lectern in the middle, his voice a little old, but gentle.

The candle slowly spins in the air.

“…… I know you're tired of hearing the professor's chatter all day, and now you're wondering why this bad old man hasn't sat down and let you enjoy your dinner......

The students in the hall laughed heartily, both in terms of identity and personality, Dumbledore was a teacher who was loved by most of the students, and even if a small number of students disdained his approach, they would still be impressed by his great strength.

In a sense, Dumbledore, who is wise, erudite, and approachable, is flawless, and if he has to say that he has, it may be his age!

Dumbledore's hands were pressed in the air, his snow-white beard hung down on the lectern, and everyone fell silent.

"But now we have more important things to do!" He looked at the crowd with a kind smile on his face, "If I'm not mistaken, it's time for us to present the Academy Championship Cup!" ”

There were few cheers, and in the past this was the most anticipated moment of the semester for the students, but now, Dumbledore did not see a glimmer of joy in the eyes of the students who were not interested.

But not all students are like this, Slytherin students have most of their eyes full of chagrin and shame, Gryffindor students have full of regret and sadness, and Hufflepuff is full of indifference, anyway, no matter who wins the championship, they are the least likely, only Ravenclaw students...... There is excitement and happiness in the eyes, and of course, more of a look is taken for granted......

yes, rightfully so...... Seeing their expressions, Dumbledore felt that his state of mind that he had maintained for many years of self-cultivation was almost a little unbearable, and he was 360 points ahead of the second place! Why shouldn't they take it for granted? That's enough to run another academy!

He glanced at Mu Yan, who was sitting in the front row, with a faint smile, and found that he was listening carefully to his speech with a faint smile on his face, and there was no excessive happiness in his eyes, whether there was anyone else as a matter of course, as if he was listening to something that had nothing to do with him.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that he Mu Yan is the real leader of this matter! This kind of academic bully, who can force the professors to modify the rules for bonus points several times for him just by studying, is already a legend even in Hogwarts, where strange things are frequent......

"It's another child who doesn't make people worry......" Dumbledore sighed secretly in his heart, Mu Yan's calm and calm temperament made him involuntarily think of a certain student many years ago, that student also came out of the orphanage, and also showed extraordinary intelligence and calmness at a young age, once the pearl of Hogwarts, but now......

Alas-

Dumbledore sighed, suddenly wondering if he was really old, he had sighed far more times this year than he had last year, and of course, half of them were when the professors applied to change the bonus rules......

"The scores for each college are as follows......"

No matter what the students thought, the annual House Cup selection was a Hogwarts tradition, and Dumbledore would not blatantly violate the school's tradition because of his own small thoughts, and he continued to read quietly.

"Fourth place...... Gryffindor, score 332. ”

There was a sigh of sighing from the third table, although there was no hope of winning the first place, but they were still extremely disappointed to get the bottom score of the whole school.

The three of Harry looked at each other, and they knew that some of their reckless behavior this semester had deducted a lot of points for Gryffindor, and these deductions were the thickest iron chain that tied Gryffindor to last place!

"Third place, Hufflepuff, 340 points!"

There was a cheer at the Hufflepuff table, in fact, they were cheering when Dumbledore announced the fourth place just now, after all, they were finally not the last in ten thousand years......

However, looking at the gloomy faces of the Gryffindors, they still didn't dare to scream, you know, Gryffindor and Slytherin's fighting ability is famous throughout Hogwarts!

"Second place, Slytherin, 476 points!"

There was no cheering, the atmosphere at the Slytherin table was terrifyingly silent, before that, their seven-year history of winning the House Cup was finally ended in this school year, and they were directly run over by others with such a terrifying gap, they couldn't even raise the courage to resist!

From now on, they will probably be considered the worst Slytherin class at Hogwarts!

All this is due to one man! Their hateful gaze was focused on the thin figure at the front of Ravenclaw......

There was no consciousness at all to be pointed out by Qianfu, Mu Yan still looked at the podium with a smile that had not changed from the beginning, but his eyes were already a little wandering, and his thoughts had long since drifted away.

1st place, 786 points...... Ravenclaw College! ”

The cheers suddenly resounded throughout the hall, and the entire Ravenclaw table was littered with wizard hats tossed into the air by the excited little wizards, and the table was hammered with a bang, shaking the Slytherin's face to turn blue and white.

Snape snorted coldly, Flitwick, who was happily humming a little song next to him just now, and clinked glasses with him proudly, looking at the triumphant old face, he really wanted to give him a shrinking charm to make him shorter.

"Very good, Ravenclaw...... Very good performance......."

Dumbledore raised his hand to stop the students' perfunctory applause.

"However, a couple of things have happened recently...... It must also be taken into account. "Finally, I'll add a few more points!" ”

All eyes were on him, waiting for his next step.

"First of all, Hermione? Miss Grant! He looked at the Gryffindor table.

"When others are in trouble, calmly use wisdom to help others escape...... Plus 70 points"

The Gryffindor table was bustling with activity, and everyone was applauding Hermione.

The smile on Hermione's face couldn't be stopped, and a pair of eyes had already smiled into a pair of crooked crescents.

"Secondly, Ron? Mr. Weasley! ”

"The best chess player, no one at Hogwarts has been able to compare with him for a hundred years, plus 70 points!"

There was another round of cheers and applause, and the face of Slytherin, who had already faintly sensed something bad at the first table, became more and more ugly.

"And then, Harry? Mr. Potter! ”

"Brave and courageous, I'm going to give Gryffindor again...... Add 100 points! ”

Harry was overwhelmed by the tidal cheers, his battle with the Mystic Man had been adapted into countless versions circulating around Hogwarts, and now no one knew who the brave boy who stopped the Mysterio's plot was.

Of course, these various versions of the Philosopher's Stone battle were passed on by Mu Yan, and he was also trying to reduce his plot offset by increasing Harry's prestige.

On the Slytherin table, the faces of the crowd had turned from blue to white, and they had completely lost their blood!

The worst of the worst ended was to have a third place in Slytherin, and from today onwards, they were truly the worst Slytherin!

"Then I declare that this year's Academy Cup winner is ......"

Dumbledore paused to look at the group.

"Ravenclaw!"

With the exception of Slytherin, the other three houses cheered vigorously, and patches of wizard hats were tossed into the air.

Brush Brush Brush ......

The college flag hanging from the ceiling instantly changed from a green snake flag to a blue eagle flag!
