Chapter 331: Beauxbatons and Durmstrang

"Yes, Headmaster, this technique is called Spell Counter, when both sides have the same spell or restrain each other, one side casts a spell and the other uses a spell to counter, which can neutralize or weaken the opponent's spell. Theoretically, this technique can counter any point-to-point cast, but has limited effect on area-based spells. To achieve spell counter, there need to be four main points, the first is to be familiar with the spell, when the opponent pronounces the first spell syllable, the counterperson must immediately identify the spell, and start countering the spell as soon as possible, which requires a high degree of mental concentration and a certain amount of spell knowledge. The second is to capture the opponent's spell fluctuations, the general light has no spell fluctuations, but all spells have their own unique spell fluctuations, after being familiar enough with spells, you can capture the opponent's position and timing, and the third is the speed and accuracy of the shot, which can be trained by a large number of spells. Finally, the strength of the mana, the mana of the counter-actor cannot be too different from that of the caster. If you can do these four things, you have a good chance of countering the opponent's spells. ”

Chen Ping clearly said the spell technique of spell countermeasures. This technique is easy to say, but it is not a one-day task, and it is too targeted to be suitable for only a few spells. But against Arvada Cardeiro, a spell that has been thoroughly studied but is difficult to crack, Chen Ping really provides a truly feasible way.

"Very good," Albus asked a few more questions, and said with satisfaction, "Add 50 points to Ravenclaw, and besides, because of your contribution, we can give you some rewards, and if you have any requirements, you can ask for them." ”

"I don't have any requests, I just want to see more sorcery literature, especially information on the principles of spell development, and in return, I will be involved in the use of spell counter techniques for some spell counter-attacks." Chen Pingdao.

Chen Ping's request was in line with the image he showed at this time, a fanatical seeker of knowledge, the upper echelons of Hogwarts also accepted this condition, so just one month after entering the school, Hogwarts' thousand-year-old collection of magical knowledge was opened to Chen Ping.

There are some things that cannot be hidden, and the reputation of the Ravenclaw genius, the wizard Zhang Liang from China, has spread rapidly among the academy, and the more than 100 points he has brought to Ravenclaw alone is enough to support his position as the leading figure among the fourth year Ravenclaw students.

Compared with his reputation among the teachers and students of the academy, Chen Ping, as the person concerned, seems to be extremely low-key, or in other words, in a state of semi-disappearing, except for attending daily classes in a regular manner, he spends almost the rest of his time in the library.

Perhaps because of some indication, Professor Modi stepped up his Defence Against the Dark Arts teaching, and he began to cast the Implius Charm on each student, making them perform extremely comical movements.

Thomas jumped three times on one foot around the house and sang the national anthem, Levendon. Brown imitated a sparrow, and Neville performed a surprising gymnastics that, in his normal life, he was clearly not able to do. Not all of them were able to resist the spell, and each of them only returned to normal when Modi lifted the spell.

Only Harry showed some magical resistance, and after Modi gave the order for him to jump on the table, he stumbled towards the table, knocking it over and injuring his leg.

"Very good, he almost made it." Modi was delighted.

"So, the last one, Zhang Liang."

With Harry's precedent, all eyes were on the latest celebrant to see what he could do against spells.

However, today's classmate Chen Ping doesn't seem to be in a good state, standing opposite Modi, his eyes are glazed, as if he is sleepwalking.

"Imprius" Modi recited the incantation, and saw Chen Ping's body shake, obviously hit by the incantation.

"Let's do a handstand first." Modi grinned and waved his wand.

Chen Ping stood there, motionless.

"Oh, resisting? So, take two steps forward. Modi was surprised.

Chen Ping still didn't move.

"Raise your hand"

Chen Ping remained still.

"How did you do it, why did the Implius curse not work for you." Modi finally got it.

Chen Ping showed a very embarrassed smile and said, "My situation is a little special, all hints, control spells, are ineffective for me. ”

Where can Modi understand that the spiritual strength of this guy in front of him is dozens of times that of ordinary people, even if he doesn't use any resistance skills, if he wants to shake his spirit, he must increase his spell strength dozens of times to be possible. How could the spells he used to deal with ordinary wizard apprentices have an effect on Chen Ping.

"Looks like we don't have to worry about your Implius curse." After another attempt, Modi was devastated to announce that the Implius curse was ineffective for Zhang Liang.

After class that day, Chen Ping followed the trend of the students, and when he walked to the hall, he saw a large group of students, all of whom were surrounding a large sign erected under a marble staircase, blocking the road.

"Hey, Zhang Liang, can you see it, what's written on it?" A pair of small hands grabbed Chen Ping's velvet robe, a somewhat familiar voice.

"Luna?" Chen Ping smiled slightly, he was so busy that he didn't put much effort into experiencing this rare campus life, but this little girl was very close to him, and would bring him some candy and snacks from time to time. From time to time, he would also instruct the little girl on how to use her powers.

"It's very simple, you try to focus, try to lock on to the student in the front row, thinking about seeing what he sees, yes, that's it."

"The teams from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will arrive at six o'clock on Friday, October 30th, and classes will end half an hour early, and I really saw it." Luna was pleasantly surprised.

"Well, I knew you could do it, but this technique will drain the mind, and if you feel a little dizzy, you have to sleep to recover." Chen Ping approvingly.

In the days that followed, the atmosphere in the house began to come alive, and the hall was decorated overnight, with huge silk panels hanging down from the walls, each representing one of Hogwarts houses, with a red panel painted with a golden lion on Greenington, a blue panel with a bronze eagle and a Ravenclaw, a yellow panel with a black badger and a Hufflepuff, a green panel with a silver serpent and a Slindrin with a silver serpent, and the back of the staff's desk, one of the largest, with the logos of the Hogwarts school team: lions, eagles, badgers and snakes, all wrapped around a large " Hogwarts." Everywhere you went, you seemed to hear only one topic, the Magical Three-on-One Match, and rumors were circulating among the students like contagious germs: who was going to compete for the title of Hogwarts, what was involved, and how the students of the other two houses were different from them.

Chen Ping didn't care much about these things, he still went back and forth between the classroom and the library all day long, and he couldn't even be found in the dormitory. So in addition to his "Ravenclaw genius", he also had the nickname of "learning maniac". Gradually he was juxtaposed with Hufflepuff prefects Cedric Godley, Harry Potter, Hermione Glanzo, Eddie Camitchell and several other outstanding students.

The legendary day finally came, and Chen Ping left the library very helplessly, and stood in front of the castle gate with all the students, welcoming the representatives of the other two colleges.

This was the second time that Chen Ping had seen almost all the students at Hogwarts, and he noticed that several of them already exuded a rather powerful magical aura, those who should be seventh year students, especially one of the teenagers with a resolute face, his magic power was almost the most powerful presence among the students present. Chen Ping glanced at the mark on the student's robe, it was a badger.

"I hope they can come soon, this kind of waiting is just stupid." While spitting badly, Chen Ping looked into the distance.

He heard Harry's trio discussing how each other had arrived, Hermione and Ron arguing quietly, and Harry still a little absent-minded. It was a cold night, and some of the students who were less dressed were already shivering. Chen Ping even suspected that if he waited another hour and a half, half of the students here would need to go to Madam Pomfrey's.

---EndureElements is a spell that allows the recipient to adapt to an environment of –50 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit without taking damage.

This is one of the results of his research these days, using a wand to cast some basic Torrell world spells, which can effectively reduce the loss of spells and increase the cast speed to a certain extent.

A red and blue bolt of light erupted from his wand, spreading rapidly, enveloping all the students. It's like an invisible barrier that drives the cold out of the body.

"Ravenclaw plus 10 points, Hogwarts students, have you forgotten the difficult path you went through when you first entered the school, you are wizards, not Muggles, I don't want you to learn enough witchcraft and not even use spells to protect against the cold." Dumbledore said in a loud voice.

"This nasty guy." Ron cursed in a low voice, he had always disliked Chen Ping.

"Because he's so much better than you." Hermione gave him a blank look.
