"Neville! Don't be in a daze! Professor Graves tells you to stand up and introduce himself to him! Professor: He wants to get to know you! ”

Upon hearing Neville Longbottom's name, the Gryffindor wizards sitting around him all looked back at him with expressions of disbelief and surprise.

But soon Hermione noticed that Neville was in a daze again, and didn't respond to Professor Graves. So she gently nudged it with her hand and reminded.

At this time, Hermione felt that she was so difficult, she originally wanted to show herself in front of her idol, but she didn't expect to ask a stupid question, and then her own college didn't get good grades, and her classmates... Without further ado, Hermione's heart pounded.

"Ah, Gray... Professor Graves, my name is Neville Longbottom, and this is my pet Lybar...... It was a toad, which was given to me by my uncle. Forehead... No ......."

Seeing the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor looking at him with an amiable expression, Neville felt that his grandmother was standing in front of him, shook his head to sober himself up, and then stood up and introduced himself to Rick as Neville Longbottom, and then very naturally took out the width of his robe and introduced his name to Rick, who had a smile like a grandmother.

"Nice to meet you and your pet, Mr. Longbottom, and I hope you enjoy my Defence Against the Dark Arts class. Have a seat. ”

Looking at Neville's natural appearance, Rick couldn't help but think of the first time he met Cord, when there was not much difference between Cord and Neville, who was dumbfounded and often made mistakes and was criticized by the professors of various subjects.

"Alright, everyone, be quiet, I'll now begin to announce the ninth ......."

After making the noisy classroom quiet again, Rick began to announce the names of ninth to first place, the same process as Neville, and Rick made him stand up so he could remember.

Harry and Ron of the famous Iron Triangle II, Rick doesn't get special treatment because they're the main characters.

The duo did not finish in the top 10, but they were also in the top 20.

Rick is still very satisfied, the two of them are pure Gryffindors, and they can't just be judged by theoretical knowledge, they also need to be practiced.

"Fourth, Draco Malfoy. Mr. Malfoy, you are excellent. Slytherin House gets 10 points for you. ”

"Thanks, Professor Graves, I'll keep trying."

Frightened by Rick, Malfoy didn't have the heart to show off to Harry, and after standing up and thanking Rick, he did it again, without showing an expression of wanting to know who the top three were.

This made Rick a little disappointed, he didn't expect Malfoy's mental quality to be so poor, and secretly sighed that if Malfoy didn't make changes, it would be difficult for him to become a great talent in the future.

"Third place..."

"Second place..."

......

Before the exam, Hermione was very confident that she would get first place, but now as Rick read out the names, she was very flustered by the uneasiness. I silently thought in my heart, please, the first place must be me......

"I really didn't expect that the students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry would be able to complete all the questions on the exam paper perfectly without studying our Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry textbooks. Looking back on my student career, I have never achieved an O...... in any of my classes"

Looking at the score of 100 points for first place on the report card, Rick couldn't help but sigh.

There are geniuses that make people jealous.

"Hermione Granger, congratulations on being number one on this test, plus you answered all the questions correctly and flawlessly. You earn twenty points for Gryffindor House. Ms. Granger, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you do in the future, don't let me down. ”

Looking at Hermione, who was flushed and helpless at this time, Rick slapped his palm in encouragement.

"Thank you, thank you, Professor Graves, I... I... I will continue to work hard! But... Actually..."

Hermione was about to say something, but Rick motioned for her to sit down.

Actually, Hermione just wanted to say that she had just read Rick's Magic of Chadwick: One that Rick recommended to them in advance, so she could get it all right... Unfortunately, in the end, she didn't have the courage to say it.

"Hermione, you're amazing, because you finished first, and our Gryffindor House finally got more points than Ravenclaw and Slytherin in this class. Haha~"

Seeing that Rick didn't stop their Gryffindor students from cheering, Ron said happily to Hermione.

The sadness of not being able to see on his face for a long time because he was not on the top ten list, had no chance to receive a special reward, and could not change his wand.

In his mind, winning the hated Slytherin was ten thousand times happier than getting a new wand.

At this time, Harry was also very happy, not only because Gryffindor had received higher house scores than Slytherin, but also because Professor Graves did not say anything about his grades.

'It's a nuisance that Malfoy's guy was able to finish fourth. He must have plagiarized! ’

Harry glanced blankly at Malfoy on the Slytherin side, a little jealous.

......

"You guys are very good, I was very worried about you before I came to this room, after all, the professor who taught your Defence Against the Dark Arts class in your first year was a Death Eater.

But when I took this report card and saw your results, all my worries and worries disappeared. ”

Tap the table again to silence the classroom. Rick said heartily.

"You guys are really good, but the exam just now is just to check the theoretical knowledge you have learned.

The Defence Against the Dark Arts course is not just a course to learn from books, it requires a lot of practical lessons. Because when dealing with dark creatures or evil wizards, you don't read textbook answers to them.

You'll need to raise your wand and fight it back effectively. ”

After listening to Rick's speech, most of the young wizards' eyes lit up, and some even wondered if Professor Graves would suddenly take out a few elves and put them in the classroom, and let them catch them with their wands...

"The kind of dark creature that takes you out of the classroom and allows you to understand, resist and deal with them, although it allows you to look at them directly and not be afraid, does not allow you to really grow.

True growth requires you to overcome the fears of dark creatures and evil wizards in your true environment, and to overcome them. ”

Regardless of whether the little wizards understood his words or not, Rick reopened his briefcase and pulled one black nightcap after another out of it. The number is just the same as the number of people in the classroom.

Seeing Rick suddenly take out so many hats, all the students present showed puzzled expressions. Didn't understand what Professor Graves would do next.

"Wow!"

"What does the professor want to do with all those hats?"

"Isn't that what he said he was talking about, isn't it?"

"Stupid! Is that!!! ”

Looking at the black nightcap in front of Rick, the young wizards began to whisper to each other about what Professor Graves would do next.
