Inside the auditorium.

The long tables are all gone, replaced by a gilded stage.

The auditorium was as black as velvet, and hundreds of candles lit the stage.

Dueling Club.

It's something new that Hogwarts students won't want to miss.

Almost all the students came, and although the fear of the Chamber of Secrets was dispelled by John, they were very intrigued by John's heroic appearance on the stage of the last duel.

When they arrived, they saw Lockhart dressed in fancy clothes, and everyone but Harry was not disappointed.

This is also thanks to the lesson plan that John made for him, which kept Lockhart from falling apart too hard.

At least in the eyes of the public, this is a wizard who does not like practice and likes theory.

The knowledge from the autobiographical book was still taught, and the students were even more convinced that Lockhart was not low.

Harry had seen that he couldn't even deal with elves, and he had taken Harry's bones away, otherwise he wouldn't have resisted so much.

"Ahem, quiet, all quiet."

Lockhart's sassy wizard robe was simply unrepresented, and after signaling everyone to be quiet, his eyes were focused on his body.

He smiled like the five-time winner of Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award.

"That's right, Professor Dumbledore has allowed me to open this little dueling club, to train you in case you need to defend yourself one day, I have used this method countless times to protect myself, this John Wick should know very well, he was taught by me......"

Lockhart began to speak at length to the point that the students were starting to get impatient.

Fortunately, Lockhart was still self-aware, and after saying a long way, he introduced his assistant.

When Snape walked onto the stage, Harry and Ron both swallowed and looked at each other, suspecting that Lockhart was crazy.

"Don't worry, I'll give you back your Potions teacher intact."

Lockhart blinked, unaware that the black air around Snape was about to overflow.

He exaggerated his body language, "Now I would like to ask Professor Snape to say a couple of words." ”

Professor Snape said coldly, "Some of you fools keep roosters in your dormitories, and I hope you'll remember that you're a wizard when you learn to duel." ”

The students in the audience were weak for a while, and someone found out that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk, and after knowing that the basilisk was afraid of the rooster's crow, chicken breeding became popular among the students.

There's no need for an alarm clock this morning, and the rooster crows are a headache.

After a few simple sentences, Professor Snape had turned to face Lockhart.

Harry could tell that Snape's lips were curled up, and that was a red flag.

If Snape had looked at him like this, I'm afraid he would have flopped away.

Lockhart was able to play more than a dozen tricks even with a bow, which made Snape shake his head tirelessly.

The two of them each raised their wands upright to their chests before saluting and walking to the sides of the stage.

"As you can see, we hold our wands in a normal dueling stance."

Lockhart was still chattering, and the impatience in Snape's eyes was already evident.

Lockhart counted.

Both of them jerked their wands over their shoulders at the same time, and when the number reached three, Snape struck immediately.

"Except for your weapons! （Expelliarmus）”

A dazzling red light struck Lockhart across the stage, but Lockhart didn't fly out as Harry had guessed.

The armor-like iron armor spell blocked the attack, and Lockhart didn't react yet.

There was surprise and surprise in Professor Snape's eyes.

"See, it's a wonderful offense and defense."

Lockhart reacted, and immediately appeared to be light, and then activated the Ring of Spells, and red light flew from his wand to Snape.

Professor Snape reacted quickly, immediately picking up the red light and fighting back.

The two of you go back and forth, and Lockhart is always there to keep Snape's spell at bay.

The students exclaimed, and the girls adored Lockhart with starry eyes in their eyes.

As it went back and forth, Professor Snape was a little serious.

"Levicorpus"

The Iron Charm reappeared to block it, and Lockhart got carried away, not noticing that he had run out of talismans.

He countered a petrification charm, and Snape flew and charged the disarming charm to knock Lockhart into the air.

The wand flew out of his hand, and Lockhart noticed that he had run out of amulets.

He hurriedly stopped Snape from taking the next step, stood up and laughed, "See, this is the Disarming Charm, I lost my wand, I think I should show you." ”

Lockhart acted as if he had been hit on purpose.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and they felt that there was something in Lockhart's words.

"Of course, if I want to stop it, I can do it without much effort, just to increase your knowledge......"

Noticing that Professor Snape's face was gloomy, Lockhart hurriedly stopped, "That's the end of the demonstration, now I'll come among you, and the two of you will duel in a team." ”

The students had long been tickled by the wonderful duel just now, and they couldn't wait to hear that they could start the duel.

Snape came up to dispel Harry's desire to train with Ron, and he looked around to find a match for Harry.

After a closer look, his gaze skimmed over John, after all, this man was too dangerous.

Finally, locked on Malfoy, he beckoned Malfoy to have an in-depth exchange with the Savior.

John still wanted to find an opponent, but everyone subconsciously avoided him when they saw him.

I still remember the scene when a person picked Slytherin, and they didn't want to be abused.

"Can I join you?"

A handsome big boy came over, and John, seeing that he was not hiding from himself, readily agreed.

"My name is Cedric Diggory, Hufflepuff 4th grade."

Cedric's eyes lit up, and he stared at John, following the example of Snape.

"John, can I call you that?"

"Of course, Cedric."

The big boy from Hufflepuff was outstanding, and John's right hand stroked the badge and bowed slightly, and he smiled, "Let's get started." ”

Cedric's smile narrowed, and he cast a skillful disarming charm, and John raised an eyebrow, using his wand to fly red light and fight back.

He found that Cedric was strong, at least stronger than the Slytherin he had last encountered.

The wand in his hand was waved, and all the attacks were cracked by John one by one.

Finding an opportunity, John made a three-in-a-row rod.

"Langlock"

"Ferula"

"Relashio"

As soon as Cedric was about to recite the incantation, his tongue stuck to the roof of his jaw and he couldn't speak, and the wizard's robe suddenly tightened and his body was tightly wrapped and unable to move, and sparks flew to hit his body and fly out upside down.

He lay on the ground with a wry smile on his face.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Unable to speak, he pointed to his mouth.

John stepped forward to lift the spell and pulled him up.

"It's too strong, John, you don't look like a student."

Cedric could afford to lose, he showed admiration and asked curiously, "You want to be an Auror in the future?" ”

John shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "Perhaps, but the Aurors aren't a good fit for me." ”

The two of them ended the battle and looked back, and there was no serious duel in the entire auditorium except for them.

Hermione messed with a fat girl in Slytherin, her wand tossed aside, completely forgetting that she was a wizard.

Lockhart realized that the situation was out of control and shouted for a halt.

It was Professor Snape who prevented what was going on.

However, someone was still injured, and in the end, Lockhart chose to have two people come up and demonstrate.

He wanted to call Neville, but he remembered that Neville was chasing after him with that sword, and he held back again.

Snape took the opportunity to get Malfoy and Harry up.

It's okay now, the one who fought the most fiercely just now went up.

As soon as the two went up, the enemies were very red-eyed, and Malfoy gritted his back molars to avenge the hatred of being hung upside down just now.

Lockhart's countdown ended, and Malfoy cast one of his best spells.

"Oolong out of the hole!"

The head of his wand exploded, and a long black snake leapt out of the smoke and landed on the floor between the two.

The crowd screamed, and Snape saw enough of the joke and lazily said, "Don't move, Potter, I'll get it away." ”

However, Lockhart felt that he could do it again, and rushed out and waved his wand, and the black snake flew up and fell down, even more angry.

Justin Finchrie, who was next to the stage, froze, and the Black Snake walked towards him.

Harry only wanted to stop the black snake, and he opened his mouth to speak to the black snake, but it was in a chilling tone.

"Let him go."

He was trying to stop the black snake, completely oblivious to the fact that the sound he was making was a parseltongue.

Everyone even thought that Harry had the Black Snake attack Justin Finchrie.

Just then, another voice rang out.

"Stop."

The black snake was about to feel relaxed, when suddenly a pressure came over him.

It looked at it, and a pair of vertical pupils made the black snake go limp.

When Justin saw the figure, he immediately felt a sense of security.

He yelled angrily at Harry, "What do you think you're playing, we have John Wick!" ”

Harry was confused and didn't know what was wrong.

John drew his wand and turned the snake into black smoke, and he looked up at Harry, the depth in his eyes that scared Harry.

"Today's dueling club is over, let's disperse." John gave Lockhart a look, and Lockhart knew that it was over.

It's just that there are more storms in the follow-up this time.
