"Super Goblet of Fire!"

Harry held his breath, ready to stand up and cheer as soon as Dumbledore announced, but when Dumbledore finally said the big thing he had been waiting for.

He found that he didn't understand at all.

Harry pulled Ron beside him with a blank expression:

"What is the Goblet of Fire?"

"I don't know—but it seems to be awesome." Ron was also a little confused, because so much time had passed, and even the famous Goblet of Fire only existed in the memories of some people with the passage of time.

Unexpectedly, Fred and George seemed to know, and they hugged their heads in shock and shouted in unison:

"Professor, are you kidding? That's the Top 3 Cup! ”

Dumbledore laughed too.

"I'm not kidding, Mr. Weasley." He said, "But since you mentioned joking, I heard a funny joke about a troll, a dominatrix, and a leprechaun, all of whom went into the same tavern......"

Professor McGonagall cleared her throat loudly.

The comedic effect of this scene was much better than the joke that Dumbledore was about to tell, and the auditorium was filled with the joyous laughter of the young wizard.

Zhang Xiao laughed especially loudly, and he suddenly found that Dumbledore and his grandfather were really similar, both of them had the same humorous and funny personality as an old child.

They don't care about other people's opinions, it's enough to just be themselves, is this the inevitable result of cultivating to a certain level?

"Oh - that's probably not the right thing to say now...... Not quite right......" said Dumbledore, "where did I just go?" Ah, yes, Super Goblet of Fire! ”

Dumbledore opened his hands and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"Triwizard Tournament...... I don't think many of you yet know what the prototype event of the Super Goblet of Fire is all about, so I hope those in the know will forgive me for explaining a little bit here, and I'll allow their minds to wander away for a moment. ”

The little wizards below let out a soft laugh again, and those who knew about the Triwizard Tournament nodded, graciously agreeing to the headmaster's request.

It's just that they didn't desert, but listened more carefully to Dumbledore's speech, and it was they who knew the weight of the Triwizard Cup, and they were shocked and excited by this super cup of fire, which is said to encompass most of the world's regions.

Dumbledore clasped his hands in front of him and said in a loud voice:

"First of all, the prototype event, the Triwizard Tournament, which was a tournament that started more than 700 years ago.

It is a friendly competition between the three largest schools of magic in Europe.

The three schools are: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrand, and are also three very famous schools in Europe.

The rule is that each school chooses one champion, and then the three warriors compete against each other for three magical events, and the school that wins will have the right to keep the Goblet of Fire.

Held every five years, the Triwizard Tournament is hosted by three schools in turn, and it is agreed that it is a great way for young wizards from different countries to forge friendships - but the Triwizard Tournament is interrupted when the death toll is so high. ”

"The death toll?" Hermione whispered, looking around in dismay.

But most of the students in the auditorium weren't as nervous as she was, and many were excited. Harry was also anxious to hear the specifics of the Triwizard Tournament, and he wasn't interested in those who had died more than a hundred years ago.

"Death?" Hermione reacted similarly to Malfoy, his mouth open: "Too many deaths to interrupt?" I thought it would stop with one death. ”

Zhang Xiao smacked her lips, don't you know what kind of virtue a wizard has? There are two deaths for everything, and St. Mungo's has two whole floors for the brave Death Wizards.

Some people get a mask, hat, or the like by chance, and put them on with great interest, regardless of whether there are evil spells or anything in them.

Others found very old books in the store with suspicious experiments, rituals, and so on, and their reaction was, 'This thing seems interesting, I'm going to follow it.'" ’

All in all, the small number of wizards makes sense.

"Over the centuries, people have tried to revive the tournament several times," Dumbledore continued, "but none of them have been successful.

However, our Ministry of Magic believes that the time is ripe for another attempt.

We've done a lot of work this summer to make sure every warrior doesn't put their lives in danger. ”

The voices in the auditorium began to sound louder and louder with the clamor of the little wizards.

Dumbledore also had to raise his voice:

"In addition, we took advantage of the opportunity to host the Quidditch World Cup and successfully held director-level meetings on five continents.

After many discussions and deliberations, the International Federation of Wizards has confirmed that this year, we will hold a Super Tournament that will cover the whole world!

The presidents of the world's most famous magic schools will lead their carefully selected participants, and the ceremony of selecting the warriors will take place on Halloween.

An unbiased referee will decide which students are most qualified to compete in this unprecedented Supergame and earn honor for their school.

And the prize is up to - 10,000 Galleons! ”

"Boom!"

This sentence is like pouring a scoop of water into a hot oil pan, and the whole auditorium is about to explode.

The little wizards jumped down from their positions with a loud shout, raised their hands, and cheered loudly.

Their faces lit up with excitement at the thought of the possibility of attaining such honor and wealth.

Malfoy celebrated fiercely, not at all aware that he had thought that the Goblet of Fire should be stopped.

It was as if he had already been appointed to represent Slytherin as a brave man.

However, it is understandable that Malfoy is not short of 10,000 Galleons, but this opportunity to show himself in front of the world and achieve the highest honor is what he has always longed for!

Zhang Xiao also stood up, and said that he was really determined. It's the little heavenly master!

At the tables of each house, the young wizards watched Dumbledore feverishly, or whispered excitedly to their neighbors.

But Dumbledore spoke again, and the Great Hall fell silent again.

"The participants in the competition were:

Located in France: Beauxbatons School of Magic;

Located in Scandinavia: Durmstrang College;

Located in the United Kingdom: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry;

Located in Russia: Kordos Dorez;

Located in Japan: Magic Office;

Located in Uganda: Wagado Academy of Magic;

Located in Brazil: Castrobusche;

United States: Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry;

and a school that cannot be announced for the time being. ”

Every time Dumbledore said the name of a school, the students became more excited, and many people didn't know that there were so many schools of magic and wizardry in the world.

Zhang Xiao took a breath gently, the school that can't be announced for the time being should be Longhu Mountain, is Longhu Mountain a school?

It doesn't count, because the Daomen did not gather students from all over the region to teach in a specialized school like this, but still used the ancient system of mentoring and apprenticeship.

But Dragon Tiger Mountain does have a function similar to that of Hogwarts, which is to select the right people and teach them.

However, apart from themselves, not many people care about this school whose name cannot be announced for the time being, and they are more eager to know how to become a warrior of the school.

Fred and George stood up and shouted loudly:

"Professor, let's talk about it, we can't wait, how to choose the warriors of each school!"

Dumbledore nodded pleasantly:

"Of course, that's the most important thing.

I know you're all hungry to win Triwizard trophies for Hogwarts.

But after discussions with all the schools and the Ministry of Magic, we decided to make a complete change to the format to accommodate the new tournament.

Many schools insist that they are just a warrior, which is completely incapable of proving the level of the school, and on the contrary, the element of luck is even greater.

Although luck is part of strength, luck really doesn't represent the strength of the school, so-

The Ministry of Magic and the participating academies agreed that they would sign up as a team! ”

Dumbledore raised his voice slightly, for the young wizards were so loud that they were about to tear the roof over!

"Yes, you heard it right, it's going to be a squad! It will take a 5+1 approach!

That is, 5 regular team members, 1 support person, such as making a plan, and acting as a substitute!

And most importantly – all members are in the third year and above! “

The little wizards, who were clenching their fists full of longing and preparing to make a splash, were suddenly stunned, and they became angry, holding their heads, and letting out cries of despair and anger.

Dumbledore's voice suddenly became stern:

"This measure is necessary because the project of the tournament is still very difficult and dangerous, and no matter how many precautions we take, many things are definitely not something that young wizards under the third grade can deal with!

I myself will ensure that no student of sufficient age will deceive our impartial referees into becoming Hogwarts warriors. ”

There was a serious glint in his bright blue eyes: "Therefore, if you are not in the fourth grade, I ask you not to waste time in applying. ”

"Delegations from the various schools will arrive in October and spend most of the school year with us.

I know that you will all be warm and friendly during our foreign dignitaries here, and that you will wholeheartedly support Hogwarts Warriors once they are chosen.

More detailed registration rules will be pasted on the bulletin board!

Well, it's not early, and it's important that you walk into class tomorrow morning feeling refreshed and clear-headed. Go to bed! Come on! ”
