The Periodic Table of Words and Spirits at Hogwarts Chapter 78

"Now, start practicing!"

Dumbledore handed Lockhart the wine glass in his hand, and then spoke to the students in a loud voice.

"Everyone uses the academy as the camp, but remember, friendship comes first, competition comes second"!

"Then the game begins"!

Following Dumbledore's order, the huge platform was split in half from the middle in an instant, and a new guardrail was raised between the two sub-platforms.

"Then the academies enter!"

The first group, Gryffindor vs. Slytherin, Ravenclaw vs. Hufflepuff.

Ravenclaw was played by a third-year girl named Penello, who was in the same grade as Zhang Qiu. The two were best friends. After Cedric's accident, Penello did a lot to appease Zhang Qi's cousin. contribute.

Hufflepuff was played by fifth-grade prefect Truman, a strong but friendly boy who had a good relationship with Cedric.

"The duel begins"!

As the two stood together in the ring, Lockhart shouted excitedly in his proud voice.

"Except your weapons"!

"Stunned"!

The two used a restrictive spell at the same time, and a red light and a yellow light suddenly collided.

A few drops of the plasmlike shiny liquid splashed on the ground after the spell hit, leaving a scorched black mark on the sand.

Both of them were just probing, not real, so naturally they couldn't be as spectacular as Lockhart and Snape.

Of course, even if the two students tried their best to release the spell, it wouldn't be so spectacular.

However, everyone present didn't understand that Lockhart's brilliance was like a flash in the pan in that night—exchanging his own life for people's admiration, but it was only a momentary admiration.

Because Epiphyllum is always unwilling to accept the fate of its own withering quietly, but tries its best to keep its beauty forever, so their best ending is to rot delicately on the rattan, giving people a disgusting beauty.

Lockhart's time was running out.

"Quickly imprisoned"!

With a light drink from Penello, a sturdy rope flew out from the tip of the wand in her hand, tying Truman and the railing of the dueling platform firmly together.

"Ah, beautiful confinement spell! Although it's still a little worse than me, it's okay, it's already great."

Lockhart shouted happily.

"Then I declare that Ravenclaw wins this game"!

Dumbledore waved his wand gently, and the chains wrapped around Truman's body immediately scattered on the ground, and then Hufflepuff's little badgers swarmed up and helped Truman down.

"Then maybe we should have the second game, now it's Gryffindor vs Slytherin time"!

Lockhart shouted loudly.

"Then now, ask Gryffindor and Slytherin to elect their own academy representatives"!

At this time, Zhang Qi, who was dragging his roommate and sneaking over to the stairs, felt regret in his heart.

"It's broken, if I knew it earlier, I would have acted faster!"

Sure enough, the excited Draco came over immediately and put his hand on Zhang Qi's shoulder.

"Come on Hilbert, you are the number one recognized by our Slytherin Academy, you are absolutely worthy of it"!

The Slytherin students present also gathered around.

"Yeah, only you can guarantee that Slytherin's honor will not be ruined on the duel stage, so hurry up, we believe you can definitely do it!"

Several freshmen nodded when they heard this.

"Then, I will be disrespectful"...

Zhang Qi's tone was smiling, but he kept scolding himself in his heart.

"Damn it, why didn't I go any faster?"

Zhang Qi cursed to himself in his heart.

However, it had to be done at this point.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qi put a smile on his face, and then walked towards the duel stage as if nothing had happened.

"Okay, the representative of Slytherin is Mr. Hilbert, so who will Gryffindor send?"

An abnormal flush appeared on Gilderoy Lockhart's face.

That's the color that shows up when you're extremely excited.

"My God, they actually let Hilbert play, this is cheating"!

Ron, who was in the Gryffindor crowd, shouted in disbelief.

"However, this is indeed in accordance with the rules. Hilbert is a member of Slytherin. It is indeed in accordance with the rules to let him play."

Hermione said with some lament.

"He is indeed a member of Slytherin, so we can only choose a member of Gryffindor"...

A member of Gryffindor?

It seemed that some idea popped out of Hermione's exclusive genius mind, which immediately gave her a sense of relief.

A member of Gryffindor! I see!

"I have something to ask Professor McGonagall, you two wait here first, please help me read the book"!

After speaking, Hermione threw the spell book she was still reading in Harry's arms, and then ran in the direction of Professor McGonagall.

"She's always so weird, isn't she?"

Ron said to Harry helplessly.

"really".

Harry nodded in agreement.

Zhang Qi had to go to the duel stage under the attention of all the people~www.mtlnovel.com~ and smiled helplessly at the audience below.

There is no way, he actually doesn't want to come up!

"By the way, who is Gryffindor going to send over to die? Percy or the twins"?

Zhang Qi kept guessing in his heart.

Until a person was slowly walking towards here from a distance.

Zhang Qi raised his head, saw his opponent's face, and was stunned.

"Professor McGonagall"?

Zhang Qi said in surprise.

"It turns out that professors can still duel with students"?

Zhang Qi asked with a little doubt.

"Tonight's competition is a contest between academies, so as long as you are a member of the academy, you can naturally participate."

Professor McGonagall said expressionlessly, then raised his wand.

"Can we start now? Hilbert classmate"?

"Ah, of course, Professor McGonagall."

After a brief surprise, Zhang Qi also raised his wand.

"Oh, what did I see? Professor McGonagall actually played in person. It seems that the Gryffindor classmates have realized the seriousness of the problem"!

Lockhart shouted from the podium!

"The showdown between the most powerful professor and the most powerful student! I think this must be the most exciting performance"!

"Then you two, are you ready?"

"Of course"!

Professor McGonagall exclaimed.

"What about classmate Hilbert? Are you ready to compete with the professor?"

Lockhart shouted happily.

"Of course"!

Zhang Qi said with a smile.
