The branch was well organized, and soon the new students had their seats and were welcomed by the seniors.Of course, the Slytherin side seemed to have a clear idea of who would enter the Sorting House, and it was just a reunion after the holidays.Dumbledore stood up and said a few words, and then let the house-elf start serving, and while the students were eating, he also concentrated on the potato soup in front of him, without even looking at Su Ming.Snape clearly didn't have much appetite, he just scraped the broccoli puree on his plate with bread, ate a few bites, and leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms, staring at Professor Slade beside him.His hair was so oily that it glistened in the candlelight, and it looked like a whole piece of a black steel helmet.If ordinary people were stared at by Snape's eerie eyes, they probably wouldn't be able to eat anything, but Su Ming was not an ordinary person, not only did he eat happily with chicken legs in his hands, but he also took out a bottle of wine from his waist bag and shared it with Professor Flitwick on the other side.The diminutive Charms professor was asking him about Hermione, and Flitwick seemed to know something from old Deng, perhaps the content of the deal, and knew that Hermione was Professor Wilson's favored apprentice.Before the establishment of Hogwarts, the inheritance of wizards was similar to that of craftsmen, with a master leading several apprentices to practice and teach.Later, even in the Hogwarts era, some old-school professors still liked to select gifted children from among their students and teach them privately as if they were their own disciples.This kind of behavior is not only not prohibited, but even encouraged, and a professor who does not give students a small stove is often regarded as a person who is incompetent, because he is hollowed out in the classroom.Of course, this kind of private relationship is more traditional and intimate, and the apprentices often become very similar to the master under the influence of the perennial ear and eye."
She's a genius without a doubt."
Su Ming threw the finished chicken thigh bones on the plate, lifted the napkin and wiped his mouth: "Even if she doesn't enroll in Hogwarts, I will take her back to the United States to teach her personally." ”Professor Flitwick's special chair had longer legs than the others, but he was still a head shorter than Su Ming, a very gentle man, and he seemed to be in a good mood at this time.Maybe it's because Ravenclaw has hired five people this year?
Five of the more than 80 freshmen were selected, a quarter increase from previous years, a historic leap.It's a pity that he didn't know that a student would disappear from the world in a few days."
To be able to enter Ravenclaw, there is no doubt about the talent."
The dwarf mage nodded with a smile, and then toasted to Su Ming: "But compared to the ability to cast spells, I value the way and method of thinking of the students more, I will teach her well, if you have any subjects that you are good at, we can stagger each other in terms of teaching." ”"The principal doesn't seem to have told you that the subject I'm in charge of is physical education, so I won't give much advice on spells."
Su Ming still knew how many catties and taels he had, and Professor Flitwick's spells were obviously more and more comprehensive.The word physical education still confused the old professor, he had heard Dumbledore say it, but he still didn't understand what kind of course it was.Maybe it's peculiar to the American wizarding world?"
It's a Muggle course that teaches students to exercise their physical fitness."
At this point, Snape interjected, he had great respect for Flitwick, and simply answered.Flitwick smiled and nodded at Snape, "I see?"
Physical fitness is also really a very important aspect, just as trolls can resist 'fainting to the ground' with their bodies and humans can't, I've always felt that there is some kind of connection between physical fitness and magic resistance, but I can't prove it. ”"You're right."
Dean Slytherin turned his head away and said no more.Su Ming wiped his hands with a napkin, drank intently, and said to Flitwick: "Casting spells through a wand also requires strength and skill, and the amplitude of the wrist shaking and the spell can be used to release the spell perfectly.And if you have enough physical strength, you can ensure that the hundredth magic you release in one day is as standardized as the first magic, and there is no error. ”"Oh, I see, it's a great subject."
Flitwick suddenly felt that physical education class was necessary, and as a former wizard duel champion, he knew that the timing of spells and the speed of their spells were important, and the ability to cast spells steadily was even more valuable in complex environments.Speed, strength, endurance, resistance to blows, etc., are all subject to the physical fitness of the students, and it would be great if there was a way to strengthen the children's level in this area.After all, being a wizard means always fighting with others, and the old professor hopes that it will not be his own students who will fall when the time comes.The two pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and the more they talked, the happier they became, and the two sides had very similar thoughts between Deathstroke and Dean Ravenclaw, and the two sides were very close to each other.The meal was soon over, and the piles of food on the table disappeared in an instant, and Dumbledore stood up, "Everyone is full, right?"
There are a few more things to explain, first of all, the Defence Against the Dark Arts class for the new year will be in charge of Professor Quirrell. ”Quirrell stood up cringefully and waved at the children, but he wore a dirty, quirky hat and a forced smile, and the children clapped politely.He didn't care, just sat down quickly and didn't say anything.Dumbledore then looked at Su Ming again: "This year Hogwarts will open a new compulsory course, which is led by Professor Wilson from the United States, and this course is called Physical Education. ”"Poof!"
Hermione spit out the juice in her mouth and spit it back into her cup, her big eyes losing their brightness and looking like she had been deceived, staring at the spicy blue man in the teacher's seat.No wonder he never said what course he was responsible for, it turned out to be physical education!
I hated PE class the most when I was in elementary school!
There are also Muggle-born wizards such as Harry Potter, who never expected that even if they entered the wizarding world, they would not be able to escape the clutches of the physical education teacher.Ron immediately asked Harry curiously what physical education class was, and Mr.
Potter immediately whispered to him what common sense such as 'running vomits out the liver', 'life is better than death when you are exhausted'.Harry had been malnourished since he was a child, and physical education in elementary school was a torture for him.After hearing this, Ron suddenly turned bitter: "I'm miserable, I'm most afraid of running." ”And Su Ming stood up and smiled and beckoned to the future test subjects, he was also a little unsure in his heart at this time, why did the elective course that he said was good suddenly become compulsory at this time?
What was Dumbledore trying to do?
However, the elder Deng did not stop at this question, and he continued his topic: "There are also reminders that Mr.
Filch, the administrator, asks everyone not to wander around the school after the lights are turned off.In addition, all students are forbidden to enter the Forbidden Forest and the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor, and I repeat, those areas are very dangerous and could kill you.Okay, finally, let's sing the school song together. ”The Great Hall was filled with all sorts of weird tunes, making it impossible for anyone to think.
