Chinese students at Hogwarts

Zhang Xiao played with the golden cup in his hand. Even after a thousand years, the golden cup was still as clean as new.

Two finely processed solid gold handles are intertwined and twisted, and the body of the cup is engraved with exquisite symbolic carvings.

Hufflepuff's golden cup was once the first vessel in Hogwarts to assist house elves in magical food transportation.

It remained in Hufflepuff House until Helga's death.

The process of taking the gold cup in the end was unremarkable. As Grindelwald said, the fire spell and the copying spell were just poor defense measures.

It may be possible to deceive young people with little experience like Harry, Hermione and Ron, but for the elderly thieves, it is really too low-level.

The difficulty in stealing the Gold Cup has never been in the vault, but in Gringotts' defense system.

Perhaps it was with this in mind that Voldemort gave the golden cup to Bella, whom he trusted the most, and hid it in the vault.

Under the awkward look in Grindelwald's eyes, Newt and Dumbledore casually released [All Curses End], and then it was as if they were going shopping in a supermarket.

After the bronze door, which had completely transformed into Dumbledore's shape, closed, it was as if nothing had happened.

Grindelwald returned to Nurmengard again, but he also said that he was just going back to rest. When he had enough rest, he still wanted to come out and take a look.

Look at what the world has become over the past few decades.

Zhang Xiao felt that maybe it was because he casually said something about the development of Muggles while chatting with Grindelwald, and Grindelwald became more and more melancholy.

Among the few people, only Newt is always sober. He does not care about the future of the wizarding world and has no prejudice against Muggles. One of his best friends is a Muggle named Jacob.

Newt knew where his path was and had no interest in power. After the incident at Gringotts, he immediately enthusiastically made appointments with several magical animal sanctuaries to continue his journey of exploration.

Well. Because when I communicated with him, I expressed a not-so-decent view. For example, if you want to protect a certain species, you must develop its commercial value. This view is actually very biased and not absolute.

But Newt was convinced, after learning that China once had a "Book of Mountains and Seas" that described in detail whether magical animals could be eaten and what their functions were.

This contemporary and perhaps the most outstanding master of magical animals in history decided to complete a brand new work based on the "Book of Mountains and Seas".

It's called "Amazing Fantastic Beasts."

Dumbledore was called away by Nicolas Flamel. The legendary alchemist was as excited as a sixty-year-old 'young' boy and insisted on having a good discussion with Dumbledore in the last days of his life.

Judging from his appearance, if he had not discussed it with Dumbledore in the last moments, he would have rubbed another magic stone and borrowed strength from heaven for another five hundred years.

So it became like this.

He returned to his loyal Hogwarts alone with the gold cup.

Place the golden cup on the table in front of you.

Zhang Xiao carefully looked at the exquisite and complicated patterns on it. It is said that the relics left by the four founders have their own magical and unique magical effects.

For example, the Sword of Gryffindor can absorb other things to strengthen itself, and the Crown of Ravenclaw can clear people's minds and give them wisdom.

But except for the sword, the other three items have all been reduced to Horcruxes, and no matter how magical they are, they are just a thing of the past.

Zhang Xiao sighed softly. Even if the Dao Sect could extract the soul inside, the magic contained in it would have disappeared the moment it was made into a Horcrux.

In the end, only a shell was left.

He expressed his regret for these relics, and incidentally condemned Voldemort's nouveau riche mentality of wasting away all natural resources and preventing wild boars from eating fine chaff.

He skillfully took out the jade box, wrapped the gold cup, and prepared to find a time to send it back to the Taoist Gate for disinfection and harmless treatment.

Speaking of which, now five out of seven Horcruxes have been eliminated, and the remaining one, Harry, is already a dead thing. Harry was prepared, so only the last Horcrux made by Voldemort is left.

After three years of hard work, Voldemort finally had his last trump card drawn.

What's even better is that the extremely important turning point in Gaunt's old house not only did not lead Dumbledore to the dead end of death in the original work, but instead took him to a higher level because of the inspiration he received.

This level is not about strength, but about realm. In the words of Nicolas Flamel, Dumbledore finally broke through the shackles and entered a new realm that no one has ever reached.

Looking at it this way, the situation is not a small good, but a great one!

With the arrival of June, the days become sultry and cloudless. After a few months of cold weather, everyone is eager to go outside and stroll by the black lake to enjoy the cool wind.

Or sit on the floor with your friends, chat happily over iced pumpkin juice, and play crackle blast cards.

But they can't do that because the exam is really approaching.

When many people think about the final third grade exam in a few days, they tremble with nervousness and feel inexplicably guilty because of a series of things that happened in the third grade.

As a result, many people were not interested in studying. They were keen to talk about what happened in Hogsmeade, holding the "Daily Prophet" and whispering about Rita Skeeter's report in it.

Speculating on what 'Fudge's Magnificent Life' meant, some people swore that Fudge's office must be filled with perfume and decorated with gorgeous flowers.

‘Oh, those perfumes and flowers must be very expensive, maybe you can buy a house full of sizzling bees! ’

Junior wizards always end up like this.

"I hate exams!" In the tree house where they usually stayed in the common room, Ron suddenly dropped his quill on the parchment. The ink spattered in the shape of droplets, extending from the parchment to Neville's face who just raised his head. superior.

"Oh - here we go again!" Hermione sighed and took out her wand: "Cleaned up!"

The ink quickly faded and disappeared. Hermione inserted the wand back, pursed her lips and glared at him sternly, and said without mercy:

"Ron, why don't you think about the days before when you told the story in the dungeon to the first and second grade wizards over and over again?"

Ron shrank his neck. He felt that Hermione was becoming more and more like Professor McGonagall. Not only the tone of her voice, but now even some of her small movements were exactly the same as Professor McGonagall.

"I'm just..." Ron's eyes wandered around, trying to get some hints from other people. Harry simply shrugged and gave him a wishful look.

Malfoy just wanted to watch the fun, but Zhang Xiao wanted to help rescue him, but Hermione obviously didn't give him a chance. Instead, she never did homework or listened to classes, which extended to the education in the wizarding world.

Ron felt his head buzzing, and he couldn't help but regret it. Instead of listening to Hermione's nagging, he would have been better off doing his homework.

Seeing that the fun was gone, everyone continued to work on their homework.

In this atmosphere, exam week finally came, and there was an unusual silence in the castle.

On Monday, third-grade students lined up outside the Transfiguration classroom.

Professor McGonagall held a roll of parchment in her hand, and habitually glanced around with a menacing gaze before saying sternly:

"Stand at the door, and when your name is called, go in, one by one!"

By the time the last Zhang Xiao entered, it was almost lunch time.

The Transfiguration classroom was very different from before. The long desks had been moved to the corners, and there was only a table in the center with various utensils on it.

Professor McGonagall looked a little tired. After all, Professor McGonagall was leading the Transfiguration classes not just for the third grade, but for other grades as well.

"Zhang, it's your turn." Professor McGonagall showed a rare smile and nodded towards Zhang Xiao: "Although your level of transfiguration is obvious to all, the test is just a test."

"Yes, Professor, I totally understand."

Zhang Xiao also nodded. According to his evaluation of himself, if he removed the rubbish subjects like divination class, he would go directly to N. E. w． It shouldn't be a problem to get all O's in Ts (Ultimate Wizarding Test).

Tom at this age is also at a similar level. It can only be said that heroes in the world should not be underestimated. After all, Tom in sixth grade can already make the amazing Merope's Gate in Gaunt's old house.

Although there are still many flaws, after three repairs by Voldemort in the future, it can actually bring some breakthrough inspiration to Dumbledore, which is enough to witness the strength of Voldemort in the sixth grade.

"Okay, let's start - first is this teapot. I hope you can turn it into a turtle. The more complex and realistic the patterns on the turtle shell, the better. If you can make it crawl here like a real one, That’ll get extra points.”

Zhang Xiao came out of the other door of the Transfiguration Classroom. The little wizards were all there. He could only leave after everyone finished their exams and Professor McGonagall announced.

They were all disgraced and lacked energy when walking. They compared their scores with each other and lamented that the tasks given to them were too difficult.

Hermione fussed that the turtle she conjured looked more like a turtle, but others were content with that, so her complaint was irritating.

"The tail of the bird and turtle I turned into is still the spout of a teapot. This is terrible..."

"Do you think there is a possibility that there is a kind of turtle in the world that breathes water vapor?"

"My turtle still has a willow-leaf pattern on its shell. Do you think this will deduct points from me?"

The whispers of the little wizards made everyone feel heavy. Even Hermione was immersed in the low pressure of the turtle she had conjured, which looked like a turtle.

Zhang Xiao was helpless, because due to the lack of parental supervision, few young wizards could study seriously. This was not an exception, but a common problem, whether it was wizards or Muggles.

To be honest, the school's courses and exams are not difficult. As long as you work hard, it is not difficult to get excellent results. All I can say is to let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.

No wonder Hermione is called the old mother. Because she really urges everyone to make progress.

Everyone ate lunch in a hurry and went back upstairs to take the exam for the Charms class.

Hermione was very good at answering questions. During the review, she said that the Happy Charm would most likely be tested in the exam.

Sure enough, Professor Flitwick did test their happiness spell.

It's just that Harry went a little too far in alleviating his nervousness, and Ron, his partner, burst into hysterical laughter at the end, and Flitwick had to take him to a quiet room for an hour, waiting until he could Until you recite the happy mantra.

As expected, Flitwick once again raised the difficulty for Zhang Xiao.

"Zhang, I hope you can make Malfoy smile just right, like this-"

Looking at the "Mona Lisa Smile" oil painting that Flitwick took out, Zhang Xiao almost couldn't stand it anymore, and Malfoy laughed directly into "funny"!

After dinner, the little wizards rushed back to the common room, not to relax, but to start reviewing Care of Magical Creatures, Potions and Astronomy.

The next morning, Hagrid presided over the Care of Magical Creatures exam, which was the most interesting exam the young wizards had ever experienced - getting a small branch from the wand tree with the Bowtruckle.

Even with Hagrid's care, some little wizards were still slightly injured.

They couldn't remember exactly what gift to give the Bowtruckle, and they passed by the barrels containing the eggs of the earthworms and fairies.

Holding back his nausea, he grabbed a handful of grubs. Bowtruckle became furious and hit them hard twice.

"Oh - how stupid!" Malfoy frowned and commented as he watched an extreme pureblood from Slytherin scream and cover his face, crying and shouting.

They had a potion test on Tuesday afternoon and it was an absolute disaster.

Despite Harry's best efforts, his chaos sauce was still too strong, and Snape stood watching the whole time, looking gloating.

Harry watched sadly as he left to fill in the words on the report card, which looked very much like a zero.

In addition to Harry, Snape was also uncharacteristically hanging around Zhang Xiao, hesitating to speak, which made Zhang Xiao very strange.

In the end, he had to stop what he was doing and had a deep understanding of why Harry's potions scores had always been poor.

Because with Snape by your side, it's really hard for you to fully immerse yourself in it. You always feel like his eyes are lingering around your neck, and he might come up and give you a bite at any time.

"Zhang——" When he saw Zhang Xiao stop and look at him with a polite questioning look, Snape pursed his lips and lifted the greasy hair hanging from his face.

In his unique aria-like speaking style, he whispered: "Your Christmas gift to Flitwick and McGonagall——"

Snape's voice became lower and lower, and when it came to talking about Christmas gifts, almost nothing could be heard. What was even more bizarre was that after he finished talking about Christmas gifts, he turned around and left.

If Zhang Xiao's five senses weren't so sensitive, he wouldn't have been able to hear what he said.

Christmas gift? What happened to the Christmas gifts?

Zhang Xiao frowned and thought hard for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes in surprise. Could it be that Snape was reminding him?

Then you can just tell me no? This little thing has been delayed for half a year!

Arrogant, so arrogant!

There was an astronomy test at midnight, and everyone went to the highest building.

The History of Magic exam was on Wednesday morning, and as Harry wrote down on his paper everything Florin had told him about the medieval witch hunts, he wished he could have a copy of Florin's Chocolate Nuts in this stuffy classroom. Ice cream sundae.

The herbal medicine test was on Wednesday afternoon, which meant staying in the conservatory in the scorching sun; when we returned to the common room, the backs of our necks were sunburnt and we were longing for the next day, when the test would be held. It's all over.

Thursday morning was Defense Against the Dark Arts, their penultimate exam.

The test proposed by Professor Lupine was one that none of them had ever taken, and it was the most unusual: it was an obstacle course-like test outdoors, in the sun, and the students had to wade across a section of ground where there was Grindy. Lo's Pond, through a series of potholes filled with red caps, squeaking through a swamp, ignoring the wrong instructions from a hinkpunk, and then climbing into an old box with a new bog Gert fights.

"Excellent, Harry," Lupine muttered, as Harry climbed out of the box with a smile, "Full marks."

Harry's face flushed with joy and he stayed there, waiting to see Ron and Hermione's results. Ron was great until he met Hinkpunk, but Hinkpunk's misguided guidance left him waist-deep in mud.

With tears in her eyes, Hermione stared at Professor McGonagall who read her transcript loudly, saying that she was unqualified, and successfully turned the Boggart into Dumbledore despite the pressure, and announced in public that she was the next wizard. After the meeting, everyone finally realized that the exam was almost over and a happy vacation was coming.

All that's left is the annoying Professor Trelawney and the Divination exam.
