Chinese students at Hogwarts

The two of them had just stopped when they heard a loud noise.

Above Zhang Xiao's head, the huge candle chandelier in the classroom swayed twice and suddenly fell.

Coincidentally, behind Moody, a cabinet that was originally fixed on the wall detached from the wall and smashed straight towards the back of Moody's head.

The two took a step back, but both waved their wands, but this time they didn't attack each other.

Zhang Xiao stabilized the cabinet behind Moody, while Moody used [Deceleration and Anti-shock] to stop the chandelier above Zhang Xiao's head.

"how so!"

Ron held his head and shouted:

"We have just reached the most exciting moment. Why do the cabinets and chandeliers fall down? I still want to continue watching!"

Not only Ron, but many young wizards also sighed in the same way, feeling that they were so unlucky, how could something so good suddenly fall down.

Neville's eyes suddenly widened in surprise, and with his round face, he looked a little funny:

"Zhang and Professor Moody seem to have done this on purpose!"

on purpose?

Harry had already had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but when Neville reminded him, he felt like he suddenly realized something.

Yes, Neville was right!

The cabinets and chandeliers were not accidents, they were intentional.

"You guys said" Harry gradually figured out the mystery, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The body was trembling slightly, which was a kind of excitement after suddenly understanding and the shock of seeing more advanced fighting ideas.

"If Professor Moody and Zhang keep increasing their speed like this, no matter how fast they are, there will always be a limit.

Just like what happened just now, the two people were even in the end, and no one could do anything to the other. What should we do at this time?

Will this stalemate continue? "

Malfoy raised his eyebrows slightly, and before he could speak, Hermione exclaimed in small surprise:

"I understand! If the stalemate continues like this, it won't be good for anyone, so there must be something that can be used as an opportunity to break this situation!"

The little wizard who listened carefully to their discussion didn't quite understand what Harry and Hermione were saying, but he felt it was very powerful.

Is that so?

Moody's blue magic eye turned in a circle and saw the cabinet behind his head that was fixed by magic.

A trace of surprise flashed across his face, and he nodded, waving his wand to restore everything.

"Zhang, beyond imagination, Slytherin adds 20 points!"

Zhang Xiao smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Professor."

"Don't most people understand?" After Zhang Xiao returned to his seat, Moody limped to the podium.

The little wizards immediately nodded vigorously. The fight was wonderful, but what next?

"First of all, you have to understand one thing. There is an upper limit on the casting speed of magic spells. This upper limit is not high. It is not difficult for someone with some skills to approach or reach this upper limit."

The little wizard listened carefully to these things that no one had ever told them before.

“Because we are simulating an encounter and are restricted from escaping, the classroom also limits many of our methods.

To demonstrate to you, I decided to use the wizards' favorite way of formally fighting. "

Moody laughed loudly. He took out the small flat silver pot and took a sip. Zhang Xiao instantly opened his eyes and could clearly see that the liquid dripping from the small silver pot was indeed wine.

Although it is almost confirmed that this is the real Professor Moody, it is not wrong to confirm more, so as to be prepared!

“But what surprised me was that Zhang also chose this method, which was to use continuous and fast magic spells to suppress his opponent.

Sometimes offense is the best defense, because the faster and more ruthlessly you attack, the opponent can only speed up his own speed and has no time to attack.

Then something unexpected happened to me for the second time——"

Malfoy's lips moved slightly:

"Zhang is following!"

"Zhang is following!" Moody was very excited, because for the first time he felt that it would be interesting to be a professor at Hogwarts, since Zhang could have such a sense of fighting at this age.

So can other little wizards achieve it?

"Why is this type of rapid continuous spells the most popular among wizards?" Moody asked.

Hermione wanted to raise her hand, but the answer to this question was not in the book. She was not sure whether the answer she thought was correct or not. It was impossible for her to give an answer that was not necessarily correct!

Neville slowly raised his hand, and Moody raised his chin at him and said with appreciation:

"Mr. Longbottom? Your parents, Alice and Frank, were my colleagues. They were two good Aurors, extremely outstanding!

Talk about it, don’t worry, just say it boldly! "

Neville stood up and took a deep breath:

"Because the upper limit of the speed of casting magic spells cannot be reached by ordinary wizards, so once the opponent cannot keep up, it is the best time to win!"

"Very good, five points for Gryffindor!"

Moody motioned for him to sit down, his expression became more serious:

"That's it. This is also why powerful wizards rarely fight in this way. When each other can reach or approach the upper limit, this approach will only put everyone into an embarrassing situation."

He scratched his gray hair again:

"So Zhang and I were in a stalemate just now. There are many ways to break the deadlock, such as powerful black magic, or using a spell that cannot be blocked by the Iron Armor Curse to force the other party to dodge.

But that obviously didn’t work during the demo, so to win we needed a little something extra.

This is also the third time Zhang shocked me.

Can anyone tell me why the cabinets and chandelier fell down? "

Moody's eyes scanned the little wizard, asked a question, and then locked eyes with Harry who slowly raised his hand:

"Oh? Harry Potter! Tell me."

"Professor, I think that in the battle just now, due to restrictions, you were unable to use conventional means to interrupt the stalemate, so you paid attention to the surrounding environment.

Such as the chandelier above your head and the cabinet behind you.

You deliberately guided the direction in which your spells were deflected. This seems difficult to me. I don't quite understand how you did it, but there is no doubt that you all succeeded.

The deflected spell caused the chandelier to fall and the cabinet to fall off.

This immediately broke the stalemate. "

"Five more points for Gryffindor, beautiful analysis!"

Professor Moody laughed loudly, while the other little wizards suddenly realized, and then they inhaled hard and looked at Zhang Xiao in shock.

You can actually let the opponent bounce the spell in the direction you want? Although it's just a rough idea, it doesn't work every time.

But this is completely beyond the imagination of the little wizards.

But I didn’t expect Professor Moody’s more shocking words to come:

"I think just from this battle, Zhang is no longer weaker than Auror in actual combat, which is rare!"

The little wizard's breathing became louder and louder, but Professor Moody was indeed right, and Zhang Xiao's estimate for himself was almost the same.

Using only magic, his strength is about the same as that of a new Auror, but his level is not.

That’s a very high level!

Do you understand what a ‘Dharma God’ is? Do Dumbledore and Voldemort Herbo know? The three of them and I are in the same realm!

(For details, see Chapter 56 of Volume 2: The Weakest ‘Dharma God’ in History)

"Okay, today's homework is to go back and write a specific analysis of what was shown today.

Remember, a wizard is definitely not just stupidly waving magic spells to recite spells to the opponent!

You still have a lot to learn. "

The little wizards nodded hurriedly, recalling the so-called 'battle' between themselves and their classmates - standing a few meters away, pointing their wands at each other, and chanting small curses loudly, without moving during the period. They couldn't help but blush. .

"Always be alert!"

Moody ended the class with one sentence. After seeing everyone startled, he smiled with satisfaction.

"get out of class is over!"

What happened in this class spread quickly.

Whether it was Moody and Zhang Xiao's legend that they were "almost as fast as afterimages" or the last two people making the same choice, the little wizards were all talking about it.

In their second year, they once enjoyed a 'high-quality' duel, in which Professors McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, and Professor Snape faced off against the big bad guy Lockhart.

It's just that the battle was exciting, but firstly, it was far away, and secondly, the exquisite magic exceeded the imagination of the little wizards, and the little wizards couldn't understand the game and position selection between the two sides.

So they only left Zhang Xiao, who was pretty good at fighting, but not as interesting as Zhang Xiao riding a dragon and fighting the basilisk.

But this time was different. They watched a high-quality duel at close range, and also saw the mentality they should have when fighting in a real battle.

It's definitely not a game where you send me a block, but a game like wizard chess!

In particular, Professor Moody's comment about Zhang Xiao - 'no worse than the average Auror' - further fueled the fermentation of the comments.

Darling, although I know Zhang is very strong, he is an Auror!

"What? A very powerful person wants to give us special training?"

Malfoy put down the quill in his hand, raised his eyebrows high, and looked at Zhang Xiao suspiciously:

"Very powerful? How powerful? Better than Professor Moody? Potter said Professor Moody is willing to teach him both ways."

He recalled what Dumbledore had told him about the Glove Lady, and what he had come into contact with.

Zhang Xiao said slowly with a very strange expression:

"How should I put it? It's not a question of whether she is powerful or not. She is a very special, very special existence. In short, Principal Dumbledore said that we should respect her."

Zhang Xiao's voice dropped, and he remembered going to the archives to look up the records of the Hogwarts Warriors over the years.

We focused on the period from the 14th to the 18th century, because based on the decoration style of the Glove Lady, it is most likely that she was a Hogwarts student from these centuries.

What was unexpected was that no such person could be found
