Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Ron's reaction was expected by his friends. They all knew Ron's character. The more he showed himself in a crowded place, the more panicked he became.

But in fact, in terms of Ron's strength, the only person who can really pose a threat to his selection is probably the seventh-grade Gryffindor student, McLagen.

In last year's selection, McLaggen showed great ability and was one of the three final candidate goalkeepers. Although he fell to Lewis in the end, he was not convinced in his heart. He always believed that , as one of Ron's friends, Louis definitely put a lot of pressure on the selection process.

Now, without Louis as a distraction, he believed that he was strong enough to gain a foothold on the Quidditch team.

But one thing about McLaggen is very annoying. He is extremely conceited and deliberately tries to elevate himself by putting others down. At the beginning of the goalkeeper selection, he kept getting close to Harry and talked about how great he was. Taking advantage of the fact that Harry was not in the selection last year, he said that he was not selected last year because he was unwell and did not participate. Selection.

He believed that Ron's poor performance last semester was obvious to all, and for the sake of the team's honor, he hoped that Harry would consider it carefully.

Harry didn't speak. He knew best what kind of level Ron was, but McLagan's nagging attitude and the look of belittling Ron made him feel very uncomfortable.

"He is actually this kind of person."

Hermione stared at McLagan with some disgust, "I really want to use unconventional means to win the position. Maybe I should cast a confusion spell on him."

The last words were spoken very softly, but Lewis, who was sitting next to him, heard them clearly.

Hermione herself is a very principled wizard, and she does not bother to cheat to win unless they encounter a real crisis or the other party cheats before them.

"Believe Ron, this is his arena."

"This McLaggen was defeated by Senior Weiss Lai last year." Rolf said on the side, and he was also one of the witnesses at the time. "I don't think he can get a quota this year."

Facts have proved that Rolf's judgment was not wrong.

After the goalkeeper selection began, it was very different from the previous selections. The performance of the previous players was not very good. Under the repeated bombardment of Ginny, Katie and Mitchell, the best result was only maintained. Three goals.

The fifth person to play was McLaggen. Katie Bell, who was in charge of pitching, glanced at Harry and understood. Her eyes became serious. The speed of the first four balls was very fast. It was obvious that the level and intensity of the pitching were not the same as before. an order of magnitude.

However, McLagan's foundation is indeed quite good. His reaction ability and save level are top-notch among all goalkeepers. His continuous saves have won him applause from the audience.

Harry looked up at the sky with some worry. McLagan's four consecutive saves brought him just one step away from the goalkeeper.

In the stands, Hermione even secretly took out her wand and prepared to operate it, but was pressed down by Louis on the side.

"Don't worry, he can't pass Ginny's test.

"

The fifth ball was thrown by Ginny Weiss. Her attack style was completely different from Katie's. Ginny's tactics were changeable and weird, and no one could predict the path of her Quaffle.

Moreover, her shooting angle was very tricky. With a feint, she deceived McLagan, who was already proud of having defended four goals in a row. Then she suddenly turned and sent the ball in a perfect winding curve to the far right. basketball basket.

Almost grazing McLagan's fingers, Ginny showed everyone a super stunt, which made McLagan very annoyed. He looked at Ginny fiercely, and then fell to the ground.

The selection competition continued, and among the next few players, two more players defended four goals, but the real candidate was still not decided.

Ron was the last one to play, and everyone in the stands held their breath. Only the Slytherin people were whistling and mocking Ron, and some even took the lead in singing that song.

Harry was also very nervous. He didn't dare to look at Ron's performance for fear that he would miss all the balls.

If Ron only saves four goals, then the four of them will enter the finals for another round.

In fact, there was no need to panic. Although Ron looked shaky, his performance was impeccable.

Ginny's serve was equally tricky. She didn't give in because the opponent was her brother. Instead, she threw the ball even harder. Ron made several difficult saves. His strength was more mature and experienced than last year. The old master even used only one hand to slam down the Quaffle for the last ball.

Five wonderful saves earned him a louder cheer than McLagan, and Harry's suspense gradually relaxed.

When he turned his head, he saw McLagan's face flushed, as if he wanted to vent:

"His sister didn't serve seriously at all! This is obvious cheating!" His tone was irritable, and veins popped out on his forehead. "Every serve she gave him was easy to save."

"Nonsense!" Harry said coldly. Facing McLagan's big body, he didn't know where he got the courage. "This trial was fair. There were so many spectators witnessing it. Ron defended against all of them. Five goals and you've only defended four, he's the undisputed goalkeeper. Now you can go out."

Harry originally thought that McLaggen would hit him with his fist, but McLaggen didn't do that. He just made a face at him, and then walked away without looking back, muttering something at the same time. talk:

"With Wiggins' behavior last year, Gryffindor will be defeated by you guys sooner or later."

"what are you saying?"

"Nothing, I wish you and your little followers a good time, Captain."

McLaggen gestured towards Harry with disdain. Harry didn't like that guy at first, but now he was even more grateful that Ron could completely defeat this guy with his strength.

It would be a disaster if someone like McLagan really joined the Hogwarts Quidditch team.

Of course, Ron herself is quite satisfied with the results of this selection. Katie Bell also recognizes Ron's strength. She believes that even if she changes the penalty kicker, she may not be able to break through Ron's door.

The Gryffindor Quidditch team was finally formed, and after nearly four hours of selection, Harry picked out the players he thought were pretty good.

After confirming the first training next Tuesday, he announced the end of this trial, and then several people discussed plans to go to the hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest to visit Hagrid.
