A friendly day at Hogwarts

The news that Colin was attacked and turned to stone quickly spread throughout Hogwarts. The students were all in danger. Groups of young wizards acting collectively could be seen everywhere in the castle.

The three Harrys successfully stole the African tree snake skin from Professor Snape's private collection room, and Glenn also handed over the bicorn horn to them as agreed.

Although the preparation of Polyjuice Potion is complicated and troublesome, it is not difficult.For Hermione, as long as she followed the book step by step, there was basically no problem.If nothing unexpected happens, in another half month, they will be able to successfully carry out the disguise plan.

Since Colin's attack, rumors about the Chamber of Secrets have spread increasingly wildly at Hogwarts.

With a week left until Christmas, a new piece of parchment suddenly appeared on the bulletin board in the foyer. The school decided to reopen the dueling club.

"I didn't expect that we would be able to catch up with the Duel Club's reopening during the school day!"

Seeing Glenn also coming to check the bulletin board, Eddie, who had been there for a long time, said enthusiastically.

"Reopening?" Qiu glanced at him and asked, "So, has there been such a club in Hogwarts before?"

"Of course!" Eddie said without hesitation, "Dueling back then was a tradition at Hogwarts. When conflicts between students were irreconcilable, dueling would be used to solve the problem. The club at that time would even teach Some spells for dueling."

Glenn looked at the content on the parchment and continued to ask, "If this is the case, why did this club close back then?"

"As far as I know," Eddie whispered, "there was a group of people in Hogwarts at that time who caused trouble everywhere in the school every day and proposed duels whenever they disagreed. And the spells they chose were not at all It was not about winning or losing the duel, but just to enjoy the process of causing pain to the opponent. Later, the situation worsened, and the principal at the time had no choice but to close the club."

"That's it." Many curious teenagers around had surprised looks on their faces.

"Speaking of which, do you think the dueling club is really useful?" Marcos, the sidekick, hesitated and asked, "I mean, if we encounter the monster in the secret room, will it wait for us to be ready before dueling?"

"Don't think too much," Glenn smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Sooner or later you will come in handy for dueling."

The whole day passed quickly with everyone talking, and in the blink of an eye, at eight o'clock in the evening, the little wizards from grades one to four gathered in the auditorium.

This situation seems different from what was said in the original work, but it is more reasonable.

There were too many people in the school, and the strength gap between the upper and lower grades was too big, so the club was divided into two parts, and students in fifth grade and above were arranged in another time period.

In the auditorium, the four long tables have disappeared, and a three-foot-high stage has appeared on the wall. The corners are wrapped in shining gold foil for decoration, and the table is also decorated with complicated patterns. Hundreds of bright Candles floated in the air, lighting up the entire auditorium.

Needless to say, such an exaggerated design must have been designed by Lockhart.

"Who do you think Professor Dumbledore will arrange to teach us?" Qiu walked to Glenn and asked in a low voice.

In order to facilitate the duel, she did not wear her usual school uniform robe. Instead, like most people, she changed into a tight-fitting outfit to prevent the large cloak and sleeves from hindering the movement of waving the wand. Her long, shiny black hair was also pulled into a bun. She wore a refreshing and capable ponytail, which made her snow-white neck even longer.

Seeing her outfit, Glenn couldn't help but stare.

I don't know why more than two years have passed, but I didn't expect that this little girl's figure has developed so well...

"What are you looking at?"

It was the first time Qiu saw him showing such an expression and asked in confusion.

"Ah? Oh! It's nothing!" Glenn came back to his senses in an instant, a trace of panic flashed across his face, "Who did you think would give the lecture, right..."

Before he could finish speaking, Marcos appeared in time and took on the role of supporting actor.

"If you ask me, it's probably Professor Flitwick. He was a dueling champion when he was young!"

"Although I admit that Flitwick is not bad, I still think Professor Lockhart is more powerful."

Marietta retorted, pink hearts suddenly appeared in her eyes.

"Think about the strange creatures he encountered in his books! Vampires, banshees, and snowmen! In terms of actual combat experience, he must be much better than the average teacher!"

Qiu glanced at her helplessly. She was speechless for a while and could only shake her head silently.

"Ah, yes, yes, everything you said is right!" Marcos activated his skill - Yin and Yang.

"You!" Marietta glared at him fiercely and raised her hand to strike.

Glenn was amused for a while, pointed to the door of the auditorium and said, "Stop arguing, the answer has been announced."

Several people looked in the direction he pointed and saw a radiant Lockhart in a purple robe.Behind him was Professor Snape, who looked reluctant.

There was a commotion in the crowd, some were happy and some were sad.

"Oh no..."

The combination of Lockhart and Snape was obviously not easy for Harry and Ron to accept.

The crowd parted automatically, making way for the two of them.

Lockhart jumped onto the stage with a spring in his step, beckoned everyone to gather around him, and began his dangerous speech of boasting and trying to push Snape down.

"...Don't worry, I will return your Potions Master to you intact..."

When he said this, Glenn clearly noticed that the corners of Professor Snape's eyes twitched slightly. Obviously, that was a very dangerous signal.

Under Lockhart's greeting, the two separated and stood on their own sides.

"According to the rules of the duel, first we need to bow to each other." Lockhart smiled and bent down, his wand dancing in his hand like a butterfly through a flower.

Professor Snape just lowered his head impatiently and raised his wand to his chest.

"Wouldn't it be great if they fought and both sides would lose?" Ron turned around, deliberately avoiding Hermione, and whispered to Glenn and Harry.

"Believe me, Ron." Glenn smiled and shook his head. "A Lockhart stacked on top of one another can't beat a Snape."

Of course, he also didn't dare to let Hermione hear this.

"Then, as long as we count to three, we will cast the first spell. Of course, we will definitely not want to take each other's lives."

"Three...two...one..."

"Except your weapons!"

A dazzling red light shot out from the tip of His Highness the Half-Blood Prince's staff and hit Lockhart's chest in the blink of an eye.

The huge magic power exploded instantly, and he flew out on the spot, hit the wall hard, and then slowly slid down.
