After getting off the broom, Sun Zhu's legs were still a little weak.

To be honest, she didn't think there was anything cool about flying around in the sky dodging a ball, but she did admit that it was slimming.

Cedric held the broom in one hand and took her arm with the other and walked towards where the badgers were.

Sun Zhu used his strength to move slowly. Karina and Duke trotted over and looked them up and down.

"You're not hurt, Zhu." Karina patted her chest. "Oh my god, two black balls. If I were you, I would have fallen down out of fright!"

"Thanks to Toside, I'm fine." Sun Zhu was a little frustrated. "Even if I didn't fall, I didn't perform very well."

"That's because you don't have a bat!" Duke said, "If you had one, you could use the bat to hit it somewhere else."

Cedric nodded. "Only the batsman will be equipped with a batting stick. The other players still need to dodge the ball. But generally speaking, the batsman on our side will also protect the other players from being attacked by the Bludger."

"Well, I don't like this kind of flying ball." Karina looked even more scared than her. "I want to be a Chaser. The Quaffle won't fly around. As long as it goes into the basket, you get 10 points. It's much more fun than playing Bludger!"

Sun Zhu nodded. To be honest, she was already traumatized by the Bludger.

This kind of speed is second only to the Golden Snitch. A ball that is not too big but has a lot of mass and can fly around is more like a "ghost".

James also came over and said to them, "Madam Hooch took away the two Bludgers and deducted 5 points from Slytherin and Gryffindor each."

"why?"

"Zhu, are you okay?" A voice suddenly came from behind. Sun Zhu turned around and saw one of the twins waving at her.

"I'm fine, thanks to Cedric." Sun Zhu shook his head, looked at the red-haired boy and said, "Are you, George?"

"It's me..." George seemed a little helpless. "Luckily you didn't recognize me wrongly. I wanted to explain that the Bludger was accidentally released when Fred had an argument with Slytherin's Yaxley. Alas, Madam Hooch deducted points from two houses because of it."

"Yaxley again!" Karina looked very angry, "He's more annoying than a Bludger!"

Sun Zhu understood a little. After all, although they were both members of the Holy Twenty-Eight pure-blood families, Weasley and Yaxley had very different views on how to treat Muggles and half-bloods. If these two met, it would be strange if they didn't fight.

"George, we have astronomy class in the evening, you must persuade Fred then." Sun Zhu knew that Fred had always been the more impulsive one of the twins.

"I can try to persuade him, but Yaxley may not avoid causing trouble." George shook his head. "If you are okay, then I will leave."

"It's okay, you should return to the team soon." Sun Zhu glanced at the place not far away and saw Mrs. Huo Qi already shouting for everyone to assemble and line up.

The five of them returned to the Badger House team, and a little badger shouted to them excitedly, "Mrs. Hooch said that you are all very suitable for Quidditch. If you are willing, you can join the substitutes of the college team next year."

Sun Zhu and Karina asked at the same time: "Including me?"

The little badger seemed to be stumped by the question and scratched his head. "Yes... yes. Madam Hooch said that one of you has quick reactions but is not very skilled at flying. However, you fly very steadily. If you can keep your mind calm, you will be suitable to be a chaser or seeker. The other one..."

He looked at Karina who looked excited, "She has a loud voice, which makes her suitable for delivering messages. She also has good eyesight and is not slow to react. If she is brave enough, she can be a goalkeeper or chaser."

Karina didn't know whether to be happy or depressed for a moment.

Madam Hooch whistled and everyone stopped talking.

"I have already observed some of you, students who are suitable for Quidditch and willing to join Quidditch, and I will take you to further training. Other students who are still interested in Quidditch can communicate with me later. If you simply want to learn how to ride a broom, you can ask me or your classmates anytime.”

After the flying lesson, the topic of lunch naturally revolved around Quidditch.

"Zhu, I don't want to be a goalkeeper, I want to be a chaser." Karina clenched her fist and said, "A goalkeeper can only stay near the basket, which is too boring."

Sun Zhu nodded: "But goalkeepers are also important. It's very rewarding to prevent the Chaser from scoring a goal."

"Our current captain is the goalkeeper. He is in the fourth grade this year, so we don't have to worry about not having a goalkeeper for now." Duke seemed to have a lot of information: "The current seeker is senior sister Cecilia. She is in the sixth grade this year and plans to quit next year. Our college team is in urgent need of a substitute seeker. In addition, there is a senior who is already in the seventh grade as the hitter. If no one goes to train with him now, we won't be able to form a team next year!"

Cedric said, "You've always wanted to be a batsman, and now's your chance."

"Ah." Duke shook his head: "Madame Hooch said that I don't have enough strength. The high-speed flying Bludger needs enough force to hit it to get off the track. So she prefers to let James be the substitute."

Karina nodded: "James can be seen as the strongest, but James, are you willing to be the batsman?"

James scratched his head embarrassedly: "I...I'm fine with it. I'll follow your instructions."

Fina didn't get into their conversation for a long time, and said somewhat dejectedly, "If I had known earlier, I should have gone to see it even if I didn't play with the broom."

Karina patted her shoulder and said, "Then you must come to watch our training and competitions in the future!"

"Of course." Fina said with a half-smile, "Although I didn't go, I have heard from other students about what happened to you."

She looked at Sun Zhu who was drinking soup and suddenly said, "James is very strong, but I guess not as strong as Diggory. After all, bamboo is definitely much heavier than a Bludger."

Sun Zhu choked on a mouthful of soup and bent over with coughing.

Fina handed her a tissue and pretended to be guilty and said, "Oh, I shouldn't have mentioned this."

Sun Zhu said with a wooden face: "No, you are right!"

She turned to look at Cedric, who was blushing, and said, "But rather than being a beater, Ced-san should be a seeker."

After all, he is the future ace seeker and captain of Hufflepuff. The role of seeker, the focal point of the team, should have been his.

Although most of the Seekers are relatively petite, this is not a problem in the face of absolute strength.

Fina smiled and nodded: "I trust your judgment."

In the afternoon's herbal medicine class, Professor Sprout knew that they were exhausted from the flying class in the morning, so he considerately did not let them do any physical work. Instead, he talked about the habits and effects of several common herbs.

Sun Zhu took a feather pen and carefully wrote down line after line. Seeing that Karina looked drowsy, he felt helpless.

"Wake up, you can't let Professor Sprout deduct Hufflepuff points yourself?" Sun Zhu pinched her face.

Karina rubbed her eyes and was a little frustrated: "My God, there is still an astronomy class tonight, how can I make it through?"

Sun Zhu, a professional who stays up late, smiled calmly, fearless.

"After exercising, you will consume a lot of energy and get sleepy. If you want to join Quidditch, you must improve your physical fitness." Fina said: "After returning to the dormitory, I will make a training schedule for you, both of you must strictly follow it .”

Sun Zhu stopped taking notes and looked at Fei·The Demoness·Na with Karina, their eyes full of disbelief.

Fina smiled slightly, and said very gently: "For Hufflepuff's Quidditch Cup, let's do our best from now on."
