Li Zixu's first impression of Tom Riddle was very deep.

No way, to be honest, except for Slytherin, the blood of the four founders of Hogwarts has long been severed. Even the descendants of Slytherin have not stepped into the school founded by their ancestors for a long time .

When Riddle entered the range of Hogwarts, Li Zixu felt the joy of Hogwarts very clearly, just like a child seeing his relatives!

From this, Li Zixu noticed the new student very rarely.

Among his peers, Riddle was a little thin and his face was slightly pale, which was due to long-term malnutrition.He was wearing a second-hand robe, but the robe fit very well and was ironed flat without any wrinkles, so he was considered decent among the many freshmen.

He pursed his lips. Although he tried his best to relax and make himself appear elegant and calm, his demeanor was still a little stiff.Of course, even aristocratic students are always nervous when they come to Hogwarts for the first time, so his behavior is not too eye-catching.

The Sorting Hat sings the sorting song that it took a school year to make up in its tuneless tune, poisoning the ears of all living and non-living things in Hogwarts, perhaps this is its greatest pleasure.

Dumbledore stood next to the sorting hat, holding the list of new students and calling them by name one by one.Li Zixu glanced at the freshmen in the auditorium lightly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The number of pure-blood wizards has been declining from generation to generation. Although overall, the number of wizards has been stable, the UK's wizard population has not changed much in the past 200 years. However, it is clear that mixed-blood and hemp-blood wizards have become mainstream. Corresponding to this is the decline of magic civilization. If wizards continue like this, it won't take long for magic to really become something only in fairy tales.

Li Zixu quickly put this idea behind him. The magic of wizards is too dependent on blood inheritance. From generation to generation, the blood is getting thinner and thinner, and their decline is inevitable.Survival of the fittest and survival of the fittest is a matter of course.Since wizards don't want to make progress, it is only natural for them to be eliminated.

Soon, Dumbledore called Riddle's name, and Riddle forced himself to be calm, and walked slowly to the Sorting Hat like those noble students, put on the Sorting Hat, and called out as soon as the Sorting Hat touched his hair. Said: "Of course, Slytherin!"

Riddle took off the sorting hat nimbly, saluted Dumbledore, and then walked to the Slytherin table.

The Slytherins reservedly gave him applause, and a series of family trees of pure-blood wizards flashed through his mind. He didn't know where the surname Riddle came from.However, they took a critical look at Riddle's clothes. No matter how clean they were washed and how smooth they were ironed, they were still second-hand. Moreover, his etiquette was still a little rusty, and they quickly determined their respective attitudes.

Riddle sat down at the end of the long table, keeping a low profile. He was just an orphan from the Muggle world, so naturally he couldn't be too prominent.Life in the orphanage taught him a lot, for example, patience.

Soon, all the freshmen were sorted into colleges and sat on the long tables of the colleges.As the headmaster, Dippet got up to give a speech as usual, but look at the children below, all of them were so hungry that their chests stuck to their backs, and Slytherin was fine, in order to maintain their aristocratic demeanor, they still did it very well. However, most of the students' eyes are almost green from hunger.

Dippet didn't say much nonsense, but emphasized the school motto and some points to pay attention to, and announced the start of the dinner.

All kinds of food piled up on the long table, and almost everyone started to eat without caring about anything else.

Li Zixu drank a bowl of corn mushroom bacon soup slowly, while talking perfunctorily with the rest of the professors.

The British diet is always very greasy, and Li Zixu has never caught a cold. Therefore, after drinking a bowl of soup and eating a small piece of lamb chops with black pepper, he almost lost his appetite, so he just took a small bowl of fruit Salad, eat as you please.

To be honest, if it weren't for wizards who have all kinds of potions, it is estimated that most wizards will suffer from the three highs when they reach middle age.

On one side, Dumbledore held a glass of wine, looked at the students under the teacher's seat, and said with a smile: "Professor Li, looking at these children, I feel very old!"

Li Zixu chuckled and did not speak. Professor Flitwick looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Albus, you are still Li's student, and now you look like Li's professor!"

Several people in the teacher's seat laughed in good faith. There are three professors who have taught at Hogwarts for the longest time. One is Binns who teaches the history of magic. He is a ghost and is protected by Hogwarts. It will not be a problem to be able to continue working for thousands of years; then there is Flitwick, who is one of the earlier students at Hogwarts, has the blood of the forest elves, and almost teaches with Li Zixu; However, he couldn't see the blood of any magical creature. No matter how he looked at it, he was human. Everyone thought that he was able to stay young because of the Philosopher's Stone. Therefore, apart from envy and respect, few people knew that Li Zixu himself Is a very powerful mage.

The atmosphere on the teacher's table was very relaxed, and the students below were almost familiar at the moment. After all, the magic world is not big, and most of them are at least familiar with each other. The number of freshmen in the magic world was also very limited, so, soon, almost all the colleges knew each other, and the atmosphere became warmer.

The boys quickly showed off their spells, the latest broomsticks, their favorite Quidditch teams and stars, courting pretty girls and flushing with excitement.The girls exchange all kinds of trinkets and clothes, as well as the latest fashion trends...  

Riddle was sitting there, and a new student beside him secretly asked him about his life experience. After all, those who can make the Sorting Hat so certain, the general bloodlines will not be so bad, maybe, is it the illegitimate son of some great nobleman?Riddle just said sincerely that he was just an orphan, and he didn't know who his parents were... The Slytherins accepted his reason, and no one thought that he was not a pure-blood. Soon, he was integrated into it, even though it was difficult to go further, but he was already very satisfied.
