Magical Studies at Hogwarts

The foyer has become the most crowded place in Hogwarts.

From the moment the Goblet of Fire was placed in the foyer after the dinner, people began to put parchments with their names and schools on them, and each time, the onlookers cheered and encouraged them.

On the second day, the situation became more serious.

There are always about twenty people watching around the Goblet of Fire, and there are many who just stand at the door and watch from a distance.

I don’t know what time they came. Anyway, it was just seven o’clock when Stewart and others arrived at the foyer with Ike who was forcibly pulled up.

"Has anyone signed up?" Stewart asked eagerly.

"Yes, there are people from Durmstrang." Ron, who arrived earlier, said, and pointed to the twins who were cheering him up next to him, "They are the next two."

"I don't think this is reliable. The age limit set by Dumbledore will not be broken so easily." Hermione said after naturally getting together with Ike.

"I think so too." Ike nodded.

"There must be no problem this time!" The twins didn't seem to hear it, or they seemed to have heard it but ignored it. They raised their heads and drank up the age-increasing agent in the bottle in their hands. They stepped into the age line one after another and wrote their own

The parchment with the name and school was thrown into the Goblet of Fire.

But soon, the flames rose so high that a force directly threw the twins out of the age line. The parchment they had just thrown in was spit out and hit directly in the face.

In the blink of an eye, long white beards grew on their chins.

"I reminded you." Dumbledore's voice sounded from behind the students, "I think you should go to Madam Pomfrey. She has dealt with many students with white beards since last night.

"

"I have to say, your white beard is not as beautiful as mine." Finally, he touched his own white beard.

"No, no, no, ours is much prettier than yours!" The twins shouted in unison with a smile, and then ran towards the school hospital. Behind them, the crowd also burst into laughter.

It didn't take long for the Beauxbatons girls to arrive. Madame Maxime was at the back, watching them throw the parchment in one after another, starting with the most beautiful one.

Seeing how Stuart and Ron looked like they were exactly the same, both Ike and Hermione moved aside in disgust, as if they wanted to distance themselves from the two of them.

"Be careful, Stuart." Ike reminded in a low voice.

"You too, Ron." Hermione looked much more fierce.

"She is so charming..." Stewart murmured, and he finally recovered after everyone from Beauxbatons had left.

As for Ron, he was still looking at his back in a daze.

Not wanting to pay attention to these two useless people, Ike took Hermione and went directly to have breakfast. When both of them were full, they separated.

Hermione was going to play with Hagrid with Harry and Ron, while Ike was going to the library to spend some time.

It's not that Hermione didn't invite him, it's just that Ike has never been very fond of Hagrid. In terms of character, Hagrid has nothing to say, but in terms of values, there is a huge deviation between Hagrid, who has giant blood, and others.

For example, Ike's attitude towards dangerous magical animals is very repulsive. He always puts those dangerous species that he has raised into the forbidden forest, which causes him a lot of trouble when he sneaks in at night to search for materials.

Several times in the past three years, he had to humanely destroy the "little cuties" that Hagrid called them and turn them into various potions and alchemy materials.

After secretly giving a portion to Snape, Ike felt at ease.

The banquet in the evening was more lively than yesterday.

The Goblet of Fire has been moved to the table in front of the professor's chair. At this moment, even if the food at the banquet is still novel and delicious, it cannot take the attention of the young wizards away from the cup.

Finally, when the dinner came to an end and the plates and food on the long table disappeared, Dumbledore stood up, and the auditorium fell silent.

"Okay, the results will be out soon." Dumbledore said with a smile, "While there is still a little time, I have a few more words to say..."

"After the names of the warriors are called out, I hope they will go to the top of the auditorium, then walk along the professor's chair and enter the next room..."

"There, they get initial guidance."

Dumbledore took out his wand and lit it in the air. The candles in the auditorium dimmed immediately, and the Goblet of Fire became the brightest and most conspicuous thing.

Suddenly, the blue-white flame turned red, sparks flew everywhere, and a tongue of fire shot straight to the ceiling, and a piece of burnt parchment slowly floated down.

Dumbledore reached out to catch the parchment, and read the name on it aloud by the light of the fire, which had turned into blue-white.

"Durmstrang Champion, Viktor Krum!"

"ah!!!"

"Krum!"

Applause and cheers swept through the auditorium. Everyone was celebrating Krum. Karkaroff was the most excited. He even stood up and raised his hands above his head and clapped hard.

Amid applause and cheers, Krum left the auditorium as Dumbledore said, and the enthusiasm of the crowd subsided slightly.

They were all repressed, waiting for Dumbledore to read out the name of the second warrior.

Everyone was not kept waiting long. Not long after Krum left, another piece of parchment came out.

"The Beauxbatons Champion, Fleur Delacour!"

"Oh, it's her! Her name is Fleur!" Seeing the most beautiful girl in Beauxbatons standing up, Stewart clapped his palms red with excitement.

"Calm down, calm down..." Ike and Terry pushed Stuart back to his seat with force from left to right. At the same time, Harry and Hermione also pushed Ron back down.

After Furong walked out of the auditorium with a smile, everyone suddenly became quiet.

Next up, it’s Hogwarts Warriors!

The red flames flared up again, and the parchment fell lightly.

Dumbledore caught it with a smile, but after seeing the name clearly, his face immediately became serious. He looked back at the professor's chair and then at the students below.

"Hogwarts Warrior...Ike Strider!"

"What!"

Everyone was stunned, and Ike was even dumbfounded.

Damn it, shouldn't it be Cedric!

"Mr. Strider, please go to that room!" Dumbledore urged again. Terry next to him also pushed, and Ike stood up with a confused look on his face.

But after only taking a few steps, he calmed down, put on a smile on his face, and waved to Hermione who was confused in front of the Gryffindor table. When passing by the professor's chair, she even waved to everyone.

The professor nodded slightly to show respect.

It was at this time that Xu remembered Ike's impressive performance not long ago, and the students of Hogwarts finally gave out loud applause and cheers.

"Okay, although there are some twists and turns, our three warriors are still selected." Dumbledore said, "I believe that you will go all out to support your warriors, including Beauxbatons and Dem

Strong’s other classmates…”

Suddenly, Dumbledore stopped and looked at the Goblet of Fire in confusion. As the flames changed, another piece of parchment flew out.

He subconsciously caught it and held the parchment far away. After a while, Dumbledore cleared his throat and read.

"Harry Potter!"
