The Little Superman of Hogwarts

#269 - Chapter 269 [Soul Out of Body]

The exam questions for the second competition were almost entirely multiple choice or true/false, making grading very simple. It didn't even require manual grading. Dumbledore used a spell, and six quills danced in the air, occasionally drawing circles or crosses. Only four hours after the competition ended, the scores for all six papers were announced.

However, due to the time, the students would only know their scores the next day, as the teachers circulated them.

Although the knowledge points in the second round were interspersed from the dream world of the first competition, the results of the second exam obviously didn't completely follow the rankings of the first round.

The next morning, when all the students came to the Great Hall to prepare for breakfast, Dumbledore stood on the high platform and announced the results of the test.

"I will announce the scores of these individuals from last to first. Perhaps this is a bit cruel, but the Triwizard Tournament is not an exam, but a competition.

I think everyone saw yesterday that this exam paper has a total of 10,000 questions. The first 9,990 questions are worth one point each, and the last ten are essay questions, or short answer questions, worth 100 points each. So the total score of the paper is 9990 + 1000, which equals 10990.

Sixth place, Arthur, score of 521 points.

Fifth place, Eva, score of exactly 2500 points. Coincidentally, the score is indeed an integer.

Fourth place, Krum, score of 3782 points.

Third place, Potter, score of 4174 points..."

After announcing Potter's score, the entire Great Hall cheered. Perhaps it was because Potter's score was shocking, or perhaps it was because no one expected that Harry Potter, the underachiever, could score so high.

Ron and Neville, who were sitting with Harry, looked at Harry with shocked expressions, one on the left and one on the right. Their eyes seemed to say, "We agreed to slack off together, what do you mean by secretly studying?!"

Harry Potter shrugged, with a smug expression on his face.

The commotion lasted for two or three minutes. Dumbledore waved his hand, signaling everyone to quiet down.

Then, Dumbledore cleared his throat and continued to read, "Second place, a very high score—8361 points!"

The whole place was in an uproar. Everyone knew that someone would have a very high score, but they didn't expect it to be so outrageous. Harry Potter only got 4000 points, but this person's score is more than twice that of Harry!

"She is—Fleur!"

Fleur, sitting below the stage, looked slightly surprised, but in the blink of an eye, she restrained all her emotions and greeted the people around her in a friendly manner.

Ron and Neville were dumbfounded: "Merlin above!"

This score was indeed a bit scary, and what's even scarier is that if Fleur is in second place, doesn't that mean Cedric is in first place? Fleur got such a high score and still didn't get first place?

How much knowledge does Cedric have in his brain?

Cedric, sitting at the front of the Hufflepuff table, also showed a surprised expression. After the exam, Cedric thought he had done well, but he didn't expect to get first place. After all, in the first round, in the virtual world, Fleur was the one who did the best.

The scene was lively and bustling, and after about five or six minutes of discussion, the crowd finally calmed down. Dumbledore continued, "

I think everyone has guessed it. The first place is Hogwarts' Mr. Cedric!"

To highlight Cedric, Dumbledore added the title "Mr." here, which seemed very solemn.

Before Dumbledore could continue speaking, the whole place erupted in cheers. Everyone surrounded Dumbledore and then lifted Cedric up.

Everyone threw Cedric into the air like they were juggling a ball. Dumbledore finally used a [Sonorous] spell on his mouth before saying the last few words: "Mr. Cedric obtained an astonishing score: 9851 points!"

Wow!

An even louder sound erupted. Even Fleur, who was sitting in the front row, looked at Cedric in shock. If Fleur with 8000 points was just a minor freak, then Cedric's score was simply monstrous!

Fleur stared intently at Cedric, and as Cedric's body was thrown up and down, her head also bobbed up and down.

And in a position near Cedric, a girl noticed Fleur's eyes and frowned. This was Cedric's girlfriend, Cho Chang.

For a moment, Cho Chang looked at Fleur. Fleur seemed to sense something, and the two women's gazes clashed in the air.

It was like an invisible lightning bolt...

At the Gryffindor table, Cree was flanked by Hermione on the left and Ginny on the right, and the three of them were very interested in gossiping about this.

"Do you think Fleur will actively pursue Cedric?" Ginny asked.

"Very likely, unparalleled talents!" Cree said.

"However, if Harry and Cedric become a couple, that would be epic," Hermione said playfully.

That scene would be too beautiful to imagine.

The second competition of the Triwizard Tournament is over. So far, Fleur has received 11 badges, ranking first. Cedric has 4+6, a total of ten badges, ranking second.

Harry, 5+4, a total of nine, ranking third,

Krum, 3+3, six.

Eva, 2+2, Arthur, 1+1.

The top three have changed, and the positions of the last three are as fixed as iron, not moving at all.

Especially Arthur, the last place, it can be said that, so far, he has said goodbye to the Goblet of Fire. Although there are three more games, according to the current progress, the possibility is very low.

After the second competition, the entire Hogwarts fell into a strange calm. All the students learned a lot from this Triwizard Tournament competition. The underachievers learned the truth of the world, and the overachievers learned the knowledge points in the textbooks.

The third Triwizard Tournament is scheduled for the last day of the Christmas holiday. The first was a simulation, the second was a battle of wits, so it is not surprising that the third is of course a battle of strength!

Cree has prepared six big punches for the six participants.

The winter night was unusually quiet. Cree was sitting in the centaur's territory reading a book. He had already finished reading the Hogwarts books. These books were borrowed by Dumbledore from the other two magic schools and were densely packed throughout the cave.

At this moment, Cree suddenly noticed a trace of strangeness. There seemed to be an unusual magical fluctuation not far from him.

Cree used his X-ray eyes to look at that location.

A "humanoid" magical power...

"Hermione?" Cree was shocked. At this moment, Hermione appeared in a kind of soul form.

"Your superpower is so strong. I am now in a state of astral projection. Logically speaking, no one should be able to feel it except for ghosts," Hermione's current body is completely transparent, and her whole body is blurred, as if covered with a layer of frosted glass. If Cree wasn't familiar with Hermione's soul aura, he would even think it was an ordinary ghost.

"You're astral projecting?" Cree asked in amazement.
