Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 130 Anxious Students
The practice question guide has undoubtedly brought hope to students.

But the professors soon came to Professor McGonagall because of this.

More and more students are secretly using the study guide even in class—Professor Flitwick was the first to discover this.

When he discovered that his students were learning in a novel way, he seemed somewhat helpless and simply told them to put it away and never use it in class again.

He still had some prestige, so he could keep the students in line.

Professor Trelawney, who was in charge of the divination class, was even more vocal about this—she couldn't get the students' attention back even with the most terrifying and malevolent prophecies she could imagine.

Although the most dangerous prediction she made was nothing more than the death of a student—she did this every semester, and the students were already used to it.

In her classes, it was common for students to secretly use study guides to learn.

This forced Professor McGonagall to approach Levi again, hoping that he, as the initiator, could restrain the students' behavior, which slightly alleviated the trend.

Meanwhile, thanks to the guide, more and more students began to exchange ideas with each other.

Because of the leading role set by the fourth graders, younger students gradually began to follow their example.

Isn't it cool to turn hostility into friendship with your former rival? It exudes a mature, adult vibe.

Malfoy even approached Harry about this, offering to give him another chance.

Harry didn't hold it against him and shook hands with him to make peace for the time being.

He felt that his time was very precious and he had no time to waste on Malfoy.

If the other party could stop mocking Ron's family and stop causing him trouble, he wouldn't want to fight with Malfoy anymore.

Of course, most importantly, Malfoy is no longer a match for him.

Harry's perspective has changed, and his gaze no longer lingers on Malfoy, who is in the same grade.

Currently, there are only two goals that he acknowledges and wants to catch up with.

One was Hermione, who was in the same grade—Harry originally thought he could never theoretically catch up with her, but after having the problem-solving guide, he felt that he now had a chance to surpass her.

This highly efficient and engaging learning method gave him tremendous motivation.

The second was his fellow student, Cedric, a fourth-year student.

In theory, in practice, incantations, transfiguration, and spiritual will, he surpasses his existence in every aspect.

If Professor Levy is a towering mountain in the distance, so high that Harry doesn't even have the thought of climbing it.

Cedric is like the Five Mountains to Harry, a challenge he longs to take on.

Harry could tell that although Cedric didn't consider him a rival, he was subtly competing with him—they were both trying to see who could learn [Instant Step] first.

It was 5:30 in the morning again when the three of them met at the entrance of the auditorium.

As usual, it was half an hour of running, followed by half an hour of spellcasting practice. Recently, senior Joeveli added a dueling club tutorial to their curriculum.

In his 1v1 duel with Cedric, he could only use disarming spells and obstacles, along with physical movements, to dodge.

Unlike the intermittent pace of the Duel Club where you have to wait in line, Harry and Cedric can duel more than ten times in this half hour.

One is the best student in the fourth grade, and the other is a second-grade savior who defeated the basilisk.

At the beginning, Cedric won more often than he lost, and he was somewhat accommodating to Harry. But Harry's combat skills were so high that even Jowell was shocked—he was rapidly absorbing Cedric's strengths, improving every day or even every half day, and quickly catching up.

Now, the two are evenly matched, often going for several minutes without a clear winner.

Creating terrain with numerous obstacles to block attacks, while simultaneously using movement techniques and footwork to counterattack with obstacle spells, has become as natural as breathing for the two of them, ingrained in their instincts.

Thanks to his focused dedication, Harry has recently acquired a new title – the Duel King.

Aside from the fourth-year students who didn't have time to pay attention to him, he picked on all the students from the first to the third year—after being influenced by Professor Levy's philosophy, Harry even set different training goals for himself.

When facing first-year students, the goal is to defeat them in one strike and end the battle within five seconds.

To defeat a second-year student, you need to use precise control of the battle rhythm and decide the outcome within three rounds.

To deal with third graders, you need to create an advantage by using obstacles, and even use tumbling to win.

"Okay, that's enough for today."

As Jowell announced the news, Harry and Cedric stopped fighting, panting heavily.

They clean each other thoroughly—this is how they show respect to one another, and it has now become a habit.

The three walked towards the auditorium to prepare for their meal.

And they are not the only ones working hard.
As the start of morning classes approached, most students, with dark circles under their eyes, got out of bed, still holding their practice problem books.

Like a horde of zombies, they all headed towards the auditorium for their meal.

Nowadays at Hogwarts, there are practically no students who sleep in late anymore—everyone has their own goals, whether it's climbing the rankings, dueling, or striving for first place in theory or practice, and even fourth-year students are dating.

Needless to say, the older students study harder than anyone else, and they practically run when they walk. Their posture and aura leave the younger students speechless.

In such an environment and atmosphere, if you don't have your own goals and things to do, it's not just a matter of wasting your future—you'll have no friends.

We're all like-minded people now. When we get together, we either exchange ideas on learning and ranking up, or we discuss how to make spells faster and more accurate. If you bring up Wizard Chess at this time...

Sorry, we don't know each other.

They were so engrossed in their work that even the usually stern Professor McGonagall began to worry.

She saw the children's efforts and progress—but wouldn't this put too much pressure on them?

Exam week is fast approaching. Professor McGonagall is really worried that one of them will have a breakdown.

In fact, Professor McGonagall's concerns are not without merit.

As June approached, students of different grades began to experience varying degrees of anxiety, and a major fight almost broke out in the auditorium.

If Professor Flitwick hadn't been dining at the time and hadn't stopped it on the spot, the Great Hall, the last sanctuary of Hogwarts, might have been contaminated.

Professor McGonagall took this matter very seriously.

She had seen all the little wizards' efforts, so she didn't want them to fail because they couldn't handle the pressure.

So she went to Li Wei, hoping he could think of a solution.
