Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 150 This World is Too Crazy
"So, the reason why the students performed so poorly in Potions class is largely due to the fact that I didn't assign enough homework?"

Come here.

They've basically lost all the face they could have lost.

At this moment, Snape seemed to have nothing to lose and started discussing teaching methods with Levi.

"Of course, that's part of the reason."

Looking at the pensive Snape, and thinking that he might give the young wizards more homework before they went home for the holidays, Levi found it somewhat amusing.

Despite his already poor reputation, Snape was still quite popular and beloved in Slytherin.

I wonder what the students will think after he does this?
Snape clearly hadn't considered this, but even if Levi had reminded him, he probably wouldn't have cared at all.

The disastrous failures in education were too much for him to bear.

The rumors spread by the young wizards were especially unbearable for him to hear.

Now every student talks about Professor Levi, Professor Levi, and the word 'Snape' is only mentioned when they are saying something bad about him.

Snape used to not care at all, because he firmly believed that it was the little trolls who were stupid.

But now, because of Li Wei's arrival, the students' grades have become drastically different—doesn't this make it seem as if his potions teaching has really gone wrong?
Snape was indeed starting to doubt himself.

After leaving Li Wei's office, he had made up his mind.

Starting next semester, he will also increase the amount of homework he assigns. For each potion class, students must memorize the recipe and production process in advance and write it down on paper!
So, during the end-of-term party, a week when students were completely relaxed, they suddenly received devastating news.

Given the students' poor Potions grades, all students will have double the Potions homework for the summer. Snape announced this through the common room bulletin board and included all his requirements therein.

In addition to memorizing some potion recipes in advance, there is also a strict requirement of the practice guide—in the [Potion Studies] branch of training that is later developed in the guide, each student must complete a knowledge quiz with an accuracy rate of no less than 50% in the [Speed ​​Ranking] during the summer vacation.

So from early morning, the students' wails pierced through the common room and spread throughout Hogwarts.

The Slytherin students were especially bewildered.

What's wrong with this world?
Professor Levy, who loves assigning homework, stopped assigning homework during the summer vacation, but Professor Snape followed suit.

Are they still asleep?

If the students knew Snape's plans for the new school year, they would probably be even more devastated.

But besides lazy students, there are also students who become diligent after receiving positive feedback.

Harry and Cedric had already found Jowell after the first week of exams, wanting to learn new material from him.

After a day of freedom, their understanding of Shunpo has reached a new level. Although they can no longer control it at will, they can use it skillfully most of the time.

This was significantly faster than Joe Verri had predicted.

Both of them were proud of this, and at the same time, they were also looking forward to whether their teaching content would change after they learned Shunpo.

Whether it's the Instant Step or the Three Talents Formation, what flows from Professor Li Wei is always exceptionally powerful, and they yearn to learn more.

Seeing this, Joe Weili, who had originally intended to give them a break, started training them again the next day, still assembling at 5:30 in the morning.

After their morning run, Qiao Weili looked at the two energetic individuals and nodded in satisfaction.

"Now that you've basically mastered Instant Step, I'll teach you another interesting spell."

"Is this also one of the professor's own incantations?"

Harry and Cedric both perked up.

"Does it count—I guess you could say that, though." Jovelley smirked. "Actually, the professor didn't create many spells himself; it didn't mean much to him. As long as it met his needs, one spell with the same function was enough."

"Today, I value the practice aspect of this spell more than what you can do with it—"

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, rustling the large trees along the Black Lake.

The two followed Jowell's gaze and saw him raise his wand, pointing it at the lush green leaves above his head.

A dozen green leaves drifted down from the tree and landed beside him. Then, in the next moment, they all transformed into sharp silver cones, which plunged into the soil with a whooshing sound, leaving only the tips on the ground.

Seeing this astonishing power, both Harry and Cedric were somewhat alarmed.

"This spell has no name—it's more of a magical combination than a spell."

Jowell looked at the two of them encouragingly.

Can you explain how it works?

"It seems a bit like the spell Professor Flitwick used during the large-scale dueling class?"

"Levitation Charm - Polymorph - Slicing Charm?"

Harry and Cedric answered in turn.

"good."

Joe Willy nodded and continued the demonstration.

"To achieve what I demonstrated, with your current level of skill, it should take less than a month, but—"

A strong wind swept across the lawn, carrying away fine grass seeds.

Jowell waved his wand again, and at the same time, a wooden target materialized a meter in front of him.

The next moment, hundreds of tiny grass seeds transformed into countless sharp points, sweeping across the target like a torrential downpour, instantly piercing it into a sieve.

Hearing the dense cutting sounds around them, Harry and Cedric were stunned—unlike the magic the professors demonstrated in dueling class, what Jowell was showing was essentially a pure killing technique.

They appear harmless and lack any flashy appearance, yet any starlight that falls upon them will undoubtedly pierce their bodies, and under the effect of the cutting curse, completely sever their skin and blood vessels.

"scared?"

Harry and Cedric nodded blankly—they suddenly realized something at that moment.

Even the seemingly gentlest senior brother, Joe Verri, could easily kill all of them if he wanted to.

“There’s nothing to be afraid of. This spell looks powerful, but there are actually many ways to resist it. I don’t want you to use it to hurt people. This is just for you to practice combining spells.”

"This spell seems to be particularly effective against the Ironclad Spell?"

Cedric couldn't help but remark, "This spell doesn't look like it's easy to resist."

Such a powerful spell, yet it doesn't even have a name; it's just something to practice?

"Yes, but since you can think of this problem, you can naturally find a solution. However, this is not what you need to learn right now."

Joe Willy continued to set goals for the two.

"If maximizing the effect of low-level spells is the first stage of basic spellcasting, then what you are about to do is begin the second stage—try to combine these basic spells to unleash power comparable to or even far exceeding that of intermediate spells."
