"How about we let them stay at the station for a while? After all, Hogwarts traditions are more important." In the end, Professor McGonagall made a suggestion that, while not entirely reliable, was feasible.
After listening to Professor McGonagall's words, Dumbledore pondered for a while, and finally sighed and said, "Let's go with Professor McGonagall's suggestion, but remember to bring food to our new little wizards and try to soothe their emotions."
Hearing Dumbledore's words, the professors all breathed a sigh of relief. As Professor McGonagall and the others went to carry out Dumbledore's orders, Dumbledore sighed deeply: "It seems we need to reconsider and plan the departure time of the Hogwarts Express. Otherwise, not only will it be troublesome to arrange new junior wizards, but we'll also have to spend an extra meal."
Ye Feng was unaware that the Hogwarts Express's increased speed had caused Dumbledore a long-standing headache. He was currently busy with something, something very important.
Having been at Hogwarts for so long, Ye Feng hadn't actually seen any amplification equipment. Of course, perhaps they had a loudspeaker spell so they didn't need such things, but having no speakers at all was really quite boring.
Although there are phonographs and the like nowadays, they use film, and not only can a single film record hold a limited number of songs, but the sound is also very quiet. So Ye Feng decided to build a powerful sound system.
The banquets and such they held before only featured a few old songs, and the sound only came from a phonograph or something, so there was no surround sound at all. Therefore, Ye Feng decided to let them experience what 3D surround sound is like.
Actually, it's not difficult to create this thing. All you need is a memory spell and a memory presentation spell, which are equivalent to reading and writing into memory. As for storage, just stack the memory spells. After stacking them, storing a hundred or two songs is a piece of cake.
Of course, it also needs to include search and display functions, so it really takes some time and effort to get it done. As a result, Ye Feng didn't finish the main body until it got dark and they gathered at the restaurant. The sound system, or audio-visual system, hadn't been set up yet.
As the dining hall doors opened, Professor McGonagall led the new year's students into the hall. It was at this moment that Ye Feng suddenly realized that he had unknowingly become a fourth-year student at Hogwarts, and that he had been at Hogwarts for three years without even realizing it.
"Three years? I can't believe it's been three years since I came to Hogwarts. It feels like the Sorting Ceremony was just yesterday."
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Harry and the others seemed to realize something.
Three years—three years is neither a long nor a short time, and in those three years, they had already killed two Voldemorts.
Harry:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
"Two Voldemorts!!!"
Harry's eyes widened instantly upon realizing this, and it was then that he suddenly realized that, except for the previous school year, they had to kill a Voldemort at the end of each school year, and the previous school year...
"Ron, did we experience anything particularly thrilling or even life-threatening last school year?"
Hearing Harry's words, Ron tilted his head and thought carefully for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Would it count if Headmaster Dumbledore... blew it up with an Italian cannon?"
Harry: Gurgle~
"No, you forgot one thing. Hogwarts was almost overrun by that octopus monster that Ye Feng created. I'm not talking about the giant octopus, but the terrifying monster whose head was a giant octopus and who was only up to Hogwarts' knees when he stood up."
"Gulu~"
Hermione's words made everyone around her swallow hard, while Ye Feng looked at them with a puzzled expression. He had been thinking about something else and had only heard the word "giant octopus." So he said, "Want to eat giant octopus? It's been a while since I've had grilled squid. How about we make some tomorrow?"
Hermione and others: (。-_-。)
As before, the Sorting Ceremony ended quickly, and when Dumbledore announced the start of the meal, a large amount of food appeared on the table instantly. The only difference was that most of the dishes in front of the new young wizards were traditional English dishes, while the older students like Ye Feng had more Chinese dishes.
Putting aside the taste of Chinese cuisine, the sheer variety of dishes is enough to put other countries' cuisines to shame. After all, no matter how delicious a dish is, you can't eat it every day, so it's essential to change things up occasionally.
It has to be said that good food is a great cure for illness. The new wizards quickly relaxed as they looked at the delicious food on the table and gradually integrated into their respective academies. However, they never expected that the first person they would meet besides their professors would not be their classmates, but rather a senior named Ye Feng.
Before coming to Hogwarts, they had heard that the Immortal Boy was there, so they really wanted to meet him. But when they arrived, the name they heard most often was not Harry Potter, but Ye Feng.
Of course, Ye Feng's deeds cannot be explained in just a few words; they need to learn about them gradually on their own.
As they excitedly discussed their classes the next day and the information they had gathered from various sources, the frequent footsteps outside the door made them vaguely realize that Hogwarts might be slightly different from what they had imagined.
"Senior, isn't it said that only Gryffindor students like to go out at night? Why did I hear something in our Ravenclaw common room last night..." A fourth-year Ravenclaw boy was pulled aside and looked at the inquisitive junior before giving his answer seriously.
"Because Ye Feng told us that knowledge comes not only from books, but sometimes a small practice can provide knowledge that is not in books or cannot be clearly described."
At that moment, those words were deeply imprinted in the mind of the first-year Ravenclaw, and he also remembered the name Ye Feng. He was determined to go back and find out who Ye Feng was, the famous scholar.
Chapter 234 The Triumph of the Three Kingdoms
"Oh autumn!"
In the dormitory, Ye Feng rubbed his nose after having just sneezed loudly.
"Caught a cold? No, I'm a cultivator. I couldn't possibly catch a cold from staying up all night until midnight. Someone must have been talking badly about me behind my back. I think it's most likely Dumbledore."
Dumbledore: [?ヘ??]
As the saying goes, "You're just sitting at home when trouble comes from nowhere." Dumbledore, who was sitting at the dining table enjoying his breakfast with Grindelwald, inexplicably felt a sense of malice. However, the malice came and went quickly, so Dumbledore didn't pay too much attention to it.
Of course, Dumbledore didn't care about these things because he had something more important to do right now.
As evening fell, a carriage drawn by winged flying horses appeared in the sky, and the mast of a ship appeared in the Black Lake. These two scenes, which were rarely seen before, attracted a large number of Hogwarts students to run to the windows to watch.
"Hmm... a carriage with the Infinite Extension Charm, and... a ship with the Infinite Extension Charm. While it's a pretty good idea and would make the people inside more comfortable, it would also make them easy targets if something unexpected happened."
While everyone else was marveling at the flying carriage and the sailboat that sailed underwater, Ye Feng was thinking about something that wasn't scary at all, and he was actually considering what the effect would be if a missile were launched.
Ye Feng eventually came to the conclusion that if a missile were to be fired, both flying carriages and underwater sailboats would be destroyed, because they had no defensive capabilities whatsoever.
In other words, if no one detects the launched missile, or if they detect it but fail to intercept it in time, a single missile can render both of these devices completely unusable.
Of course, the boat and carriage would definitely be scrapped, and Ye Feng wasn't sure if the people inside would be scrapped either, since even he didn't know how many defensive talismans the wizards carried these days.
Because defensive talismans are cheap and very practical, they are still in high demand even though they can only withstand one attack at most when drawn with ordinary talisman paper. After all, there is a saying that you can only deal damage if you are alive.
If Dumbledore knew what Ye Feng was thinking at this moment, he would probably be so angry that he would strangle him, after all, the carriage and the boat were carrying two other famous magic schools in the magic world.
More importantly, they came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament and were guests at Hogwarts, but Ye Feng was thinking about how to blow them up. This was extremely rude.
When the carriage landed and the sailboat docked, Ye Feng and the others were asked to return to the restaurant, because Dumbledore had an important announcement to make.
What Dumbledore was about to announce was the Triwizard Tournament. The Triwizard Tournament was quite simple: the three houses would use the Goblet of Fire to select qualified participants from their respective houses to compete and determine the strongest.
However, the Triwizard Tournament is a competition between schools, and what schools compete on is nothing more than learning ability, practical skills, in other words, the amount and proficiency of magic mastered; the students' ability to react and handle danger; and the students' ability to think independently and solve problems.
And these things…
If it were the original Hogwarts, Ye Feng wouldn't dare say they would be guaranteed to win, but now...
Even without Ye Feng and the others making a move, with Hogwarts' current abundance of martial virtue, any student above the third year could participate, and while not a guaranteed win, they would definitely have a 70% chance of victory.
Looking back at what Ye Feng has accomplished over the years, it's clear that the challenges of the Triwizard Tournament in the original series were child's play for them. After all, they had already fought in the Battle of Hogwarts, so defeating Sirens (fishmen) would be a piece of cake for them.
As for dragons, they've seen them before, and compared to the giant octopus and the humanoid winged octopus from before, dragons are just the lowest of the low.
Of course, the other two schools that came were unaware of this, and the Triwizard Tournament has always only had three students participating, meaning that only one person from each school can be selected to participate.
As Dumbledore said, one needs to be able to go it alone and be brave, and there are countless people at Hogwarts who meet the requirements. However, in addition to this, there is an age limit, which is that one must be at least sixteen years old.
Unfortunately, Ye Feng and his team, including the Gemini, did not reach this standard, so they are technically ineligible for this year's top three competition.
However, that's not what they need to think about right now, because after Dumbledore announced that Hogwarts would be holding the Triwizard Tournament, the other two schools couldn't wait to make their appearance.
As the restaurant doors opened, a group of tall, slender young women dressed in gray-blue clothes and hats strode in, smiling confidently.
"Are these the students of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic? I wonder if I can transfer." Ye Feng murmured, looking at the group of tall, beautiful girls, because he realized that Beauxbatons Academy was entirely female!
"what!"
Suddenly, a cry of pain rang out, which made Dumbledore, who had run to take the hand of the female giant headmistress who was taller than Hagrid, quickly turn his gaze over. When he saw that the one who cried out was Ye Feng, and that Hermione and Ginny were tightly holding onto one of his arms behind him, Dumbledore almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Serves you right! You little brat, you've got to act like that.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch... You two, let go of each other, and I won't mention transferring schools anymore."
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Hermione and Ginny released their slender hands from Ye Feng's lower back and let go of him. As soon as they were free, Ye Feng immediately lifted up his arm and looked at the spot where the two had been twisting.
"Hiss~ You two are really ruthless, they're all bruised."
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Hermione and Ginny couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Although they were angry that Ye Feng said he wanted to transfer schools, they didn't really do anything serious. They just gave him a token warning, so at most they were slightly embarrassed.
"How about I rub it for you?" Just then, Luna's clear voice rang out, and upon hearing Luna's words, Ye Feng quickly sat down.
"No need, I'm fine now."
Seeing Ye Feng's appearance, Hermione and Ginny exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh.
Don't let Luna's seemingly gentle and weak appearance fool you. Although she understands Ye Feng very well and is very accommodating to him, she is actually the one who is the most ruthless towards him. This is because her feelings for Ye Feng are the most straightforward, and coupled with her personality, she is the most willing to be ruthless towards him.
Of course, when there's nothing to do, she's the one who listens to Ye Feng the most and finds it hardest to refuse him. You could say that if Ye Feng wanted, Luna could wash herself clean and offer herself up to him so he could take advantage of her.
Ye Feng and his friends' little actions successfully attracted the attention of the girls at Beauxbatons Magic Academy. In particular, the prettiest girl in the lead took another look at Ye Feng. While almost all the boys were looking at them with amazement and infatuation, Ye Feng turned his head away.
However, they only glanced at Ye Feng a little longer, because they still had a performance to do.
Yes, it's a performance.
However, even though these young ladies had pretty good figures and looks, Ye Feng was still so embarrassed by the performance that he almost scratched his toes. Especially when they reached out and made that "Ah~" sound, if he didn't have strong self-control, Ye Feng probably would have trembled three times.
Chapter 235: Unable to participate?
Although the entrance of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was a little awkward, it has to be said that their figures are indeed incomparable to Hermione and the others. Of course, this is also related to the fact that they are generally two or three years older than Hermione and the others.
After Beauxbatons Academy of Magic made its appearance, the students of Durmstrang Academy of Magic also appeared. Unlike Beauxbatons Academy, which was entirely composed of girls, Durmstrang was composed entirely of boys, and their clothes were more like those of the Russians, with almost everyone wearing felt hats.
In addition, each of them carried a cane almost as thick as their wrist, and they walked in by sticking it into the floor, each stick producing a dazzling spark. It was as if they were walking with the wind, leaving a trail of sparks and lightning.
"Wow, that's impressive. It even cracked the floor. I wonder if it's because of the force or the cane." Looking at the cracked floor, Ye Feng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
As Ye Feng murmured, the students from Durmstrang rushed to the small platform in front of Dumbledore, and after showing off a dance, they made a fireball gesture, using magic to blow out the shape of a large firebird.
Ye Feng: "..."
Seeing this scene, Ye Feng had a strong sense of déjà vu, which made him want to complain, but he held back in the end because the headmaster of Durmstrang was already hugging and exchanging pleasantries with Dumbledore.
It was at this moment that Ye Feng recognized the man who had come in with Durmstrang as Krum, who had participated in the Quidditch World Cup final and was called the strongest Seeker by the Gemini.
"What a small world! I can even run into someone I know. But thinking about it, it makes sense. There are only a few famous schools in the magic world, and most of the young and talented students come from these few magic academies, so it's normal to run into them."
With everyone from both colleges present, dinner officially began.
The only difference is that the row where Dumbledore and the professors used to sit now has more professors from the two houses and people from the Ministry of Magic. Also, the rows of tables where Ye Feng and his group were originally sitting, which were close to Dumbledore and his group, now have two more rows of tables for the students from those two houses to use.
Perhaps they were lucky, because the girls in the front row of Ye Feng's group happened to be from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This made Harry and Ron keep glancing at them, especially Fleur, who was the prettiest among them, and the two of them stole glances at her the most.
"Although Furong is very beautiful and has a quarter Veela blood, I think she probably doesn't have a boyfriend yet, so you two don't need to sneak peeks like this. You can do what I do and just look openly if you like her."
Harry, Ron: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
"No, Ye Feng, don't talk nonsense. We...we weren't just looking at her. We...we were observing them. Yes, we were observing them to see how strong they really were. It wasn't because we thought she was pretty that we looked at her more."
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, Ron hurriedly retorted, but even Ginny, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but shake her head at his appearance. Ye Feng also shook his head and said, "You think you can attract other people's attention like this? Watch me."
“Headmaster Dumbledore! I think this dinner, though lavish, is a bit too monotonous. How about adding some music?”
Dumbledore: [?ヘ??]
