The group swarmed forward, intending to overwhelm Chu Yang with sheer numbers. The fighting also attracted freshmen from other dormitories.
After learning the whole story, they resolutely joined the camp against Chu Yang.
At this moment, Gore and Crabbe once again retreated in unison.
Their intuition remained accurate.
Within a few breaths, a group of 11-year-old children were lying on the ground foaming at the mouth.
Chu Yang clapped his hands and smiled at the two of them, "If you don't mind, could you please take this trash with you when you leave? And please don't disturb my sleep, okay?"
Gore and Crabbe nodded frantically, like chickens pecking at rice.
Afterwards, Chu Yang found a bed by the window where he could admire the mysterious creatures at the bottom of the lake. He quickly took off his robe, crawled into the soft quilt, closed his eyes, and revealed a comfortable smile.
Gore and Crabbe carefully carried the boys out of the room one by one, afraid of disturbing Chu Yang's sleep.
While moving Blaise, Goyle momentarily lost focus, causing Blaise's head to hit the bed leg with a dull thud.
Chu Yang's eyelids twitched, but he didn't open them; instead, he showed an impatient expression.
Gore and Crabbe were terrified, and while trembling, they slowly dragged the person out of the room.
After the two of them tiptoed to close the door, Chu Yang smiled and drifted off to sleep.
Looking at the freshmen lying in the lounge, Gore and Crabbe, who were busy and sweating profusely, each found a comfortable sofa to lie down on with bitter faces.
The fireplace flames burned brightly, but they couldn't dispel the dampness on the ground.
After all, this is the bottom of a dark lake. If these freshmen just lie there until dawn, most of them will catch a cold.
Chapter 36 Professor McGonagall's Quiz
The next day, Chu Yang took his toiletries and left the dormitory, heading towards the washroom. As he passed the common room, he saw his roommates fast asleep on the floor.
Gore and Crabbe were still asleep, their snoring nearly shaking the ceiling to its foundation, but even so, those sleeping on the floor remained asleep.
They were all sleeping soundly.
"Good luck to you all. It's the first day of school, so don't be late. Hmm... that's going to be tough."
Unfortunately, no one could hear Chu Yang's taunts.
After a quick wash and dressing, he picked up his textbooks and left the dormitory.
Not long after Chu Yang left, the senior students gradually came out of the dormitory. Some of them were still yawning, but their eyes were instantly drawn to the freshmen in the common room.
They lay scattered on the ground like knocked-down bowling balls.
Wow, the juniors seemed to have had a blast last night!
"I really envy those carefree first-year students."
"But have they forgotten that the first day of school involves classes?"
"It seems they had a great holiday and are still enjoying it."
Does anyone know what their first lesson was like?
"Perhaps it's Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class?"
What about the second quarter?
"Professor Snape's Potions class..."
"Hurry up and wake them all up! Damn it, our college is going to lose points on the first day of school!"
The upperclassmen suddenly realized what was happening, especially the prefects. The thought of having to face the dreaded Professor Snape if something went wrong sent their hearts sinking.
What kind of situation is this on the first day of school?
The strong upperclassmen, in a fit of rage, used violence to wake the freshmen who were sleeping on the floor.
Poor Gore was still dreaming of eating delicious food when he was slapped awake by a strong and fat senior.
"Ouch!" Gao Er woke up with a start, covering his flushed face with one hand, staring blankly ahead, drool dripping down his face.
"Get your books and get to class right now!" The senior student glared angrily. So many freshmen were sleeping in here. Who knew how many points Slytherin would lose?
However, the senior students soon despaired, because all the freshmen who slept in the lounge last night, except for Gore and Crabbe, had caught a cold.
They don't even have the strength to stand up, let alone attend class.
The Slytherin common room was thrown into chaos, but Chu Yang, the instigator, had already gone up the stairs to the first-floor lobby, had breakfast in the Great Hall, and then leisurely made his way to the classroom.
The classroom was empty. Chu Yang was the first student to arrive. He walked straight to the podium and greeted the tabby cat on the desk, "Good morning, Professor McGonagall."
A look of human-like surprise appeared on the tabby cat's face, then it leaped into the air and transformed back into human form.
Professor McGonagall, dressed in a dark green robe, walked up to Chu Yang and asked, "How did you know it was me?"
Chu Yang smiled and held up the textbook in his hand. "Today we're going to have a transformation lesson, aren't we?"
"What a bright child! His insight and logical thinking are outstanding. A good wizard is one who is good at thinking." Professor McGonagall did not hold back her praise. She had already obtained enough information about Chu Yang from Dumbledore.
There was also the high hopes Dumbledore had for him.
While waiting for the other students to arrive, Professor McGonagall chatted with Chu Yang about the textbook content during their free time. She was then surprised to find that Chu Yang had memorized the "Elementary Metamorphosis Guide" perfectly.
Professor McGonagall was pleasantly surprised by Chu Yang's performance, but still reminded him, "I am glad that you can read this book thoroughly, but before that, you should first understand the theory of magic. It is very dangerous to rashly come into contact with Transfiguration."
Chu Yang certainly knew the importance of the basics. Just as Professor McGonagall said, he memorized "Magic Theory" before reading "Elementary Transfiguration Guide".
"Thank you for your advice." Chu Yang accepted Professor McGonagall's kindness and smiled. "If you are referring to Mr. Adebbe Wolflin's book, then I have indeed read it thoroughly."
Professor McGonagall thought she had misheard and asked in surprise, "That book is quite thick, Mr. Chu Yang. Are you sure you 'read it thoroughly'? If you say so, then I'll have to test you properly!"
“Yes, Professor McGonagall.” Chu Yang would not miss any opportunity to showcase himself, as these were related to whether he could access the knowledge that Dumbledore considered “dangerous” as soon as possible.
That knowledge could greatly enhance Chu Yang's abilities and help his counterparts in other worlds.
With a hint of anticipation, Professor McGonagall began testing Chu Yang's basic knowledge.
In the empty classroom, the two engaged in a question-and-answer session.
Soon, Hermione, another top student in the first year, also appeared at the classroom door, but she did not disturb Professor McGonagall's test of Chu Yang. Instead, she stood there and listened quietly.
Chu Yang was like a high-speed machine, answering every question Professor McGonagall asked without hesitation, without any extra time for thinking.
As time passed, the sounds of students making noise gradually came from outside the classroom. Professor McGonagall stopped the test and exclaimed, "Your memory is truly impressive. Most importantly, you not only memorized the knowledge, but you also fully understood it."
"You absolutely deserve Dumbledore's special regard, but remember never to be arrogant or complacent. Arrogance is a major taboo for wizards, and humility will allow you to go further."
"I heard that you asked Headmaster Dumbledore to open up more library areas in order to gain more knowledge. Decades ago, there was a young man as talented as you, but he went astray."
Chu Yang calmly replied, "Professor McGonagall, thank you for your advice, but no two flowers in the world are exactly alike, and the same goes for people. Two people who seem similar can have completely different outcomes due to their different growth trajectories."
"I hope so," Professor McGonagall said with a sigh, then waved her hand and said, "Class is about to start, hurry up and take your seats."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yang returned to his seat and sat down. The next second, Hermione walked in from the classroom door, her expression quite solemn.
She originally thought that the gap between herself and Chu Yang could be bridged through time and hard work.
But during the test just now, her mind was already a complete mess starting from the third question, let alone the following questions that she couldn't understand at all.
Chu Yang greeted Hermione when he saw her, but Hermione was engrossed in her book, looking sullen.
Students entered the classroom one after another. With class about to start, there were still quite a few students absent, the vast majority of whom were Slytherin freshmen.
Chapter 37 Gamp's Basic Laws of Transformation
Apart from Chu Yang, only a few girls from Slytherin sat quietly in the classroom.
After waiting for a long time, no new Slytherin students arrived.
Professor McGonagall's face visibly darkened.
As the school's vice-principal, having taught at Hogwarts for so many years, this was the first time she had encountered something like this.
"Does anyone know what's going on with Slytherin? Where have all the boys gone?" Professor McGonagall coldly swept her gaze across the classroom, and everyone immediately fell silent, lowering their heads in fear.
“Professor McGonagall, those boys seem to have been playing in the common room all night, and they all caught a cold this morning. The upperclassmen took them to the infirmary.”
Pansy Parkinson, with her short hair, stood up, a smug smile playing on her lips. She was happy to see those arrogant boys make fools of themselves, especially since her crush, Malfoy, wasn't among them.
“Thank you for answering my question, Miss Parkinson, but even so, Slytherin still has to lose 5 points.” Professor McGonagall, knowing the reason, looked displeased and gestured for Pansy Parkinson to sit down.
More gloating laughter came from all directions, making Pansy Parkinson, who had made a fool of herself, blush with anger.
"Quiet!" Professor McGonagall paced the classroom, speaking sternly. "Now, open your books and turn to the first section on the first page..."
Professor McGonagall began by explaining some basic knowledge about Transfiguration, mostly in a popular science style, to help students understand what Transfiguration is and its risks.
There are also some special feelings, such as what it feels like when a person transforms into an animal and their clothes and glasses become animal skin.
This unique feeling can only be experienced by Animagus, and it is a valuable experience for other wizards.
In addition, Professor McGonagall briefly mentioned the five exceptions to the fundamental law of Gamp's transformation.
Chu Yang summarized the five points as follows: It cannot transform anything other than food into food, but it can transform one type of food into another type of food, or increase the size of food.
