Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 356
Originally, Eisen was thinking of letting Harry and the others compete with the people from Zhengyi School who could use wands to cast spells, so that they could see what their shortcomings were and then make up for them accordingly.

But now after some observation, he felt that he could already see the shortcomings of Harry and others without even having to fight.

And the key point is that such shortcomings cannot be made up for in a short time for Harry and others.

All they can do is to learn as much basic knowledge as possible during this school year, as Eisen suggested.Then integrate these learned knowledge into yourself and turn it into your own thing.

In the future, they will return to Hogwarts to continue their studies. If they are willing, they can continue to work hard and develop according to the template of the senior students here.

But, this is bound to be a difficult process.

Of course, no matter how you say it, it is indeed a good thing that Dumbledore restarted the exchange student program to allow students to come to Zhengyi School to study, broaden their horizons, and expand their horizons.

……

After temporarily clearing the distracting thoughts in his mind, Eisen turned his eyes, scanned the surrounding teachers, and then looked in the direction of the ring again.

Regardless of the level of strength between the students of Hogwarts and the students of Zhengyi School, he suddenly thought of a question, that is, what would be the comparison of strength between the teachers?
For example, who is more powerful than Professor Flitwick, Professor Snape, Professor McGonagall and others from Hogwarts, compared with Zhang Mingwen, Yue Congshan and others from Zhengyi School?

Let’s first compare the principals of both parties, Dumbledore and Zou Zunian.On the surface, Dumbledore is obviously stronger, because he is recognized as the greatest wizard of our time.

But Zou Zunian, just because he is unknown internationally, we cannot say that he is not as powerful as Dumbledore, right!If you have to say who is stronger between the two, Eisen feels that unless the two fight face to face, no one will know the outcome.

But there is one thing, it seems that we can see a little bit of Zou Zunian's reality.That is Zhang Mingwen once said that Dumbledore wanted Zou Zunian to help break the blood pact many years ago.

Regardless of what interactions they had or what happened back then, from this point of view, it shows that Dumbledore at least recognized Zou Zunian's ability.

As for the comparison of strengths between other professors and teachers, it’s hard to say for Aisen.Of course, if it were him, then he was sure that he could also "stand out from the crowd" here.

"Zhang, the competition between the sixth-grade students seems to be taking a little longer?" Aisen asked after clearing his mind of unnecessary thoughts.

"That's right, sixth-grade students have more balanced methods in actual combat, and the gap between them is not as obvious as those below fifth-grade students, so the competition will take longer." Zhang Mingwen looked at it. The figures moving around on the stage nodded with satisfaction.

"By the way, when did your school start the duel competition at the end of each month?" Aisen's heart moved, and a look of curiosity appeared on his face, "I mean, in which year did this start?"

"Time? It may have been decades." Zhang Mingwen withdrew his gaze, looked at Aisen and then pondered, "I remember that when I was still in school here, there was already such a form of competition."

"Is that so?" Aisen looked surprised.

If this is the case, then compared to the British wizarding world, the adult wizards here are probably much stronger overall.

"How about it? Do you plan to implement such a duel competition at Hogwarts after you return?" Zhang Mingwen said with a smile on his face.

"I have this idea, but I have to discuss it with Dumbledore on how to do it." Eisen looked thoughtful.

In fact, the duel club he was responsible for reopening at school with Snape and others was pretty good.Every Monday, students can be taught new spells and trained on their practical abilities.

However, generally speaking, dueling classes at Hogwarts are mainly taught by professors.Unlike here, a ring is set up directly and students from all grades can go up and compete directly.

The key is that the number of championships won by the students here is not only linked to the number of places they can enter the Zhengyi Sect for further study in the future, but they can also be exchanged for some treasures from the school after graduation.

This method of motivating students will definitely not work in Hogwarts School.As Eisen said, you probably have to discuss it with Dumbledore on how to do it specifically.

"Yes, as the principal of Hogwarts School, Dumbledore needs to think carefully." Zhang Mingwen said with a smile on his face, lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the guy over there is named Voldemort. Is this guy resurrected?"

hiss--

Aisen couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and then asked in a low voice: "Not many people on our side know the news, how did you know it? Does it mean that everyone on your side knows it?"

"No!" Zhang Mingwen waved his hand, "There used to be a teacher in our school who studied Qimen Dunjia in depth, and he told us. Don't worry, only the teachers in the school know about it."

"Teacher of the Qi Men Dun Jia class?" Aisen's eyes showed suspicion.

"I have retired now. I have been compiling a new book in the Star Observation Tower in recent years, and it was just completed recently." Zhang Mingwen revealed some vague words.

"Qi Men Dun Jia, did you learn such news through divination?" Eisen nodded. Although he was surprised, he did not ask for the teacher's specific information.

"That's right!" Zhang Mingwen nodded, "But not everyone will get some information through divination."

"I know, our Hogwarts school also has a divination teacher." Eisen seemed to have thought of something, and continued after a pause, "Although her predictions are sometimes unreliable, she did successfully predict wizards." A major event in the world. Even Voldemort, the Tom Riddle I told you before, she was right about who he would defeat.

According to what she said in the divination class, if a person does not have a special 'sight', there is no way to predict the future through divination. "

"Oh? That's really a pity. The divination teacher in your school must have some special talents. If she comes to us to learn Qimen Dunjia, she will definitely be able to master her talents." Zhang Mingwen said, his face There was a look of regret on his face.

Uh--, hearing what Zhang Mingwen said, Aisen was immediately choked.But thinking about it carefully, he realized that maybe it was exactly what the other party said.

Now that he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized that the Divination class at Hogwarts was actually of little use.Because of the divination class at Hogwarts, Dumbledore, as the principal, originally planned to cancel it.

However, out of courtesy, Dumbledore went to the Hog's Head pub to meet Sybill Trelawney.

Eisen estimated that Dumbledore met her partly because she was the great-great-granddaughter of Cassandra Trelawney, the real prophet.

As a result, after such a meeting, by coincidence, the talent Sybill Trelawney inherited from Cassandra Trelawney suddenly came into play, and then she made an astonishing prophecy about Voldemort.

In this way, under Dumbledore's instruction, she became the Divination professor at Hogwarts.

Afterwards, the situation was very simple.

Professor Trelawney has been relying on her inherited talent to play some tricks in Hogwarts School, often making unreliable predictions that a certain student will encounter disaster and misfortune.

Because of this, many students, including Professor McGonagall, thought she was a liar.

"In your Qimen Dunjia class, can the students master the divination skills through studying?" After coming back to his senses, Aisen asked curiously.

"Well -, most of the graduates of Zhengyi School do know some methods of prediction and divination, but without talent in this area, their achievements in divination and prediction will be very average." Zhang Mingwen pondered for a moment, and then slowly explained.

"The achievements are average, that is to say, they can still do it without involving calculations and divination of complex and secret information, right?" Eisen's eyes changed slightly and he asked.

"Let's put it this way, graduates of Zhengyi School can almost make a rough estimate of some things in the secular world. If they make predictions about things related to monks and wizards, the effect will be at least half, or even have no effect at all. ." Zhang Mingwen said calmly.

"Then what if there is a major event that is about to happen in the wizarding world, can it be predicted by divination?" Eisen's eyes moved, thinking of the retired teacher he mentioned earlier.

"It's very vague. Basically, it's impossible to divination in all likelihood." Zhang Mingwen shook his head, "However, if you have the talent in this area, then the role of Qimen Dunjia will be very obvious."

Eisen nodded thoughtfully, although he didn't say anything more, he was quite emotional in his heart.

It can be seen from this conversation that there are actually quite a lot of differences between divination in the Eastern and Western wizarding worlds.

To put it simply and crudely, divination in the Western wizarding world is an industry that relies purely on talent.As for divination in the Eastern wizarding world, in addition to the very important role played by talent, there is also a systematic knowledge that can be learned.

Just like what Zhang Mingwen said, a student without talent can master certain methods of calculation and divination by learning Qimen Dunjia after graduation.

It's hard to say whether this method of calculation and divination can be useful for one or two reasons, but if he can really learn this method, at least it is real.

But what about Hogwarts?Among all the students who have graduated from Hogwarts, who has learned truly effective divination by studying the knowledge of divination classes?
If most students really learned divination, regardless of whether they could master one point or two points, in that case, why did Dumbledore ever have the idea to cancel the divination class?

The conclusion is obvious, even Dumbledore thinks that learning that knowledge is useless!
As for Arithmancy, another divination course at Hogwarts.Well, while Dumbledore never considered canceling the class, its presence at Hogwarts is almost non-existent.

This shows that this course seems to be relatively useful, but it does not seem to be of much use.

"What? Do you want to know about Qimen Dunjia?" Seeing Aisen's attitude, Zhang Mingwen suddenly asked.

"Qi Men Dun Jia?" Aisen said and was about to refuse, but then an idea flashed and he laughed, "Okay, I will study when I have time!"

Zhengyi School's Qi Men Dun Jia contains knowledge related to astrology, numerology, and divination. The content involved is nothing more than calculation, divination, and so on.

Originally, Eisen was not very interested in this knowledge, but he suddenly thought that he was going to create a real Laplace Demon.

Although he is still far from success now, it does not stop him from daydreaming.In his opinion, after the real Laplace Demon is created, it must have the ability to match the name.

The predictive divination in Qi Men Dun Jia involves predicting the future, and some of the concepts may be useful to Aisen.

"Okay, it's almost time. It looks like the sixth-grade competition is about to end." Zhang Mingwen pointed to the ring and suddenly spoke.

Looking up, Eisen looked surprised when he saw the scene on the ring.

I saw a slender girl who looked like she was wearing close-fitting soft armor, pressing down on a Buddhist-looking boy and beating him violently.

The girl had silver hair shawl and a face as cold as ice, which gave people the impression that she was not easy to mess with.On the other hand, the boy who looked very Buddhist had a smile on his face, as if he didn't care about anything.

However, with the rhythm of the girl's attack, the smile on the Buddhist boy's face slowly turned into a bitter smile.

"Get out of the sheath!" The girl jumped into the air, spun a few times in the air, and continued to send out powerful attacks with her legs. Then she pulled away and shouted loudly.

I saw a wand stuck in her waist, quickly coming out with her movements.Then, an emerald green sword wrapped around her wand grew out of thin air.

Afterwards, the blade expanded rapidly, turning into a sword light tens of meters long and piercing through it.

"Do all the students in your school have this kind of fighting style?" Eisen's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but look at Zhang Mingwen who was standing aside.

"This -, on our side, the role of the wand is not limited to casting spells." Zhang Mingwen said with a straight face, "Moreover, although the contest between them is a contest, it is not a real actual battle after all. Therefore, It’s more or less—well, it’s meant to be playful.”

"A joke?" Eisen asked doubtfully.

"They have been fighting with their classmates since the first grade. They have fought for several years and dozens of times. They have long been familiar with each other's strength. Therefore, using some unexpected methods may be more effective. "Zhang Mingwen explained.

"If that's the case, can such a contest improve their actual combat capabilities?" Aisen showed a thoughtful expression.

"Didn't I say it before? We use this method not to increase their actual combat experience, but to make them familiar with their own strength and maintain the state of competition." Zhang Mingwen said with a meaningful look in his eyes Glanced at him.

Well, maybe if the graduates of Zhengyi School want to increase their practical skills, there may be Auror training here similar to that in the UK.

boom--

A huge sound came out, and the entire arena was filled with a layer of fog.When the fog dissipated, the Buddhist-looking boy lay on the ring with a bitter look on his face.

On the other hand, the silver-haired girl stood on the ring with a calm expression.

"Is the sixth grade contest over?" Looking at this scene, Eisen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That's right, the student standing on the stage is called Zeng Yanan. In the past few years, he has basically won the No. 1 ranking in the same grade competition every time he participated. His own strength is relatively solid!" Zhang Mingwen introduced one time.

"The next thing is the competition between the seventh graders!" Eisen nodded and changed the topic, looking at a certain position in the stands.

"Yes, if nothing else happens, the seventh grade competition will probably end much sooner." Zhang Mingwen said with a smile on his face.

"Oh?" Eisen looked over in surprise.

He originally thought that due to the similar strength, the competition between the seventh grade students should be more anxious, but he did not expect that Zhang Mingwen actually said that it would end faster.

"You'll know after you read on!" Zhang Mingwen pointed in the direction of the ring and said with a smile.

After Zou Zunian announced that the seventh grade students would take the stage, the competition between the last batch of students officially began.And next, Eisen understood what Zhang Mingwen said before.

I saw a tall, thick and sturdy young man standing in the center of the ring.

He was wearing a rather loose-looking black training suit, staring ahead with piercing eyes, with a serious expression on his face, which seemed to hide a kind of temperament.

After the contest began, he clasped his hands together and pulled hard, and a crimson spear was pulled out of thin air.At the same time, some runes and secret spells began to faintly flow on his black training clothes, making his whole person even more magical.

Of course, this appearance did not surprise Eisen. What surprised him was that every opponent who came on stage basically did not go through twenty rounds in the hands of this young man before they were defeated one after another. .

A student stepped onto the ring, both sides clasped their fists in salute, and then the fight began, and the fight ended after a while.

Time passed bit by bit, and each student stepped onto the stage, all ending like this.

This situation gave Eisen the feeling that the young man guarding the ring on the stage seemed to be better than other students in the same grade.

The young man held a big gun and swung it around like a general fighting on the battlefield. Every move he made was full of force, making it difficult for others to resist.

In addition, the big gun seemed to have the ability to cast spells as it flipped and jumped. From time to time, spells would jump next to it, inspiring various attack and defensive moves.

Until the end of the competition in seventh grade, the boy maintained a huge advantage.

"How was it?" After the contest, Zhang Mingwen looked at Aisen and raised his eyebrows.

"Awesome!" After coming back to his senses, Eisen looked at Zhang Mingwen's posture and uttered two words.Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and frowned slightly, "By the way, the seventh-grade champion just now - Zhang Xingyi, I saw the spell on his body when he touched it, it seemed -"
