Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

The time has come to June, so that when Professor Flitwick announced the time of the Owls and Newts exams, many students were unable to react at once.

In the evening, Zhang Xu took out the exam timetable and began to arrange the review plan for the last few days.

Since he only chose a minimum of two elective courses, and one of them can be passed lying down. After all, he has been responsible for writing the questions in the past two years, so he has enough time to prepare for the final sprint of the ancient magic text class.

During the Ancient Runes class a few days ago, Professor Babuling kept Zhang Xu behind after class.

Professor Babling told Zhang Xu that he had very strict requirements on him. Unlike other students, Zhang Xu could only choose the newts course of ancient magic text in the next school year if he got an o in the owls exam.

Zhang Xu was stunned for a while after hearing this question, then nodded and promised that he would definitely get an o in the owls exam, otherwise he would not come to see her

As soon as Zhang Xu finished speaking, he was hit on the head by Professor Babuling with his wand, "If you can't get the o, you won't need to see me."

Zhang Xu was speechless, you have the final say on how beautiful you are.

Therefore, Zhang Xu, who originally planned to pass this class, could only strengthen it at the last moment.

Although the examiners of the Owls and Newts exams can be seen at Hogwarts on time every year, the fish in the pond and the fish on the chopping board have different mentality when watching the chef.

At this time, what the fish on the cutting board like most is to pull other fish into the water.

°°\w: "Next year will be yours."

Zhang Xu patted Luna on the head and said.

w\: "Go away."

Zhang Qiu didn't follow Zhang Xu's tricks, and slapped his paw off with a flick of his hand.

Since the invigilators entered Hogwarts, various rumors began to circulate among the candidates in the seventh and fifth grades. For example, a candidate claimed that their family had dinner with the leader of the examination bureau, and everything was negotiated up.

Zhang has always scoffed at such rumors.

One or two of these examiners are old fritters who don't eat oil and salt. Unless a certain examinee invites people to his home and asks the tenants to talk to those leaders, otherwise these old loach will have a way to beat the dinner table. The things promised in the past were fooled.

"You know Professor Gusseldamach class"

The night before the exam, Ron, who was dying in the library, asked in surprise to Zhang Xu, who was also struggling.

"I have dealt with you a few times before." Zhang Xu said while referring to Hermione's ancient magic text class notes, "At that time, because of the reform of the Muggle Studies class and the addition of exams to the math class, I and the wizard exam administrator The professors of the bureau have communicated for a while. At that time, I invited Professor Marchban to dinner several times through Neville's grandma, and Professor Marchban is a very principled person."

"math"

"To join owls"

"and newts exam"

"It is forbidden to speak loudly in the library, you all get out of here"

A group of students who were shocked by some bad news were finally kicked out of the library by Mrs. Pince.

The same is true for the culprit, Mr. Zhang. Among the people who can't be messed with, the librarian ranks first, so Mr. Zhang was also driven away along with everyone else.

When he came out of the library, Zhang Xu saw that it was getting late, so after returning Hermione's notebook to Ron, he also went back to the dormitory to wash up and sleep, so as to save enough energy to take the exam tomorrow morning.

Silent all night.

Zhang Xu got up early in the morning, put on his sportswear, went for a walk by the lake, returned to the dormitory, took a shower, and went to the cafeteria to have breakfast refreshed.

In previous years, Zhang Xu was still in the mood to watch the excitement of the candidates. For example, last year he, Fu Rong and Gabriel watched Zhang Qiu, who was preparing for the exam, nervously sprinkle salt into milk oatmeal instead of sugar.

But this year, Zhang Xu became more interested, constantly laughing at the embarrassing classmates at the dinner table.

It's just that some people's tense nerves relaxed after being laughed at, while some people became more tense, and almost poured pumpkin juice into their noses when they wanted to drink pumpkin juice.

At 09:30, the first exam began, and all the fifth-grade students were arranged to take the exam in the refurbished cafeteria.

After everything was ready, the exam started. Zhang Xu picked up the test paper and began to browse through it.

The questions are not too difficult compared with previous real questions. Most of the questions are incantations and wand actions that reverse the spell through the effect.

The spells involved in the test paper ranged from the levitating spell in the first grade to the stun spell in the fifth grade. Many spells have been tested for several years in a row.

Zhang Xu, who was confident in his mind, picked up the quill brush and started to write. He finished the test paper half an hour before the end of the test time.

In the afternoon, students preparing for practical exams gathered in the foyer for final preparation.

It’s just that there were too many people dying before the exam, and several students who practiced spells almost stabbed Zhang Xu with their wands. In addition, the exams were arranged in alphabetical order of names, so Ai Bo, who was beaten by Hannah, trembled. When the first one walked into the test room, Zhang Xu simply asked Peeves to watch out for him, and then he ran to the green belt next to the castle gate to bask in the sun.

Zhang Xu walked into the room as the last batch of candidates, and the examiner assigned to him was Maqiban.

"Do you need me to make it more difficult for you, Mr. Zhang?" March class said to Zhang Xu with a smile.

"I don't think it is necessary." Zhang Xu said honestly.

Maqiban just smiled and said nothing, then put a goblet on the table, and said to Zhang Xu, "Try to make it move."

The examiner said to let it move, Zhang Xu naturally didn't just let the cup rotate a few times, he used a rolling pin to control the goblet and did all the floor exercises in his memory.

When the goblet was firmly parked on the table, Maqiban showed a "you are sensible" expression on his face.

Although Zhang Xu said that there is no need to increase the difficulty, the examiner's mind is that you don't have to guess, and you will never be vague when it is time to add burdens to you.

In the next spell test, Zhang Xu had to cheer up and deal with the harsh examiner in front of him.

Fortunately, Zhang Xu played normally this afternoon, all the spells were used very well, and he didn't find any faults for the opponent.

The first day of the exam ended like this, but the tension of the candidates was not relieved, and some candidates became even more nervous.

In the morning of the next day, Zhang Xu heard that someone lit a lot of Ningshencao in the dormitory to treat insomnia, and as a result, the house elves who came to do housework in the middle of the night were all fumigated.Fortunately, the other house-elves reported to Professor McGonagall in time after discovering that something was wrong in the dormitory, so that the candidates in the dormitory did not miss the next day's exam after Madam Pomfrey's treatment.

In the next two weeks, the examination process will be similar, with written examination in the morning and practical examination in the afternoon, and the subjects with only written examination will be arranged in the morning and afternoon of the same day.

In the practical exam, the chief examiners seemed to be happy to put more burden on Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu was able to complete it seriously.

In the practice test of transfiguration, the chief examiner asked Zhang Xu to challenge the bonus item of human transfiguration, so Zhang Xu transformed into a fist the size of a pressure cooker, and then turned into animals such as Garfield and Snoopy.At the end, Zhang Xu also showed off a talking Animagus.

In the practical test of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Zhang Xu performed a performance of summoning three patron saints one at a time, but he could only control them to do some simple actions such as punching and kicking for the patron saints who were recruited by tricks. , too complicated movements are not enough.But no matter what, Zhang Xu still won this bonus item perfectly.

And in the practical exam of the Potions class, the examiner even took a breath of Zhang Xu's results on the spot, and then gave Zhang Xu a thumbs up.

Only in the practical exam of herbal medicine, the chief examiner let Zhang Xu down.And Zhang Xu guessed that the examiners didn't think it was a good idea for him to perform a live performance of making a bowl of mixed salad with herbs in the greenhouse.

When Zhang Xu and the candidates happily walked out of the History of Magic examination room, he saw Harry Potter not far away, standing blankly by the wall of the foyer, wondering what he was thinking.

Zhang Xu walked over, patted Harry on the shoulder, and asked, "What are you thinking, Harry?"

Then there was a loud shout in the hall.

"It's not good, this time Harry Potter was slapped to death by Zhang Xu"
