After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.

Beauxbatons has always been headed by Fleur, so naturally she noticed Draco sitting there.

It was too dark, everyone was cold, and they were all dazzled by the Hogwarts welcome ceremony, so they naturally didn't notice Draco's presence.

After their performance, they sat down at the Ravenclaw table with a mixture of disappointment and excitement.

They like the calming blue of Ravenclaw, which suits them very well.

After Beauxbatons sat down, it was Durmstrang's turn.

Durmstrang is one of the three largest wizarding schools in Europe, and they are open about studying the Dark Arts.

Although Muggle-born students are not admitted, not all students hold this prejudice.

It has the most mysterious campus location and no one is sure where it is located.

It's said that visitors must have their memories erased with a Memory Charm to forget how they came to be there.

Visitors to Durmstrang cite the many magnificent sights within the school's vast grounds, particularly the dark, ghostly ships moored in the mountain lake behind the school, where students can scuba dive in the summer.

Although all the students who came to Durmstrang this time were boys, Durmstrang is a coeducational school just like Hogwarts and Beauxbatons.

Draco glanced at Karkaroff, just in time to see him look away in panic.

He probably heard about what the Malfoys did and wanted to test it but didn't dare.

Draco didn't look at him again, but at the Durmstrang students.

Should I research height-increasing potions? How can I grow taller?

Could it be that the feng shui of Durmstrang is good for health?

He did remember that a long time ago, Lucius had considered whether to let him go to school at Durmstrang.

But...was it fate between him and Harry?

Feeling Draco's gaze, some students from complex backgrounds danced with their sticks more vigorously.

You have to perform well in front of the young master!

It has to be said that Durmstrang's opening is full of masculine beauty. The tall and handsome men with deep eyebrows and features make the hearts of young boys and girls who are just beginning to fall in love beat wildly.

Their leader was Viktor Krum, the number one seeker of the Bulgarian national Quidditch team, a man even Draco had heard of.

As soon as he appeared, the eyes of many students who loved Quidditch lit up.

After it was over, the applause was noticeably louder than when Beauxbatons entered.

Durmstrang

"Please welcome Mr. Arthur Weasley, Director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, and Mr. Ludo Bagman, Director of the Department of Magical Games and Sports. Together they will be responsible for the running of the Triwizard Tournament during its duration."

Dumbledore invited the two men to his side with a smile and let the students recognize their faces.

"Dad?" Ginny had never heard her father talk about the Triwizard Tournament, but when she saw her brothers' expressions of no surprise, she knew that she was probably the only one who didn't know.

Oh, and poor Percy.

Suddenly she felt more balanced. After all, Ginny knew that her other brothers would sometimes discuss things secretly.

Although Ron seemed a little dull, Ginny felt that he might be the smartest person in the family.

Arthur smiled and waved to his children in the audience, feeling very proud.

Barty Crouch has resigned because of the Barty Crouch Jr. incident. With the help of people arranged by Lucius, Arthur has also successfully ignited his ambition.

The Weasley family is one of the most prestigious families in the wizarding world. Most people don't know why, and only the relatively ancient Malfoy knows a little.

It is said that the Weasleys are descendants of King Arthur.

So Arthur also has ambitions and aspirations, but they are not strong.

But why would he hypocritically turn away the opportunity in front of him?

The current Ministry of Magic is indeed disappointing. It is corrupt, abuses its power, and often wrongly judges people.

He often visited Malfoy Manor, and the children did not avoid him when they talked about him.

He really admired the child named Hermione, and he had a feeling that they would bring about earth-shaking changes in the wizarding world.

He tossed and turned all night, always feeling like he wanted to do something.

He suddenly felt the same high-spirited and confident feeling as when he just left school.

Arthur Weasley looked around the room, but ignored Ron who was whispering face to face with Blaise.

I don’t want to see it!

"Hogwarts, let us entertain our friends as well as possible. Musician? Please." Dumbledore looked at the small note that suddenly appeared in his hand, and said according to it in surprise but calmly.

He glanced around and saw that the students of Hogwarts stood up quickly. At the door, Filch, wearing a neat suit, pushed in the harp and played it proudly.

Several more students walked out of the crowd, saluted everyone, and used Transfiguration to transform their chairs into pianos, cellos, and other musical instruments, which blended smoothly into Filch's playing.

"Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,

Teach us something please,”

Everyone had stopped sitting according to their academy. When they stood up, they quickly adjusted their positions and stood according to different parts.

Beautiful harmonies accompany the beauty of the instruments.

Golden notes and words danced all over the venue as everyone played and sang.

Curious students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang reached out to grab them, and actually caught them in their palms, and then they turned into beautiful and tempting candies.

This is a candy with a little bit of Felicis Brut. The effect is not long-lasting, only one or two days. Draco prepared it.

Snape also took one, put it in his mouth and savored it carefully, a smile on his face.

“Whether we be old and bald,

Or young with scabby knees,"

The blazing flames formed a mighty lion, running enthusiastically above the heads of teachers and students;

The cute badger, woven with vines, strolled around leisurely;

The eagle soaring in the sky swoops down gracefully, its massive wings carved from ice and snow bringing a chill;

The giant snake lazily surrounds everyone in circles, and the seemingly gentle flow of water actually holds murderous intent.

"Our heads could do with filling,

With some interesting stuff,

For now they're bare and full of air,

Dead flies and bits of fluff,"

Although Dumbledore guessed that there would be a surprise, he still couldn't help feeling moved and relieved when he heard and saw it.

It turned out that his previous behavior was wrong, and Draco and the others' actions were correct.

This is Hogwarts!

“So teach us things worth knowing,

Bring back what we've forgot,

Just do your best, we'll do the rest,

And learn until our brains all rot.”

(You can listen to the Hogwarts school song in the movie.)

After the Hogwarts students stopped, they all looked excited and proud, their bright eyes fixed on the dean and professors on the stage.

The four headmasters all raised their thumbs, and even Snape had a soft expression and a smile on his face.

Not to mention Dean Flitwick, who happily jumped onto the table and performed an impromptu tap dance while the music was still playing.

The students of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang were shocked by what they had just seen, and at the same time, they couldn't help but have the same thoughts as their own headmaster.

Lost, lost.

How can we compare if they are all at this level?

However, the applause was due, and everyone clapped their hands spontaneously to pay tribute to the Hogwarts students who had just given a wonderful performance.

Arthur and Bagman placed an old wooden box inlaid with jewels on the central table, and everyone's eyes turned there.

"This year, the Warriors will compete in three events, which will be held at different times throughout the school year and will test the Warriors on many different levels."

The hall was completely silent, and everyone listened attentively to Dumbledore's words with bated breath.

There was excitement and ambition shining in their eyes.

"Three champions will each represent a school. We will grade them based on their level of completion. After the three events are completed, the champion with the highest score will receive the Triwizard Cup. The champions will be selected by an impartial judge, the Goblet of Fire."

With that, Dumbledore drew his wand and tapped the lid of the box three times.

The lid creaked and slowly opened.

Dumbledore pulled out a large, crudely carved wooden goblet, plain in itself, but filled with dancing blue-white flames.

"Every student who is interested in running for the Champion can write his or her name and school on parchment and drop it into this goblet," Dumbledore looked around and smiled.

"Tonight, the goblet will be placed in the foyer, and any student who wishes to participate may try out. Tomorrow night, the goblet will select the names of three students it believes best represent the three schools."

"Originally, I wanted to draw an age line around it to prevent students under the age of seventeen from being tempted. Anyone under the age of seventeen would not be able to cross this line."

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, he heard a series of sighs.

He winked slyly, and when he felt it was about time, he said pretentiously: "But I changed my mind. The Goblet of Fire will choose the most suitable candidate, so everyone can try as much as they want!"

"Yeah!" The auditorium was silent for a second, and the cheers almost blew the roof off.

Madame Maxime of Beauxbatons and Karkaroff did not stop them.

What if the Goblet of Fire chooses a first-year student? Wouldn't that be a win for them?

Dumbledore didn't say much, after all, there were two other friendly schools.

After a few brief words, he signaled that everyone could start enjoying the food.

Everyone was already starving, so they didn't hesitate to be polite, but they paid more attention to table manners than usual.

After everyone had filled their stomachs, they slowed down to eat the small desserts that had just appeared and chatted with classmates from the friendly school nearby.

"Hello, I'm Harry Potter." Harry looked at Viktor Krum beside him and greeted him.

"Hello, Viktor Krum." Krum politely introduced himself to Harry beside him.

Durmstrang still chose to sit in Slytherin. One reason was that they didn't know about the changes in Hogwarts and thought that only Slytherin would be more accepting of the Dark Arts.

Of course, when they saw the Hogwarts students sitting together, they realized that the rumors could not be fully trusted.

The four colleges are clearly harmonious, so why do people say they are incompatible?

The second reason is the selfishness of the students who are saints. It is not difficult to understand that they want to be closer to the two young masters, right?

Krum also agreed.

The fact that Narcissa was the new leader of the Saints was no secret in Germany, especially since many of his classmates came from Saints families.

Because his grandfather died at the hands of Grindelwald, he has no good feelings towards the Saints.

However, the Saints have changed a lot after the change of their master, and he is also very curious about the new Saint Master, the lady of the Malfoy family.

Although Krum has a rough appearance, he is actually a very gentle and considerate person.

Did he notice the extraordinary attention and... enthusiasm that his fellow Saints showed towards Harry and Draco?

So he sat down next to Harry, wanting to observe this person, but unexpectedly Harry greeted him first.

In fact, it wasn't just Harry. Krum could feel that everyone around him was secretly observing him.

He didn't know why, but their gazes were clearly different from those of the Quidditch fans who adored him.

Yes, I'm talking about Ron and the others. As for the reason... we have to say that it was Draco's voice that rang out after Krum took his seat.

"Is this Viktor Krum?" Draco observed Krum covertly. "He's indeed a good match for Hermione."

Everyone who was eating and laughing pricked up their ears. They didn't expect to hear gossip about Hermione, the calmest and most steady person in their small group.

No one wanted to eat anymore, they all listened attentively to the gossip and kept teasing Hermione with their eyes.

Hermione ignored it completely, remaining calm as always and showing no signs of shyness.

She paused after hearing what Draco said, then looked at Krum again.

This person? And her?

[After all, it was he who fell in love with Hermione at first sight and saw her shining points when Hermione was still an unknown nerd with messy hair and ordinary looks in the eyes of others.

He even went to the library just to say a word to Hermione.

But this is just Hermione and Krum from another world. As for this place, we just have to observe it for a while.

After all, our Hermione is going to be the Minister of Magic's woman, and not everyone is worthy of our Hermione.

Draco held his chin and thought wildly.
