Chapter 327 First Course Before Dinner
"Participate in the battle for the University Quidditch Cup?"
Hermione Granger frowned, glanced around at her classmates, and whispered nervously, "Doesn't that mean some of us will definitely go to our own university?"
However, except for her, most of the first-year wizards on the ground are not as eager as she is. Many people whispered excitedly and looked at Elena and Huo Qi with anticipation, hoping they would reveal more details about this new Quidditch team.
"Everyone knows that for safety reasons, first-year students at Hogwarts are not allowed to bring their own brooms."
Mrs. Huo Qi looked at the young wizards and then Elena continued.
"However, with the spread and popularity of the Quidditch movement over the years, the school teachers agreed that basic traditional teaching from scratch may not be entirely suitable. Therefore, this semester, Professor Dumbledore will start with the professional Quidditch ball. The team introduced a group of flying brooms for the training and competition of the first-grade Quidditch team."
"As for the battle for the Quidditch Cup mentioned by Miss Caslana a moment ago, it's not something you need to worry about now. I have to reiterate again that it requires you to be able to defeat any university in the training competition. The official team only operates, to be honest, the odds of this happening are even slimmer than breaking Tatehill Tornado team's record for the fastest capture of the Golden Snitch. (It only took them three and a half seconds!)"
Saying this, Mrs. Huo Qi turned her head to look at Hermione, nodding with a smile.
Apparently, she just heard the whispered concern in the mouth of the little Gryffindor witch.
In fact, in the eyes of Mrs. Huo Qi and most teachers, this rule is just to give the young wizards a motivation to work hard, after all, compared to older students, the first grade is just beginning to develop. The physical disadvantages of the wizards are still too evident. If it weren't for the uncertainties of the Golden Snitch, their hope of winning could even be directly described as zero.
"Of course, not to mention the university cup competition, even the three words Quidditch are still far away for you."
Mrs. Huo Qi crossed her arms and with her yellow eyes like a hawk, she briskly swept over the excited faces of the students, and her tone gradually became more severe.
"And before that, the first thing you need to consider is how to be successfully selected as reserve members of the Quidditch team in the Friday selection. I will consult Miss Caslana's recommendation after all first-year students have completed the flight. First select seven young wizards to join the original Quidditch team, if there are outstanding students in the class in the coming weeks, I will also consider them joining the training of this Quidditch team."
"I will definitely be selected! And it must be the first in line!"

-0-0 - Little - says - This is a magnificent dividing line-
Inflating his chest with pride, he turned his head to look at Gore and Crabbe, and said softly.
After the first test flight in the flying class just now, Draco thought he was the best performer among the first years of Gryffindor and Slytherin, except for Elena.
But it seems he's not the only one who has the same idea as him.
At least not far away, Ron Weasley also has the same pride on his face. He, who has been following the Quidditch game all year, can mention at least 20 types of flying skills in ten seconds, in his opinion, playing smart is better than just flying. Obviously, it's more important in Quidditch.
Even Harry Potter, who had his first contact with the flying broom, filled his eyes with longing expressions.
I don't know why. Since first hearing about the flying broom and Quidditch, Harry has been eager to fly as if it were a desire buried deep in his blood, and the recent test flight even filled him with confidence.
For the first time in his life, Harry found a skill that he could perform without a teacher. This is like his natural ability. After flying to the sky for less than two minutes, he can start to imitate Ron, Draco, and others, and smoothly perform some fancy broom tracks in the air.
"Alright, in short, this is exactly what happened."
Mrs. Huo Qi clapped gently and looked at the young wizards who were still reluctant to disperse. "It's not too early now, and I will start dinner later. I suggest you hurry back to shower in your respective common room and put on a dry suit, the upper grades are almost coming to class."
With Mrs. Huo Qi's voice and the students' excitement gradually beginning to dissipate, the young wizards also began to feel the sticky and muddy sound of sweat-soaked clothes after an afternoon of exercise. The feeling of stuffiness, a desire for an immediate shower occupied their minds.
Hermione, who had little interest in Quidditch, felt relieved and couldn't wait to drag Elena in the direction of the castle, in accordance with the agreement between her and Hannah. On Friday, Elena, who needs two additional potion lessons, temporarily belongs to Gryffindor house.
That is to say, from the beginning of this flying lesson until the end of the flying lesson on Friday afternoon, Elena's navigation in the castle was solely under the responsibility of Hermione Granger.
"Go, go... I can even smell the sour odor on my body, which is really uncomfortable. I don't want to go to the library to read books in this sticky dress." (＞﹏＜)
"Alright! Alright! Speaking of which, when you take a shower, could Hermione put shower gel on my back again? I can't reach it myself..." ~ (o﹃o?) ~
"This is a beautiful dividing line-"

"This is a beautiful dividing line-"
"Don't you dare, last time you lied to me like that, and the result was a blister on my chest. And besides..." (#￣～￣#)
"I promise I won't do it this time, I swear! It's absolutely safe, you can help me again. Today I got hurt. Although it seems like I'm almost fine, I still feel a slight pain." (*︾▽︾)
"Finally, I'll believe you once, and after you shower, don't stand in front of me when I dry my hair! Sometimes you two are really annoying!" ᕦ( 一︿一+ )ᕥ
"I know, I know..." ᕙ(〃'▽'〃)ᕗ
Elena blinked sadly, and the little lock of hair on her head swayed cheerfully, obviously in a good mood.
"But my hair is unmanageable, and sooner or later you'll have to accept this fact-ay..."
Before Elena finished speaking, her foot was once again caught on a step in the middle of the stairs.
Hogwarts has many tricks like this.
For most veterans, skipping this special step has become an instinct, but for Elena, that staircase has been engraved in her soul, all the castle stairs seem to not matter much after all, they will move!
"Hermione, help me..."
"Haven't I mentioned that you take a little more time to remember it? Should I remind you every time?"
Watching Elena's roots suddenly dejected, the silly little hair helplessly shook in the hole, Hermione shook her head helplessly, with a smile on her face, took Elena's arm and pulled her out.
At that moment, a suit of armor at the top of the stairs emitted a creak and a jingle, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Shut up, you."
Elena raised her eyebrows and said angrily that, passing by the armor, she gave the boy a strong punch, of course, without the strengthening charm attached, otherwise, the armor might not fall to the ground. It would be directly embedded in the wall.
After today's flying lesson, Elena had already thought about it. After having her own broomstick, she would no longer walk to school.
She only needs to remember which floor each classroom is on, she can ignore the interference of the complicated stairs, pass through the hollow area in the center of the castle, and fly directly to that floor. Anyway, Hogwarts only stipulates that you cannot fly in the corridors, it doesn't say that you can't use the broomstick to go up and down stairs.
of course

"This is a beautiful dividing line-"
Today there's no need to consider these problems...
Elena followed Hermione through the portrait of the Fat Lady and entered the warm and cozy Gryffindor common room.
The round common room was filled with tables and soft armchairs. The fire crackled and burned as usual, but strangely, perhaps some kind of magic had been performed, it didn't give off a feeling of warmth.
And as Mrs. Huo Qi said, the upperclassmen had not finished their classes at that time, and only a small number of second-year students were playing chess or reading books in the common room.
"Thank goodness, this time I can finally enjoy a bath in peace."
The two climbed the spiral staircase back to their dormitory at the top of the tower. Hermione glanced at the empty common room, a pleasant expression on her face, and whispered.
"Yes, yes... we can bathe without being disturbed for a long time."
Elena nodded and said with the same excitement.
As she eagerly took off her sticky robe, she donned a dark gray pleated skirt and gray stockings and tossed it next to the laundry basket by the bed. The castle's house-elves would pick up and clean it that night.
After exercising all afternoon, now she just wants to relax...
