All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 557 Exam (modified, sincere thanks to the leader★Longlang★)

June is here, and for fifth-grade students, it can only mean one thing: the O.W.LS exam is finally here.

All professors no longer assign homework to them, and all classes are used to review the questions that the professor thinks are most likely to appear in the exam. Allen's ancient magic class has also suspended activities and is used as review time.

In this frenzied and striving atmosphere, Hermione was extremely busy these days. Under her plan, a review group was set up in the Harris training class. They were not afraid of the more practical subjects such as spells and transfiguration. Most of the time, everyone was reviewing such subjects as the theory of spells and the history of magic. Courses that require rote memorization are different from ordinary students. This is actually a weak point for the members of the training class. They usually spend too much time studying advanced knowledge other than the exam content, but the textbook content that should be memorized is not because of Lack of time and energy allowed them to selectively ignore it for a long time.

Hermione's notes were copied many times. After all, memorizing Hermione's condensed study notes can save a lot of time and improve the efficiency of review. Not even counting the training classes, there were many wizards in Gryffindor House muttering to themselves and reciting notes that Hermione had taken during her class at Hogwarts. Miss Know-It-All, who was tough-tongued and soft-hearted, was obviously not good at this kind of thing. Say no to others.

"The black market is booming among fifth-year and seventh-year students during this time," Hermione said as she confiscated the dragon's claw powder, brain-boosting potions and the like that were claimed to help people concentrate, refresh themselves, and stay awake. After pouring all the things into the toilet, he came out and complained to Alan, "Harry and Ron are stupid enough to believe that these things can help them get excellent in the O.W.LS exam. I will know after a little identification, I am in the Umbrella Company But having come into contact with a lot of these potion ingredients that won’t appear in the classroom, the things these fools buy are actually useless, for example, the dragon claw powder is dried Hu Meizi’s feces.”

"And Draco Malfoy, someone heard him bragging to Pansy about his father's relationship with the head of the Wizarding Examination Authority for many years..." Hermione opened the Charms achievement because she joined the Umbrella Company. Hermione, who is well-informed about management, does not believe that personal friendships will play a big role in such a large-scale exam. "However, his bragging succeeded in alleviating his own nervousness but caused panic in others."

Many wizards who are about to take the O.W.LS and N.E.W.T exams are very anxious, which affects many students who only have to take the ordinary exams, and also brings some sorrow about being separated, especially among many junior students and senior students. In couple groups, many junior students began to give small objects such as amulets to their seniors and lovers in the hope that the other party would get good grades.

Luna didn't know if she was influenced by others, but after seeing Ginny shyly giving Harry a pendant, she also stopped Ellen and handed the blood oath in the shape of a raven pendant that was kept on her body to Got him.

"You can keep it for now." Luna widened her already bulging eyes, and then without waiting for Allen to take it, she personally strung it on the necklace with the Deathly Hallows symbol around Allen's neck. The cute and serious look is like revealing the secret of hooking or molesting to others.

Alan enjoyed Luna's rare proactive expression of concern and blessing.

Unfortunately, at Hogwarts, although Allen had been assigned a separate room in the Ravenclaw lounge as the professor's private room, Luna had to return to her girls' dormitory, which made Allen even a little bit Regret that I returned to Hogwarts too soon.

The night before her exams, Umbridge stood nervously with a small group of elderly witches and wizards. No matter what she felt in her heart, facing these old wizards who had a transcendent status in the magical world, she could only talk to them respectfully.

"I said, I haven't heard from Dumbledore recently! Why, you still haven't found out where he is?" Old Gsilda Marchib, her face covered with wrinkles like a layer of spider webs, hunched over. he asked loudly, looking around in the foyer.

"We haven't figured it out yet." Umbridge said with a smile on her face, "But I swear, the Ministry of Magic will figure out his location soon."

"That's not necessarily the case," the little Professor Marchban said loudly, "If Dumbledore doesn't want people to find out, then you all have no chance! You should know... When he took the n.e.w.t exam, I personally Test his Transfiguration and Charms... the tricks he can do with his wand are like nothing I've ever seen before."

The arrival of the examiners made the candidates feel the urgency of time. Allen, who was sitting at the teacher's seat, noticed that most of the wizards who were going to take the exam had eaten faster. Everyone wanted to seize the last time to review.

Hermione, who was sitting on the long Gryffindor table, kept putting down her knife and fork, getting under the table to get her schoolbag, and pulling out a book to check a certain number or knowledge point. Beside her, Parvati silently practiced her spell, and the salt shaker in front of her was twisting rapidly. Neville kept dropping the knife and fork in his hand and spilling the marmalade.

"Stop reading, you can get all O's in the serial proficiency test n.e.w.t. Eat well, so as not to be too hungry at night and unable to sleep, which will affect your performance." Allen's vague male voice sounded in Hermione's heart, and she looked up Nodding to Allen at the teacher's desk, he put his books away and absentmindedly ate his last dinner before the exam.

After breakfast the next day, other students went to class, and the fifth and seventh graders were hanging around in the hall. At half past nine, they were called into the auditorium one by one. The auditorium has been re-arranged, and the four college desks have been moved away and replaced by many single desks, all facing the staff table at the end of the auditorium.

The first test was the curse theory, which was not a problem for the members of the Harris training class. When the huge hourglass on the table next to the invigilator Professor McGonagall had only completed a third of the way, many people had already answered all the questions. After quickly checking it again, they were the first to submit their test papers.

"This question is easier than we thought." Two hours later, Hermione found Alan in the hall, still holding the book in her hand. "I know my answer is correct, but I can't help it. Go check it out. But I don’t know if I should write about the hiccup-breaking spell. I seem to have written too much and there’s the twenty-third question.”

In the afternoon, Hannah Abbott, the prefect of Hufflepuff, was the first to be called in to take the practical exam. The rosy-cheeked girl with two golden braids trembled all over and lamented: "I knew it was like this, every day. I am always the first.”

If possible, Allen would like to change the order with her. It would be a waste of time to queue up. Unfortunately, his initials are in the opposite order to the other person's. Allen also heard that the other person suddenly had a big problem in the herbal medicine class. She started crying, whimpering that she was too stupid to take the exam, and wanted to leave the school immediately. As a result, she was the first to receive Madam Pomfrey's tranquilizer.

The other students who stayed behind muttered spells, practiced their wand movements, and occasionally accidentally poked others in the back or eyes.

Fortunately, Allen didn't wait long. About ten minutes later, Professor Flitwick called his name. The examiner who was assigned to Alan looked the oldest and the baldest. He looked at his notes and watched Alan approach from above his pince-nez.

After Allen used the silent magic technique to cast spells silently and without a wand, and demonstrated the floating spell, color changing spell, and growth spell, Allen heard the old professor whisper to Flitwick: "This class is not even close to the moment." There are many more famous students like Alan Harris and other little wizards who have performed well than the previous batch of little wizards."

The written exam on Transfiguration the next day was very difficult. The various complex spell models and theories made the young wizards dizzy. Despite the blessing of Hermione's notes, Harry still forgot the definition of the Transformation Spell. Fortunately, he did well in the practical exam. When he left the exam room, he saw Professor McGonagall tugging at the corners of her tightly pursed lips, as if she was about to smile. Harry swore he wasn't dazzled. Unfortunately, before Professor McGonagall's smile could unfold, she was interrupted by Hannah Abbott at the next table. She was so dizzy that she turned her ferret into a swarm of flamingos, causing the exam to be interrupted for ten minutes. Only then did people catch the birds and send them out of the auditorium.

When Slytherin's Draco Malfoy saw the ferrets he was about to transform into, he said, "Damn it, it's these damn ferrets again! They should all be fed to hippogriffs!" he was roaring in his heart. Draco maintained the necessary elegance on his face and quickly turned the ferret in front of him into a white coffee cup.

Draco no longer lost his temper as he did when he was a child. He maintained his pride as a pureblood and a member of the training class. After saluting the teachers, he strode out of the classroom.
