Felix turned his head away, not wanting to look at the Slytherin witch who was staring at him, cleared his throat, and continued: "I have analyzed with the professors, and you have two main shortcomings. One is that you don't master enough spells to deal with various complex situations. For example, magic flames--"

He paused and didn't continue.

"And the second shortcoming is the lack of practice, or actual combat. I'm not talking about the kind of duel game in dueling class where each other draws their wands and prepares in advance. I mean sudden crises, which are related to your own experience." "

There was a time when Hogwarts had a tradition of traveling for a year after graduation. It was probably similar to a few close friends traveling together to experience the magical customs in different parts of the world..." "

But because of the Wizarding War and in recent years, the Ministries of Magic in various countries have tightened their policies. If you want to go to a country, you must report in advance and obtain permission from the local Ministry of Magic, which has led to this behavior not being very popular."

Felix told them the history, giving them a general impression.

"In the next month or so, as Classroom 7 becomes more and more complete, you will be exposed to simulated dangerous scenarios to increase your experience. Not only me, but other professors will also be here to give you guidance."

"Of course," Felix thought for a while and said, "Professor Moody may have other arrangements. He prefers to test how you deal with danger in real scenarios. You should have some understanding of his character..."

More than one student made a bitter face. Professor Moody's rude personality and his boldness in class were well-known. The students of Hogwarts suffered a lot. Which student has not been pointed at and cursed a few times?

However, according to a student who wished to remain anonymous, although it felt bad when Professor Moody cursed himself, when he watched him roughly curse other people, he would get a strange sense of pleasure in his heart...

"As a candidate for the warrior," Felix raised his voice to bring the students back to their senses. "Or students who are selected to participate in the exchange and display the teaching results of Hogwarts, you will have the opportunity to come into contact with many advanced spells. The most convenient way is that the restricted book area of ​​the library will be open to you."

"You only need to register, and you can see all kinds of advanced magic books."

The students discussed in a low voice, their eyebrows were dancing. Felix even heard someone mention "dark magic", and he raised his eyebrows.

"I should remind you that the previous championships banned dark magic, even this one," he said uncertainly: "The Ministry of Magic is still in intense negotiations..."

"Does that mean we may face dark magic?" Harry asked in surprise.

"No, that's not it." Felix explained: "Warriors are not allowed to use dark magic against warriors. This is the bottom line of the Ministry of Magic. But Durmstrang proposed that when breaking through the levels, dark magic can be 'reasonably' used against non-human creatures - such as powerful and deadly magical animals."

"Vagardo and Ilvermorny also agreed. The controversy now lies in which dark magic can be used. The people in the Ministry of Magic are compiling a list."

"So, we can also use dark magic?" Collins asked, "as long as it's on that what list?"

"Maybe the rules allow it, but for Hogwarts students, there will be no professors to give you guidance in this regard." Felix said calmly. "I know some of you may be familiar with the dark arts, but after all, we have to consider the impact - if you use it openly, it will attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic and the outside world's questioning of Hogwarts' educational philosophy."

He shrugged: "It has been a few years since the war, and most British wizards still hate the dark arts."

Collins looked at him provocatively, "So, as long as you are not seen, it will be okay?"

Felix stared at her and smiled slightly: "You are right, Miss Foley, whether or not to use dark magic does not affect the judges' scores. But if you ask me, it is actually not necessary, and it may even be counterproductive."

He looked at everyone: "Many of you, especially the lower grade students, have not realized what kind of special treatment you will enjoy in the next few months - the Hogwarts Library is open to you, and all professors will answer your knowledge beyond the textbooks, including various advanced magic spells and theories."

"If I were you, I would definitely not miss such a good opportunity. This is very good for your future."

"But why do we learn so many profound things? We won't use them after graduation?" a student asked.

Felix looked at the others, who also looked like they didn't agree. He shook his head: "It seems that this is indeed a problem. Let me elaborate on it. When we were in school, we might all have a question-" "

If you can live well by just studying roughly for a few years, why force yourself to continue to delve into those profound and obscure spells and theories?"

"This is actually a very interesting question. Can anyone answer it?"

A Ravenclaw girl raised her hand playfully, "Professor, I know! I just like magic! I'm interested in them."

Felix smiled at her, "This mentality is very good."

"Studying magic can allow us to gain a prominent position and enter better companies, Gringotts, the Ministry of Magic!" Roger Davis said.

"Well, it's very inspiring. What else?"

"Others will be afraid of you, respect you, and dare not provoke you." Collins Foley said coldly.

"It makes sense...anything else?"

"You can do what you like." Hermione said.

"Very close, compared to my own answer." Felix said with a smile.

He glanced around, his gaze passing through the eyes of each of them, "I can't give you the correct answer, because there is no correct and unique answer. I can only tell you my understanding."

"What's the point of studying magic more deeply, including studying those obscure magic theories?"

"My opinion is that it allows you to go further than others on the road of magic, and it also naturally gives you more choices."

"You want to study magic? Of course, then be a scholar quietly, understand the mysteries of magic and areas that no one has ever touched." "You want

to occupy a high position and gain power? In addition to having a sharp and clever mind, the power of magic is also indispensable. At that time, magic is your tool to help you gain fame and power;" "

Or... money? It's not impossible, but I suggest you choose the right branch of magic. Alchemy and ancient magic runes have great potential. If any of you are interested, you can consider joining the 'Future World' company after graduation."

Felix blinked and smiled at them.

"There are so many things to say. Change your appearance? Transfiguration can do it; prolong your life? Potions can do it; travel around the world? Seek excitement? Explore mysteries and hunt for treasures... or just become an ordinary person."

"Of course, we may also fantasize -" Felix lowered his eyes, "let the world turn according to your will, and make some changes because of you."

The students fell silent.

Felix fiddled with his wand and said softly, "Yes, for some people, such as Headmaster Dumbledore, what bothers him is never what he can do, but what he chooses to do."

"It's becoming the Minister of Magic... what kind of candy to buy from Hogsmeade... maybe the latter consumes his mind more."

"That's the importance of choice - the most intuitive example is that every year there are students who get more than one letter of recommendation from professors. Obviously, these people naturally have more room for choice."

"Let's get back to the point and talk about something practical."

Felix raised his voice and said, "According to the latest news from the headmaster, this competition is different from previous ones. It will be conducted in the form of groups. Of course, the difficulty will be increased accordingly."

"Each school selects three people to form a team. After the three projects are over, the school with the highest score will receive the trophy of the competition."

He looked at everyone and said, "Students in grades six and seven, you will form teams randomly in the next period of time. In this way, you will develop a tacit understanding. Who knows who will become teammates in the competition. As for students in grades four and five, you can be casual and there are no requirements."

Harry, Ron and Hermione immediately leaned together.
