Second Match Date (Yesterday's Make-Up Release)

The students below pretended not to hear, and the Weasley twins fired even more fiercely. Kurama even threw a giant Squid Smoke Bomb towards the students of the Mahoutokoro, making the entire hall filled with smoke, and the group of people from the Mahoutokoro turned into the same kind of thing as Wagadu.

Malfoy seized the opportunity to toss over a bag of Galleon, asking how much it cost and saying he wanted to buy a few to take home, as his cotton harvest was due. He even gestured with his hands as if cracking a whip, while Goyle and Crabbe made "crack crack crack" sounds with their mouths.

However, when the students from the Mahoutokoro saw that Su Yu was also present, they suppressed their anger and coldly stared at the Slytherin students, giving Su Yu no excuse to lash out.

"Oh, you can actually hold back? Looks like you're really calculating the price in your head, huh? Even just calculating takes you forever. Yeah, back when we bought those, we didn't even recognize the numbers one, two, three, four, five." Pansy stood next to Malfoy; whenever Malfoy organized a group buy, when had she ever missed it?

"Wow, really?" Young Master Malfoy's curiosity was piqued, and he asked Pansy in a low voice, "They really can't even count?"

Pansy gave him a speechless look. "Of course, back then, counting apples was illegal..."

"Aha!"

This infuriated the students from Uagadou nearby, who stood up and loudly berated the Slytherin students.

"What Grawp chattering about? Get back to work!" The magical whip in Fa-jie's hand lashed out instantly, crackling with electricity, startling the group of Wagadu students.

In the end, the farce came to a complete silence when Professor Graves casually flicked his hand and released a massive blue Fiendish Fiendfyre Curse dragon.

"Albus, you're really regressing! Why aren't you going to get those drunk students from the Koldovstoretz out of here? What are you wasting time on?"

Then, led by Headmaster Dumbledore, the headmasters arrived at the Quidditch arena and carried the students of Koldovstoretz, out one by one from the Map of Mountains and Seas. They were all very drunk and walked with their left hand on one side and their right leg on the other. Even so, before leaving, they said to the natives of the Land of the Husband Country that they would come back!

As for missions and all that, what missions? Where are the missions? Didn't they come to the Koldovstoretz just to drink? Come on, bro, cheers! burp

The following day, Minister Fudge stood on the Quidditch Pitch and announced that Hogwarts Academy of Management had won the first match.

The students in the stands cheered and jumped for joy, throwing the badges and flags of their respective colleges into the air, their excited shouts rising in waves as they celebrated this thrilling moment.

Then, in second place was the Mahoutokoro. Although they came out in the second-to-last group, they secured second place with their achievement of bringing back 378 quest items and the head of a Xiangliu.

Next up is Beauxbatons. As the second group to come out, they were ranked third in the overall score because their quest items were inferior to those of the second-ranked Mahoutokoro.

After announcing the House Points, Minister for Magic Fudge congratulated everyone and observed a moment of silence for the six students from the Mahoutokoro who had perished in the competition.

"You are all the best Champion I have ever seen!"

"However, now it's time for our second match!"

"After discussions with the principals, we have decided to schedule the second round of the competition for February 24th next year!"

The cheering students below the stage stopped and started counting the time on their fingers.

"Therefore, you still have a long time to make ample preparations! However, because the losses in the first match were so heavy, I can reveal some information here: the second match will not be as dangerous and bloody."

Danger and bloodshed? The students of the Hogwarts Academy all turned to look at Su Yu and his group. Where was the bloodshed? Where was the danger? All we saw was piles of gleaming gold and silver! If that's terrifying, then oh! Merlin's beard... that's truly terrifying! To think that so much gold and silver, not a single penny of it, is truly terrifying...

On the way back, the Gryffindor students carried the Weasley twins and Harry high in the air, tossing them repeatedly, while Ron blew his trombone, proud of his brothers.

Rita Skeeter was still tirelessly interviewing the Champion from the other houses and was already preparing to fabricate a major bombshell. Phoebe didn't want to talk to her, but that annoying Rita Skeeter, who didn't dare to interview the Champion from the Hogwarts Academy, just kept pestering her.

That night, Harry secretly donned the Invisibility Cloak and went to Hagrid's Hut, where he met his godfather Sirius Black and Professor Lupin.

"I'm so happy for you, Harry! You guys won first place!" When Harry opened the door, Sirius was struggling to eat Hagrid's Rock Cakes with Lupin. "Oh, you should try some too, Harry. Hagrid is so hospitable."

"I think I need some milk right now, really, I can't breathe..." Professor Lupin clutched his throat, swallowing the biscuit that was so dry it could crush his teeth.

Harry quickly picked up the teapot beside him and poured Professor Lupin a glass of water to help him catch his breath.

"Black, I never expected that you... you would actually come to watch our game!" Harry poured himself some water and happily sat down next to his godfather.

"Oh, my child, this is the Eight-Way Championship! Do you know how terrified I was when I found out you were selected? You didn't even tell me! So I dragged your Uncle Lupin along. This is a major event in your life, how could I not be there to witness it with my own eyes?"

Black smiled and stroked Harry's hair. "I'm really happy for you to see you grow up happily and make so many friends."

"I remember you guys used to really hate Slytherin?" Hagrid interjected inappropriately.

"Uh... really? Haha, cough cough... Harry, don't listen to Hagrid, just do what you want to do..." Black wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, let's not talk about Snape anymore..."

"Hey, come on, we haven't even talked about Snape, have we?" Harry thought to himself.

"We can't stay at the Hogwarts Academy forever. We sneaked in disguise this time, and Headmaster Dumbledore hasn't said anything, but we all know he's already found out about us, so we have to leave."
