"Mr. Behrens..." Twycross stammered for a long time before finally managing to speak clearly, "You, is this your first time learning Apparition?"

"This is my first time taking Apparition Class." Will nodded—it was indeed his first time taking Apparition Class; he initially used his Phoenix Form to Apparition.

Later, when learning how to use regular Apparition, Will simply looked at some materials and learned it.

Having performed Phoenix -themed Apparition many times, Will already had a deep understanding of Apparition.

This is likely unprecedented in history.

"Merlin's flowery underpants!" Twycross exclaimed, "You're a born Apparition master, Mr. Behrens!"

Over the years, no one has mastered it as quickly and skillfully as you have!

I have to give you extra points!

Snape immediately replied, "Slytherin gets ten points, because of Mr. Behrens' perfect Apparition!"

The other professors also looked at Will with satisfaction.

Professor McGonagall cleared her throat. "Slytherin, ten points, for Mr. Behrens ' excellence."

Professor Flitwick exclaimed in a shrill voice, "Slytherin, Slytherin points—oh, sorry, fifteen! What an elegant spellcasting!"

Professor Sprout smiled and nodded, "Ten points for Mr. Behrens, excellent, boy."

The other students looked at Will with envy, many of them with admiration. In just a few minutes, Will had earned several dozen points for Slytherin.

Many people were also whispering among themselves.

Hermione was dumbfounded—although she had grasped most of the theoretical knowledge, she was still a long way from successfully Apparition.

Harry was certain he saw a smug look flash across Snape's face.

It seems Snape is quite pleased with Will's talent. Harry sighed; he hadn't even figured out what Twycross had just said when Will had already learned Apparition.

Harry asked the old man behind the Glasses, somewhat helplessly, "Is this gap really something I can bridge, Mr. Strange?"

Strange through his Glasses, sighed. "Harry, what did I ask you to do all this time?"

Harry thought for a moment, "Hmm... let me train harder to prepare for Voldemort's possible attack at any time."

Didn't you say the Wizarding World is very dangerous right now?

Strange asked, "So... when did I tell you to catch up with Will? You idiot, that's not your mission."

Harry scratched his head—then why did he keep trying to catch up with Will?

Hmm? No, lately I seem to be thinking about Will more and more, intentionally or unintentionally, and it's not just him, Neville, Hermione, Ron and the others are doing the same thing.

After a moment 'Harry, Harry decided to attribute the incident to Will's profound influence on him and the others.

Anyone who was in the same year as Will would be speechless with amazement at Will talent.

However, the professors didn't give them much time to be amazed by Will's success.

This course is the envy of many, and Twycross isn't even a full-time professor.

"Alright, everyone, continue studying!" Professor McGonagall said sternly. "Mr. Behrens ' success is not an excuse for you to slack off. You should learn more from Mr. Behrens!"

I dare say, very few of you have studied for even half as long as Mr. Behrens!

Under the vice Headmaster's imposing presence, the students began practicing somewhat absentmindedly again.

Only Will was called over to the side of several Head of House and Twycross, seemingly wanting to have a chat with Will.

Twycross was pleased; he seemed eager to have a good talk with Will.

Students encountered numerous problems:

Harry suddenly started spinning like a top, lost his balance, and almost fell over.

Neville and Ron collided with a thud, both letting out a scream as they fell to the ground.

Seamus collided with several other students with a ballet-like movement, but fortunately, there was no explosion.

While Will was discussing his experiences with Apparition with several professors, an unexpected incident suddenly occurred during the students' free practice.

"Ahh!"

"Quickly, save them!"

The screams drew the attention of everyone present.

It turned out that a student was injured; Will remembered that it was Hawthorne from Slytherin.

Hawthorne appeared to have successfully performed Apparition, but only half of it – only his upper body was successfully Apparition.

His lower body remained in place, his two legs standing alone in the snow, which looked a bit frightening.

"Hawthorne!" his friend screamed, scrambling towards the professors. "Help him, professors!"

"Don't panic," Twycross said calmly. He Apparition to Hawthorne 'Hawthorne legs, picked them up, and slung them back onto Hawthorne's body like building blocks. "Splinching is common, especially for beginners."

Several professors gathered around Hawthorne, and with a loud bang, after a cloud of purple smoke dissipated, Hawthorne's upper and lower body were found connected together.

His face was deathly pale. He looked down at his leg, which had just been reattached, and his lips trembled as he couldn't speak.

This made the students even more nervous, and everyone became even more cautious afterward.

By the end of class, no one had successfully used Apparition —which was normal, as even among many exceptionally talented students, few could succeed in such a short time.

Before class ended, Twycross stood in front of everyone and fastened his Cloak: "See you next Saturday, everyone."

Hopefully the weather will be better for the next class. Students, please don't do any practice exercises casually after you go home.

But don't forget to learn the theoretical knowledge, and remember the three Ds: goal, determination, and composure.

After finishing speaking, Twycross vanished from everyone's sight using Apparition.

"Alright, go back and enjoy your Saturday," Professor McGonagall said to the students. "But remember Mr. Twycross's instructions."

Will then deactivated the Warm Air Charm, and the warm breeze around them vanished instantly. Many students shivered from the cold, but this did not deter them from leaving in high spirits.

Everyone seemed to want to make up for the half-day of rest that had been taken from them.

Will couldn't leave, because--

"Will, come with me for a moment," Professor Flitwick said immediately. "I want to talk to you..."

Snape interrupted Professor Flitwick: "Will, come to my Office in a bit."

"Severus, I have important business to attend to!" Even Professor Flitwick, usually such a kind man, seemed a little displeased.

"I have important business to attend to," Snape scoffed. "Would it be wrong for me to send my disciple to my Office?"

"Alright, you two, stop arguing," Professor McGonagall said, "Professor Dumbledore wants Will to see him. Professor Dumbledore means there's something important..."
