Neville wasn't the only one with the same doubts.

Everyone in the stands who was watching Harry 'Harry behavior couldn't help but question it.

Until—a 10-foot-thick black and red squid tentacle pierced through the rock wall and swept towards Harry.

"Kraken's awake? How did Harry know?!" Mr. Weasley, acting as a mouthpiece, voiced everyone's doubts.

Amidst everyone's worried gazes, a gleaming badge, bathed in the sunlight above Harry's head, caught their attention.

It 'struck' Harry's chest as the water surged with its tentacles.

Harry's body was also propelled backward by this force.

From the small screen in the middle, he is swimming straight towards his tunnel.

Kraken, having missed his first attack, retreated back into the cave.

Only the lake water, now murky from its actions, remained.

On the other hand, Phoebe also encountered the biggest test of the entire competition for her.

It was a man whose face was shrouded in mist.

Although I couldn't see his face clearly.

But the appearance of the rest of him seemed to make everything else lose its color.

Even the beautiful and charming Phoebe becomes a vulgar oil painting.

In the stands, all the spectators couldn't help but look at him.

"Phoebe." The man's voice was magnetic and incredibly captivating.

Many young men and women in the throes of first love couldn't help but feel jealous, and these voices spoke of Phoebe's name, not theirs.

Phoebe couldn't help but step forward and take a step.

This was the first time she had been so vulnerable, no longer radiant like the sun as before. As her expression softened and became more cautious, her entire aura also weakened.

"Ryan (all wizards not on Ryan's whitelist, all you hear here is a cacophony of electronic music), what are you doing here—"

"I just feel like I have enough girlfriends already. You know what I mean."

"After all, you're a lowly Veela Half-blood, and you're nothing new." The man said these vicious words softly.

Strangely enough, no one in the stands thought it was excessive.

They even thought it was only natural for him to be so handsome.

No woman/man can possess him alone, or possess him forever.

It's already an honor for Phoebe to have him for a short time.

"You are not Ryan!" Phoebe's voice trembled as she shakily raised her wand.

"You want to hurt me? You really have the heart to do that?"

"You forgot, I can close my eyes."

A flash of fire, and the man turned to ashes.

Phoebe opened her eyes. "A mere Boggart! Daring to impersonate Ryan!"

Phoebe gritted her teeth.

Then she took out the bottle of Light Potion and drank it.

She certainly didn't want any more similar dark creatures to appear.

As a result, Phoebe's skin and every inch of her body began to be enveloped in light.

However, no one paid any attention to her, who looked even more beautiful and dreamlike under the light.

They were all reminiscing about the man that Boggart had conjured.

At the family table, Phoebe's parents looked at Ryan.

They all recognized who the person was.

Ryan broke out in a cold sweat.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shark Krum, with the help of an area-of-effect spell— the Freezing Charm —escaped the Hippocampus.

But tragedy struck. When the horse -Hippocampus returned to its camp, it was so hungry from exercising that it ate a Rainbowfish.

As a result, it forgot its duty and went after the Rainbowfish.

Right now, Krum can only find the place he was at before without any landmarks.

However, the concerns of his viewers soon disappeared.

Krum, relying on his keen sense of smell, swam straight towards the location where the Durmstrang Badge had been stored.

Immediately afterward, before Harry returned to the tunnel and before Ilvas found the Kelpie's hideout, Krum obtained the badge.

Then they swam toward the cave.

At that moment, the audience also remembered the creature in the cave— the Giant Squid Kraken.

"Isn't this going too far? That's such a thick rock wall, and he broke through it with just one tentacle!" exclaimed the Ravenclaw student, whose casual attitude towards Kraken's actions.

"Yeah, Krum is just a shark now, and he's having such a hard time dealing with the Hippocampus."

"And he didn't buy Champion Uniform. What if he gets injured?"

"Yeah, Kraken is so rude," a Gryffindor student who fell into the water on his way to Hogwarts and was gently helped ashore by Kraken remarked.

"Have you all forgotten? Krum purchased War Magic."

Harry even fought a dragon hand-to-hand with it.

Uniforms or War Magic can both ensure that Champion are not injured in the game.

Moreover, the Champion's task is simply to obtain the badge.

Isn't it easy to get the badge by cleverly using magic without getting hurt?

I was referring to the Champion.

"Harry didn't even go into the cave!" Colin, a loyal Harry fan, analyzed.

Just as Colin finished speaking, Harry returned to the tunnel.

He surfaced, and the water from his hair, face, and body slid smoothly back into the water.

Standing by the pool, the now calm surface rotated automatically, as if the Black Lake was reluctantly saying goodbye to Harry.

This amazing scene did not attract much attention.

At this moment, the most attention-grabbing figure on the entire big screen is not the beautiful Furong, strolling leisurely through the maze with halo effects, casually bypassing one fierce Care of Magical Creatures Phoebe.

It's not Ilvas is gradually approaching the final emblem land.

Instead, it's Krum after he transforms into a shark.

Even Mr. Weasley couldn't help but exclaim, "Faster! So fast! Krum dodged the tentacles' attacks like he was riding a broomstick and dodging a bunch of Bludger!"

It perfectly showcased the movement of a world-class Seeker!

He wasn't hit even once!

It seems that although the Kraken is large, it is still not as agile as the Hippocampus.

What did I just see! He bit off the badge with his teeth!

Connected to the rock face!

What sharp teeth!

He's like a real shark!

Wait a minute! Has Krum lost his mind?

He went into the wrong tunnel! He chose the one in Ilvas! However, Krum did not lose his mind.

He had already analyzed the result by looking at the nose.

Harry and Phoebe have now left Black Lake.

The two might have already escaped the maze.

To attract the attention of other audience members and break the immersion, he and Ilvas, who were lagging behind, had to resort to some fancy tricks.

Therefore, he occupied the tunnel in Ilvas.

And Ilvas, presumably, could also find his tunnel by predicting the next seven seconds.

Even Ryan couldn't help but admire him (he had already dealt with Phoebe's parents, using the excuse that he was too handsome, which gave Phoebe the illusion that he had many girlfriends), "This Krum is really suited for variety shows."

"But isn't this a competition?" Kate asked, puzzled.

"This competition is like a large-scale variety show."

Of the four Champion, he was the only one Champion was willing to explain his actions and magic.

He's great at capturing the moment.

If we weren't underwater, making it easier to talk, you'd probably hear a long and interesting explanation from him.
