Tom seemed unaware of the secret turbulence happening in Hogwarts, but other Slytherin were not able to let go of these changes so easily.
Slytherin's little wizards, the first thing they are taught by their parents is to always pay attention to any subtle changes.
Before the storm comes, these may be the keys for them to stay safe.
But after all, the things involved were not so simple to explain, so they finally wrote a letter and told their parents about the matter...
Parents who are capable are also searching for relevant information.
This time was different from before, Dippet did not hide his actions, and all the wizard families who investigated quickly learned the reason why Hill family left Britain in embarrassment.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, Hogwarts Not everyone can touch porcelain...
After such an attitude is directly conveyed, it has a very good effect. Those wizards who have other ideas also need to think more. Even if they want to fall into the arms of Grindelwald, they have to see if they can bear the dissatisfaction of Hogwarts...
And because of the parents' silence, the little wizard didn't know exactly what happened.
Just as the final exam was coming, they needed to be busy with exam-related matters, so this matter came to an end for the time being.
For first graders like Tom, exams are a very serious matter.
In other words, many young wizards have never experienced the exam, so as the exam approaches, they all start to become extremely anxious.
This has a greater impact on wizards who come from Pure-blood family.
The unknown is the scarier thing.
The Muggle-born wizards who have gone through Muggle primary school are much better off. Although they are worried about not knowing how to conduct the wizard exam, at any rate, they have all experienced the exam, and even if they fail, it is not a big deal...
The little wizard among Slytherin seemed even more nervous.
Fortunately, Tom is not one of those people, he behaves very naturally in the exam.
When he was in the orphanage, in order to train him and give him a sense of progress, Mo Fei would always take some exams from time to time, and they were the type that combined Chinese and Western methods.
First, there is a test question filled with knowledge points, and he is asked to complete it within a time limit, and then he is graded and given specific results.
There is also practice, let Tom complete the practical operation of medicine or Herbology, and then write down the specific principles and procedures...
After two years of training, Tom is no stranger at all, and even somewhat expected.
Exam week is really here--
The first is the Transfiguration exam, which is aimed at first-grade little wizards. Their exam content is a simple dead object Transfiguration, but unlike the original match Transfiguration into a needle, there is a stone in front of them. They need to turn that stone Transfiguration into a ceramic tea set...
Not only the physical properties must be changed, but also the shape must be changed...
In the classroom, six little wizards were taking the exam at the same time. Tom was the first to complete it. His movements were very smooth. Just using the wand, the stone began to Transfiguration, and then formed a set of exquisite tea sets, with a set of Slytherin college logos even deliberately added to it...
There is no doubt that Tom and Dumbledore give the highest praise for their fast and good completion.
There is also the Charms class. The exam requirements for Charms are still Levitation Charm, but not only the simplest floating, but also the transfer of stone blocks on one side of the classroom to the other side.
Compared with other people's magic that fell off several times and turned red from holding it in, Tom's Levitation Charm can only be described as elegant.
There was no effort in the whole process, and waving the magic wand was like a conductor directing the orchestra to sing.
Such performance, if it were in class, would definitely get Professor Flitwick's praise and extra points, but now it's the exam, Professor Flitwick could only suppress his excitement, and then calmly gave "O".
In the Potions Class and Herbology class exams, he also completed the preparation of Potions in the comfort zone of Tom, and finally produced the perfect Potions, which is enough to prove his excellence. As for the course taught by Herbert -
Please, his performance every morning is enough for the professor to understand his level.
If it wasn't too special, there would be almost no need for exams in the conventional sense.
What really makes Tom somewhat interesting is Defence Against Dark Magic's Merrythought the Witch exam method.
In the first grade of Defence Against Dark Magic, there is almost no application of magic.
After all, magic that can be applied to combat is still a bit too difficult for a first-year wizard.
In the first-year course, in addition to learning a lot of Defence Against Dark Magic theory, they were also exposed to what may be Signal Charm...
Send a signal to the sky to notify others for rescue.
Red signal, and green signal...
Therefore, their exams are more theoretical assessments, almost all of which are knowledge mentioned in class...
This is also a rare exam where the written exam carries greater weight.
Don't underestimate the written test. The difficulty of this test is recognized as the hardest among the little wizards...
"Defence Against Dark Magic, what exactly is it defending against?"
"When faced with Werewolf, our first reaction should be what to do..."
"What do Vampires and bats have in common..."
"Yeti What are the characteristics of the places where they live..."
"How to identify Dark Magic items with the naked eye..."
Questions like these simply make the little wizards wail everywhere...
Because Madam Merrythought often tells some interesting stories to the children, they often just listen to the fun and don't remember much about the real knowledge...
This is true even for the little wizards of Ravenclaw.
Although Xiaoying and the others may be better and have compiled some knowledge from textbooks in advance, it is still not enough.
They even fell into deep self-doubt because of a lot of knowledge that they had not reviewed. They had related things mentioned in the impression class, but they just couldn't remember them.
So, in the end, many of them just slapped together an answer.
Madam Merrythought also arranged a lot of traps very maliciously, which made answering the questions even more difficult.
Take the question Yeti.
Normal little wizards, would they directly think of Yeti? As the name suggests, they should live on the Snowy Mountains, and isn't the common characteristic of the Snowy Mountains the cold?
There may be some young wizards who think of the characteristics of high altitude and inaccessibility, but such answers cannot be comprehensive...
You know, there are many varieties of Yeti, not only Long-haired Yeti that lives in cold areas, but also Grey Yeti that lives in volcanoes...
Therefore, this question is not actually answered from the perspective of the environment, but from the perspective of dietary structure.
No matter where Yeti lives, they need to consume a lot of salt. This is why they are called Yeti. According to some people's analysis, Yeti's magic resistance has a deep relationship with salt...
There are not many such traps.
So some little wizards may feel something strange when answering, but they just can't find the problem. This is the reason.
Fortunately, Madam Merrythought does not really want to fail everyone. There are still a large number of basic questions among these questions. As long as you answer them correctly, you can pass.
Tom also performed very well in this exam.
This teaching style of integrating knowledge into stories is very similar to Mo Fei, so he adapted quickly.
When the final result came out, Tom was all "O", but here, the "O" in Flying Class contained a little moisture.
