Snape Being Ridiculous (Third Update!)

With so many Champion appearing in the market, the biggest consequence is... they've become worthless!

Each of the three schools had one representative, making them exceptionally beautiful and the center of attention.

But it's not so strange if there are more than twenty, more than the Prefect.

Hogwarts is alright; there are many students, and even in each house, like Gryffindor, there are only three Champion.

But Beauxbatons and Durmstrang were different.

Each school only brought a dozen or so students, wow... more than half of them were Champion.

This leads to many problems.

For example, Maxime waved his hand and said, "Support the Champion of your own school!"

But... there aren't enough fans. Even if everyone gets one fan, some Champion won't get one.

Not to mention some Champion who themselves want to support others.

For example, the famous Hermione saved Paris, and after a year of promotion by the French Ministry of Magic, she became an idol for the entire Beauxbatons school;

Take Phoebe for example. Just because of her beauty, she has a bunch of Champion who are crying and begging to help her out during the competition.

This is like playing PUBG and being almost in the final circle, only to find that your favorite streamer is facing off against you...

True fans will definitely try to sabotage it, and sycophantic fans might even turn into deliverymen and send their level 3 helmets over.

They might also find someone else to leak information.

But back at Hogwarts, the situation is completely different.

The school, organized by colleges, was directly... split apart.

Each academy only supports its own Champion; all other Champion are... heretics!

And heresy must be defeated!!

Suddenly, it felt like we were back in the days of the Quidditch Cup battle.

Fortunately, there is no Quidditch Cup this year, so the Triwizard Tournament serves as a perfect substitute.

Under the bewildered gazes of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, the infighting at Hogwarts thus began in earnest.

Surprisingly, Hufflepuff, who always preferred to make a fortune quietly, fired the first shot in their internal strife.

They loudly proclaimed that Cedric was the true Champion of Hogwarts, and the others had all cheated.

The reason is quite valid: he is the only true adult wizard, while the other Champion are all minors!

As for Gorilla Captain Slytherin... he is an adult, but he repeated a year instead of graduating.

This disgrace to Slytherin is something even the Slytherin!

The usually docile badger suddenly became high-profile, Gryffindor was not happy about it.

The Champion are selected based on skill, not age!

Hermione's ability to become Champion while still a minor only underscores her strength.

Besides, her abilities are widely acknowledged. Otherwise, why don't you go and save Paris and destroy Venice once?

Hermione's cult... is the best in the world, no explanation needed!

As for the Weasley brothers, they were indeed overshadowed by Hermione's brilliance.

Like Ron, and the Gorilla Captain of Slytherin, he was completely ignored by the lion cubs.

Ravenclaw was also unhappy.

Didn't you listen to Professor Snape's words that day? Let me tell you plainly: the Champion were all William's doing.

And Ravenclaw's Champion is Cho, which naturally represents a kind of... designation.

That's right, the Stark have already decided that Cho will be the Champion.

Furthermore, Ravenclaw has won the House Cup for four consecutive years and the Quidditch Cup for three consecutive years, dominating the entire house and leaving other houses breathless.

Is this fake?

What kind of trash is Gryffindor? They broke the lowest score record last year, and they don't even deserve to be mentioned in relation to the Champion!

Slytherin opened his mouth, but after looking around, he realized he really didn't have anything to brag about.

Malfoy and Gorilla Captain, neither of these Champion are any good.

That won't do. After searching high and low, the only thing I can do is boast about my ancestors.

Who hasn't had a wealthy past? Slytherin is the house that produces the most Champion!

It has been believed since ancient times that... Champion should belong to the Slytherin.

With internal strife raging, everyone completely ignored the other two schools.

Everyone agreed that Hogwarts would be the ultimate champion.

They might pay attention to Krum and Phoebe at most, but no one really cared about the ragtag Champion from other schools.

It's as if nobody really cares whether Barbados will break free from the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom Ministry of Magic.

When people see this news in a small corner of the Daily Prophet, they'll just mutter something to themselves:

Where is Barbados?

This infighting among the four colleges openly extended into the classroom.

McLaggen and Marietta started arguing right there in the Transfiguration class, almost coming to blows.

Professor McGonagall was furious. She slammed her hand on the blackboard for the seventh time and shouted:

"I'm speaking from up here, and you're speaking from down here. Am I speaking, or are you speaking?!"

"Why don't you come up here and I sit down?!"

The whole class immediately fell silent, heads bowed like quails.

Professor Snape took the art of sarcasm to its extreme.

In Potions Class, he handed out the assigned moonstone paper.

Qiu's paper had a long, sharp, black "P" hastily drawn at the top corner.

Hogwarts grades are divided into five levels: O, E, A, P, and T. These represent excellent, good, pass, poor, terrible, and the worst... Troll, respectively.

William checked it, and Qiu's paper could barely be given an "A".

To be strict, even giving a P (percentage missing) would be acceptable.

Normally he would just give an A, but now it's the Triwizard Tournament period, so Snape is bound to target them.

He sneered and strode quickly through the class.

"The overall quality of this homework was terrible. For example, our Ravenclaw's ' Champion,' I thought it would at least get an E."

Is this Champion are capable of?

I'm so disappointed.

Snape looked at Cho with a mocking expression.

"I advise someone to give up on the Triwizard Tournament as soon as possible, otherwise they might have to repeat the year next year."

The Ravenclaw students glared at Snape.

Professor Snape, unperturbed, continued:

"If you submit something like this in the O. W. Ls exam, this is the grade I will give you."

"Therefore, you should all have a clear understanding of yourselves."

He paused for a moment and said, "Alright, bring out the questions."

Last year, Professor Snape wasted an entire year teaching everyone how to brew Wolfsbane Potion and "how to kill Werewolf."

This is content that is outside the curriculum and beyond the syllabus.

Having wasted an entire year, everyone's grades were naturally affected.

If this continues, it will definitely affect Snape's title of having the highest pass rate, so for the first time ever, he explained the written test questions.

However, Professor Snape seemed to lack experience.

"Does this question even need explaining?" he said in a greasy voice, pacing back and forth in the classroom.

"A is obviously wrong! B can be eliminated, and C is clearly not relevant to the question, so the answer is D!"

I'm so confused! How come so many of you got this question wrong?

"..."

Amidst everyone's bewilderment, Professor Snape quickly scanned the questions.

After class, everyone left the basement classroom looking confused. What did they learn in class?

He seemed to have snapped out of his daze and didn't understand anything.

This is absolutely hilarious!

Even five minutes into the Care of Magical Creatures, Qiu was still complaining about him.

"There's nothing shameful about it, Qiu. It's just a P, a healthy and energetic 'P'," William comforted her.

"But," Qiu's expression was extremely serious, "A 'P' means bad, and if this continues, I definitely won't pass my Potions Class..."

"That's because Professor Snape graded us according to the O. W. L. exam standards," William said quickly.

"Although you are a P now, many changes will occur between now and the exam."

You have plenty of time to improve and progress your grades, don't you?

"Hmm, that makes sense." Qiu nodded, resting her chin on her hand. "By the way, William, what were your grades?"

"Oh."

"..."

"Have you two finished discussing, William and Cho?" Hagrid cleared his throat. "We've already had five minutes of class started."

William and Qiu looked up and realized everyone was staring at them, so they quickly shut up.

Hagrid mimicked Professor McGonagall, saying, "If each of you wastes even a minute, the entire lesson is over!"

"Ravenclaw loses two points!"

(Please vote for this post, everyone!)
