Did You Feed Your IQ to the Baboons? (Happy New Year's Eve)
Apparition Class at Hogwarts.
It was established by the Apparition Test Centre, a department under the Department of Magical Transportation.
The center will also send instructors to Hogwarts to teach students how to Apparition and Apparition.
As for why he wasn't taught by Hogwarts teachers, the reason is quite simple:
The school does not charge tuition!
Not only do they not charge tuition, but the Ministry of Magic also allocates a large amount of educational funds to Hogwarts every year.
Otherwise, given Hogwarts' already low ranking among magic schools, its educational standards would drop even further.
Yes, Hogwarts is just that awful!
Once the Ministry of Magic established Apparition, the ministry could openly collect money and recoup its losses.
The course price can even reach as high as twelve Galleon.
It may not seem like much, but think about it... it's more expensive than a magic wand.
Previously, the Weasley family struggled even to buy Ron a new wand, and their vault once held a record of having only a paltry one Galleon in savings.
The twins wanted to start a business with William since first grade, but poverty forced them to do so.
Therefore, such a price is certainly a luxury for impoverished families.
In addition, the exams are extremely rigorous; even a single hair falling out can result in a failing grade.
Therefore, the Apparition is an exam that can be repeatedly exploited, and naturally, it cannot be taught by schools for free.
In order to further increase the scale of their operations, the Ministry of Magic also established strict laws.
Violating Apparition is punishable by severe penalties, similar to driving without a license.
Those caught in "drunken hallucinations" or "drunken hallucinations" will be fined, and depending on the severity of the offense, may be imprisoned.
Performing Apparition with multiple people constitutes unauthorized, paid operation and will be subject to fines if discovered.
If the object splits into Splinching, the Ministry of Magic will charge a fee to help restore it, and will also deduct points from the score.
If the points deducted reach a certain level, the Apparition certificate will be revoked.
This also fostered the prosperity of the black market.
You can often see Little GG at the entrance of the Apparition Test Centre:
Low-price score boosting service, 13 Galleon per point;
Sickle per point.
That's right, it's that shady, exactly the same as cheating to max out your driver's license points!
However, despite Apparition being such an important source of income, the teachers who teach it often cannot come to Hogwarts because they are "sick".
After all, no matter how much they charge, they can only earn that fixed salary.
In our country... cough cough, employees of state-owned enterprises, aren't they content being lazy and idle, just loafing around and waiting to die?
But the students were shocked.
William, a professor who hasn't even received his certificate yet, is teaching this group of students... It's like asking someone without a driver's license to be a driving instructor!
That's outrageous!
Well... William may not have a certificate, but he's not worried at all.
He's a seasoned driver with extensive experience, having taught many people Apparition.
Don't believe me? Ask Hermione. How good is William's technique?
She understands this deeply!
As the appointed time arrived, the school quickly lifted the spell on campus.
Within Hogwarts, Apparition and Teleportation are impossible. However, for the sake of instruction, Dumbledore will rescind the spell, removing this restriction for one hour.
"Everyone, stand still and leave at least five feet of space in front of you," Professor McGonagall's voice rang out in the Great Hall.
Chaos erupted in the Great Hall as students scattered, bumped into each other, and shoved others out of their own areas.
The professors walked among the students, helping them arrange their seats and mediating disputes.
Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and a wooden circle immediately appeared on the ground in front of each student.
William, acting as Professor Flitwick's tool, also begins to teach Ravenclaw students.
"When Apparition, the most important thing to remember are the three Ds!" he said. "That is, Goal, Determination, and Composure!"
William immediately launched into 3D theory, making him appear extremely professional.
As he walked, he addressed the Ravenclaw students:
"Focus your attention and let yourself become one with nature."
You also need to imagine there's a black hole in front of you, and you have to go inside.
As the great magical Astronomy expert Hawking said:
Even black holes are places I want to explore my whole life.
We must have this kind of determination!
William looked around and said loudly:
"This is certainly difficult, but Magical Creatures Darwin said:"
After two different objects collide multiple times, they release their respective types of energy, thus opening the passage.
When you can easily enter a black hole, you should understand that it's not because you're amazing, but because you've already paved the way there.
Thus, one masters the Apparition... It's that simple.
William then delved into the magic cave theory, using a series of philosophical pronouncements to teach everyone how to Apparition.
William stepped forward, opened his arms, and gently spun around in place, disappearing as his robes billowed, before reappearing at the back of the Great Hall.
The students all applauded.
William's words are simple, but difficult to learn.
Everyone was secretly looking around to see if anyone was watching the wooden ring, and then following the instructions.
Many people stared at the dusty, circular floor inside the wooden circle, trying hard not to think about anything else.
Marietta stared intently at her wooden hoop, then spun around in place, losing her balance and nearly falling.
She wasn't the only one; suddenly, the Great Hall was filled with people swaying unsteadily.
Qiu jumped into the wooden circle in front of him like a shaman, and was excited for a moment.
how?
Did I succeed on my first try?
It seems my recent intensive training with Cedric has really paid off!
Professor McGonagall also switched to strict mode, constantly correcting the lion cubs' problems.
The badgers were generally slow learners, but Professor Sprout showed her patience.
If these three teachers could still give explanations, Professor Snape would have shown everyone what a master of Yin and Yang truly is.
Elena Kasrina spun gracefully, stretching her body and puffing out her chest, which resembled the Amazon Plain.
Although it was her first time using Apparition, she knew she would succeed!
That's right, her talent doesn't allow her to be low-key.
After spinning two and a half times, Armstrong accelerated with a spin... Elena, dizzy and disoriented, slammed forward with a rocket headbutt.
She looked up in alarm as she bumped into Snape, only to be met with a smile from the professor.
Elena was trying to protect the professor's smile when Snape sneered:
"Did you throw all your intelligence into the Albania forests to feed the curly-haired baboons?!"
"..."
As Maca Clay spun around and sprawled out, Snape walked over and said sarcastically:
"Are you here for vacation? Would you like me to get you a lounge chair?"
"..."
Alan Harris let out a terrifying scream, and everyone turned around in horror to find that he Splinching.
His body swayed inside the wooden hoop, but his left leg remained five feet away from the spot.
Snape hurried over, annoyed, and said, "You idiot, aren't you afraid of dying?"
Seeing Alan nervously dodge his wand, Snape roared again:
"What are you afraid of? I'm the one who should be afraid!"
Looking at Snape spewing five breaths per second, William suddenly remembered his driving instructor from his previous life.
Once, when William was learning to drive, his instructor, who was sitting in the passenger seat, told him to run over and kill someone on the side of the road.
William said he dared not, and the coach, spitting as he spoke, roared:
"Then why the hell aren't you braking right now?!"
Later, William passed by the driving school and heard that the instructor was now in a wheelchair.
One student got upset after being criticized, and then, instead of braking, he accidentally stepped on the accelerator...
By the way, the book-reading app I've been using recently allows me to cache books and read them offline!
If Professor Snape continues like this, he won't be able to stay in his position as Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor... he'll be gone.
Umbridge strolled around for a while, lingered behind a few students, and then slowly walked towards the Hospital Wing.
Many of the injured students are receiving treatment from Madam Pomfrey.
Madam Pomfrey kept muttering to herself, thinking that the Academy shouldn't be offering such a dangerous course Apparition.
Umbridge walked toward a private ward where Marietta was lying.
Umbridge walked over, took Marietta's hand, and smiled, "What's your decision, child?"
Marietta fearfully covered her face with the blanket.
"Did you receive your mother's letter?" Umbridge asked with a sweet, cloying smile, seemingly unconcerned.
"Your mother, Mrs. Edgecombe, is a low-level employee at the Department of Magical Transportation's Floo Network Authority."
If you behave, she'll get a promotion next month. If you don't...
Marietta cowered on the bed, her lips trembling, and said in a tearful voice, "I promise you."
Umbridge smiled with satisfaction.
It's done!
