Chapter 31 [Come to Cheat, Come to Sneak Attack]

A freshman?

Everyone in the room was quite surprised.

"What's wrong with Shepard?" Cruz frowned.

Shepard is a good duelist in the fifth year of Slytherin. It stands to reason that he can screen out a lot of people by standing at the door.

Although not everyone here is a prefect, those who stand here are either skilled in their hands or have skilled families, and some are even both.

What's the point of letting a freshman in to duel now?

Lowering the gold content?

Does Slytherin want to play something disgusting?

The seventh-year prefect of Gryffindor was the first to mock: "What? You Slytherins can't even guard a door? What's the point of dueling with this? Just give up the key honestly."

"Don't say that, Shepard's dueling ability is still very strong." Gabriel, the prefect of Hufflepuff, eased the atmosphere.

There are not many people in each grade in the school, and everyone knows who is strong and who is weak. After all, they have lived together for several years.

Sheppard was trusted by so many Slytherins and used as a strength tester, so his strength was naturally not bad. Letting him come here was meant to establish his authority.

He could completely stop those stupid wizards who didn't know themselves and wanted to join in the fun.

Ron's brother Percy didn't interrupt, but looked at Rock who came in from the door with some concern.

He remembered this little wizard, or anyone who had seen Rock would find it hard to forget him. This young wizard had an indescribable charm, and even made people wonder if he was carrying the blood of a veela.

However, only females can inherit the blood of veela.

But what Percy cared about more was how Rock got rid of Sheppard?

Sheppard was cautious by nature, and he would never show mercy after confirming that the other party was going to participate in the competition.

It could only be that Rock took advantage of his first-year appearance and took the initiative.

Could it be... a sneak attack?

"You are really ruthless!" Kurus looked at Sheppard lying on the ground and laughed: "But this is how you deal with Slytherin!"

He put his hand on Rock's shoulder, then carefully looked at Sheppard's miserable condition, and said in amazement:

"He is good at sneak attacks!"

"Sneak attacks? Do you mean him?" Rock nodded and said: "Well, when he sneak attacked me, he was really good. I'm afraid ordinary wizards would find it difficult to react."

As soon as Rock spoke, the surroundings were quiet for a moment. The prefects on the field looked at him immediately, and then they returned to normal in an instant, and looked away in the blink of an eye.

And Kurus, who was originally on Rock's shoulder, gradually became solemn.

Even the hand on Rock's shoulder became a little stiff at this time.

The prefects are not fools. They all realized that Rock might be a super genius.

It's not surprising that such a demon wizard will appear in the wizarding world every few decades. The first grade knows more spells than many seventh graders.

Gemma informed the chairman and asked him to transfer a seventh-year student to guard the door, and then immediately stepped forward to help Sheppard up.

"Don't move, it's broken." Sheppard's eyebrows were twisted together, and his expression was quite painful.

Fortunately, the four houses prepared a lot of white fresh and stimulating potions in advance for this duel, so this kind of external injury was only a little painful for the wizard.

"What happened just now? I didn't see it clearly." Slytherin female headmaster Gemma asked in a low voice, and helped Sheppard wipe the dirt on his face.

"Ahem... It might be a floating spell, or something else, I don't know..." Sheppard panted: "The only thing I'm sure of is that he must have cast the spell silently, and he may not even use a wand."

"Let Matthews be careful, he is not an ordinary little wizard."

What the two said was no secret, and the headmasters present heard it clearly.

Let Matthews be careful?

Matthews Avery is the male head of the seventh-year students! One of the twenty-eight sacred families, Slytherin College has the strongest magic power!

Silent and wandless spells?

The prefects silently memorized the information that Slytherin deliberately shared, because it was indeed crucial, and this skill could gain too much advantage in the duel.

Percy, who stood on the Gryffindor side, had a slightly bitter expression. He had a hunch that he might not gain anything tonight.

...

As time went by.

The duel had begun.

There were more and more students in the bell tower courtyard!

But most of them were from the third grade and above to join in the fun.

Only a few first- and second-year wizards who had heard the news from somewhere also followed to see it.

And now, at the entrance of the bell tower, a group of young wizards were divided into two waves and confronted each other!

Harry, one of the parties, looked as if he had been answered: "Why are you here?"

"Humph! I am from the Malfoy family. It is not surprising that I appear here. This is a duel led by our Slytherin!" Malfoy said to Hermione and others arrogantly.

Harry was able to come here because Michael let something slip, and Ron heard it, so Harry and Ron followed him.

Now the main people confronting each other are Harry and Malfoy. Michael and his friends were forced to stand in line, and they themselves felt that it was retribution for letting something slip.

The two sides stood there for a while, and Malfoy looked at Harry and his group with a flickering look. After looking around, he suddenly said:

"Where's Rock?"

"What does it have to do with you?" Hermione immediately retorted.

Malfoy was about to say something, but then he seemed to think that the game had already begun, so he didn't say anything more. He just gave Harry and the others a hard look, turned his head and left with a "hum".

Michael and other roommates also breathed a sigh of relief. They really didn't want to miss the duel because of a confrontation at the door over such a trivial matter.

"Rock seems to have gone in first, let's go in quickly!"

Several people nodded, and immediately stepped forward and said to the seventh-year Slytherin senior who was guarding the door, "Ravenclaw freshmen, I want to watch the duel."

As a result, the other party was very excited and suddenly took out his wand, which shocked Hermione and others, thinking that Malfoy had secretly tripped them up.

Fortunately, the senior immediately realized that he had overreacted.

Hermione, Harry and others were soon released.

As soon as they entered the door, the shouts of the wizard inside reached the ears of Harry and others.

"Oh my God, this is his fifth win, right?"

"Are today's first-year students so good?"

"Even Weasley lost to him..."

Weasley?

Ron immediately pricked up his ears, tried his best to squeeze through the crowd of wizards, and looked towards the duel stage.

Is it...is it Percy? !

Ron was stunned as he watched.

The other party's appearance now looked very miserable, his whole body was disgraced, and his body was still bleeding, and he looked scary and anxious.

"First-year little wizards, don't hinder the treatment here!" Several seventh-year Hufflepuff students rushed out from the audience. They were responsible for using potions and spells to heal the wizards.

Tonight's duel in the four houses was open to all spells except for the Unforgivable Curse and a few jinxes and black magic. It can be said that all the prefects also fought with all their might.

But Ron still couldn't imagine that his brother would lose so miserably.

"Oh my God, is that Percy?" Harry followed quickly and saw Percy lying on the ground.

Harry remembered Percy. On the day he entered school, Percy gave him the impression of a strong yet gentle senior.

Will Percy, who seems so powerful, lose?

how come?

Who defeated him?

Harry looked to the other side curiously.

It was a little wizard. There was a huge clock hanging above his head, and behind him was the bright full moon. The bright moonlight splashed on his fair face, and his white-gold hair reflected the golden clock above. In his eyes was the same deep blue pool as before.

Harry was so familiar with this person that he immediately shouted in surprise:

"Rock?!"
