Hogwarts and the Ghost Flower

Chapter 188 3 Strong Tournament

188 Triwizard Tournament

Dumbledore: "As I said, we will be honored to host this wonderful event over the next few months... The Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year!"

"Are you kidding?" Fred Weasley asked loudly.

He asked the disbelief of all the students, and everyone turned their attention from Mad-Eye Moody to Dumbledore.

After being affirmed by Dumbledore, the tense atmosphere that enveloped the auditorium in the hall was suddenly broken.

Vilia Hurst knew about this from Hawk Glass a long time ago, so she also had time to collect information about the Triwizard Tournament.

The Triwizard Tournament was created some 700 years ago as a friendly rivalry between the three largest schools of wizardry in Europe, namely Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang.

Each school will select a warrior, and then compete in three magic items.

Since its inception, the Triwizard Tournament has been held every five years and is hosted by the three schools in rotation.

Later, too many people unfortunately died in the Triwizard Tournament, so it was ordered to stop.

For centuries, people have tried to hold the Triwizard Tournament again. Until this year, the Ministry of Magic finally felt that the time was ripe to try again, and in order to ensure safety, sufficient preparations had been made to ensure that the warriors safety.

A ceremony to select the warriors will be held on Halloween, and an impartial judge will select the most qualified warriors from each school's applicants.

In addition, this year's Triwizard Tournament seems to have an age limit.

When Vilia explained the information to Luna and the others, Dumbledore almost reached this point.

"The participating schools and the Ministry of Magic agree that only students who are 17 years old, that is, students over 17 years old, are allowed to register..."

Students who are over 17 years old are at least senior students who are about to graduate from the sixth grade.

They have relatively rich reserves of knowledge and spells, and they can respond to the dangers of the Triwizard Tournament in a timely manner, at least they can protect themselves.

Wei Liya and the others are only in the third grade, so it is enough to be a spectator.

Thinking of the protagonist Harry Potter's one-year adventure, Vilia frowned and looked in the direction of Gryffindor.

In Harry's first grade, he had the adventure of the Sorcerer's Stone with the resurrection effect, in the second grade, he was in the secret chamber Horcrux adventure, and in the third grade, he was Sirius again...

Every new item, person, or event that appears every year is basically inseparable from Harry.

Now it was Harry's fourth year, he was only in the fourth year, and he couldn't sign up for the Triwizard Tournament at all.

……

Seemingly aware of Vilia's gaze, Harry looked back and smiled at Vilia.

No, he wasn't looking at her.

Vilia followed Harry's line of sight and saw Qiu Zhang.

Qiu Zhang is also a student of Ravenclaw. She is two grades higher than Vilia, and she is now a fifth grader.

In the last school year, Valia also replaced her as the seeker of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team when she was injured.

Speaking of which, she seemed to be there at the Quidditch World Cup final.

It was early too, and Dumbledore drove the students back to the dormitory to rest after finishing the news of the Triwizard Tournament.

Students are not allowed to stay in the entire hall.

The disgruntled Weasley twins left cursing.

They're in sixth grade, but they can't turn 17 on Halloween.

After all, you have to be 11 years old to be admitted to Hogwarts.

And students like them who were born in the first half of the year can enter the first grade in September of that year.

You don't turn 16 until the start of sixth form, and you don't turn 17 until the second half of the school year, after the Christmas break.
