"Freshmen, come with me."
Professor McGonagall nodded towards Elena, her mouth seemed not to be as tight as before, she turned sideways and opened the door wide, gesturing for the freshmen to follow her in.
The architectural specifications of Hogwarts Castle are larger than most in Europe, just like Gringotts. It is obviously considered to have some large-scale wizarding visitors.
Everyone walked through the oak door and walked into the hall. The stone walls were surrounded by blazing torches, and the ceiling was so high that the top was almost invisible. In front of it was a luxurious marble staircase that led directly to the upper floor.
Along the stone paved floor, Professor McGonagall led the first-year students to a small empty room at the other end of the hall. He turned around, folded his hands in front of the dark green robe, straightened his back, and looked at his face nervously.
The faces of the freshmen moved for a moment, they cleared their throats and said.
"Welcome to Hogwarts," Professor McGonagall said, "but before the opening banquet, there are a few important things that need to be explained to all gentlemen and ladies..." (Please click to expand for details)
Listening to Professor McGonagall's familiar admission introduction and the introduction to each college before the branch, Elena rolled her eyes speechlessly and curled her lips in disapproval.
Not to mention the fact that all fan fiction in previous lives had a fixed number of words in this paragraph, she didn’t know that she had read it many times. Just talking about this paragraph from now on and seven years from now would be infinitely equivalent to nonsense.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with this passage, it’s mainly that Gryffindor House has been openly cheating since Harry Potter’s admission.
Before the sixth grade, no matter how many points were deducted from the house every year, Dumbledore could make the House Cup fall into the arms of Gryffindor House at the end of the semester through a lot of seemingly reasonable nonsense.
Of course, from Elena's point of view, this is actually not a bad thing. After all, no matter how she tries to die, it will not affect the final Academy Cup, and naturally there will be no psychological pressure or guilt.
Just when Elena was so bored that she began to harass little Hermione around her - such as secretly scratching her palms with her fingers or playing with Hermione's hair - Professor McGonagall's admission instructions finally came to an end.
"Some senior students have not arrived at the castle yet, and it will take about half an hour for the sorting ceremony to begin."
Considering that freshmen rarely waited for such a long time before, Professor McGonagall thought for a moment, took out his wand and waved it. Amidst the exclamations of the first-year freshmen, a pattern suddenly appeared on the hard stone floor.
Large soft wool rug.
"Before that, you can sit down and rest for a while."
Professor McGonagall glanced sharply at the little wizards and continued, "Please try to stay quiet while waiting."
After saying that, she walked out of the room.
Watching Professor McGonagall leave and the heavy wooden door slam shut, the young wizards breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the soft wool carpet without any image, and began to discuss in a low voice.
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but Professor McGonagall said a lot, but she chose to skip the most important sorting ceremony.
"Oh, I heard Fred say that the separation might be very harmful to us. But I think he was mostly joking."
Ron, who had five older brothers studying at Hogwarts, quickly became one of the focuses of the crowd. Many young wizards gathered around him, hoping to get some news about the sorting from him.
"Not necessarily. My cousin said that the sorting ceremony is to perform a magic in front of everyone to prove that the school did not send the wrong admission invitation. I don't know if I can successfully perform [fluorescent flash] later."
Neville said dullly, his round face full of nervousness.
laugh--
Draco Malfoy, who was holding his arms on the side, couldn't help but sneered when he heard their words. He raised his pale golden eyebrows, proudly shook his fingers, and retorted slowly.
"How is it possible? My father is one of the board members of Hogwarts. He told me that I only need to accurately recite the list of surnames of the twenty-eight pure-blood families to successfully pass the exam."
"Have you never thought about why we were given a month to access the textbooks in advance?"
Hermione Granger interrupted Malfoy a little irritably, pulled her long brown wavy hair, and said slightly frantically.
"There will definitely be an entrance exam. Oh my god, I didn't even think of taking a textbook with me when I got off the train."
As the little wizards shared the sorting ceremony from their brothers, sisters and even their parents, the atmosphere of uneasiness that was visible to the naked eye quickly spread.
Elena gave a rough summary. If you want to pass the assessment and enter Hogwarts, you need to defeat a giant monster single-handedly, perform a smooth tap dance, and then take a written test with a variety of strange questions...
All in all, according to the descriptions of the little wizards present, Elena was very pleased to learn that Hogwarts' fine tradition of "sorting intimidation" for first-year wizards has been very successful in every family.
Execution and continuation.
"Okay, just relax. As far as I know, it's just a simple personality test."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the waiting hall was getting more and more tense, Elena sighed helplessly and revealed the answer to the mystery in advance.
"People with different personality traits will be assigned to different colleges. Although I think this is actually a very random and irresponsible allocation method..."
Halfway through her words, Elena glanced at the doubtful little wizards surrounding her, rolled her eyes, and suddenly changed the subject and said mysteriously.
"Speaking of which, I have a mysterious testing method here that can predict the college you are about to go to in advance. Do you want to try it?"
This time Elena was not just making random remarks. Most of her questions came from the house sorting test questions published on Pottermore, the official website of the Harry Potter series in her previous life.
To be honest, this is something that the fandom community has always been curious about. If the protagonists in the original work are divided into colleges according to the content on the official website, will they still maintain the original colleges?
Of course, in order to prove her authority, the final results announced by Elena will most likely not be biased. After all, as a time traveler who specializes in the HP series, if she cannot even guide and predict this, then she must
Someone cast the Imperius Curse or the Oblivion Curse.
Looking with satisfaction at the first-grade children around her who nodded quickly like chickens pecking at rice, Elena smiled slightly.
"Then the first question, dusk or dawn..."
