Chapter 144

However, to gain respect and fame by greeting people in international duel competitions, Ye Ting really didn't know which idiot gave him the bad idea.

It's really a brain problem.

At this moment, Fudge's secretary and assistants were always happy to introduce to everyone: "This is the British Minister of Magic, the greatest wizard, Mr. Connelly Fudge."

Hearing his name, many foreign wizards are very interested, after all, Fudge is also the Minister of Magic.

But many foreign wizards asked questions that were rather embarrassing to Fudge's secretary and assistant.

"Shouldn't Britain's greatest contemporary wizard be Albus Dumbledore?"

This question left Fudge's assistants at a loss as to how to answer. After all, although he agreed with this point of view, Fudge was his immediate supervisor.

But fortunately, the boss's cultural level is not enough, and he can't understand what these foreigners are saying.

However, Fudge couldn't understand it, but Ye Ting who passed by him could understand it - after all, his learning ability is really terrible, he can speak the mainstream comparative languages ​​in the world.

Hearing these funny conversations, he laughed out loud on the spot.

Then, his sudden laughter immediately attracted people's attention.

At this moment, Dumbledore himself was standing beside Ye Ting.

Dumbledore was so famous, and his height and long white beard were so distinctive that people recognized him all at once.

This is incredible, these foreigners immediately abandoned Cornelius Fudge and gathered around Dumbledore to shake hands with him.

Seeing Fudge's now dark face, Ye Ting was about to laugh again.

"Oh my God, are you Mr. Dumbledore, the greatest wizard in all of Europe?"

"I've read your work, and you're amazing."

"Why doesn't Hogwarts recruit students overseas? I really want to be your student."

"It's amazing to hear that one of your students became the first Animagus in history to become a magical creature at such a young age."

Talking, how did you mention me? Ye Ting's eyelids jumped.

In fact, Sandu, who received the Order of Merlin, is also a celebrity in the wizarding world.

Soon, someone noticed him beside Dumbledore.

"Isn't this the first magical creature Animagus, the genius of Hogwarts, Mr. Ting Ye?"

"I heard that he also won the International Wizarding Chess Championship!"

"Mr. Ye, can you sign my name?"

Ye Ting didn't have the patience of Dumbledore. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately used a disillusionment spell, left here before being surrounded, and ran to Hermione and the two professors.

There, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick were pointing at Cornelius Fudge, while Hermione was listening with interest.

Last year, Fudge's series of operations completely offended the entire Hogwarts, and neither the professors nor the students had a good impression of him.

"Poor Fudge," said Professor McGonagall in a low voice, avoiding Fudge's hearing. "He's been living in his dream, and it's only there that he can surpass Dumbledore and become the greatest wizard."

"I think he should have given up on this unrealistic dream sooner," said Professor Flitwick, frowning. The dwarf professor rarely looked down on someone, and apparently Fudge was one of them: "In England, all wizards know that There is only one reason why Fudge was able to become Minister of Magic, that is, Dumbledore did not run for office."

"Actually, that's what everyone said," Professor McGonagall shrugged, "but who made Fudge disbelieve, now that arrogance has gradually swallowed his heart, you know, when he just became Minister of Magic Fudge, seeking forty advice a day from Dumbledore is tiresome."

Hermione was also quite dissatisfied with Fudge, not because of the Dementors, but because the Ministry of Magic took Ye Ting and wanted to judge him, and it was Cornelius Fudge who gave the order.

Now, the remarks of Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick have greatly diminished Hermione's affection for Fudge herself and even the Ministry of Magic, and she no longer respects the Ministry as much as she once did.

"What Ye Ting said at the time was right." She thought, "Most people in the Ministry of Magic are idiots."

...

This farce ended quickly, because the duel match was about to begin.

The rules of the duel match are quite simple. It is a pure knockout match, and there is no best-of-three or three-best-of-five games. As long as you are knocked down and lose your ability to resist, you will be sentenced to lose. The rules are quite cruel.

Also, such duels are somewhat different from normal wizard duels.

A formal wizarding duel can only use magic. Both sides of the duel first bow to each other as a show of respect, and then assume a common dueling stance. After the count of three, both sides attempt to disarm, stun, wound, defeat, or kill the other, forcing the other to submit and win.

In a formal duel there is usually an "assistant" - this person is usually a trusted ally who will take over the duelist if necessary and continue the fight.

In addition, there are a series of rules such as no physical contact.

However, in such a sporty duel, first of all, too powerful and deadly magic cannot be used, such as the unforgivable curse, various deadly curses, explosion curses, split curses, various black magics, etc. Appear in such a duel of the nature of the competition.

In addition, even ordinary magic spells have regulations that cannot cause death or serious injury. For this reason, the organizers of the competition will arrange for doctors and some powerful wizards to monitor each arena to prevent any accidents. But since the duelists are mostly powerful wizards, there are a few badly injured hapless in almost every international wizarding duel competition.

However, compared to the wizard duel competition hundreds of years ago, it is now considered a civilization.

In addition, the "assistant" rule has also been cancelled. After all, this is not a duel of life and death, but a competition of personal abilities.

Hundreds of wizards from all over the world participated in this International Wizarding Duel Competition. Most of these wizards were recommended by the Ministry of Magic of various countries and duel clubs with a certain degree of self-reproach, and Hermione occupied the quota of the Ministry of Magic.

With so many players, although it is only a knockout round, the competition will last for three days in total.

Each duel usually only lasts a few minutes, but the need to give players time to rest and recover has lengthened the race.

Now, Hermione is about to officially set foot on the field to test her current fighting level.

0204 The first two wins

Hermione's first opponent was a bearded man in a white robe. Ye Ting in the audience could see at a glance that this was a wizard from the Middle East.

The wizard from the Middle East did not believe that the little girl in front of him was his opponent. He speaks jerky French. Even the one with the gesture confirmed with the referee several times, and finally had to admit this fact.

At this time, he looked at Hermione with a smug smile in his eyes, pretending to be kind.

"Little girl. Why don't you surrender? That way you'll be spared the pain of flesh and blood. Wizard duels are not for a little girl like you."

Although his French was sloppy, Hermione understood it right away - she had taught herself some French when she traveled to France last summer - which made Hermione very angry, because she didn't like being underestimated. Look, especially if someone looks down on her because she's a child or a woman.

"Listen, uncle," she grimaced at the wizard in the Middle East, "I'll make you regret underestimating my little girl in the game later."

"I'm not an uncle!" As if being poked at a pain point, the Middle Eastern wizard was furious, "I'm only 25 years old this year!"

"Oh, really?" Hermione couldn't help feeling a little smug when she saw him angry. "That's not what your beard said."

The Middle Eastern wizard wanted to retort, but Hermione had already drawn her wand and bowed at him.

This is the etiquette before the wizarding duel begins.
