Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 298 How could you say that about him?
The shock Li Wei brought to everyone was hard to process, causing wave after wave of turmoil both inside and outside the community.

But for him, life was no different.

The students continued to study diligently, and external information did not disturb him—in fact, the number of letters from owls increased, falling into Hogwarts every day like snowflakes.

But Li Wei handed the matter over to Barton, so he basically didn't need to reply.

His life remains peaceful and fulfilling.

Okay, that's a bit too much.

Li Wei checked the plan on the table to make sure he didn't forget anything:
Five full days of classes a week.

Every night, he and Camille engage in a battle of mind control—she is improving faster and faster, to the point that she is constantly stealing Li Wei's memories from his student days.

Fortunately, those were memories that Li Wei had chosen—just some past experiences practicing spells, and he didn't mind using this part as a reward for Jia Meier's progress in spells.

Moreover, understanding her own learning process of magic is also beneficial for her reflection on her own magical path.

Besides these two, there are also—

I lead the dueling club on Sunday mornings and the study group in the afternoons.

February is fast approaching, and he plans to begin introducing dark magic education to the three upper grades, followed by an additional dark magic group meeting every Saturday afternoon.

At the same time, Professor McGonagall showed no sympathy for what he had to do—or rather, every professor at Hogwarts basically experienced this level of teaching intensity, and Levi was no exception.

Therefore, Levi also had to be in charge of student confinement for 1-2 days every week evening—this was only because Professor McGonagall was considerate of Levi.

Although students are causing trouble less often these days, the methods and severity of their mischief are escalating.

If Filch were still the administrator here, he probably wouldn't be able to solve any problems.

However, precisely because the administrator was changed to Lupin—who was both responsible and skilled in magic, and had a good temper—a tradition even circulated among the students:
When you feel your magic is up to par, you don't want to spar with your peers, and you can't climb to higher floors in the Duel Tower, you have other options.

It's about taking a thoroughly enjoyable nighttime tour and engaging in a complete battle of wits with all the ghosts and portraits in the castle, including the gentle caretaker.

During this time, you cannot be discovered by anyone, otherwise it will be considered a failure—and the result of failure is nothing more than a period of confinement.

If you're lucky enough to meet Professor Li Wei, you might even be able to chat with him after completing your solitary confinement assignments and ask him no more than two questions.

Professor McGonagall remained dissatisfied with the students' nighttime outings.

However, Professor McGonagall felt it was necessary to give the children some outlets for relaxation, given their already considerable efforts—she was increasingly reluctant to punish them.

Each one of them was her precious darling.

Secondly, she can't go to Li Wei every time she encounters a problem—especially since Li Wei already addressed this issue once last year. Does she really want to keep bothering Li Wei with such trivial matters?

Professor McGonagall's pride as the vice-principal wouldn't allow her to do that—besides, since the headmaster of Hogwarts was pretty useless anyway, she figured that if she, as the vice-principal, wasn't very capable, she probably wouldn't be criticized too harshly.

Not to mention, the students love her to death now—she has unlimited rights to create facial expressions.

Right now, within Hogwarts, only her, Levi's, and Snape's expressions are the most popular.

As for Dumbledore—Professor McGonagall wishes him success at the Ministry of Magic.

In her view, Dumbledore was busy with international affairs and the Ministry of Magic—which was fine, but she did not approve of him neglecting his students because of it.

“Master, Headmaster Dumbledore wishes you to visit his office—and this is a letter from Horace Slughorn.”

Barton suddenly appeared two meters away from the dazed Levi, quickly walked over and handed the letter to Levi.

"Hmm—another unusual event." Li Wei turned his gaze away from the daily schedule, took the letter, and with just a thought, the envelope opened on its own, and small wings sprouted from the four corners and floated in front of him.

Li Wei didn't even need to look to know that Slughorn had made up his mind to return to Hogwarts—the letter contained not only polite words but also his curiosity and probing about Li Wei, like a curious child.

Dumbledore's reason for seeking him out was quite obvious—it was about changing professors.

When Li Wei arrived at the office, Professor McGonagall was also there, looking worried, as if she knew something.

"Li Wei, you've arrived."

Dumbledore's blue eyes looked somewhat tired behind his half-moon spectacles, and he gestured for Levi to sit down.

Professor McGonagall placed her hands tightly on her knees, her lips pressed together so tightly they were almost white.

“Horace has written,” Dumbledore said bluntly, gesturing to the letter on the table, adorned with an ornate wax seal. “He agrees to return, but on clear conditions—a stable teaching position befitting his status, and…”
Well, he hoped to have the opportunity to mentor some students he considered promising and relive some of the fun he had at the club.

At this point, Dumbledore's tone carried a hint of helplessness.

"His Slug Club will probably be restarted as well—but I don't think he can invite all the students at Hogwarts."

"Isn't this all something we foresaw? So have you thought it through regarding my previous proposal?"

A brief silence fell over the office.

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but speak, her voice tinged with suppressed emotion and a hint of anxiety:
“Albus, I think the best thing to do is to create a new elective course for him. This is the least likely way to cause a stir.”

"Yes—how should we do it?"

Dumbledore hesitated, then looked at Livy.

Li Wei's lips twitched. He didn't want to be the bad guy, but he was the one who brought it up, and he didn't like giving up on his point of view without even trying.

“Setting up an elective course is certainly an option—from a problem-solving perspective, it’s the best choice.”

I think Slughorn probably didn't have much motivation to teach; for him, the school was just another arena for fame and fortune.

As Levi said this, Professor McGonagall clenched her hands even tighter—she hadn't considered this aspect.

She also couldn't accept that Hogwarts nowadays would have professors applying for jobs there for reasons other than teaching—Trelawney was already a handful, let alone an even more outrageous socialite.
"So, it was a rather anticlimactic decision—we put a wizard who was well-versed in and adept at deconstructing modern magical history into a leisurely position."

Students are not receiving a proper education and are wasting seven years of their lives on core subjects.

"Waste. Is that how you view Professor Binns's course?"

Professor McGonagall stared at Levi in ​​shock—the statement was too harsh for her to bear; she couldn't believe Levi would say something so hurtful.
Although, deep down she felt that Li Wei was right.
"Students today can gain more knowledge by studying the Bible on their own than they would in a history of magic class. I think you'll understand once you look into it a little."

They now use that class to dawdle or learn other things.

"Alright, Minerva, do you believe me now? Levi is a completely inhuman guy."

Dumbledore pointed at Livy, his words sharp, yet a smile played on his lips.

Before Li Wei arrived, he had already spent a full hour persuading Professor McGonagall.
Professor McGonagall's views were exactly the same as his original ones, but precisely because of this, he was completely unable to persuade her.

"Don't give me that!" Professor McGonagall glared at Dumbledore. "Levi's intentions are for the good of the students, completely different from your pedantry! He's playing the bad guy for the sake of Hogwarts' education, how can you say that about him?"

"."

Dumbledore's smile froze on his face.
