Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

Then his gaze fell on Jelf. Although the other was talking about love, it wouldn't hurt to interrupt him.

Um, it's nothing.

“Jeref, I have something to ask you.”

Upon hearing this, the two turned their heads and looked at each other with questioning eyes.

Repeating the previous question, Jelf thought seriously for a moment and said, "Increase the difficulty? I do have a suggestion..."

"Add some difficulty, for example, when facing different enemies, you can set different difficulty levels, increase gravity, obstruct vision, etc."

It's similar to adding traps, but it can be modified slightly. You need to think carefully about how to set it up.

After saying this, Fang Rui bid farewell to the two men and left.

Heading to the area where other guests are located...

The guest quarters are housed in recently constructed buildings, built using Transfiguration...

As for the furnishings inside, they were purchased.

Due to price differences between different worlds, the prices of various daily necessities vary, therefore the daily necessities in the house come from different worlds.

Furthermore, the layout of houses varies depending on the world.

This is a ninja group, and the architectural style of their buildings is similar to that of the Marine Headquarters...

"Yo! Tsunade, you've arrived~" Fang Rui greeted.

"Oh!" Tsunade responded, then asked, "Do you know where to place bets?"

"Hmm, it probably isn't at Hogwarts. You'll need to check somewhere else."

Fang Rui slowly shook his head. This is a school. Even if it were to open for sale, it wouldn't be here.

"Is that so..." Tsunade was a little troubled. She didn't know much about this world and might cause trouble.

"How about I become the bookmaker and open a betting pool?" Tsunade asked.

“That’s fine too, it’s for the guests.” Fang Rui had no objection and steered the conversation back on track, “I’d like to ask if you have any suggestions regarding the competition format?”

"Suggestion? How about adding a team format?" Ignoring Fang Rui's question, Tsunade thought of the team competitions that were frequently used in the Chunin Exams, and it was normal for several people to team up to challenge each other.

"Teaming up is a good suggestion." Fang Rui nodded slightly, thinking about where he could join a team...

The first event is an elimination round, so there's no need to join a team. If you want to join, you can only do so in the second or third round...

After saying goodbye to Tsunade, Fang Rui did not continue to look for others. Instead, he returned to the castle, found Dumbledore, and talked to him about the information he had gathered.

"Be careful not to go too far." Dumbledore said, not rejecting Fang Rui's advice. "The task at hand is now in your hands."

“No problem.” Fang Rui immediately agreed, then moved on to another matter, “How do you plan to entertain the guests during their stay at Hogwarts?”

"Hmm, I haven't decided yet," Dumbledore answered truthfully.

He had prepared standard hospitality options, such as hot springs, but he hadn't decided whether the guests would be satisfied or whether to add other entertainment options.

"How about I handle it?" Fang Rui asked.

Dumbledore cast a surprised look at Fang Rui, who seemed a little too diligent; there was something wrong with him.

"I have no opinion."

As Dumbledore said this, he decided to send someone to follow Fang Rui so that if the other party caused any trouble, they could stop him in time.

Fang Rui did not linger there. He left the castle and wandered around the Black Lake, thinking about how to arrange entertainment activities.

There's no need for overly novel activities; it's better to arrange some regular ones. After all, he might not be able to appreciate something truly unique...

With that in mind, Fang Rui had an idea: he would arrange the activities according to the theme of eating, drinking, and having fun.

Without contacting anyone else, Fang Rui began selecting a location to set up the entertainment facilities.

The area around Black Lake is filled with housing for entertaining guests; there are no vacant areas.

The area on the way to Hogsmeade Village is not suitable for building recreational facilities, even though there are no houses there. The terrain is rather bad. This area has other uses.

Arriving at the cliff where Hogwarts Castle is located, Fang Rui surveyed the surroundings and decided to build entertainment facilities here.

Fang Rui possessed a considerable number of techniques that could be used for construction. After sketching out a simple design, he began construction...

First, the foundation was built using earth-attribute skills. The ground began to shake violently, and soil and rocks rose from the water. The terrain near the cliff began to change slowly, but it did not affect the castle on the cliff.

"what's the situation?"

The tremor traveled quite far, and the students in the castle cried out in panic, while the professors left the castle and rushed to the location where the tremor came from. When they saw Fang Rui, they immediately understood.

Meanwhile, guests from other worlds also clearly felt the tremors and turned their attention to the epicenter.

"Oh, it's Fang Rui!"

Upon hearing this, many people looked enlightened, but they didn't pay any attention to the matter and continued with what they had been doing.

Others, who were more concerned, went to where Fang Rui was.

Ignoring the actions of others, Fang Rui continued building the house. The earth and stones gradually changed shape, and the wood grew rapidly, filling the empty spaces.

It was very efficient; a building was completed in the blink of an eye. The building itself was nothing special; it was just an ordinary building.

People watching from the sidelines would occasionally offer their opinions, such as what type of house looked good or what decorations to add.

Before long, buildings began to appear along the lake.

Fang Rui looked around for a while and was quite satisfied, so he continued to make other buildings.

Finding nothing amiss, the others gradually left, leaving only a small group behind to quietly watch Fang Rui construct the building and offer their opinions according to their own preferences.

Some people said nothing, simply watching quietly, occasionally glancing towards the castle...

Chapter 408 Setting up the racetrack

About an hour later, all the buildings were completed. As for the interior decoration, others would have to take care of it. The supervision was left to his clone, while he himself went to other castles.

Inside the castle, professors from other magic schools wore serious expressions. The commotion caused by someone building a house was beyond the capabilities of ordinary wizards, raising their suspicions.

"Such strength is quite formidable." The professor from Beauxbatons School of Magic had a very serious expression as he guessed why the other party was displaying their strength.

'To demonstrate strength and intimidate?'

Doubts arose in his mind, but he didn't voice them. Instead, he sought out professors at other schools.

The same doubts arose in the minds of professors from other schools as well. A group of professors gathered together, looked at each other for a while, and exchanged opinions.

"The competition is for students; what's the point of professors showcasing their abilities?"

"To deter us? What's the reason?"

The relationships between magic schools are relatively good, and the competition isn't that serious, since they are, after all, regional organizations.

"I don't know." Many people shook their heads directly.

"Go ask Dumbledore and see what he has to say," someone suggested.

The others had no objections and went to Dumbledore to inquire about the matter.

"...They must be setting up the venue," Dumbledore guessed.

"Should be..." The professors from the other schools were speechless. You're the principal! How could you not know what the faculty and staff are doing? Even a hands-off manager doesn't operate like this!

"Ahem..." Dumbledore coughed a few times and said, "Let me ask around."

Using the Patronus to transmit the message, Professor McGonagall, having received the message, came from outside the castle to Dumbledore and the others.

"Professor McGonagall, what is Mr. Fang Rui doing?" Dumbledore asked directly, without any attempt to hide anything.

“They’re building houses.” Professor McGonagall was one of the people who went outside the castle to scout the situation. From the shape of the houses, she had a vague idea, but she didn’t ask Fang Rui for his opinion in detail, so her answer was somewhat ambiguous.

Upon hearing this, the professors from other schools, combining what Dumbledore had said earlier with the idea that Fang Rui was setting up the venue, put aside some of their thoughts, but still felt that something was amiss.

"Ahem, you've come at the perfect time. Let me tell you about the first competition event so you can prepare..."

Seeing the thoughtful crowd, Dumbledore quickly changed the subject: "The first competition is to snatch the golden eggs."

“The golden egg is guarded by ‘magical creatures,’ and contestants need to seize the golden egg to qualify for the next round.”

"As for the selection of participants, my initial idea was to use the Goblet of Fire, but then I thought, since this event is so large in scale, why not try a different selection method..."

"What are you planning to do?" the professors from the other schools asked.

“Let’s use a simple competition to select the participants,” Dumbledore said. “A written test and a practical exam, the average score will be taken, and those who pass will be eligible to participate in the tournament. What do you think?”

"I have no objection, but who are you planning to ask to set the written test questions?" a professor asked.

"With so many of us, is it really that much trouble to come up with some questions?" Dumbledore retorted.

"It's no trouble at all." Many people slowly shook their heads.

They have some experience in setting exam questions, after all, they are teachers who impart knowledge.

"In that case, is that the decision?" Dumbledore asked.

"Okay," everyone agreed.

The group then left to prepare for the upcoming preliminary rounds.

Professor McGonagall did not linger there; she quickly wrote down the relevant information and posted it on the bulletin board.

The students gathered around the bulletin board, looking at the information posted there.

"The preliminary rounds for the championship consisted of a written test and a practical competition..."

"There's no age requirement!"

The students were surprised to say that many of the younger students were eager to participate in the competition and make a name for themselves.

However, there are also rational people who know that their strength is only average and have no intention of participating in the championship.

"Harry, are you going to participate in the Tournament?" Ron asked, nudging Harry with his elbow. He himself seemed eager to participate.

"Me? I haven't thought about it..." Harry scratched his head. With his mother living with him, his personality had changed somewhat. He was no longer as impulsive as before, and his grades had also improved rapidly.

“I will participate,” Hermione said from the side. In her view, this tournament was a place to test what she had learned.

In particular, she heard that this competition was "insured" and had a very low risk factor, unlike previous competitions where the casualty rate was very high.

"Huh? You're going to participate?!" Ron was very surprised. Hermione had been holding a book and rarely participated in activities, yet she was going to participate in the tournament.
