Being at Hogwarts, something's not right with this system.

When Lin Yu entered the dining room with Wood at dusk, they immediately attracted the attention of some people.

For example, the Weasley twins.

They are very interested in Lin Yu now, or rather, they have a good impression of him. If this were in China, they would probably want to drag Lin Yu into a sworn brotherhood on the spot.

"Wood? What are you doing with Lin Yu?" George asked first, and it seemed they had a good relationship.

Actually, this is because the twins are also two members of the team.

Lin Yu had already heard about the team's current situation from Wood.

In the current Gryffindor team, Wood serves as both captain and goalkeeper.

The twin brothers are the team's two batters.

As for the other three suitors, they are: Aria Spinnett, Angelina Jensen, and Katie Bell.

To Lin Yu's surprise, all three of his suitors were girls.

Even he thought Quidditch was dangerous, but unexpectedly, girls actually joined in.

Another characteristic of this generation of players is that they are all very young.

Lin Yu, needless to say, was still a freshman.

Katie Bell is actually only a second-year student; she only came to Hogwarts last year.

As for the remaining few, apart from Wood, they were all third-year students.

To put it bluntly, they were all under fifteen years old. No, except for Wood, everyone was under fourteen.

Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, "I hope we can all live a long, long life, and preferably none of us die in the competition. Let's try our best to live on."

"What is he talking about?" Fred looked at Lin Yu with a strange expression. "You've been so brave that you've almost offended the entire Slytherin. That's not like you."

George was still looking at Wood, waiting for his answer, because he seemed to have already guessed what was going on.

Wood looked at Lin Yu with a helpless expression. He had originally wanted to wait for Professor McGonagall's reply before announcing it, but he still said it: "Actually, Lin Yu has become our team's finder."

"Wow, really?"

A chorus of exclamations erupted around them, some questioning, others cheering.

In fact, when Lin Yu displayed his extraordinary prowess that day, single-handedly confronting everyone in Slytherin and even facing Snape directly, he had already won the hearts of everyone in Gryffindor.

After all, Gryffindor and Slytherin always disliked each other.

Especially Professor Snape, who openly favored his own house; although no one dared to say anything on the surface, everyone felt dissatisfied behind his back.

So even Lin Yu didn't expect that he might now be considered a minor celebrity?

It's no exaggeration to say that in Gryffindor's eyes, he was already comparable to Harry.

George and Fred were the two happiest, cheering and welcoming Lin Yu's arrival.

Lin Yu could only manage a wry smile; in truth, he no longer really wanted to join.

But Lin Yu seemed to sense something. He turned his head and saw Professor McGonagall looking at him from the teachers' seat, her eyes shining and a smile on her lips.

When their eyes met, Professor McGonagall even raised her wine glass in a gesture of greeting.

Lin Yu nodded in return, sighing inwardly.

It seems it's too late.

Indeed, Professor McGonagall persuaded Dumbledore to allow Lin Yu to join the Gryffindor team as an exception.

Okay, in order to survive, he might have to kill everyone else.

Lin Yu's lips curled slightly, revealing a cold smile.

As a result, a cold gaze was cast upon them.

It was Draco. He had also heard the cheers coming from Gryffindor, so he immediately stood up and walked over, standing straight in front of Lin Yu. He looked up and said, "Lin Yu, I'm not convinced. I challenge you to a duel."

Lin Yu actually found it a little funny? If Draco hadn't acted so arrogantly, he would even have found him somewhat endearing?

There's no way around it; Lin Yu's perspective is probably that of a man in his thirties, and in his eyes, the other person is just a cute little kid.

Lin Yu even felt a little regretful, because he had read some fanfiction before, which more or less included some BL (Boys' Love) elements.

After all, it's Harry Potter, so it's normal to have some female fans of BL (Boys' Love).

One person went so far as to change Draco's gender to female, which is... ridiculous.

Deha or Hadd has quite a large fan base.

This made Lin Yu feel somewhat unable to look at Draco.

Draco, however, became even more smug. He arrogantly declared, "This time, I'm going to have a wizard's duel with you, you know? The kind where you only use wands."

Lin Yu couldn't help but look at Draco with a kind smile, suddenly wanting to tease the child, so he agreed, "Of course, no problem. As you wish."

Draco panicked a little. Even he was just a first-year student; in fact, he was only an eleven-year-old child.

He originally just wanted to scare Lin Yu and show off his power to regain the face he had lost.

Lin Yu actually agreed?

Draco was now in a bit of a bind, but he could only grit his teeth and continue, "That's good, that's excellent. Then we can meet at midnight in front of the trophy gallery, since it's always unlocked. Also, my assistant is Crabbe, what about yours?"

Before Lin Yu could speak, a number of enthusiastic voices immediately came from behind him.

Twins, in particular, react the most strongly.

Draco was startled and quickly shouted, "This is a duel between first-year students; upperclassmen are not allowed to interfere."

He was probably too anxious, because his face turned a little red.

Lin Yu shrugged, turned to look at Harry and Ron, and clearly asked, "Which of you two will come?"

Ron shrugged as well, saying with a hint of helplessness, "Obviously it can only be me."

Draco glared at Lin Yu again before turning and leaving.

Suddenly, a voice came from the side: "That's why boys are so boring."

It was Hermione complaining; in fact, she had been sitting there the whole time, right next to Lin Yu.

It seems that their positions were fixed from the first day of school. Lin Yu was next to Hermione, and opposite him were Ron and Harry. On Hermione's other side were Lavender and Parvati, and next to Harry and Ron were Seamus, Neville, and others.

Lin Yu just smiled and didn't say anything.

Harry, on the other end, asked Ron, "What does it mean that wizards have assistants in their duels?"

Ron explained to Harry, "A wizard's duel is to use a wand to cast the spells they know on their opponent. As for the assistant, well, if one of the dueling wizards dies, the assistant will take their place."

"No," Hermione suddenly slammed her hand on the table, turning to look at Lin Yu seriously. "This is too dangerous. You can't go."

Ron wanted to add, "Don't worry, Hermione, Lin Yu and Malfoy don't know much magic yet. I bet it'll end up being a fistfight. But that Crabbe guy seems a bit muscular?"

Ron turned his head and glanced worriedly at a chubby boy in the Slytherin seat, trying to figure out if he and Lin Yu together could beat the other side.

Hermione stared intently at Lin Yu, her eyes seemingly calculating something.

Hermione thought she wouldn't let him die.
