The shadow of playing away from home loomed over them.
High in the sky, the Chimera reverted to human form, and Levin plummeted straight to the ground.
The entire audience gasped in unison, as if a pause button had been pressed, creating an eerie silence.
Just then, a gleaming fire bolt shot swiftly from the entrance in response to the summoning spell. Levin caught it with one hand in mid-air, performed a clean flip, and rode the fire bolt straight into the sky.
Instantly, another wave of applause and cheers erupted throughout the stadium, and Levin received the loudest applause and cheers.
"Levin, Levin, Levin..."
The young wizards at Hogwarts roared Levin's name over and over again, using all their strength to express the shock and pride in their hearts!
"Dawn Wesley! Indira Chaudhry! Dennis Frisby! And finally, Bryce Parkin—"
Bryce Parkin rode her signature silver Nimbus 2000 onto the field, receiving a cheer that was second only to Levine's.
"Being good at acrobatics doesn't guarantee you'll win the competition!"
Ron glanced at Harry, who was standing not far away, his face flushed with excitement, clapping and shouting Levin's name. He muttered something under his breath.
"Ireland's defense and offense are arguably the best in the world. Mallett, Troy, and Moran are all top-class chasers. Lynch, even if he's not as good as Krum, is about the same level as Parkin. I don't think Levin and his team can win," Terry Boot analyzed seriously.
Not only the spectators in the stands, but even the Irish team hovering high in the air were discussing Levin.
"This Levin Green is very skilled. Judging from that move just now, his 'broom-passing' move is most likely real. But it doesn't matter. Quidditch is a game for seven people. Individual skill can't beat teamwork. If we work together, try to score, and defend well, I believe the final victory will definitely belong to us."
Ireland's captain and chaser, Troy, promptly encouraged his team, and his players nodded in agreement.
"And we also want to thank our referee today, Arthur Laws!"
A strong and capable wizard strode towards the arena, a silver whistle hanging around his neck.
Arthur blew his whistle, and the match officially began.
"Ah, he—he—he—they're off!" Bagman screamed. "It's Levin Green with the ball! Cerella! Avery! Pass to Cerella again! Levin Green!"
Almost none of the young wizards at Hogwarts had ever seen such a wonderful Quidditch match.
This month-long national team training camp was not only a process for Levin and Cerira to adapt to the new team, but also a process for the team to gradually adapt to Levin's tactics.
Hamish already admired Ravenclaw's tactics during the game, and after talking with Levin, he was even more amazed by the series of tactics.
Thus, these tactics learned from Muggle sports were successfully incorporated into the national team's system.
Facing a world-class team, Levin fully utilized his run-and-gun tactics. The speed of the three chasers was simply unbelievable—they flew continuously, passing the Quaffle to each other at such a speed that Bagman could only call out their names.
The match was intense from the start, with both sides showing no mercy in their battles.
The deafening roar of the audience assaulted Levin's ears, but compared to their fervent enthusiasm, Levin remained remarkably calm.
He could feel the Irish team's attention to him; almost every moment a batsman was watching his every move.
As long as he has the ball, two Irish chasers will double-team him, while the ball will fly towards him.
However, they overlooked Cerella, Levin's best partner.
When Levin got the ball again
He also saw three Irish chasers speeding close together, with Troy in the middle, and Mallett and Moran a little ahead, all three closing in on him.
"It's the Eagle Head attack formation!" Bagman roared.
But Levin didn't slow down at all, charging head-on towards the eagle's head, seemingly wanting to confront them head-on.
"Does he want to go head-to-head right from the start? That's not a wise choice!" Bagman sighed.
To outsiders, the underage Levin was smaller than the tall Irishman and was outnumbered three to one, so he would definitely suffer a great loss if they ran into each other.
In fact, despite being smaller, Levin's physical attributes, given that he acquired Bush's physical abilities, would only put him at a disadvantage in a direct confrontation.
However, he did not intend to use such a reckless tactic.
A split second before the two collided, Levin tossed the Quaffle upwards, simultaneously canceling the lift from his broom and plummeting downwards like a free fall.
In a split second, both the man and the ball disappeared from the sight of the Irish chasers.
By the time the Irishmen realized what was happening, the Quaffle had somehow appeared in Ciri's hands.
The Eagle Head offensive formation has failed.
"Well done!" Ludo clenched his fist.
While running side-by-side can effectively intercept opponents, it also means that other chasers will be left unmarked!
Connolly's smile froze on his face. He rushed forward and slammed the ball hard at Ciri.
Sherella completely ignored the oncoming ball and continued to fly the Quaffle toward Ireland's goal.
Ireland's batter Quigley threw the ball diagonally from below, slamming it down on his teammate's missed run and then hitting it back towards Cirira.
The Irish Quidditch players quickly retreated to defense.
Ireland's Chaser Lynch successfully blocked Cirira's path, watching intently.
Cyril immediately threw a Quaffle, and Levin, who happened to be below her, caught it.
"Yin Guo team scores! It's Levin, Green—" Bagman roared, and the whole stadium erupted in cheers and applause, shaking the stadium. "10-0, Yin Guo team takes the lead!"
Everyone was stunned by the performance of the Irish team. The Irish team was clearly the best Quidditch team at scoring in the regular game, but they were already down by one point at the start!
After scoring, Cai Wen circled the field, twirling his right hand near his ear before waving to the audience.
The gesture seemed to be saying to everyone: Let me hear your cheers, let me hear your applause!
Cho, Hermione, and Penelope screamed excitedly and waved their arms incessantly.
Even Luna waved a flag in support of Levin.
The three fire dragons rose into the air again, simultaneously spewing flames upwards.
Under the influence of magic, the flames breathed by the red dragon were not orange-red, but a beautiful magenta, while the flames breathed by the two white dragons turned white.
Three dragon breaths side by side formed the pattern of the Yin Kingdom team.
The Irish people finally got to see two newcomers from the British national team.
They had to admit that each of them was a top-notch chaser, not to mention their seamless teamwork and perfectly coordinated movements, as if they could read each other's minds.
They've met their match.
The competition then became even more intense and brutal.
Despite the best efforts of the Irish players, the score gap between them and England continued to widen.
Who told them to run into a cheater?
While the players battled it out, the Seekers from both sides also roamed the field, searching for the signal that the Golden Snitch had appeared.
During the month of training, she had fully understood the abilities of these two newcomers.
As the chasers, their flying and dodging skills were even better than hers, the seeker.
The most impressive thing is Levin's ability to find the Golden Snitch.
Only if gold could play a greater role would the project be abandoned.
But after that, Levin took on the same task as in Ravenclaw, helping the Seekers find the Golden Snitch.
Following Levin's 2.9 instructions, Parkin quickly flew towards the Golden Snitch.
The audience inside the stadium clearly noticed this as well, and a series of loud and unified cheers rang out throughout the arena.
Lin Qi was also paying attention to her situation.
He immediately flew in the direction Parkin had flown, with Irish batsman Connolly close behind.
Connolly's ball flew through the air, heading straight for Parkin's head.
Parkin was forced to slow down and dodge, giving Lynch the upper hand.
However, as Lynch tried to catch the Golden Snitch, Levin appeared in front of him.
Lynch was forced to slow down.
In that brief moment, the golden thief vanished without a trace once again.
"Ireland scores!" Bagman shouted just as the Irish fans were sighing in despair.
Although the fans are still disappointed, this is at least a small consolation.
Lynch at least distracted the batter, which helped his teammates break through and score.
But immediately, their expressions changed.
After receiving the Quaffle, goalkeeper Dennis didn't hesitate to launch a long-range shot towards Ireland's half of the field.
Before the Irish could react, Cerella and Levine, who had just been intercepting Lynch, both appeared in Ireland's half of the field.
It was Levine's classic long pass fast break.
Irish goalkeeper Barry Ryan was forced to face two pursuers one-on-one in an open space, and was powerless to resist as the ball broke through his defense, widening the gap from just 10 points.

Chapter 265 Victory in the Preliminaries
As time went on, the Irish team's mentality deteriorated.
They discovered that whenever Levin spotted the Golden Snitch, the opposing batter would also spot it. Bryce Parkin of the Yin Kingdom team was unusually good today, spotting the Golden Snitch on the opposing team. Faced with this, they had no choice but to chase after him, giving the Yin Kingdom team another scoring opportunity.
The score gap between the two sides continued to widen.
Currently, the Indian team leads the Irish team by ninety points.
If things continue like this, Yin Guo will soon be able to widen the score gap to over 160 points.
"They're about to break 100!" Ireland's Troy, glancing at his sweat-drenched teammates, silently calculated, "We can't let them succeed."
As a de facto away game, the team has been under a lot of pressure.
Once the point difference reaches 0-8, the team's morale is likely to collapse.
Gradually, his eyes hardened, flashing with an indomitable flame.
He gripped the Quake ball tightly and, at the fastest speed he had seen in the game, hurtled towards the Yin Kingdom team's goal like a whirlwind.
The batters from the Underworld, Dawn and Indira, used all their skills to fiercely hit the ball at Troy, trying to stop his advance.
