Chapter 675: Determine the Contestants

This spell can't restrict Ilya, whose real age is seventeen years old, but Ilya knows that the quota for this competition has been determined by default, and she doesn't have the opportunity to participate.

"Can't Professor Dumbledore add a few more seats?"

"There are only three contestants in the first place, and there are already many Harry Potters. If there are more...will it become a big melee?"

Ethan rubbed his chin, thinking this is quite interesting, the magic version of the Hunger Games? But Dumbledore obviously won't agree - the more people there are, the more likely there will be accidents.

If there is one more person, and in addition to Harry, there is Ethan, a player who does not meet the age requirements, which is still within the acceptable range of the Ministry of Magic; War, which they cannot accept anyway.

Even if you want to accept it, you can't do it. The game process has been set, and the preparations are going on step by step. How to adjust when it suddenly becomes a big melee? All the previous preparations were in vain?

"Unfortunately, it's rare to have something interesting."

For Illya, the Triwizard Tournament is an interesting thing, although she doesn't know what the content of this game is.

The prescribed time for registration passed quickly, and on the day when the registration was due, Dumbledore, the professors of the school, and Barty Crouch all appeared next to the Goblet of Fire.

The students also gathered here consciously, including the students from the other two colleges, who also found their own seats and waited quietly for the Goblet of Fire to announce the contestants for this Triwizard Tournament.

As in the original plot, Dumbledore first said a few words, and then waved his hand to dim the flames in the entire hall, only the faint blue light from the Goblet of Fire was the most conspicuous.

Following Dumbledore's actions, the blue flame in the Goblet of Fire suddenly turned red, and then a piece of parchment was 'vomited' out by the Goblet of Fire.

Victor Krum and Fleur Delacour were selected without any surprises.

Ethan didn't know what the Goblet of Fire's selection criteria were, but these two were representatives of their respective colleges, and almost no one would be dissatisfied with the selection of these two people.

As for Hogwarts... Cedric Diggory, one of the senior students, would indeed have the qualifications to represent Hogwarts if there had been no intervention, but unfortunately he would not have this opportunity now.

"The last contestant to compete is..."

Dumbledore waited seriously for the Goblet of Fire's choice, then he was stunned for a moment after catching the parchment, and then glanced at Ethan thoughtfully.

"Good acting!"

Ethan gave Dumbledore a thumbs up in his heart. Dumbledore's reactions and actions were all very natural, as if he was really surprised by the name on the parchment.

If it wasn't for sure that the parchment with his own name on it was spit out this time, Ethan would have wondered if Harry Potter's name had been spit out in advance.

"Ethan... Arendelle!"

All the students' eyes were on Ethan, and the people in Slytherin House had already started cheering.

Ethan threw the parchment into the Goblet of Fire in front of almost everyone, and the attempts of many junior students ended in failure afterwards (including Ron's twin brothers), which proved Ethan's strength.

So at this time, no one felt that it was inappropriate to choose Ethan, even the other two schools did not express their dissatisfaction: it is obviously beneficial to their own side to choose a lower grade, why should they jump out and object?

"Wait a minute, Ethan is not old enough to be a player."

Professor McGonagall immediately stood up and expressed objection. As one of the people who knew the inside story, Professor McGonagall certainly would not doubt Ethan's strength. Of course, she did this for acting.

"The choice of the Goblet of Fire is magically binding..."

After some arguments, Barty Crouch insisted on letting the game continue, and at this moment, the Goblet of Fire spit out a piece of parchment again, Dumbledore caught the piece of parchment in a hurry, and read Out of the above name.

"Harry... Potter..."

The situation became more interesting. The Goblet of Fire spit out the names of two Hogwarts students in a row, and neither of them had reached the age of seventeen. This situation made Barty Crouch very difficult, but he still Adhere to the normal progress of the Triwizard Tournament.

It's nothing more than three people becoming four people.

As for whether the players will encounter any danger during the game? Maybe this guy didn't even think about it.

After some debate, it was determined that the Goblet of Fire would no longer spit out new names. The four players went to the specially prepared place to meet, and then they could go back to make final preparations for the real Triwizard Tournament.

Since Victor and Fleur left the hall and came into this room after their names were read, the two of them didn't know what happened before, but heard some arguments.

Ethan and Harry walked in, making them a little confused.

"This... Which of you is a Hogwarts player?"

Harry turned his head and glanced at Ethan next to him. In fact, he was in a dazed state until now. He didn't understand what happened at all, and he didn't understand why he was here.

"Both."

Fu Rong tilted her head and looked at the two 'little brothers' in front of her: "Are you... seventeen years old?"

"Um... fourteen years old."

Harry didn't think too much, and directly stated his age.

Ethan still didn't answer, because he was too casual. Since his appearance was solidified, he didn't deliberately calculate his age.

In addition to staying in this world for a period of time and that world for a period of time, it is not easy to sort out how many years he has passed, anyway, the number should not be very small.

"Fourteen?"

Victor looked at the two young men from Hogwarts with a strange expression on his face. He wondered how they were chosen by the Goblet of Fire?

Could it be that the people of Hogwarts have tampered with it? That's not right, how can there be no reason to not let outstanding senior students play, but instead send two lower grade students? Did you send two over at once?

They wanted to ask more questions, so as to better understand the two next opponents, but Dumbledore and others soon came here, and then Dumbledore once again showed his superb acting skills: he seriously asked Did Harry secretly sign up by himself? Or what means do you use to get others to sign up for you?

Harry could only keep shaking his head to show that he didn't do those things, and he didn't know why it happened.

In contrast, Ethan on the side just needs to watch the show quietly, because everyone present knows how he does it, but they didn't expect the Goblet of Fire to really spit out his name.

"how did you do it?"

"what?"

Several professors kept asking questions around Harry Potter, and Victor and Fleur were squeezed to the periphery, as if they had nothing to do with this Triwizard Tournament.

Fu Rong looked around and remembered that Ethan had thrown his name into the Goblet of Fire in front of many people, ignoring the age restriction.

At that time, I just thought that this young Hogwarts student was a little capable, but thinking about it now, maybe what he did at that time was not just 'sign up', but what he did so that the Goblet of Fire would definitely select him.

"Take out the parchment, write your name on it, and throw it into the Goblet of Fire."

Everything Ethan said was the truth, but Fu Rong didn't believe it, thinking that Ethan didn't want to tell her, or was just being wary of her competitor.

So the next few people didn't have any conversations. In the chaos, the Triwizard Tournament began.

The entire Triwizard Tournament will run through the entire school year, and there are only three games in it, but each game requires a long enough preparation time, and at the same time, there will be enough recovery time for the players after each game.

Therefore, there is no need to worry that the players' physical strength will not be able to keep up with consecutive games, or they may be injured and affect the performance of the next game.

In short, the schedule of the Triwizard Tournament is very loose, and it has been set aside for a long enough time...Ethan felt a little boring even if it was so long.

Compared to the others who had no idea what the first match would be, Ethan clearly knew that their first match would be to face an adult fire dragon.

Of course, it wasn't a problem for Ethan. Even if he didn't need coercion to scare the fire dragon, he could beat the fire dragon in this world into a worm if he faced him head-on.

Just before the actual start of the game, Ethan found himself in another trouble.

Since he became the representative player of Hogwarts, his popularity has increased rapidly in the academy. Although he was already well-known, he has not been greeted by people everywhere he goes like now—more importantly, , many of them were not Slytherin students, which was unimaginable in the past.

"If you're not a Slytherin, everyone will be happy to say hello and cheer you on."

When Hermione came out of another corridor, she happened to meet Ethan. Seeing Ethan curiously looking at those students who greeted her and those who didn't, she explained to him: "After all, Slytherin House... Cough, you understand."

The reputation and popularity of the Slytherin house were just like that, and Ethan was not surprised by this.

"You have something to do with me?"

"Actually, Harry has something to do with you, and he's there."

Because the cheater Ethan broke the rules first, Harry Potter's treatment in the academy was better than in the original plot, at least not to the point where he would be ridiculed by the students wherever he went.

There are even many students who hate Slytherin firmly support Harry Potter, hoping that he will win on behalf of Hogwarts. Also down.
