Chapter 39: The Correct Way to Open a Flying Broomstick

"Let me correct you first: it's not me bullying them, but them bullying me. I was just defending myself."

Chu Yang did not retreat because of Snape's anger. He kept his eyes on the other party and retorted neither humbly nor arrogantly, "When they pick up their wands, I will of course also pick up my wand to fight back. We are all wizards, is it possible that only they know magic?"

Snape sneered, "Can you guarantee that your spells are as good as your fists?"

Chu Yang shrugged, his face full of ease, "Won't we know when the time comes? Don't worry, if there is a result, I will report to you immediately."

Snape knew why Chu Yang was so fearless. Just now, Professor McGonagall had explained to him that any retaliatory behavior by Chu Yang in Slytherin was tacitly approved by Headmaster Dumbledore.

"If you are serious, then I admire your courage." Snape turned around indifferently, walked toward the podium, and said loudly, "Disrespecting professors, ignoring elders, Slytherin loses 5 points!"

Chu Yang was full of surprise.

Good heavens, Snape was really anxious. It was the first time he had seen him deduct points from his own house!

Within this day, Slytherin had deducted 10 points because of Chu Yang! In terms of point deduction, he was already walking ahead of the trio.

Could I become a new point-deduction giant? As everyone knows, the three giants usually have four people, and the four heavenly kings usually have five people...

Only in the matter of point deduction, Chu Yang didn't want to keep pace with the three of them.

The first Potions class of the school year was exceptionally heavy. Snape, who was already in a bad temper, paced around every freshman like a god of death while teaching. The sound of his leather shoes stepping on the floor was particularly clear.

After a class, Snape didn't look at Chu Yang straight.

He thought this might put some pressure on Chu Yang, but he underestimated Chu Yang's level of psychological maturity.

Snape's ability to intimidate students was far inferior to Chu Yang's high school head teacher, and not even as good as the PE teacher.

Every student who has experienced compulsory education can adapt well to the teaching intensity of Hogwarts.

Only local British people would feel the pressure.

As soon as class ended, all the freshmen scrambled to escape the classroom. On the contrary, Chu Yang, who had a conflict with Snape, packed his textbooks slowly and was the last one.

"Thank you for today's class, Professor Snape. I learned a lot of things that are not in the textbook." Chu Yang bowed slightly and then turned to leave.

Watching Chu Yang's departing back, Snape's frost-like face gradually eased.

Snape's expression gradually became trance-like, and he muttered, "If I had been as brave as him back then, Lily might have..."

In the empty classroom, only Snape's voice echoed for a long time.

Lunch break arrived. After experiencing the mental torture of the morning, the first-year freshmen finally had time to buffer their ups and downs.

In the Great Hall, the freshmen subconsciously sat in positions far away from Chu Yang. After learning that Chu Yang had PK'd so many boys alone, he had already left an impression that was not bright in everyone's hearts.

As for the deeds of non-pure-blood against pure-blood, they would not be crowned with the title of heroic here.

Even if the concept of pure-blood and non-pure-blood is thrown aside, no one wants to have a connection with Chu Yang, because he offended too many people this time!

You must know that the students who enter Slytherin all have considerable energy behind them. That is the cradle of pure-blood wizards! Chu Yang knew this very well, and he was not naive enough to hate those who stayed away from him because of this. Avoiding evil and seeking good is human instinct.

But what surprised Chu Yang was that someone suddenly sat in the seat opposite him.

Neither Hermione, nor Harry and Ron.

It was Neville Longbottom!

Neville took the food and said with a silly smile, "I didn't have time to thank you when crossing the lake, and now I have the opportunity."

"You are welcome." Chu Yang propped his face with one hand and tapped the table lightly with the other, "Are you sure you want to sit here?"

Neville immediately said in a panic, "I'm sorry, if you don't like me sitting here, I can change places." "That's not what I meant." Chu Yang waved his hand and explained, "You are so close to me, aren't you afraid that they will isolate you just like they isolate me?"

Neville scratched his head and said, "No, they just don't understand you. After a while, they will know they misunderstood you."

Chu Yang was amused. Listening to his tone, this guy made it seem like he knew himself very well.

Suddenly, there were some more little wizards beside Chu Yang's seat.

Unsurprisingly, it was the point-deduction trio.

"There are some places in this book that I don't understand. Teach me." Hermione put a very thick book in front of Chu Yang. Although she was asking questions, from her attitude, it didn't seem like that at all.

Harry and Ron also sat naturally opposite Chu Yang, playing around, and occasionally asking Chu Yang about the "battle details" last night.

"I heard Goyle say that you kicked Blaise flying with one kick!" Ron asked very excitedly, "Did you really not use magic?"

Chu Yang smiled, "The wand is in the box, I didn't have a chance to take it, of course it wasn't magic."

Ron sighed, "You are really strong!"

After the three of them sat down and started chatting, not long after, Ron's brothers also sat down next to them, and the area around Chu Yang began to become "normal."

Fred and George winked at Chu Yang.

Obviously, they knew about his "feat," and the two kept asking questions, making this area lively immediately.

Afterward, a crisp chirping sound rang out above the Great Hall, and countless owls flew in from the skylight, with things hanging from their mouths and claws.

"Hey! The mail is here!"

The surprised shout made Chu Yang realize that it was the students' family express delivery. Speaking of which, would it be very profitable to open an express company using owls to deliver light express items?

A newspaper fell in front of Ron and Harry's table. After asking, the latter opened it impatiently.

Chu Yang vaguely remembered... this newspaper reported the theft of Gringotts. The original vault contained the Sorcerer's Stone that could make people immortal, which was taken out in advance by Hagrid dispatched by Dumbledore.

The attention of the point-deduction trio was all attracted by that newspaper, but they didn't know that the things inside were lying quietly in Hogwarts.

The first class in the afternoon was Madam Hooch's flying class, and the freshmen had long been unable to suppress the throbbing in their hearts.

Flying is the ultimate dream of mankind, and both wizards and Muggles are fascinated by it.

Madam Hooch walked through the freshmen with big strides and said loudly, "Welcome to your first flying lesson in your life."

"Please put your right hand above the broom, then say 'up', control the broom to fly into your hand. This is the first step for you to establish a connection with the flying broom."

As she spoke, Madam Hooch felt something was wrong, because someone among the students jumped directly onto the broom, stepped on the flying broom with both feet, and made a weird posture.

In her horrified eyes, the boy with an Eastern face shouted! "Up!"

Good news.

The broom really flew up!

Bad news.

The person is standing on it and flying!!!
