"Gulu!"
Feeling the hot breath hitting their faces, everyone present couldn't help but swallow their saliva. They were all shocked by the momentum created by Ye Siyu.
"Of course, this is just a simple display of fire element magic. In addition to fireballs, you can also shape flames into raindrops." Ye Siyu ignored the shock of everyone present and continued to perform the next magic.
As he raised his right hand, a fire cloud appeared above his head, and raindrops condensed from flames fell down, instantly forming a sea of fire in the area in front of Ye Siyu.
"Is this war magic?" Dumbledore muttered seriously.
Ye Siyu's elemental magic, which was completely different from the magic he had learned before, had a great impact on him. It was the first time that he had seen magic with such huge destructive power, just like the missiles invented by humans.
As a powerful person in the magic world, he is familiar with all kinds of magic and knows very well that no magic in the current magic can cause as much damage as the elemental magic performed by Ye Siyu.
The previous Unforgivable Curses were just a game in front of Ye Siyu's elemental magic, and there was no comparison at all.
At this time, Dumbledore regretted letting Ye Siyu come to Hogwarts as a teacher.
He could imagine that if such magic became popular, the balance between magical society and ordinary human society might be broken, causing various situations.
In the wizarding world, there is no shortage of his past lover Gellert Grindelwald and his student Voldemort, who also feel that magic should not be hidden, but should lead society as a master, otherwise countless people would not have died after Voldemort issued the call. Respond and become a Death Eater.
But even so, most people don't dare to do this, but abide by the rules of the magic world. The reason why they do this is not because of love or rules, but because of lack of power.
They are not as powerful as Gellert Grindelwald and Voldemort who can compete with the entire wizarding world, nor do they have the charm to attract many people to join their ranks, so most people will not actually do it until they die. The most you can do is to be a strong talker.
And it’s not like ordinary humans are powerless. Guns that can easily take lives, missiles that can easily blow up a building, nuclear bombs that can easily destroy a city, and countless weapons that can destroy the world have been created.
Once the magic world conflicts with modern society, people in the magic world may gain the upper hand in a short period of time. However, magic is indeed magical, but it is not powerful enough to easily destroy human society. In addition, most of the magic world No one is a pure-blood wizard. Many people like Hermione have many Muggle relatives and friends. They will never let dark wizards rule the world. As time goes by, the wizarding world will definitely fail.
He has seen through this and has always supported the rules set by the Ministry of Magic. He is even one of the makers of these rules.
However, Ye Siyu's elemental magic is different. A glimpse of it reveals the whole thing. Although Ye Siyu only displays a small part of his magic, as a knowledgeable magician, he can see how terrifying Ye Siyu's magic is. .
Once this kind of magic is popularized, Dumbledore believes that there will definitely be many dark wizards willing to learn it.
He finally understood why Ye Siyu called elemental magic war magic. This was magic specially derived for combat. He could imagine how amazing the damage this magic would cause in battle.
"Principal, is it really okay for students to learn such magic?" McGonagall, who was next to Dumbledore, worriedly asked. She also saw the impact of Ye Siyu's magic.
Dumbledore did not answer because he did not know whether his original decision was correct.
When Dumbledore and other old magicians were troubled by Ye Siyu's elemental magic, Ye Siyu continued to perform elementary and advanced magic of different elements, which shocked everyone present, especially the male students. , cheering even more.
If gunball is the three most exciting things for boys in modern society, then magic, broomsticks and Quidditch are the most exciting things for boys in the wizarding world, be it gunball or magic broomstick Quidditch. , to put it bluntly, it is destruction, speed and entertainment, the three behaviors that can best arouse emotions.
The destructive power of the magic displayed by Ye Siyu now can definitely cause a surge of adrenaline in men.
"Professor Ye, is this elemental magic?" Hermione asked with some disappointment as the boys cheered.
Although some women like gun racing and ball as much as men, the vast majority of women prefer the latter two. As for the first one, most girls don't like it very much.
"Of course it's not just that. In addition to the magic I just showed specifically for combat, there are also many magics similar to the mirror space I used at the beginning, like the hand of this arcane magic mage." Ye Siyu said. While explaining, he condensed his magic power to form a huge mage's hand, and then made various gestures in front of everyone.
"Wow!"
Ye Siyu's magic once again caused everyone to exclaim. They once again realized the magic of the elemental magic taught by Ye Siyu.
"Ahem, Professor Ye, it's not too early, and it's almost time for the students to officially start class. Let's end this demonstration here." After Ye Siyu demonstrated several more daily magics, Dumbledore He interrupted.
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Ye Siyu nodded, and immediately removed the magic, returning the auditorium to its original appearance.
"Headmaster, can I ask another question?" At this time, Hermione spoke again.
"Miss Granger, it can only be a question.", Dumbledore agreed.
"Professor Ye, where is your wand?" Hermione immediately looked at Ye Siyu and asked.
As soon as Hermione's question came out, the students present also noticed this problem. They had always thought that Ye Siyu was a little weird when he used magic, but they couldn't tell what was weird for a while. Now Jing He When Min asked, they also discovered what was strange, that is, Ye Siyu did not hold a wand when casting magic.
When she was in the Leaky Cauldron, Hermione had heard that Ye Siyu could cast spells without a wand. She was very curious about this legendary ability. Now that she saw Ye Siyu, she would certainly not miss this opportunity to learn about it.
"Miss Granger, this question involves wandless casting, which is difficult to explain in a short time." Ye Siyu shook his head. He noticed that Dumbledore's eyes changed when he displayed elemental magic. I know I can't continue to show it.
After hearing this, Hermione also knew that her question was too abrupt, and immediately apologized: "Professor, I'm sorry, I'm just curious."
"It doesn't matter, I will explain this issue in class." Ye Siyu smiled.
"Thank you Professor Ye for your presentation. The opening ceremony is over. You can go back to rest and prepare for the next course." Dumbledore announced a few words, and then motioned for Ye Siyu to follow.
At the beginning, Dumbledore arranged for Ye Siyu to have two classes per grade per week. However, after seeing the magic displayed by Ye Siyu, Dumbledore felt that he needed to modify Ye Siyu's curriculum and reduce the number of classes. .
He could not let it flow out before he concluded whether elemental magic would harm the balance of the magic world and modern society.
In the end, he decided that Ye Siyu would change from teaching every grade every week to only teaching the second grade students like Harry and others who had just come into contact with magic but were not familiar with it to a certain extent. In this way, he could observe Ye Siyu's elements. Magic can prevent the widespread leakage of elemental magic.
Ye Siyu had no objection to Dumbledore's decision. Instead, he welcomed the decision with both hands and feet raised. His original purpose was not for teaching, but for investigation. Now this course arrangement can give Ye Siyu more time to explore Hogwart. This school, how could he object.
After deciding on the course schedule, Ye Siyu spent the next few days wandering around the school alone to become more familiar with the location of Hogwarts. On this day, it was also his time to officially teach.
Because of the opening ceremony, students met on the road would greet Ye Siyu and express their willingness to learn magic from Ye Siyu.
In addition to the systematic education method of schools, the most common teaching methods in the Harry Potter world are family inheritance and one-on-one master-disciple inheritance.
Although the Ministry of Magic stipulates that underage wizards cannot use magic before the age of eleven, most wizard families ignore this rule. Many students from wizard families will study systematically at home before entering school. They have knowledge of magic and even know how to use magic.
For example, Koizumi Anko is a typical representative. According to her, she never went to a magic school and was taught everything by her family.
Entering a magic school is mainly to cultivate connections, otherwise the knowledge accumulation of a single wizard family will definitely not be comparable to the systematic education of a magic school.
Apprenticeship is very common in the magic world. Some capable wizard families will help their children find teachers not long after they are born. The apprentices here are not teachers who have taught for several years in magic schools, but those who follow them. The teacher studies until he becomes a qualified teacher.
There are many smart people among the students. They can see at a glance how much potential the elemental magic taught by Ye Siyu has.
Ye Siyu refused all these people's requests. He didn't have time to be a master. Of course, if the other party could contribute some magic props or something, that would be possible.
Suddenly, Ye Siyu had some ideas. He felt that he could use elemental magic to exchange some magic props with some wizard families, so that he would not need to risk being attacked by the magic world to collect magic props.
While Ye Siyu was thinking, he had already arrived at his classroom, the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on the second floor.
Seeing Ye Siyu's arrival, the noisy classroom instantly became quiet. Everyone sat upright, trying their best to leave a good impression on Ye Siyu, the teacher.
"Dear students, although this is the first time for class, I don't think I need to introduce myself again, so let's start the first class directly. Today's class is very simple. You ask and I answer. You can ask all about elemental magic. The question I want to ask." Ye Siyu was also unambiguous and went straight to the topic, "Who will ask the first question."
"Me me me!"
"I asked!"
The students immediately raised their hands to be the first to ask questions.
"Miss Granger." Ye Siyu pointed at Hermione and said.
Hermione, who was called by Ye Siyu, smiled happily, stood up and asked her question, "Professor Ye, don't we have any books to learn elemental magic?"
For a top student like her, books are her favorite thing. Now Ye Siyu started teaching directly without giving out books or asking them to prepare books, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"No, elemental magic cannot be learned by relying on books." Ye Siyu shook his head.
Elemental magic is a magic modified by Ye Siyu based on the idealistic magic of this world. There is no specific spell, but more importantly, it depends on one's own will. The book is only a reference at most, and has no decisive role.
"Next, Mr. Potter." Ye Siyu pointed at Harry and said after answering Hermione's question.
"Professor Ye, what is wandless spellcasting?" Harry asked his question with a look of surprise on his face.
As soon as Harry asked this question, everyone looked at Ye Siyu, their ears raised high, for fear of missing a word.
The ability to cast spells without a wand has become the most popular issue in Hogwarts School after the opening ceremony. Apart from elemental magic, they have also asked teachers of other subjects. However, those teachers are the same as them about wandless casting. I have read it in books, but I don’t even have a partial understanding of it, so how can I possibly answer their question? This has attracted more and more people’s attention to this issue.
"Before answering this question, let me ask you a question first. Who can tell me what the wand does?" Ye Siyu did not answer immediately, but asked with a smile.
"A tool used by wizards to perform magic is made of wood wrapped with magical materials..." Hermione, as a top student, told her knowledge about wands bit by bit.
"Miss Granger, I'm asking about the function of the wand, not the information." Ye Siyu interrupted when Hermione was mid-sentence.
"The... function is..." Hermione, who was interrupted, suddenly panicked and kept thinking about the books she had read, trying to find the answer. However, after thinking for a long time, she couldn't think of a reason. .
