At Christmas time, Noah successfully made two moonstone brooches and gave them to his parents.
But his own part has not been completed yet. In fact, he has failed several times. At this time, he has to thank the existence of the repair spell to help him repair the stone so that he can try again and again.
A few months after the Christmas holidays, the little wizards had to worry about the upcoming exams.
The first-year wizards have also settled down a lot. Even the Weasley twins have temporarily settled down and devoted themselves to intense review.
Originally, this had nothing to do with Noah. In one year, he had successfully learned everything he needed to learn in third grade, so he was quite leisurely.
However, this too leisurely attitude may seem to others...too annoying.
So Noah was successfully arrested and helped his classmates find out and fill in the gaps.
"We are only in the first grade, and there are only a few spells to be tested. Most of them are written examination papers, so the most important thing is theoretical knowledge. Other than that, the only thing we have to worry about is the Potions class." Noah couldn't help but cover his head. He covered his forehead and said, "But in fact, except for the history of magic, the other things to be tested are clear at a glance."
He skillfully marked some contents on the book: "These must be must-test contents."
British teachers will not give him key points. These are the contents that Noah compiled after asking the senior students.
The teaching methods of wizards are relatively simple, and the only more avant-garde Professor Snape will inevitably follow a fixed process, so the exam content is basically the same every year.
It's just that few wizards realize this.
But unfortunately, Noah, who had been tortured by "exams", had gone through many battles and figured out the rules of Hogwarts' exams in advance, so he really didn't panic at all.
If he were a Gryffindor, he could just sell the answers to the test papers now.
However, the history of magic is really random. What they test on this thing really depends on the mood of their professor. Noah can only ask them to memorize the history of major events first.
In the eyes of all the young Slytherins who were "awed", Noah easily delineated the scope of the exam and highlighted the key points, helping these young Slytherins to shorten the time needed for review.
However, Noah guessed that even if he didn't need his help, these little wizards could do it on their own, it would just take longer and contain more content.
After all, thanks to his daily study attitude, the first-year Slytherins are more energetic in their studies and are often led by him to do homework in the library.
So the reason for arresting him was really because he looked too calm and it was not pleasing to the eye.
Noah didn't care either. Proper rest would help the body and mind feel happy.
The exam is coming soon.
There are two types of exams for wizards, test papers and practical exercises. The former is very simple. In the examination room, everyone gets a new quill that has been casted with an anti-cheating spell and answers questions on their own test papers.
Because the papers were under a privacy spell, they didn't even have to sit apart. Of course, it is impossible to communicate even if we sit close to each other.
The practical exam was even simpler. The professors summoned the students one by one and asked them to cast the corresponding spell.
For example, the exam project in the Charms class is to make a book dance across a section of the desk, while Professor McGonagall asked the little wizards to turn a little mouse into a teapot, and the Herbology class required them to brew a plant. Soak the pods and transplant them into another pot.
Due to the lack of a professor, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was temporarily taken over by the principal. Their exam project was how to catch a goblin.
Well, probably the practical examination of Potions is the most difficult for the little wizards, because Professor Snape will stand behind them and stare at them, making all the little wizards subconsciously feel a chill in their backs, and they can even feel it Professor Snape's breathing.
At least after finishing the Potions exam, Noah had already heard the first-year students from other colleges couldn't help but complain in whispers, saying that Professor Snape was more penetrating than those cold ghosts...
To a certain extent, yes.
Because the practical exams are taken one by one, they take a long time.
This is a good thing for many young wizards, as it means that students at the lower end have more time to review more content quickly.
Not surprisingly, the last course was History of Magic. Not only did they have to take a written test, they also had to be asked questions and answered orally by the professor one by one.
Although the class was quite boring, Noah, who had memorized the entire book, passed the exam easily.
The happy thing is that after the exam, Noah and the others had a full week to relax and wait for their exam results.
Noah, who rarely put all the books back in the library, also planned to relax for a week.
The classmates who were pleased with this decisively pulled him out of the castle and went to the lake to relax.
Many students like to come here to relax after taking exams. At least when they came, many students from Gryffindor and Hufflepuff were already lying on the grass.
As the weather warms up, many fish in the lake like to surface and swim around in the shallow water, so some students stand by the lake and feed the fish with great interest.
Seeing the first-year Slytherins coming, some students subconsciously stopped.
The arrogant Slytherins were too lazy to pay attention to their "attention gifts", and found another uninhabited area to sit down and start chatting on their own.
But Noah couldn't relax for long. About half an hour later, a senior Slytherin hurried over: "Lannister, the dean is looking for you."
Noah: "...?"
After the exam, what did Professor Snape want to do with him?
It's impossible to ask him to correct homework...
Of course, it was impossible for Snape to ask him to correct his homework. In fact, it was not only Noah who was called over, but also several Slytherins, all members of the Potions Club.
Well, they were captured directly by Professor Snape in order to process a batch of potion materials.
Because of exams, Professor Snape's potion materials were rapidly consumed, and he urgently needed a batch of fresh materials to replenish his potion library.
Although he could make up for it later, the professor didn't mind squeezing his students. After all, it was helping them familiarize themselves with the material in advance.
Noah: “…”
Okay, that’s not too surprising.
After all, as "Professor Snape's most disliked genius student", Noah was often locked in Snape's office to deal with these things. He can guarantee that the other members of the Potions Club were caught as strong men as many times as he was. At most, it would be the same even if other students joined the club earlier than me.
