"Unified Petrochemicals!"
Combat begins, and Max immediately casted his signature full-body binding spell.
He wields this curse better than most third-year wizards.
However, his spell was not yet complete, and he felt his entire body stiffen, unable to move.
At this moment, George had already used his full-body binding curse before him.
"Curse stand still!"
Walking up to Max, George untied the full-body binding curse on him, speaking with encouragement:
"You are already very powerful. I was just lucky to be a bit faster than you."
Although I won, I can't let my character crumble. It's not the time to waste in gathering people's support.
Indeed, upon hearing George's words, Max's face, which was previously full of disappointment, immediately brightened up.
"I will practice hard and win against you next time."
He also felt that he might only be a little bit worse than George.
Of course, this is full of innocent thoughts that were quickly broken by reality. He will find that he may not be able to defeat George until graduation because George didn't even use his full strength.
"Stop, everyone stop! We should fight with wands, not fists!"
Soon, the two were distracted by the urgent shouts of Rohart. Turning their heads to look around, they discovered that the duel platform was now in chaos.
Most lower-year wizards don't actually have much combat magic they can use, and even those who do may forget how to use it in a pinch.
Like Max, he is indeed a standout among them.
This is why many young wizards, when they find that magic doesn't win battles, resort to fistfights and kicking, especially those who were already at odds with each other.
Even Hermione, this scholar wizard who has mastered dozens of spells, is now engaging in close combat with her opponent, Millicent close to the second-year Slytherin, Montag.
Both of their wands fell to the ground. Hermione was pinned by the opponent's arm around her neck, but she didn't give in and pounded her fists against the other's thigh, very fierce.
Girls of this age are no less fierce in a fight than boys.
Some senior wizards don't even have to resort to physical combat, but they're not that compliant either. They don't simply use disarming spells as required. Instead, they take the opportunity to experiment with some random spells.
The Wesleys were causing the most trouble.
This led to some young wizards getting hurt in all sorts of ways.
"Stand up, Mr. Macmillan... be careful, Miss Frost... squeeze hard... the blood will stop soon, Buttercup..."
Lohart jumped up and down in the crowd, his expression a bit panicked, not at all what he wanted.
Meanwhile, Snape seemed indifferent, perhaps thinking that a little injury to the young wizards wasn't much. Snape's attention was fully on Harry and Malfoy.
He only wanted to see Harry embarrassed by Malfoy, but Harry clearly had a talent for magical combat. He fought evenly with Malfoy, one dancing due to the dance curse and the other laughing aloud after being hit by the tickling curse.
"Stupefy!"
"Stupefy!"
George shook his head and waved two stupefy spells to knock down Hermione and Millicent.
After that, he moved through the crowd, casting spells with a flick of his wand, and soon all the first and second-year wizards who were in a fight were knocked unconscious.
After that, he turned his wand towards the senior wizards, and some third or fourth-year wizards were no match for him until he faced off against two of the most powerful seventh-year wizards.
"Stupefy!"
"Armor Shield!"
"Disarming Charm!"
Senior students are not to be compared to junior ones, and as soon as he joined the fight, George experienced the strength of seventh-year wizards who take magic seriously.
His stupefy spell was indeed fast, but the iron armor spell was not slow either. It not only blocked his stupefy spell but also disarmed him with a disarming charm.
Fortunately, although he didn't know the iron armor spell, his physical reaction was far superior to the norm. He quickly dodged the attack of the disarming charm.
"Oh, it's George. Do you want to challenge us? Be warned!"
Seeing the Slytherin star from grade one join the fight, the two seventh-year wizards were surprised, but they didn't intend to stop.
So the duel turned into a three-person melee.
The two seventh-year wizards threw all sorts of difficult spells, and the magical beams shot out like laser beams, quickly drawing the attention of everyone in the audience.
In fact, while George was helping knock out the younger wizards just now, he had already attracted the attention of many younger wizards who had not yet joined the battle.
As the famous Slytherin star, who had just been invited by the national Quidditch team of England and was the youngest player in the world Quidditch team, everything changed when George stepped up to engage in a magical duel.
Many other young wizards were already watching him, with the same level of interest as Harry Potter, the savior.
Now, George boldly joined the battle with the seventh-year wizards, and managed to stay in the game without being knocked out, which made everyone unable to take their eyes off him.
"Who would have thought he's not only good at studying and playing Quidditch, but also has such talent in magical combat!"
"I suspect he must have some feline blood in him. Look, he doesn't even use a shield and manages to dodge all the spell attacks with ease."
"So handsome and a bit cute too! Merlin, I'm actually getting hit on by a first-year boy!"
"I'm just three years older than him; age is not an issue. I want to date."
As the commotion below grew louder, Snape and Lohart also noticed what was happening over here.
Seeing George holding his own in a melee with two seventh-year wizards, Snape's face immediately broke into a satisfied smile.
It's George, no thanks to the fact that George has a good relationship with Harry, he would never have allowed the ineffective Malfoy to duel with Harry.
"It seems like there's still time to teach him a few combat spells."
He is satisfied with George's magical combat talent, but George's repeated use of the same few spells against senior wizards makes him feel too much of a disadvantage. It made him think about teaching George his own unique spells in advance.
Moreover, considering that the Chamber of Secrets has been opened, if George can master more spells, he will be able to protect himself in case of danger.
Previously, I just thought that George was only in his first year and didn't need to learn about those powerful spells so early on, as the difficulty was too high.
Now it seems that it might not be a bad idea.
A genius shouldn't be taught according to common sense.
"Everyone is watching George well. He's been asking me for tips on magical combat skills for a while now, and I guess I've taught him a bit."
At this moment, Lohart shamelessly stepped forward again.
Snape almost lost his temper and nearly kicked this guy off the stage.
He knew that George often sought out Lohart for advice on magical combat skills, but it wasn't really about any combat techniques. It was just about spells like forgetting spells, false memories, and memory filling spells.
At this moment, he was even more determined to find time to teach George some of the spells he had invented. That way, when George used them next time, Lohart couldn't say he taught them to him anymore. He would slap Lohart's face right there and then, and watch how Lohart tried to justify himself.
