Chapter 134: Do You Like to Open Champagne at Halftime?

The next night.

Dueling Club.

The number of young wizards who came this time far exceeded the last time.

Not only because there were no classes in the evening, most people came to watch the fun.

Snape's notoriety was not only spread in Gryffindor, but many people in every college disliked him.

Lockhart's reputation in Hogwarts campus plummeted after the Cornwall elf incident and the last dueling club.

These two people can be called the two most unpopular professors in Hogwarts school.

No matter who loses, the young wizards in Hogwarts are happy to see it.

Following Lockhart's exaggerated and boastful opening remarks, Snape appeared at the edge of the stage with a cold face.

He cursed Dumbledore's original decision in his heart!

If Dumbledore hadn't worried that Lockhart would cause trouble in the dueling club, he would have made him the club's instructor.

How could he have been involved with Lockhart's dog-skin plaster!

Not enough to fight once, and dare to provoke me?

I really don't know what I was studying before studying potions?

"Argus, why does that fake Lockhart dare to challenge the dean?"

"Wasn't he beaten badly enough last time?"

"Where does he get the courage?"

Although Draco asked, his tone was extremely disdainful.

It was obvious that he looked down on Lockhart.

Argus came here this time mainly to see the actual performance of these two products.

No matter how the test is tested, it is still far from the actual combat.

If you want to really understand the situation of the product, you still have to see how it is in actual combat.

He stared at Lockhart and replied casually: "Who knows, he dares to challenge, so he must have some confidence."

"Otherwise, how dare he."

"That's true," Draco nodded.

The little wizards around also pointed at Lockhart.

"I remember that Professor Lockhart couldn't even handle the Cornish elves, right? How dare he say he can beat Professor Snape with one move!"

"Tsk, I saw it with my own eyes. He was defeated by Professor Snape with one move last time."

"Yes, yes, yes, I was there at the time. Professor Snape is still quite capable. He is much stronger than some people who can only talk!"

Everyone was talking at the same time, and veins popped out of Lockhart's forehead.

He wanted fame, but he didn't want this kind of "black and red"!

Tightening his cloak, he was ready to vent all his anger on Snape.

Draw out the wand and aim at Snape!

"Professor Snape, are you ready?"

"The duel will start soon!"

Snape didn't care, took out his wand and took a duel stance.

"Ready for the duel!" Lockhart's voice was a little nervous.

He didn't know how useful the secret weapon given by Argus was.

He hadn't experienced a battle for many years and had no confidence in his own strength.

The only thing he can rely on is the wand in his hand!

Snape looked at Lockhart's anxious expression, and the contempt on his lips became even stronger.

It seemed that he had seen the scene where the other party was knocked down by his random spell again.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

As soon as the voice fell, a thin red light flashed out from Lockhart's wand like lightning!

It rushed towards Snape at high speed!

Snape was stunned by Lockhart's spell-casting speed.

He didn't even have time to chant the spell!

He could only barely cast a universal protection!

But this unprepared defensive magic was too fragile.

The transparent barrier was defeated.

Snape took a few steps back and almost fell off the stage with a stumble!

The young wizards in the audience couldn't believe their eyes.

Lockhart beat Professor Snape back?

Is this still the same fake one?

"He just used...no spell casting?"

"No spell to release the disarming spell?"

Draco rubbed his eyes hard, as if everything just now was an illusion.

"It seems so. Generally, only wizards who are powerful and very familiar with this spell can use such advanced skills as no spell casting."

Agus was very satisfied with the performance of the sample.

Although there was a reason for the sneak attack and Snape's carelessness, the fact that he could sneak attack and repel a professor proved that his vision was correct.

This research does have great potential!

Feeling the shocked and admiring eyes of the little wizards around him, Lockhart was surprised and happy, and his hand holding the wand tightened a little.

He didn't know how many years he hadn't felt the joy of victory in battle.

Unexpectedly, he could experience it in Snape's hands this time.

With a little publicity in the future, his reputation will definitely rise to a higher level!

Thinking that he could get this honor all from Agus's sample, he looked at Agus more eagerly.

"Mr. Grindelwald is right. I did use spellless spellcasting!"

"This is a skill that only extremely powerful wizards can use!"

"For Mr. Grindelwald's far-out-of-ordinary knowledge and vision, Slytherin gets five points, no, ten points!"

As soon as he said this, Argus instantly felt a sinister gaze fixed on him.

Turning his head, he saw Snape looking at him with a dark face!

It's over!

Lockhart's performance was too obvious, and Snape saw it!

Snape was not a fool, he knew Lockhart's strengths and weaknesses very well.

Let alone spellless spellcasting, he was lucky to be able to cast the disarming spell safely!

He made so much progress all of a sudden, and he got points for the person who had stolen his limelight before...

Who would believe that nothing happened in the middle!

He walked onto the stage step by step and raised his wand again.

"Professor Lockhart, the duel is not over yet!"

"Isn't it too early for you to explain now?"

Having just repelled Snape, Lockhart was now extremely arrogant.

Seeing Snape's posture, he proudly showed off to a group of young wizards.

"It seems that your Potions professor is not convinced by the failure just now!"

"Don't worry, I won't hurt him."

As soon as Argus heard it, he knew that something bad was going to happen!

Snape was such a face-conscious person, how could he suffer for no reason!

Lockhart slowly raised his wand and said in a long tone: "Duel preparation!"

"Three, two, one!"

He wanted to repeat the same trick and catch Snape off guard again.

As a result, as soon as the disarming spell was cast, a thick red light instantly attacked!

Compared with the disarming spell released by Snape, his little red light was just a stunted bean sprout!

The red beam collapsed upon contact!

Lockhart hurriedly released the Shield Charm attached to his cloak, but how could a mere Level 2 Shield Charm stop the furious Snape!

The protective shield attached to the Shield Charm was like paper.

In Lockhart's horrified eyes, he was hit hard.

He was blasted directly to the roof!

Then he fell to the ground.

Dust was splashed all over the ground!

Snape spoke lazily.

"Professor Lockhart, now, you can continue your explanation."
