Chapter 4146 4148 [OWLS Exam]

Xiang Nan then received career advice from Professor Flitwick.

"Sev, this conversation is to discuss in detail any ideas you may have about your future career, so as to help you decide what subjects to continue studying in your sixth and seventh years." Professor Flitwick asked with a smile, "Have you ever thought about what you want to do after leaving Hogwarts?"

To be honest, he was not worried about Xiang Nan's job after graduation because the potions, anti-curse equipment and magic props he was working on were already very profitable.

Although he didn't know how much money Xiang Nan could earn, the professors had discussed it in the lounge and concluded that his monthly income was equivalent to their annual salary, which was quite profitable.

Slughorn was even a little jealous of Xiang Nan's income, while Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick were very happy for him.

The fact that he was able to develop so many potions, anti-curse equipment and magic props fully demonstrated his attainments in Charms, Potions, Transfiguration and Defense Against the Dark Arts.

"Professor, after I defeat the mysterious man, I want to travel around the world and see the world." Xiang Nan replied.

Flitwick was stunned and said in surprise, "You want to bring down the You-Know-Who? That's a very dangerous thing."

"I know, but no matter how dangerous it is, someone should do it." Xiang Nan nodded.

"Sev, I admire you very much," Flitwick said with emotion.

It is really amazing that Xiang Nan, a student, has such a broad mind.

……

After career counseling, fifth grade students will face the OWLS test, while seventh grade students will take the NEWT test.

Therefore, Lupin, Lily, Joey, Benjamin, Pettigrew, Gregory and others were under pressure to review, so they had to suspend their participation in Xiang Nan's business.

But Xiang Nan didn't care. He continued to engage in research and development and production together with little Batty and a group of outstanding sixth, fourth and third grade students.

Anyway, he was already very proficient in all subjects and was not afraid of exams at all.

However, the intelligence-enhancing potions, cooling potions, etc. that he brewed were selling like hot cakes.

Those fifth and seventh grade students spared no expense in order to pass the exams.

Gregory Foley even wanted to spend twenty Galleons to buy a bottle of so-called Dragon's Claw Powder. He said that this medicine was very effective. After taking it, his memory would be amazing within a few hours, which was guaranteed to help him pass the OWLS exam.

But Xiang Nan stopped him in time before he paid because Xiang Nan found out that it was not dragon claw powder at all, but the dried feces of Foxy.

In addition, there are many people who are thinking about cheating in the exam. They buy automatic spelling quills, ink that can be used for cheating, and so on.

But in fact, all of these are useless. Because the OWLS exam invigilation is extremely strict, all cheating methods are useless, and you can only rely on your own strength.

……

The OWLS exam officially begins in mid-June. The exam period lasts for half a month, with a written test in the morning and a practical test in the afternoon.

The exam officially started at 9:30, and the first test was spells.

The previous cafeteria was turned into an examination room. All the long tables were removed and replaced with small tables for one person. Each table was one meter apart to avoid whispering, peeking at test papers, etc.

The people from the Examination Department of the Ministry of Magic were in charge of supervising the exams. They were a group of old ladies in their sixties and seventies. They walked in the examination room with their hands behind their backs. Their eyes were as sharp as hunting owls, and no movement could escape their eyes.

Xiang Nan was naturally not afraid. He answered the questions quickly and well. To him, these test papers were really too easy.

At 11:30, after finishing the first subject, many students were in a state of dismay. This was because the spells exam tested a lot of theoretical knowledge, and except for a few students, most students knew very little about magic theory, so many students thought they had failed the exam.

After lunch, there will be a practical test in the afternoon.

The students were waiting outside the examination room for their numbers to be called, and only three people could enter at a time.

Xiang Nan went in to take the exam with James Potter and Gonzalo Nott.

"Professor Tofty is free, Sev." Professor Flitwick, who was standing at the door, said sharply. He pointed to Xiang Nan, who looked the oldest and had the least hair.

The man was sitting behind a small table in the far corner.

Xiang Nan walked over and said, "Hello, professor."

"You are Severus Snape?" The examiner looked at Xiang Nan and said, "Yes, now, I ask you to let this egg cup perform a few side flips for me."

Xiang Nan nodded and waved his hand, and the egg cup on Professor Tofty's desk did a few side flips.

"Silent spellcasting, wandless spellcasting?" Professor Tofty was shocked. "Not bad, not bad. Now, turn this mouse yellow."

Xiang Nan nodded and waved his hand again. The fur on the mouse's body suddenly turned into a dazzling golden color, making the originally slightly wretched little mouse appear somewhat sacred.

Professor Tofty was very satisfied. "Very good, very outstanding. It is really rare to find a wizard as young as you who has achieved such success."

"Thank you, professor." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

……

In the Transfiguration exam the next day, Xiang Nan not only completed the answer sheet successfully, but also performed a perfect Transfiguration spell during the afternoon practical test.

Not only did he successfully turn a raccoon cat into a cup, he also turned the cup's handle into candy, and finally cast a vanishing spell to make everything disappear.

His excellent Transfiguration skills greatly surprised the examiner, Professor Gesilda Marchbank.

The third day was an exam on herbal medicine. There was a written test in the morning, and students were required to answer the characteristics and applications of hundreds of herbs. This was a very difficult task.

In the afternoon, students had to take care of the herbs in the practical class. Xiang Nan did a great job in repotting the mandrake grass, picking ten thorns from the thorn grass in one minute, and cultivating the explosive mushroom in three minutes.

His performance shocked the examiners.

The fourth day was the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. In the morning, the students took a written test, which required them to write about the characteristics and prevention methods of dark creatures such as werewolves, hags, boggarts, vampires, and hinky punks.

In the afternoon practical class, students had to fight against the dark creatures themselves. Xiang Nan not only successfully defeated the vixen, elves, boggarts and other dark creatures, but also released his own patronus charm in front of the professor, which scared the invigilator Professor Tofty.

"Patronus Charm? You actually know it?" He looked at Xiang Nan and asked in surprise.

Professor McGonagall, who was in charge of calling the numbers, was also surprised.

The Patronus Charm is a very complex and advanced spell. Even for adult wizards, it is difficult to cast this magic.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan not only performed it successfully, but his patronus was also formed, which was even more difficult.

Xiang Nan nodded, but didn't dare tell them that he had actually learned it three years ago.
