The sky was full of stars, and the sky was full of stars.

Andy and his friends followed Professor McGonagall through the entrance hall and came to a spacious auditorium.

Denis Creevey, who was rescued by Andy, found his brother, Colin Creevey, at the long table of Gryffindor.

He excitedly showed off to Colin that he fell into the lake, and pointed at Andy's back, indicating that Andy had saved him.

The ceiling mapped by magic showed the shape of the starry sky, as if there was no dome.

There were also countless candlesticks floating in the air, illuminating the four long tables placed in the auditorium.

Students from each college occupied a long table, which was already full of people at this time, but there was a place at the end of the long table, which was prepared for this year's freshmen.

Directly opposite the hall, the professors' seats were located.

The professors were arranged in a row horizontally, sitting opposite the long table, facing the incoming freshmen.

Based on his impression, Andy recognized several professors with obvious features.

The one with black hair, greasy as if he had never washed it, and expressionless face was Snape, the professor of Potions.

Next to him was Professor Flitwick, the short man who was rumored to have goblin blood, the dean of Ravenclaw College.

Of course, there was Professor McGonagall, the professor of Transfiguration, who led them in, and Dumbledore, who was sitting in the middle in a white robe.

In the middle of the professor's seat and the long table, there was a lonely chair.

Professor McGonagall walked over and placed a tattered wizard hat on the chair.

A crack suddenly appeared on the hat, which looked like its mouth, and began to sing loudly.

This was the Hogwarts sorting ceremony. Every freshman needed to wear this sorting hat to decide which college he would go to.

Andy looked around, and indeed saw a figure waving and smiling at him at the long table of Ravenclaw.

Andy also smiled and waved to Qiu Zhang, and followed Professor McGonagall forward.

At the same time, he could hear the voices of people around him discussing.

"Is the boy standing in front also a freshman? Why is he so tall?"

"I heard that there will be a fifth-year transfer student this year, maybe he is the one."

"Haha, look at him, he doesn't know anything, but he pretends to be calm, Ced, I dare say if you duel, you can beat him with one hand."

Cedric, who was originally quiet, got angry and slapped the table: "Why do you like to watch others duel so much?!"

The joking students were startled by Cedric's reaction and looked at Cedric in surprise.

Cedric said with a stiff upper lip: "Well, I mean, we should take care of our classmates and don't think about fighting all the time."

"Quiet!" Professor McGonagall said to them, ending everyone's discussion.

Professor McGonagall took Andy and the others to the chairs and motioned them to line up in two rows and wait here: "I will read the list in my hand later. When you hear your name, come forward."

"Andy Hall."

As soon as Andy's name appeared, the whole hall was silent.

Everyone was looking at Andy curiously.

"Andy Hall? Is he the one mentioned in the newspaper? The fifth-year transfer student?"

"Impossible, he doesn't look like he can defeat four dark wizards."

"...I don't know which house he will be sorted into."

Andy was unmoved and walked forward. Without Professor McGonagall's instructions, he skillfully sat on the chair and put the Sorting Hat on his head.

"Aha! Another freshman." As soon as Andy put on the Sorting Hat, its voice rang in Andy's mind, "Let me see..."

Andy said directly in his mind: "Let's save some procedures, Ravenclaw, hurry up."

Before coming, Andy had already thought about which house he would go to.

That is Ravenclaw where Qiu Zhang is.

A careful analysis shows that Hogwarts has four colleges, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.

Andy knows someone in every college.

First of all, Slytherin must not go.

Andy just beat Lucius Malfoy at the Quidditch World Cup final.

His son Draco Malfoy is now in Slytherin.

Of course, Andy is not afraid of Malfoy, but as soon as he entered school, he didn't want to have any conflicts with Malfoy.

His primary goal is to spend these years quietly, at least graduate from Hogwarts.

All his expenses for coming to Hogwarts were funded by the Zhang couple, and Andy didn't want to let the people who really care about him

Those people are disappointed.

The same problem applies to Hufflepuff, as Cedric is in Hufflepuff.

If Andy doesn't want to make both of them embarrassed, he should have less interactions with Cedric.

As for Gryffindor, the original protagonist Harry Potter is in Gryffindor, and he will be a warrior in the Triwizard Tournament this year.

Under this premise, Andy still stays close to Harry Potter, simply to find a rhythm for himself.

So in the end, his only option is Ravenclaw.

Andy is more familiar with Qiu Zhang by his side.

Just when Andy thought that the Sorting Hat on his head was about to send him to Ravenclaw, he felt the Sorting Hat stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "What? Why are you so direct?"

"Do you think I can directly decide which college each student goes to?"

"?" Andy asked back: "Isn't it? According to the process, you will ask me a few questions, and then decide which college I should be sorted into based on my answers."

"Now I tell you my intention directly, isn't it better?"

The Sorting Hat was stunned by Andy, and after a long time it said: "This seems to be right... No!"

"Listen, I'm not the kind of magic prop without dignity, I have my own standards!"

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think!"

Andy was speechless: "Okay, then what is your standard?"

"Let me guess, students with courage go to Gryffindor , ambitious people go to Slytherin. "

"Seeking knowledge, Ravenclaw, honesty and trustworthiness, Hufflepuff?"

"But everyone has these traits, so it depends on the wizard's own opinion in the end, right?"

"?" The Sorting Hat said angrily again: "How do you know so much?"

"I have served in Hogwarts for a thousand years, and this is the first time I have met such an arrogant student like you! Even Gryffindor himself was respectful to me back then!"

Andy spread his hands: "Just tell me if I am right?"

The Sorting Hat held back for a long time before admitting: "...Yes."

Andy continued: "Then don't you know that this information has been revealed for thousands of years?"

"Your way of sorting, if I may be frank, there is no surprise anymore."

"If you don't believe me, you can look at the students behind me. Except for those who are new to magic, who doesn't know the sorting criteria?"
