“So, my dad was a Seeker too?” Harry looked at the screen in front of him, excitement bubbling within him.
For an orphan like him, any information about his parents was enough to make him happy for hours.
Next to him, Neville looked at Zhang Dong with astonishment and asked,
“Professor McGonagall was a Seeker too?”
“Of course, and one of the best,” Zhang Dong nodded, then explained: “Over the last century, Gryffindor has had three golden eras of Quidditch. The most recent was during Charlie Weasley's time, while the most distant era was led by Professor McGonagall's Minerva era. Of course, the most glorious period was during Harry's father's, James Potter's, time. They practically traumatized the other three houses for seven years straight. However, this doesn't diminish Professor McGonagall's brilliance in the least.”
Listening to Zhang Dong's words, Neville admired Professor McGonagall and her peers even more. Today's events, however, made him realize he lacked talent in flying. So, while he admired them, he had no intention of competing himself.
Meanwhile, the third video started playing.
[On the field, Wood was explaining basic Quidditch rules to Potter.
“A Quidditch match requires three Chasers, two Beaters, a Keeper, and you… a Seeker.”
Harry listened intently, then watched as Wood took out a bat and handed it to Harry. He then untied a Bludger, and instantly, it shot up into the sky!
“Be careful, it's coming back.”
Wood's words hadn't finished before the Bludger swooped down!
But, just as it approached Harry, he instantly swung the bat in his hand.
Bang!
Instantly, the Bludger was sent flying by Harry, landing perfectly between the two swords held by the stone statue on the roof in the distance.
“Wow.”
Wood couldn't help but marvel, the gap between people was truly massive. However, Gryffindor wasn't lacking Beaters, whether Harry could truly join the Gryffindor team depended on his final performance.
“Potter, your hitting is decent, but, you're a Seeker.”
Wood silently took a golden ball from the box and handed it to Harry.
“The only thing you need to worry about is this, the Golden Snitch.”
“It's adorable, I like it.” Harry felt a sense of familiarity with the Golden Snitch in front of him, but Wood smiled.
“That's now. Wait and see, it flies incredibly fast, you won't even be able to see its movements.”
After saying that, Wood released his hand, and the golden ball truly disappeared from sight.
However, no matter how the Golden Snitch moved, Harry could always see its trajectory.
Looking at the Snitch, shimmering with golden light under the sun, Harry smiled happily.]
“Harry! We want you on the Gryffindor team!” Wood finally couldn't contain himself and shouted.
He couldn't feel Harry's terrifying potential back then, but now, with a god's perspective, he could fully see Harry's exceptional talent, and it was exactly what their Quidditch team needed.
“Wood, don't get excited.” McGonagall raised her hand, smiling, signaling Wood to calm down. “At least we should get Harry a broom first. Whether it's a Firebolt or a Nimbus 2000, for now, you should just finish your food quietly.”
“Alright, Professor McGonagall.” Wood scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, and sat back down.
Meanwhile, Fred and George walked up to Harry and said,
Fred: “Welcome to the team, Harry.”
George: “We're the Gryffindor Beaters too, your future teammates.”
Fred: “We haven't won since Charlie left.”
George: “But this year, we'll make history again!”
Looking at the excited little Gryffindors, Malfoy lowered his head and continued eating.
“Why can't Professor Snape let me join the Slytherin team too, wait and see, Harry, once I join Slytherin, I'll show you my true strength!”
Malfoy decided that when he joined Slytherin, he would give everyone a Nimbus 2000. He refused to believe that he couldn't surpass Harry with his wealth!
Actually, in terms of wealth, he truly couldn't compete. The Potter family was one of the wealthiest in the wizarding world. The shampoo Harry's grandfather invented was still popular among witches and wizards of all ages.
Apparently, Snape in the book disliked shampoo for this reason. However, because Snape's character was portrayed as ethereal in the movie, this setting was not adopted.
Thinking about it, Zhang Dong specifically looked at Snape's hair. Well, it seemed that Snape in real life still paid attention to his personal hygiene.
Of course, the Malfoy family was definitely richer than the Potters, after all, they were old-money nobility. But the amount of money Malfoy could personally control was definitely not comparable to the Potters, unless Lucius suddenly passed away, then he might have a chance to surpass the Potters.
“What do you guys think, will Gryffindor win the Cup this year with Harry joining?”
“I feel like it's unlikely. Even if Harry is talented, he's only eleven. Both his physique and experience are not an advantage. I think he'll fall off the broom if someone bumps into him.”
“You said it like he's only small. Being small has its advantages too. I believe in Harry.”
“Hufflepuff will win!”
“Slytherin is the only king!”
“Gryffindor will rise again!!”
Zhang Dong looked at everyone around him, who were already passionately discussing. He nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed like the effect was pretty good. If that's the case, let's play another video.
With this in mind, Zhang Dong clicked on the second video.
[Hagrid, the Keeper of Secrets]
