Chapter 1081 (1/2)

”So... the students who like magic duels, and even say-like bullying, are not bad kids. Maybe they just want to get some sense of identity? Right?” Zhou Ye asked again.

”Yes!” Dumbledore agrees with this point-in his opinion, no child is inherently evil...including Voldemort, he just didn't give Voldemort the normal guidance at the most critical moment, so Let him embark on the road of no return.

”And among the students, it is impossible for everyone to be friendly and harmonious. There will also be conflicts between them... Even some of the contradictions cannot be vented, and they accumulate deeper and deeper, resulting in them finally committing an unforgivable sin... Is that correct?” Zhou Ye asked again.

”Uh-are you talking about the [Mitchell] incident?” Dumbledore asked back.

”Yes...” Zhou Ye smiled.

The so-called ”Mitchell” is actually a pure-blood supporter of Slytherin named Mitchell. He always looks down on wizards of mixed blood and Muggle births, so on weekdays, in speech Often ridiculed and even abused them...

In the end, during an extracurricular internship in the seventh grade, those guys killed Mitchell... the hapless guy just died.

This incident was very serious at the beginning, and even caused a confrontation between the pure-blood family and the Muggle-born wizard and the mixed-blood wizard in the magical world... In the end, the Ministry of Magic used coercive means to suppress both sides...

Otherwise, it was really messed up.

It can be said that the [Mitchell] incident, in Dumbledore's view, is that he is the second largest black history after Voldemort in his position as the principal of Hogwarts.

But - now, this period of black history has been brought out by Zhou Ye to speak up.

”Tell me... what you think!” Dumbledore said with a serious face: ”You know, Ye, I support you... Don't circle me around again!”

”Okay...” Zhou Ye looked at the serious Dumbledore and sighed, ”Professor, you know, in the students' age group-impulsive, aggressive, eager for identification... is their label Sometimes, we adults may feel that it doesn’t matter, but in their opinion, it is a great insult...that’s why all kinds of difficult-to-adjust contradictions arise...”

”...” Listening to Zhou Ye's words, Dumbledore nodded in agreement.

”Furthermore, they are actually reluctant to tell the teacher a lot of things... After all, our identity is the opposite of them to some extent-for them, telling the teacher is equivalent to admitting their failure. Acknowledging that he is a coward...”

”Well, I don't deny the fact that these things you said do exist.” Dumbledore nodded and asked, ”But-what does this have to do with you opening a duel room every Friday?? ”

”Of course it matters!” Zhou Ye smiled slightly: ”The opening of the duel room is for the students to put these private struggles on the bright side... and even we can start group duels and individual duels... …”

”Wait... What if the duel in the duel room doesn't get the result it deserves?” Dumbledore pointed to the point.”The contradictions of those students were not resolved through duels, and even the contradictions deepened, what should I do?”

”I didn't even plan to let them resolve the conflict through the duel room...” Zhou Ye blinked his eyes at Dumbledore, looking like I was innocent.

Dumbledore was almost amused by Zhou Ye's words, ”Then what is your purpose for opening the duel room??”

”The purpose is to let them change the secret fight into an open duel...” Zhou Ye smiled and said: ”When they are fighting secretly, without the teacher present, how can they think it is a little bad, right?? What if something big...we can't make it over? You know-a teenage boy is just the age when he becomes impulsive and desperate...”

”...” Hearing Zhou Ye's words, Dumbledore was speechless for a while.

He knew that Zhou Ye was right--

Children at this age are at an age when they are very impulsive and even want to gain a sense of identity, and the biggest difference between them and ordinary people is that they are seeds of wizards and possess more powerful spells than ordinary people...

Uh-to change a term that is not very appropriate-is equivalent to every student in an academy with weapons in class.

While strength gives people a sense of security, it also gives people a desire to express-which makes these children very difficult to discipline... Although Hogwarts Castle is full of portraits and ghosts-but-the rules are established. It's what makes people look for loopholes-no matter how rigorous the inspection is, there are always things that cannot be taken care of.

But-is Zhou Ye's method really useful??

Just when Dumbledore was considering gains and losses... Zhou Ye's next sentence made Dumbledore decide to support Zhou Ye's approach.

”The opening of the duel room may not be able to completely resolve the contradictions between the students, but-it can turn this kind of secret fight into an open fight, and let some losers know their shame and courage, and turn grief into a learning force. , Maybe - how many actual combat geniuses can be produced?” Zhou Ye's words instantly made Dumbledore's eyes brighten.

”Well, I will support you... Ye, I hope this is not the last time I support you-because if something big happens, maybe I will resign like you!”
