Kris now realized why Mo Fan needed someone to defend his back. The Chaos Vortex could only face in one direction!
The Intermediate Spells flew into the vortex like they had entered a different world. The spells were devoured regardless of how much or what type of energy they possessed.
The Chaos Vortex did have a capacity, but the Intermediate Spells of these Blue Star Knights were obviously nowhere close to its limit. Their energy was completely absorbed by the vortex.
“Reverse!”
Mo Fan spun the vortex in the opposite direction, firing the strengthened Intermediate Spells back at the Blue Star Knights. He suddenly turned into a magic Gatling gun, firing a rain of bullets back at the Blue Star Knights.
The Blue Star Knights immediately lost their ground, and many of them fled for their lives. The Chaos Vortex was not an offensive spell by itself, but it was able to keep absorbing nearby energy. As a result, the spells reflected by it that had been provided by the Blue Star Knights were unusually strong.
Combat Officer Lido clenched his teeth when he saw his Blue Star Knights could not inflict even the slightest injury on Mo Fan after a few rounds. He had an urge to join in on the duel himself!
The spells reflected by the Chaos Vortex left a great mess across the battleground. Not every Blue Star Knight had a great defense, and the spells from the Chaos Vortex were equivalent to a group of forty knights bombarding them with Intermediate Spells. There was no doubt someone was going to be injured after the rain of spells poured down at them.
The glow in Mo Fan’s eyes was replaced by a silver gleam. “Air Catapults!” he shouted as he focused.

The Chaos Vortex was only an Intermediate Spell. It was best used when the Mage was targeted by a variety of Elemental Spells.

Mo Fan immediately cast a Space Spell once the Chaos Vortex was gone.
His Will split into countless bolts of solid air. They shot rapidly at the Blue Star Knights who were still stumbling around in the smoke and dust swept up by the previous rain of spells. Blood jetted into the air, followed by cries of agony from the Blue Star Knights before they could even react.
Mo Fan’s Air Catapult was a spell that the Blue Star Knights had never seen before. They did not expect the Will of the Space Element to be turned into deadly weapons, not to mention the homing feature of the air bolts. The bolts were even able to rotate one hundred and eighty degrees after passing them by and hit them from the back!
Mo Fan was actively controlling the Air Catapults, and immediately fired the air bolts whenever he saw a Star Constellation appearing close to a Blue Star Knight. He was preventing his enemies from using their Advanced Spells, even though the air bolts would not necessarily land on his targets!
“An arrogant man like you must be despised by everyone!” a loud voice shouted from behind Mo Fan.
Mo Fan turned around and saw Kris was struggling to stop several Blue Star Knights by himself. A Blue Star Knight with the Wind Element and Fire Element was only inches away from Mo Fan.
He was sprinting in the wind, his arms spread far apart. He threw a fist engulfed in flames at Mo Fan as he drew close enough.
Mo Fan saw the flames surging at him like an eagle. The man was obviously a Fire Mage with an Innate Talent. His flames were soaring like eagles, and his Fire Spells were obviously stronger than ordinary Advanced Mages too!

Eagle Strike Fiery Fist?
Mo Fan turned around and put on a mocking grin!
“You’re displaying your small skill before an expert!” Mo Fan told the fellow.
Did it matter if the man had unleashed his flames first? As Mo Fan’s fist burned against the air, a fierce flame sprang forward and put out the Eagle Strike Fiery Fist the Blue Star Knight was so proud of!
Mo Fan’s Fiery Fist was followed by terrifying explosions. The Blue Star Knight trying to pummel Mo Fan with a Fiery Fist was sent flying. His Eagle Flames were only spectacular visually; they were no match for Mo Fan, who had improved his Fiery Fist to the sixth-tier!
He had three Soul-grade Flames and the sixth-tier Fiery Fist. No matter how talented the Blue Star Knight was, he did not stand a chance before the overwhelming differences in their strengths.
That Blue Star Knight was knocked a huge distance away. He could not even feel the pain while he was flying through the air. His mind was full of disbelief.
He had thrown his fist first… so how did he lose so miserably!?
The Blue Star Knight fell to the ground at the edge of the battleground. He was no longer able to rise back to his feet.
“You there, you shouldn’t assume you are safe enough to cast Advanced Spells just because my air bolts aren’t targeting you. Didn’t anyone teach you to check your flanks before constructing your Star Constellation?” Mo Fan glanced at four Blue Star Knights who were around two hundred meters away on his right.
The four Blue Star Knights were wielding destructive spells. They had dodged the rain of spells from Mo Fan’s Chaos Vortex and found a perfect chance to channel their Advanced Spells.
However, Mo Fan was not only controlling the battleground with the Air Catapults. The four Blue Star Knights were totally unaware of the shadows looming over them. The shadows had climbed onto their backs like evil spirits, and now stabbed their targets in the head.
Mo Fan obviously did not use the Rebelling Shadow Throat Slice, since he had no intention of killing the Blue Star Knights. He was only going to knock them out. The psychological effect of the Shadow Element was more effective than crippling an enemy!
The four Blue Star Knights did not expect Mo Fan’s eerie shadows to ambush them. They immediately fainted after they were stabbed in the temple.
“Idiots!” Combat Officer Lido cursed angrily.
They even forgot to set up a basic defense. They were taken out so easily by Mo Fan’s Shadow Element!
Lido memorized those four Blue Star Knights. He swore he was not going to let them graduate from his class so easily after acting so overly stupid!
“That guy is so good! He managed to take out five Blue Star Knights even when he’s at a disadvantage in numbers. Not many people could do that,” the members of the Parthenon Temple who were watching the duel discussed among themselves.
“I wouldn’t be able to last for more than ten seconds.”
“He is only using some basic spells too! I wonder how many Blue Star Knights would be defeated if he found a chance to use his powerful spells?…”

Azarinth Healer
A new world with nearly unlimited possibilities. A status, classes, magic and monsters. Sounds good? Well, for Ilea it didn't come quite as expected as for some other protagonists, nor was there a king or god to welcome her. The grand quest? Well, she might figure that out someday but for now, a new world with new food is prize enough. Her fists at the ready, she's prepared to punch and get punched, however long it takes and however many limbs she might have to regrow. A story I've started writing now quite a while ago. Transported to another world, somewhat standard fantasy setting with my beginner attempts to make it dark but funny. There are Litrpg elements here but I do hope it's not too heavy and annoying. The fights should be interesting and aren't just numbers vs numbers. Contrary to the title the protagonist will be quite an offensive fighter. Ilea Spears is your average sarcastic kick-boxing fast food worker and soon to be student. She will be transported to another world rather conventionally and will be confronted with survival in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. My experience is incredibly lacking. If you find yourself hating it early on, do convey your anger in a detailed comment or review :) I want to get better but without any feedback it's simply quite difficult. Quick heads up: Around chapter 120 there are a bunch of longer PoV changes that I discontinued again shortly after. The Arc around chapters 150-200 is darker than the rest and the themes shift quite a bit. Just know that it goes back to what you've come to know after that section. Thank you for reading. Quick update June 2019: Many complaints regarding the formatting, specifically spacing in conversations and of course the usage of the present tense in the first 36 chapters have been addressed. I'm of course learning by the day but compared to how it was before it should be an improvement at least. Chapters usually around 3k words Cover art by Kevin Catalan

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
