"What is it? Too scared to step inside it?" Sheryl taunted when she saw Mo Fan standing there, less than fifty meters away from the fierce waterfall.
Mo Fan ignored her; he stepped on the gently swaying chain bridge and headed toward the spot where the water was falling the fiercest.
Even though Mo Fan was still fifty meters away, the water spraying into the air was pouring down on him. His clothes were soaked wet.
When he reached twenty meters from the waterfall, he immediately felt an enormous pressure from it. Even breathing became a lot more difficult.
The effects of the loud rumble made him dizzy. The dizziness kept growing as he approached the waterfall.
Mo Fan gradually felt the force crushing down on him from the water. He was struggling to take every step!
---
"He's pretty bold. He went inside without even blinking!" Professor Li exclaimed.
The others were staying around a hundred meters away from the waterfall. They were quite shaken when they were looking up at the magnificent appearance of the waterfall on the bridge, but Mo Fan had gone right on into it. His figure was concealed by the water pouring down fiercely...
The look in Sheryl's eyes finally shifted when she saw Mo Fan stepping into Faerun Waterfall. She thought the guy was only good at playing with words before he actually went into the waterfall. She was surprised to see his straight back had turned blurry in the mist after boldly entering the Faerun Waterfall. Those waters could shatter anyone's courage. He had completely cast his unbearably disgusting first impression aside!
The strongest participant of the Wold College Tournament seemed to really know his stuff!
However, they would soon see him being washed back to their feet miserably...

Faerun Waterfall's force could easily knock a Mage out. Having the courage to face it did not necessarily reflect one's ability to complete the difficult trial!
"Keep an eye on the water," Edith reminded her.
"Is he going to be fine?" Professor Li's granddaughter Li Ximei asked worriedly.
"Faerun Waterfall will always teach you that you aren't strong enough. It's a famous quote along the walls of the corridors in our institute. It might actually be a good thing for him, seeing how full of himself he was!" Sheryl responded.
"Speaking of being full of oneself, aren't you two the same?" Mu Bai blurted out.
"They are just puffed-up with pride," Zhao Manyan added. He was obviously displeased by the Alps Institute's attitude.
If the people that were assigned to receive them were already behaving like this, how about the people with higher status and important positions in the Alps Institute? It seemed like being puffed-up with pride was the symbolic trait of the people of Alps Institute!
"We'll see who's puffed up with pride soon!" Sheryl retorted.
The two young women fixed their eyes on the water. Some of the students of the Alps Institute would have been washed out of the waterfall by now. The fact that the guy had yet to show up meant he was slightly stronger than the normal students of their institute.
"Professor Zheng, hasn't Mo Fan been in there for some time already?" Li Ximei asked.
"It's indeed been quite a while," Professor Zheng nodded, looking pleased.
Mo Fan was the strongest student of their Pearl Institute. If he ended up failing the Alps Institute's trial, it would bring Pearl Institute shame, too. The longer Mo Fan lasted in the waterfall, the friendlier Alps Institute would be!

Professor Zheng had heard a lot of rumors about the Alps Institute. Apparently, many international schools had paid the Alps Institute a visit, but most of the visits ended within a day because the Alps Institute ended up dismissing them early...
Pearl Institute had been here a few times, but they had only sent the teaching staff and professors, they had never brought students with them. This time, they had come as the winners of the World College Tournament. They had to live up to the reputation of their country's national team. They could not allow anyone to look down on them!
Professor Zheng and Professor Li were elderly, so they were not willing to argue with the two impolite young women. Luckily, Mo Fan was not one to be messed with. If he could give the two women a great slap to the face with the trial of Faerun Waterfall, the two professors would be extremely happy!
How spoiled are these students? We came in first in the World College Tournament, yet we still have to act according to the mood of some nuns on a sacred mountain?
"Old Li, I believe Mo Fan has lasted more than ninety percent of their students, right?" Professor Zheng mentioned rather loudly, fondling his beard.
"Of course! From what I know, not many students of Alps Institute can last more than fifteen seconds," Professor Li replied.
Time passed fairly quickly. Edith and Sheryl were feeling a little uneasy!
Did Faerun Waterfall knock the guy to the bottom of the lake already? How has he not washed back to the bridge yet?
"No matter how long he can last, there's no way he can beat the Queen of Dimensions' record!" Edith stated.
"At least he has already broken the records for the two of you, right?" Professor Li replied easily.
"Well..." Sheryl and Edith were lost for words.
Mo Fan had indeed broken their longest times. He had reached the twenty seconds mark as they were talking. Not many people from their school managed to last so long!
"I think he already went into the cave inside the waterfall," Zhao Manyan guessed.
"That's possible!"
"HAHA, it seems that this Faerun Waterfall isn't as impressive as I first thought. Mo Fan has passed the trial so easily!" Li Ximei exclaimed with great admiration.
Sheryl and Edith's expressions sank further. The guy might actually make it to the cave behind the waterfall, considering the amount of time that had passed...
---
---
The noise did not reduce after Mo Fan went into the waterfall. He was surrounded by a silver light that kept the water away. Every step forward was immensely difficult. It felt like his weight had multiplied a hundred or even a thousand times!
As a matter of fact, Mo Fan would already be at his limit if it wasn't for his demon physique. The Faerun Waterfall was a lot tougher than he had imagined. He almost failed to construct the wall of Will a few times...
Mo Fan was using the wall of Will to protect himself. This was intense training for his Will! Mo Fan could feel his mental state improving significantly under the great pressure in just half a minute!

Blaze
The story of a fire elemental's life in a world dominated by mages. He will have to learn how to manage betrayals, treachery, and maybe even love as he goes on adventures to find a meaning to it all. From dark, humble beginnings he will rise... or fall, devastating amounts in his journey across the world. Hello, Author here! I am, unfortunately, rather terrible at coming up with descriptions that seem to have the right amount of decorum and yet actually serve their function of adequately describing the story, so here's the coursenotes. - The story follows a fire elemental. (As you can tell from that, it is heavily besed on fantasy with mages and the like. Technology will not feature prominently) -As mentioned in the tags, this will have game-like aspects. (E.G. levels, stats. I will be trying to put my own twist on this notion however, so bear with me if the premise intrests you but you despise LitRpg) -It'll get rather dark, but not devastatingly so. (I'm trying to write a more complex story so it will have its dark moments, the prologue being one of them. Rest assured the whole story will not be this dark, though I'll make sure that no-one is a saint either) -The protagonist/protagonists will not be a Mary-Sue. (The plural will be understood when I'm further into the story. They also won't be impossiby unlikeable such as those in many Light novels.) -There is no prophecy (Anyone who says there is, is lying, trust me.)

Neos Online (Hiatus)
Every person has a tale. A story with which a person defines the world around them. Yet the question remains, is it the person who defines the world, or the tale itself? In the case of Elijiah Pierce, it is a question that many don’t really understand the answer to. His story was thought to have ended with the ending of the Third World War. A retired super-soldier who wished to live in peace is brought back into the worlds tale as his memories threaten to overwhelm him. With psionic individuals on the rise throughout humanity, the United Worlds Council asked for a company, any company, to help deal with them. With the turning of 2234, Corellec Inc introduces a new sort of entertainment for the billions within the Sol system. A game built upon DDVR, or Deep Dive Virtual Reality. A realm built within the net allowing the players to have their playground. This would, in essence, help solve the problem. With his friends and family wishing him to try something to deal with his problems, he finds himself venturing into the virtual realm of Neos Online. The very game that had been in the process of gathering players for its Beta. It would come to pass that not only would this game change him, but it would also be changed by him. For both machine and man harbor secrets that could change the course of human history, and not every secret should be brought to light. --------------------------- I'm shite at writing synopses, so just give it a try and see if you like it. I do not claim ownership of the cover art, it is just a stand in until I can commission a piece.
