seasons!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This alone showed just how outrageous Benfica’s fouls against him had been during the match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just how lenient the head referee’s officiating was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could even be called condoning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In post-match reports from media outlets like Bild and Kicker Magazine, Wang Shuo saw that some were blaming Platini.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since taking office, the UEFA president had been a strong supporter of leagues and teams from smaller nations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This often resulted in teams from the four major leagues facing severe home-field bias from referees when playing away games in Europe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, the Passive Value calculated by the Ball God System didn’t lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these extra 14 points, Wang Shuo’s accumulated Passive Value now stood at 137.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing before the giant football, Wang Shuo first looked at [Breathing].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was eager to upgrade [Breathing] to World-level and unlock his Domain Skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for now, his priority was to improve his overall abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His current Passive Skills levels were as follows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intercontinental Level: [Breathing], [Ball Sense], and [Swift].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>National Level: [Inverted Foot] and [Foundation].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regional Level: [Insight], [First Move], [Spiritual Light], [Coordination], and [Eagle Eye].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professional Level: [Breathing].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Special Skills: [Damage Reduction].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some time getting used to his skills, Wang Shuo felt that [Breathing] wasn’t urgently needed, so he had held off on upgrading this passive skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps after he turned 25, this passive skill would become immensely useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he wanted to upgrade his Regional Level passive skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All five passive skills were very useful and effective, but some were more urgent than others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo quickly made his choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Use 50 Passive Value to upgrade the passive skill [Coordination] from Regional Level to National Level?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Use 50 Passive Value to upgrade the passive skill [First Move] from Regional Level to National Level?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining three passive skills were also excellent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Insight] and [Eagle Eye], needless to say, were like having his own personal LiDAR and HD camera on the field, helping him capture more information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The [Spiritual Light] passive skill was also incredibly useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when making decisions, Wang Shuo would occasionally get a brilliant flash of inspiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was only one aspect of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other, more important function of [Spiritual Light] was to seize fleeting opportunities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo even felt that with this skill alone, once upgraded to a high enough level, he could make a name for himself in the European Football Scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The perfect skill for a poacher!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at the current Dortmund, Wang Shuo still had to rely on himself most of all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Be a poacher?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Waaaah, I’m not worthy of that yet, am I?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His next step was to accumulate more Passive Value through matches and raise his overall abilities as quickly as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Benfica?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>David Luis?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harvey Garcia?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luisao?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’When we get back to Westfalen Stadium, you’ll all be sorry!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To accumulate Passive Value faster, Wang Shuo went straight to Klopp’s office after returning to Dortmund.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me play in the home game against Werder Bremen this weekend!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klopp was visibly surprised by Wang Shuo’s request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Werder Bremen match was scheduled between the two legs against Benfica.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the first leg away ending in a 2-2 draw and Dortmund holding a nine-point lead in the league, the obvious strategy was to rotate the squad, conserve energy, and prepare for the second leg against Benfica.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To put it bluntly, losing to Werder Bremen wouldn’t have much of an impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But losing to Benfica meant they would be eliminated immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I promise, I’ll be in peak condition for the Benfica match!\" Wang Shuo’s desire to play was palpable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just upgraded [Coordination] and [First Move], he desperately needed a match to get accustomed to the two enhanced passive skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klopp could see that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn’t understand why Wang Shuo was so desperate to play, he agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I have one condition: you have to take it easy against Werder Bremen!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Wang Shuo agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dortmund had been plagued by injuries all season long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From De De to Tinga to Kael, a closer look revealed that many of the players who had excelled at the start of the season had since been replaced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their place were younger, more robust players like Schmelzer and Sven Bender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even right-back Owomoyela had been outshone by Schmelzer in the second half of the season.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klopp rotated the squad for Dortmund’s home game against Werder Bremen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as Wang Shuo had predicted, when Dortmund’s system was running smoothly, few Bundesliga teams had a good answer for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they focused on containing Wang Shuo, he would drag their entire defense out of position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the 8th minute, Wang Shuo delivered a brilliant pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grosskreutz made a late run into the box to score the team’s opening goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>1-0!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the 22nd minute, Wang Shuo linked up with Owomoyela and Kuba in the final third before drawing a foul, winning a free kick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subotic scored with a header.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2-0!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, despite being two goals up, Sven Bender reported a problem with his right foot during the halftime break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Klopp quickly substituted him off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With both Kael and Tinga injured, Sven Bender was their only remaining defensive midfielder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man had been performing impressively all season, showing immense improvement.\u003C\u002Fp>",893,"2026-05-30T11:12:32.830Z","2026-06-01T04:31:05.348Z",1,"novelbin.me","01af70a6fbce0bd110cfb8aa83185e9f773f5e23053252144d4f27add6884ab4","the-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-chapter-397","the-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-chapter-395",400,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-cover.jpg"]
