After all, he’d been through a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this passive skill was truly incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First Move: Enhances predictive ability to anticipate an opponent’s moves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the name implied, [First Move] enhanced Wang Shuo’s predictive ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if that was all it did, Wang Shuo wouldn’t have been so shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Wang Shuo thought that [First Move] and [Insight] might have overlapping functions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he took a closer look at the two Passive Skills, he quickly discovered their differences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Insight] was about devising strategies and controlling the overall situation, predicting the opponent’s next play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, \"opponent\" didn’t refer to an individual player, but to both sides as a whole—the entire game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, [Insight] was more about improving his ability to read the game, deepening his prediction and analysis of the match’s flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also why his off-the-ball movement had improved so drastically after he obtained [Insight].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with [First Move]’s ability to \"anticipate an opponent’s moves,\" the \"opponent\" here referred to individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And not just one, but every single individual Wang Shuo could focus on, predicting their next action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher its level, the more players he could track.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was absolutely insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, in one-on-one or even one-on-N situations, [First Move] could dramatically boost Wang Shuo’s individual ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imagine it: when he had the ball, he could constantly track the movements of multiple players around him, predicting and deducing their next moves in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t that allow him to find the optimal solution in real-time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t it be much harder for opponents to stop him then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This is pushing me to keep honing my individual skills!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo couldn’t help but smile after clearly understanding the effects of the [First Move] passive skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he hadn’t tested it in a match or on the training ground yet, based on his experience with his other Passive Skills, he was sure [First Move] would be a huge help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he hadn’t gotten the passive skill he wanted for strengthening his physical contact, Wang Shuo wasn’t disappointed at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed that [First Move] definitely wouldn’t let him down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, two things were most important now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was defeating St. Pauli in the final round to help Mainz secure a spot in the Bundesliga for next season.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was his special training over the summer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already mentioned this to Klopp, Buvac, and Axel Busenkel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This summer was crucial for him, so he didn’t plan on returning to his home country. Instead, he would stay at the club and train hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From landing in Germany in January, to arriving in Mainz in March, to now, Wang Shuo felt like a whip was constantly cracking at his back, forcing him to keep charging forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply hadn’t had time to stop and properly analyze the pros and cons of his time playing in Germany.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, he hadn’t properly adapted to and integrated his six Passive Skills either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He always felt that he was still far from unleashing the full threat of these Passive Skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of the Passive Skills were completely independent. Figuring out how to combine them would require Wang Shuo to find some time to stop, study, and practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, this summer was the perfect opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo’s rented apartment was in a residential area south of Mainz University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was about 2.5 kilometers from Bruch Road Stadium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every morning, Wang Shuo would set off from his apartment, jog past Mainz University, cut through Bruch Road Stadium, and arrive at the first team’s training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually at this time, before team practice began, there was hardly anyone around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But today, as Wang Shuo passed through the parking lot south of Bruch Road Stadium, he discovered that a crowd of fans had already gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo found this very strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Wang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp-eyed Mainz fan spotted Wang Shuo jogging over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The greeting immediately drew everyone’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hi, good morning.\" Wang Shuo’s smile was a little stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the first time he had faced so many fans alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grew a little nervous, especially when he remembered how this same crowd had completely mobbed Bruch Road Stadium last night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, he still didn’t know how to communicate and interact with German fans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The club hadn’t given him any guidance on the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, a young, blonde female fan came forward and proactively offered Wang Shuo a handshake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, I’m a student at Mainz University. Can I take a picture with you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female fan was delighted. She immediately moved closer to Wang Shuo and asked another Mainz fan nearby to take a photo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could you sign an autograph for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Wang Shuo suddenly remember that he didn’t have an English name, so he simply signed his name in Chinese.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female fan was overjoyed and gave Wang Shuo an enthusiastic hug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo stood rooted to the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She has a great figure!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But, miss, we were just taking a picture, why the hug?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Did you pay for this?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I could report you for assault.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, Wang Shuo wasn’t sure if \"hugging back\" would get him accused of something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Essien had warned him: \"It’s a dangerous world out there for a guy, you have to learn to protect yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Shuo would rather play against Cologne again on the pitch than face such an awkward situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once there was a first, others soon followed.\u003C\u002Fp>",955,"2026-05-30T11:12:32.550Z","2026-06-01T04:31:05.348Z",1,"novelbin.me","0edcc58e9255ec532ca1fc8462385c3c32cd7ddf1f36fa9d82f8dd106823db82","the-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-chapter-62","the-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-chapter-60",400,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-god-of-football-starts-with-passive-skills-cover.jpg"]
