Furina knew full well that Wang Yan's words carried the well-intentioned advice to remain humble and cautious, yet they could not hide the curiosity—almost overflowing—of a research-oriented teacher regarding unknown abilities.
He was taking an indirect approach, attempting to pry their mouths open.
After all, in the original work, Wang Yan had shown a great desire to explore Huo Yuhao's abilities; in the Early Stages, he did not even fully understand the details of Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul.
Was this an information barrier between Shrek Academy teachers, or was there some other reason? Furina couldn't be bothered to dig deeper.
Now that Huo Yuhao's spirit ring configuration was even more "outrageous," and with her, an "anomaly" competing alone as a Spirit King, it was perfectly normal for Wang Yan to be so interested.
She simply took the initiative to offer him a step, making the conversation more direct.
"Okay, Teacher Wang Yan, we have taken your teachings to heart."
Furina smiled slightly, but her tone shifted abruptly.
"However, aren't you curious? Curious why Huo Yuhao's seemingly ordinary white spirit ring has such miraculous effects, curious why I can possess such Soul Power at this age, and even more curious why I have the confidence to participate in this team assessment alone?"
Wang Yan was stunned, then realized his thoughts had been seen through by this incredibly intelligent girl.
He coughed slightly, cleared his throat, and simply stopped hiding it.
"Well... I am indeed very curious. I heard that Huo Yuhao's First Soul Skill seems to be some kind of extremely rare 'precognition' type auxiliary skill. Although such Spirit Abilitys are rarely recorded, the system of Spirit Abilitys is as vast as the sea, and Martial Souls differ greatly. Even when hunting the same Soul Beast, the Spirit Abilitys obtained by different Spirit Masters can be vastly different."
He turned his gaze to Huo Yuhao, his eyes filled with even more curiosity.
"Moreover, Student Huo Yuhao, you have only used your First Soul Skill in the five matches so far, and the other two spirit rings have never lit up. This really makes me... itch with curiosity."
Huo Yuhao nodded calmly upon hearing this and said directly, "Teacher Wang Yan, rather than guessing, why don't you experience it yourself?"
Before the words fell, a pale golden light flashed in his eyes, and his First Soul Skill quietly lit up. The dual effects of Spiritual Detection and Spiritual Sharing instantly enveloped Wang Yan.
In an instant, Wang Yan was shocked!
He felt his perception infinitely magnified and extended. Everything within a radius of several hundred meters, down to the smallest detail, appeared in his mind with a clarity that was almost like a "God's perspective."
The texture of grass and trees, the trajectory of flying insects, the subtle expressions of distant students... all details were clearly revealed. Even the movement trajectories of dynamic objects seemed to be slowed down and predicted. This feeling of controlling the whole situation and observing everything was simply shocking!
"This... how is this possible?!" Wang Yan exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.
"Is this really an ability that a ten-year spirit ring can grant? The range is so wide, the precision is so high, and the effect is so domineering! In my knowledge, even the top Body Martial Soul could never have such a Heaven-Defying auxiliary effect with the first spirit ring!"
But what he didn't know was that this effect was actually just Huo Yuhao controlling the range appropriately.
Huo Yuhao waited for Wang Yan to calm down a little from the shock, and then explained calmly, "If you must have a reasonable explanation, it can be attributed to my mental force being far superior to ordinary people, and my physical fitness being specially trained, much tougher than Spirit Masters of the same Rank. These factors work together to strengthen the basic ability of my Body Martial Soul,'Spirit Eye'. As for the deeper reasons..."
He paused, his tone sincere but firm, "It involves some secrets that I must keep. Please forgive me for not being able to tell you, Teacher. However, regarding the Second Soul Skill and Third Soul Skill, I can disclose: the Second Soul Skill tends to be pure attribute assistance, and the Third Soul Skill focuses on control."
"My chosen future direction is a control system Spirit Master, not just purely auxiliary. The auxiliary effects of the First Soul Skill and Second Soul Skill are to enhance my battlefield adaptability and team contribution, making me more comprehensive."
Wang Yan listened to Huo Yuhao's clear and goal-oriented explanation, and his shock deepened.
An eleven-year-old boy not only possessed unbelievable abilities but also had such a clear plan and profound insight into his future path! This kind of Heart-Nature and wisdom far exceeded his peers.
He took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and praised sincerely, "Well, clear thinking, clear planning, very rare. I believe that in time, you will definitely go very far on this path."
Moving his gaze away from Huo Yuhao, Wang Yan looked at the smiling Furina again, waiting for her "explanation."
Furina's answer was more straightforward, even with a touch of casual arrogance.
"If Teacher Wang Yan has heard of the Axis Cult, you should have some understanding of my identity. I, Furina, am the founder and Pope of the Axis Cult, as well as the successor of the Water God's God Position, the future Water God herself. As a successor to a deity, isn't it... very normal for my Soul Power to grow faster and my spirit ring configuration to be special?"
Wang Yan was choked by these words, and for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
The logic seemed sound, but the word "deity" had not truly appeared in the Douluo Continent for ten thousand years.
Since the Original Shrek Seven Devils collectively became gods and ascended to the God Realm ten thousand years ago, in the long years, no matter how many brilliant Limit Douluo emerged in later generations, including the current Master of the Sea Gods Pavilion and the world's strongest Dragon God Douluo Mu En, none had been favored by the God Realm to open the God Trial. Miracles had long since become distant legends.
This young girl in front of him, young in age, with shocking Soul Power and abnormal spirit rings—if she said she had accepted some powerful God Trial, it might explain her growth that exceeded all specifications.
