Soryn seemed surprised at what Shingi just told him.
Mentioning being Blessed Human as this wasn't something the public was aware of, even Shingi himself didn't know everything.
Benjamin and Varan seemed to be aware of them, but they were exceptional people who had sources that could learn things like that.
Soryn was part of the Air Spire who had sources at the same power as people like Benjamin and Varan, or so were the rumors.
Shingi expected it, which is why he mentioned this and possibly learn about the existence of others like him as Benjamin, and even Varan didn't know of any.
The Air Spire was older than Varan himself, so their knowledge could be even more remarkable as they were an organization of many people and not just a single person.
