When Guan Tong's Mind Power touched Shangyuan Zi's, they naturally developed a strange perception of each other.
Chen Na had once said that after activating her [Perception Domain], she could distinguish different Ascendants through Mind Power alone, because every Ascendant's Mind Power was different.
Guan Tong had never felt that before, but ever since hearing Chen Na mention it, he had paid attention.
Now, he could indeed sense that Shangyuan Zi's Mind Power differed from his.
The sensation of her Mind Power touching his, if he had to put it into words, felt cold and damp, and truly made him think of a snake.
"Looks like it failed." After a moment, Shangyuan Zi, who had felt nothing, spoke.
"Yeah."
They released each other's hands. The Mind Network had failed to form.
"Maybe the problem is me. Didn't Zhang Minglu say the test had to be conducted by Ascendants with the highest Mind Power? My Mind Power Cap isn't that high, not even seven hundred."
If other Ascendants heard her say "not even seven hundred," they would surely be furious and think Shangyuan Zi was showing off.
But Guan Tong knew she had no such intention.
Remembering something, he said, "I forgot... you were kept in confinement for a long time."
Yuze Chun had previously kept Shangyuan Zi confined in Yingqi's administrative building. To restrict her, she had even used an item on her that continuously absorbed Mind Power.
As a result, Shangyuan Zi had been unable to maintain a normal, healthy Mind Power cycle during her confinement, causing the growth of her Mind Power Cap to slow down or even stagnate.
"Perhaps you should try with someone whose Mind Power Cap is close to yours."
Although Shangyuan Zi did not know Guan Tong's exact Mind Power Cap, she knew it
