Liu Xiyan was stunned.
Why had he stopped the test?
Why had he come back after standing before the eighth Ancient Blade for only a breath or two?
Had he given up without even trying?
Liu Xiyan felt her head buzzing.
For a moment, she could not understand why Mo Yun had done that.
Lin Qingxue looked just as puzzled. "Junior Brother, why did you stop the test?"
Meanwhile, Mo Yun slowly walked over to the two women.
"Junior Brother, why did you stop the test?" Liu Xiyan asked bluntly.
"I finished it," Mo Yun answered honestly.
"No, I mean, why didn't you try resonating with the eighth Ancient Blade?" Liu Xiyan stressed.
"I did try. I just failed," Mo Yun said truthfully.
"Uh, but didn't you only stand before the eighth Ancient Blade for a breath or two?" Liu Xiyan scratched her head.
As far as she knew, a breath or two was nowhere near enough to make the special inscriptions on an Ancient Blade react.
Mo Yun considered this. "For me, a breath or two was enough. Didn't you notice that I only needed ten breaths or so to resonate with each of the earlier Ancient Blades?"
"Maybe I'm a little different from you?"
Hearing that, Liu Xiyan grew thoughtful.
After considering it for a moment, she accepted his explanation.
After all, Mo Yun had only spent ten breaths or so on each of the first five Ancient Blades. Nothing like that had ever happened before.
Even the sixth Ancient Blade had only taken him around thirty breaths.
So this handsome junior brother resonated faster than ordinary people?
At that thought, Liu Xiyan could not help asking, "Junior Brother, is the eighth Ancient Blade especially difficult to resonate with?"
Mo Yun nodded in wholehearted agreement. "It really is.
