"That's right." Zhang Minglu nodded. "Back then, I also had the base's Ascenders run detailed tests. At first, speaking in the Mind Network consumed nothing, but as the number of times they spoke increased, their Psychic Power began to deplete."
The young academician nodded. "Exactly. Based on this, we can make a bold conjecture: perhaps the opening and closing of the Mind Network is related to the amount of Psychic Power one has."
"You mean to say, an Ascender with high Psychic Power can reopen the Mind Network?"
Zhang Minglu frowned, disagreeing with the conjecture.
The young academician: "It's only a conjecture. It needs to be tested."
"But after that rule ended, we already ran the relevant tests. The base's Ascenders tried to reestablish the network multiple times, and they all ended in failure," Zhang Minglu said.
The young academician said, "Perhaps the Psychic Power of the base's Ascenders still isn't high enough."
"The ones at the base aren't high enough?"
