Adam's Moonslicer did cut thru all of Yang's aura in one go. The more he store up before release the more potent. It's like guns in RPGs. They ignore defense stats and do damage regardless (usually low though, but no so in this case).

I think if anyone gets Blake it would be Weiss and Sun. Weiss because she's get running from your problems and in her case her family/father. And Sun gets her because he likely knows he's felt the sting of things he's done at times. Especially since he steals and stows away. His plan of what she should do made more sense to me, but I would just have had her take all of team RWBY to do it. Maybe Sun stalked her to watch her back not to just be a creeper. In that light 8 months shows dedication.
