With a total talent pool of 100 points, one can have a talent that is graded along the percentages of 5%, 10%, 20%, 40%, and 80%. Each grade is labeled from grade one to grade five, with grade one being the poorest talent.
But if someone is poor in terms of the body, they can't be poor in terms of mana affinity or spiritual acuity.
This is why it is said that everyone is talented. Even mediocre people with an average talent of 33% in the three groups are doing well.
But his situation is unfair because he is a late bloomer. The talent for the body affects the progress of the first mortal coil and the second mortal coil. It has a strong impact on cultivation right from the first mortal coil.
The talent for mana affinity, on the other hand, has a small impact on the first mortal coil. Its strong impact doesn't appear until the second mortal coil when the cultivator can leverage their talent for mana by going with the path of energy refining.
