"Cultivation talent is typically measured by the speed and efficiency at which a cultivator can gather and refine Qi. To improve cultivation talent, cultivators must engage in consistent training and cultivation, as well as seek out powerful cultivation resources and techniques.
Some common indicators of cultivation talent include the speed at which one can reach higher cultivation levels, the strength and purity of one's Qi, and the ability to efficiently utilize cultivation resources.
strengthening their Qi and refining their cultivation techniques. This can be achieved through consistent training, cultivating with high-quality resources, and seeking out powerful cultivation techniques and guidance from experienced cultivators"
"Host, cultivation talent is 1 absorbed Qi per minute. This means that you can absorb Qi at a slower rate than most cultivators, making it harder for you to advance in cultivation."
"Host, Cultivation Talent: 1 Qam"
Liang Wei asked the system, "what is a normal person's cultivation talent??"
The system responds, "On average, a person's cultivation talent is around 5 Qam, which is considered to be a relatively low level of talent, your father has a cultivation talent of 6 Qam."
"Eh!", Liang Wei asked the system shocked, "what is a normal person's cultivation talent in our sect??"
"Heavenly Sword Sect has an average cultivation talent of 10 Qam." said the system.
As Liang Wei saw his cultivation talent compared to others, he began to despair. "No wonder, others look down on me I don't even have talent comparable to rough cultivators let alone cultivators from giant sects like Heavenly Sword Sect"
The problem-creating system noticed Liang Wei's despair and sent him a notification:
"Dear Host, it is important to remember that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. While your cultivation talent may be lower than some others, there are many factors that contribute to success in cultivation, such as hard work, dedication, and proper technique Also you have the Problem Creating System. As you Overcome Problems, you can become the strongest cultivator in the world. Keep working hard to solve problems and you will see progress in your cultivation journey."
"Congratulations, you received a new Problem: rank A, increase cultivation talent to 5 Qam, Reward: +5 Qam"
The notification was meant to encourage Liang Wei to keep working hard and not let his lower cultivation talent discourage him.
"System, show problem details," said Liang Wei still feeding down.
. . . .

. . . .
Liang closed his eye and stated to cultivate he wanted to cultivate for 18 hours straight to complete the first continuous Problem to increase his talent.
As Liang closed his eyes and began to cultivate, he felt the familiar sensation of Qi flowing through his body. He focused his mind on absorbing the Qi around him and increasing his cultivation talent.
Hours passed by, and Liang remained in a meditative state, his body absorbing the Qi at a steady pace. As the hours turned into double digits, Liang's mind began to wander, and he found himself struggling to maintain his focus.
But he knew that he couldn't give up. He had to complete the mission to increase his cultivation talent. So, he dug deep within himself, finding the strength to continue.
Finally, after 18 hours of continuous cultivation, Liang opened his eyes, feeling a surge of energy coursing through his body. He knew that he had succeeded in solving the problem and increasing his cultivation talent. this is the first time he cultivated for more than 3 hours.
As he cultivated for so long he realized he has been negotiating his cultivation due to his low cultivation talent. He can't feel Qi as clearly as others with high talent could so he doesn't enjoy his time during meditation like them. So he focused on increasing his sword skill, without the dedication to increasing the cultivation.
"I need to take my time in cultivation seriously in the future," Liang said to himself.
"Congratulations, you completed the first continuous Problem, Reward: 20% + Qam, 0.2 Qam"
"Congratulations, you received the second continues Problem: Absorb Qi from the Spirit Stone for 36 hours straight, Reward: + 0.5 Qam"
Linag thought to himself, a Qi refining cultivator needs at most 1 hour to absorb a low-grade sprite stone he has 10 not enough to cultivate for 36 hours. he needs a total of 40-42 sprite stones to complete the mission.
Liang Wei thinks to himself, "I need to find a way to get more low-grade sprite stones if I want to complete this mission. Maybe I can search for places where they are abundant like the sect spirit stone mine or ask other cultivators in the sect if they have any extras that they can lend me. but here are not many people in the sect who will lend me sprite stone"
He went out of his house, he calls this house it is more like a hut, and went to look for his friends to get some sprite to solve the problem.
. . . . . .
Liang Wei's two friends in the sect, Liu Yang and Chen Xia, were both from the same small town as him. They had grown up together and had always dreamed of joining the Heavenly Sword Sect to become powerful cultivators.
Liu Yang was a tall and muscular young man, Liu Yang is a funny and talkative person, always cracking jokes and making others laugh. He has a carefree personality and doesn't take things too seriously. his cultivation talent is so-so and has reached the fifth stage of the Qi Refining Realm.
Chen Xia, on the other hand, was a petite and cheerful girl with a bright smile and a quick wit. She was always there to cheer up her friends when they were feeling down. She has been friends with Liang Wei since childhood and joined the sect at the same time as him. Yang Fang is currently in the sixth stage of the Qi Refining Realm
The three of them had been through a lot together, from the hardships of growing up in a small town to the challenges of entering the Heavenly Sword Sect. They had supported each other through it all.
Now, as Liang Wei faced this new challenge, he turned to his friends for help. He knew that he could count on them to support him and help him find the resources he needed to complete his problem mission.
Liang Wei went to Liu Yang's house and knocked on the door. Liu Yang opened the door and welcomed Liang Wei with a smile.
"Hey, Liang Wei, what's up?" Liu Yang asked. Liu Yang bear hanged him.
"I need your help," Liang Wei said removing Liu Yang's hand around him. " I need some sprite stones to cultivate."
"Wow, that's been a long time since you asked for sprites tones," Liu Yang said. "Let me see what I have."
They joined the sect for four months, Liang Wei didn't cultivate much so he didn't ask for sprite stones after the first month of failing to progress.
Liu Yang went to his room and came back with a small bag of sprite stones.
"I have about ten low-grade sprite stones here," Liu Yang said. "They're not much, but I hope they can help."
"Thank you, Liu Yang," Liang Wei said gratefully. "I really appreciate it."
"No problem, man," Liu Yang said. "We're friends, right? We're always here to help each other."
Liang Wei smiled and thanked Liu Yang again before leaving his house. He went to Chen Xia's house to get the rest of the spirit stones.
As Liang Wei approached Chen Xia's house, he saw her standing outside with her boyfriend, Zhou Jian. Chen Xia noticed Liang Wei's presence and immediately greeted him, but Zhou Jian looked at him with disdain.
Zhou Jian's family is a prominent cultivator family in the Heavenly Sword Sect. They have been influential in the sect for generations and have produced few powerful cultivators. Zhou Jian's father is an elder in the sect, and his mother is also an alchemist like Liang Wei's mother but has made many contributions to the sect's medicine department. Zhou Jian himself is a talented cultivator with a high cultivation talent, which has made him a rising star in the sect.
"What are you doing here, Liang Wei?" Zhou Jian said with a sneer. "I don't think you're welcome here."
Chen Xia quickly interjected, "Zhou Jian, don't be rude. Liang Wei is my friend."
Zhou Jian scoffed, "Friend? He's just a lowly outer sect disciple. What can he offer you?"
Liang Wei remained calm and composed, "I need your help, Chen Xia. I am in a hurry to increase my cultivation, and I need some spirit stones to cultivate."
Chen Xia hesitated, but Zhou Jian interrupted, "High-grade spirit stones? Do you even know how valuable those are? I doubt you can afford them."
Liang Wei ignored Zhou Jian's taunts and continued speaking to Chen Xia, "I understand the value of spirit stones and I am asking for low-grade spirit stones, but I am willing to trade or compensate you for them in the future."
