In the Nine Provinces cultivation world, the categorization of a cultivator's aptitude has sixty-four tiers, represented by sixty-four leaves, the higher the number, the better the cultivation aptitude.
This represents a cultivator's affinity with nature's spiritual energy, and the efficiency with which they absorb and release nature's spiritual energy.
After all, for the vast majority of cultivators, absorbing and releasing nature's spiritual energy is the primary and safest method of cultivation, while consuming elixir pills is merely a supplementary measure.
Therefore, cultivation aptitude becomes particularly important.
The origin of Lu Ye's nickname 'Yiye' stemmed from the results of his aptitude test in Evil Moon Valley.
Yiye's talent was barely better than those who couldn't cultivate at all, mere common folk.
