Synopsis

The Soul Vein and Dantian Classification: A Measure of Innate Talent and Cultivated Mastery

Soul Vein and Dantian Classification

This classification system evaluates both innate talent and cultivated abilities, demonstrating progress through intense training and energy refinement. Precision ranges from micrometers to atomic scales, indicating mastery over energy control and manipulation.

Note when it comes to talent that talent at this level of precision is inherently possessed or subconsciously utilized, often exhibited during cultivation or even breathing. However, consciously harnessing and mastering one's talent is a distinct challenge, potentially requiring decades to centuries of dedicated practice. This classification system provides a framework for evaluating progress toward mastery.

Substage Classification

I-Awakening (initial mastery)

II-Resonance (harmonized control)

III-Mastery (refined expertise)

IV-Ascendancy (advanced mastery)

V-Perfection (complete domination)
