Chapter 186 The Talent Test



After entering, Zhen Long went and stood at the side while Han Cai looked around the hall. It was a grand hall with high ceilings, intricately carved pillars, and beautiful murals adorning the walls. In the center of the hall, a large crystal, half the size of a football, was suspended on a platform in the air. Yongnian had already told Han Cai about it; this was a heaven-grade treasure connected to an array of the Yan family that checked the affinity of the seeds of the family.

Since the Yan family was very large, many children were born every year, and their talents needed to be checked. The ceremony of checking the affinity and cultivation of talent was conducted by the family once every year months. So, besides Han Cai, thirty more kids are present today. There weren\'t more than twelve five years old, but besides five years old, there were some six and seven years old too who had not awakened any affinity last few tests.

Many family elders were present, as checking the talents of future seeds was a crucial family matter, and the family took these things very seriously. Most of these elders came to see the affinity of their grandchildren, while some were there on behalf of the family to record all the details about the children in Clan Ledger.

Han Cai noticed his father, mother, and even his grandfather present.

Even though his grandfather was the youngest elder, he was an old man. Yan Bo had a tall stature, a long white beard, and a stern yet wise expression on his face.

Beside his mother sat another woman, who Han Cai realized might be his first mother. Yongnian had told him that his brother from another mother was going to check his cultivation talent today, too.

Unlike Daxing, where one could only discover a cultivator\'s elemental affinity after they reached the Foundation Establishment stage, here they could determine a child\'s affinity when they were just four or five years old. They had special arrays and methods for identifying the elemental affinities of their young seeds, and every family had their own techniques. However, most families and sects used some kind of treasure connected to an affinity array to determine a child\'s affinity.

When Han Cai\'s mother saw him entering, she smiled at him.

Han Cai stood out from most of the children, as all the children were acting unruly, some crying and others scared. Only Han Cai and a few others stood quietly, waiting for this meaningless farce, at least for him, to start.

They waited for some more time as a few more children arrived. After all the children arrived, one of the elders got up and announced, "All the children, line up."

Some children obediently lined up, like Han Cai, while many others started crying upon hearing the elder\'s orders. The parents whose children did not line up had to get up and make them line up. Han Cai\'s brother, named Yan Chen, did not line up either, so his first mother had to get up and make him stand in front of Han Cai.

Han Cai stayed quiet as, slowly, all the children lined up, and the testing of the children began.

Han Cai\'s brother was in the seventh position, while Han Cai was eighth.

When their talents were checked, out of the six ahead of them, four had an affinity with the flame element, one with the wind element, and they all had mortal-grade cultivation talent, which meant mediocre talent. With every resource of the clan, the maximum they may reach was the Nascent Soul.

The heavenly treasure\'s spirit would announce the results loudly for everyone to hear.

When Han Cai\'s brother, Yan Chen, got on the platform, an elder guided him and asked him to touch the crystal. When he touched it, a red glow emanated from the crystal, and a sound came, "Fire affinity and Earth-grade talent."

Immediately,  all the elders started making noises, and so did the family members. Earth-grade talent meant that it was a good seed; in the future, his brother would be able to reach the level of an Earth Immortal if he cultivated diligently. An Earth Immortal was a valuable resource and powerhouse anywhere, so all the elders appreciated such seed.

Some family elders congratulated Yan Bo and Yan Huan, Han Cai\'s father, and grandfather, on having such a good seed.

Yan Huan and Yan Bo had smiles on their faces, feeling proud for bearing such a talented son and having an Earth-grade talented grandson.

Han Cai\'s mother congratulated the first mother.

While his father, first mother, and grandfather were celebrating, the elder asked Han Cai to step on the platform and touch the crystal.

When Han Cai touched the crystal, the treasure released a small amount of Qi. This Qi was not spirit Qi, celestial Qi, or any other Qi; this was some other Qi. The Qi entered Han Cai\'s body and moved through it before returning to the treasure.

The spirit of the treasure spoke again, "Frigid and Flame affinity. Heaven Grade Talent, Heaven grade physique."

Han Cai was not surprised that Treasure did not find his spatial affinity. Not even divine grade treasure could find out his spatial affinity with all efforts he had put into hiding his spatial talent.

When the announcement was made, every elder and person in the hall was busy talking about the Earth-grade talent that Han Cai\'s brother had. The moment the announcement was made, the whole hall went silent.

In every generation of testing, one or two members would always have Earth-grade talent. So earth grad talent was rare to have but still not very rare.

In the Yan family, Heaven-grade talent was quite rare; maybe one or two Heaven-grade talents would be born in the Yan family every ten years. Heaven-grade talent was confirmation that the seed would be a future core elder of the clan.
