I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

But this wasn't the thing that attracted his attention. As he passed the gate, he saw a giant steel wall covered in various inscriptions 

Around 60 people were gathered around the wall and in front of them was a middle-aged man with a stony expression on his face.

"seeing as almost all of you are here, I'll explain this stage of test." said the man 

"The Hidden Dragon Academy is a place for only the kingdom's best elites, so each aspect of you as a cultivator must be a step above the rest of the competition!

In cultivation, we focus on the manipulation of energy and how to use it for special moves, but often neglect the most fundamental aspect of starting cultivation. 

The body!

For all cultivators, the body is the vessel used to carry all the energy we refine during our cultivation process,yet such a vital aspect is only tempered in the very first stage of cultivation.

This lack of development of the body leaves a glaring weakness that our standards at The Hidden Dragon Academy just won't allow!

To handle the strong cultivation techniques of The Hidden Dragon Academy, a powerful body is a must, and that's what we're testing at this stage of the entrance tests

You, as an examinee will can choose any weapon we provide to attack this wall with only your physical strength and depending on the strength of the attack, the board above will light up either red, orange, yellow or purple.

Red is a fail 

orange is a passing 

yellow is a good 

And purple is excellent 

beyond purple is gold, but that achievement is so rare that, if we exclude the royal family, only 20 people have gotten gold in this test since the founding of the Hidden Dragon Academy!"

But unlike everyone else, when Dante heard this, he was pretty relaxed.

He was quite confident in his physical strength.

His 700% increase in physical strength from his passives allowed him to crush anyone in his level when it came to brute strength!

All he had to do was watch a few people go first so as to determine the best way to go about the assessment.

"first!" 

suddenly the middle-aged man called out, causing the unlucky individual who had been given the first number to step forward.

Immediately, he ran up and chose a plain sword from the rack.

"Well, what are you waiting around for?! Attack the wall!"

hearing the examiner's instructions, the young man and slashed at the wall with all his strength 

"Bang!"

Satisfied with the strength he put into his attack, a smile appeared on his face 

the examiner cut him off

"Red light, fail! Go again!"

in desperation, the young man swung again with all his power, but unfortunately, his results didn't change at all

"Red light, fail! Next!"

Facing the fierce gaze of the examiner, the young man didnt even argue as he  walked off in despair as another unfortunate soul stepped up to take his place 

"Red light, fail!"

"red light, fail!" 

"what's the wrong with these examinees today! Did you all not eat a proper meal!"

the examiner roared in frustration at the examiner 

eventually a young man around 18 years old stepped up to make an attack

"Bang!"

"orange light. Good, you pass!"

The young man let out a sigh of relief as soon as the examiner spoke out 

mans moved aside.

The young man passing seemed to start a fresh change as more and more people began to pass the strength test, but for every person who passed, there were at least 10 others that failed.

"Next!" Soon, the examiner called up the next examination. 

Looking around, Dante quickly realised that it was him and quickly got up and started moving.

...

meanwhile, in a luxurious room somewhere, two old men sat as they watched a projection appear in front of them.

"So Jarred, that's the son you've been boasting about. It seems like his turn is up."

"Hahaha! Vincent, just watch. You'll be surprised at what you see..."

...

Dante slowly walked up towards the test site. 

At  first Dante felt like he should hide his talent and be a bit low-key. After all, wasn't that what all the wuxia novel protagonists do?

But he quickly remembered what his grandfather told him

he had friends in high places that could make life much easier for Dante, but to enjoy all those perks, Dante had to show the full extent of his strength!

That meant to put all his strength on display for the world to see and Dante was all for it!

Besides, Dante always felt like pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger was kind of stupid.

Why pretend to be a pig when you can crush the tiger with your strength in the first place! "

As Dante got closer to the wall, he suddenly felt his energy drain from him.

no, to be more accurate, it felt like his energy was in fact sealed! 

'formation!'

Those words instantly popped into Dante's head.

from the little knowledge he had about the world, he was sure that the only way that this kind of trick could be done would be through the use of formations.

ignoring the uncomfortable sensation of having no spirit energy, Dante lightly jumped on the spot, warming up his limbs.

Raising his fists up, Dant exited a simple move he learnt from his past life.

Tensing his limbs, Dante burst forth with an explosive amount of power from his legs.

transferring the terrifying amount of kinetic energy into his arms, Dante sent out a killer right hook straight at the wall 

"Bang!"

The wall shook from the impact as the inscriptions on the wall lit up in bright light trying to resist the impact.

"Purple! Excellent, you've passed witch flying colours!"

"Woah!"

gasps of surprise sounded as they saw the rare occurrence. 

But Dante wasn't finished just yet.

You get two chances to attack and his first one was only a warm-up!

Dante closed his eyes and slowly focused on controlling his body 

Slowly under his control, his blood began to circulate faster and as a result of this, his heart seemed to go into overdrive, beating madly inside his chest.

Dante's skin seemed to go red as a result of this increased blood flow

The move Dante was using now had the same principle as his forbidden technique he was forced to use all those months ago in the body refining realm.

The only difference is that now Dante's body was incomparable to what it was all those months ago.
