Ye Chen learned a lot from the Thunder Spirit King. Although this era's martial geniuses seemed to be at their peak, the older generation martial geniuses were not that much weaker either. The top warriors would be at a similar level as the current ones, as they had all entered half step king warrior level before reaching forty years old. They even managed to get in on the list of Life and Death Realm warriors. Right now, after almost a decade, they were all reaching their fifties, so their cultivation must be comparable to their real power.
It also explained why there were no martial geniuses in their forties or fifties besides them on the master warrior rankings, and that they had become the 'older generation' directly. It was because most of them had become half step king warriors, so they naturally would not come out to compete among master level warriors.
