It do be like that with manga/manhua tbh. I still prefer Korean webcomics because I like my trash but... It's been ages since I read a decent Chinese webcomic or manhua. They are so fucking trash. I'm sure there are some good ones but... Yeah.
That's the problem, I love wuxia, I love stupid power levels and all that, I love my trash comics. It's the story they tell alongside that that irks me to no end.
Close to zero decent dialogue between people besides shitty villains talking big until the hero flips his eyelash and suddenly everyone is bowing to them. There's no interesting characters, no banter.
To give some examples of wuxia done right (I like the top batch more but the other ones are alright):
Return of the mount hua sect
Infinite levelling: murim
Return of the crazy demon
Nano machine
Absolute sword sense
Star instructor or something
I reincarnated as the crazed heir
Path of the shaman
Half wuxia:
Murim login
All of these have a mc with personality, there's decent banter between characters, there's an interesting plot, plot changes make sense...
There's also the "dungeon" theme with portals that grew in popularity since solo levelling (around then) that is basically the same trash plot with another power level vector.
