I had one friend who could kick my ass for years with a sword until I got better. I'm much better because of it.
You're better because you got better. Makes sense.
If you follow the context, yes it does.
No, it doesn't.
Your phrasing is screwed.Your perception is lacking.
You had a friend who was better than you, so he kept beating you. Then you got better and beat him. You are better because you got better.The two betters in this case are different. One refers to skill and one refers to personal growth.
It's "What I did on my holidays" level writing.Again, your comprehension is at issue here. This is hardly a new circumstance. wes
