Your phrasing is screwed.

Your perception is lacking.

No, it's your mistake.

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.

No. The last object was the skill at swordfighting. If your had added a new object, such as "person", it would have worked.

"I'm [a] better [person] because of it."

It's "What I did on my holidays" level writing.

Again, your comprehension is at issue here. This is hardly a new circumstance.

Look, if I'd put that in an essay the lecturer would have made a comment.

You miss phrased. Deal with it.
