As expected, Saitama defeated Cho Yun, who had full health.

Almost everything is immeasurable.

It might seem strange to connect these concepts, but I'm not saying they are identical in themselves. Most mastery users don't possess a Unique Path, suggesting it's not a requirement for mastery, but rather a special ability linked to those with exceptional potential.

The main distinction is that people don't transcend mastery itself. Instead, they transcend when they reach the Path to Mastery, and that moment can trigger the awakening of a unique ability: their Unique Path.

In other words, the Unique Path isn't separate from the Path to Mastery—it's an ability unlocked upon reaching that stage. That's why the word "Path" is part of its name: it's something born from the journey towards mastery.

For most people, progression is simply:

Path to Mastery → Mastery

But for true geniuses—those capable of awakening the unique path—progression becomes:

Unique Path → Mastery

Under this interpretation, Transcendence (from Quest Supremacy) and Path to Mastery (from Lookism) represent the same fundamental stage: the moment when a person reaches the threshold of mastery. However, for individuals with exceptional talent—likely those with the potential for SSS-level growth—reaching this stage also unlocks a unique personal ability: their Unique Path.

Following this logic, the Transcendent Johan seen in Quest Supremacy would later be on the Path to Mastery after his fight with Manager Kim, with his Unique Path awakened as a result of reaching this stage. And Daniel Park would have achieved transcendence along with his Unique Path.

I was trying to understand how level measurement works, to see if it was possible to classify the statistics into numbers, but in the process I found a curious case between two cards, 'Grip The Lightning' and 'Jigen-ryū'.

In theory, both increase speed by the same level, but in practice the result is different.

Jihyeon Lee before awakening had an S-Rank speed. The awakened version without using 'Jigen-ryū' from her statistics was not shown, but logically, her awakened speed should be equal to or greater than the old one.

The version of her that uses the skill and went through awakening, having at least an S-Rank as a base, reaches SS-Rank thanks to the skill. That is, using this logic, to go from S to a level equal to or greater than SS, a buff equal to or greater than three levels would be necessary.

With this, we can conclude that Cheonhak Yang, who upon awakening had an S-Rank speed, having a base speed equal to or less than hers, would reach at most SS-Rank.

But he reaches rank SS+, surpassing her, that is, at base level, without using her cards, she has a speed equal to or greater than his, but when both use their abilities that increase three levels, he surpasses her.

With that, two options come to mind: The first is that the abilities that mention level, and possibly those that do not mention level as well, could have their effectiveness altered by their potential level. Thus, if they have a higher potential, their ability would apply a greater speed bonus. In this way, if a character with higher potential copied one of these techniques, they would receive an even greater bonus. Another option would be that, in the case of the 'Jigen-ryu' card, the three levels add up the strength bonus and the speed bonus, increasing each by 1.5 levels, or some other similar distribution. I would like to know your opinion on this, which option you think is most likely or if I missed something.

Like, I stopped to think that even a person with common potential in the work, with the right training, could exceed the human limits of our world. That being said, I come to the doubt: what would be the potential status of someone who, in the ideal scenario, would only reach a status equivalent to the human limit of our world? F, E, or even lower?
