Su Yunqing had always seen Saitama as someone whose combat power could not be measured, the undisputed pinnacle of One Punch Man.
How strong Saitama was depended on how strong his opponent was.
The Limiter was merely one explanation for why Saitama was so powerful.
She was not the only one who thought so. Otherwise, people would not have compared Saitama's combat power to characters from anime such as Dragon Ball.
It was because of the seemingly invincible power Saitama had displayed.
But after Ying Zinian said that, Su Yunqing felt as though all her previous assumptions had shattered.
So Saitama's strength did have a standard. He was still the ceiling, but not the ceiling of all worlds—only the ceiling among all the characters in One Punch Man.
The reason he had been able to crush his opponents before was simply the gap in their strength. Now, he had encountered a powerful opponent close to his own level, someone he could no longer defeat with a single punch.
How should she put it? It made perfect sense, but it still felt like he had lost that aura of invincibility.
Though perhaps that aura had been something they themselves had added to him.

Ordinary Group Owner: "Boros, a dignified Universe Overlord, couldn't even break through Saitama's defenses and was instantly defeated by a Serious Punch. Just how powerful was this opponent, to fight Saitama to the point where even Saitama admired their strength?"
Boros had not earned the title of Universe Overlord because someone casually gave it to him. He had fought for it himself.
Yet even he had been instantly defeated by one punch from Saitama.
Who else could possibly be badass enough to fight Saitama to that extent?
