The crap they were spouting reminded me of a novel I've read called "World's Strongest Newbie".
The main character was an isekai litrpg protagonist who completed every quest in his world, attempting to go home. Instead, he ended up getting sent to another world that made 'Hell' difficulty look like a fluffy bunny compared to a T-rex.
In that world World Heroes, cultivators, Braves, demigods, and even system users (litrpg characters) were everywhere. But system users were the dregs, and looked down on by everyone else due to their overall weakness in comparison to everyone else. They reached their current power level by relying too much on the system, so had very little real 'skill' to back them up. The strongest of them were something like D rank, lol. And I think the rankings went up to SSS.
The main character DID work for most of his power, and didn't rely only on stats and system skills. So like all mc's in that kind of setting, he ended up super op compared to people of the same power level.

Because as they said, Otherworlders are seen as an 'inferior' species of humans. And since he is one, he's seen as inferior. Think of it like those series where there's massive prejudice against demihumans or elves. Even if there ARE demihumans and elves out there that can level mountains and obliterate cities, they'll still be called 'inferior'.

Until we're told that the people of thise world CAN have skill boards, I don't think they can level up. Their base is much stronger than the Otherworlders. You can see that just by that one villager (who didn't fight monsters or he wouldn't have been killed by the bugs so quickly) lifted an entire tree and swung it like a stick. So your comment was the reverse. Otherworlders start out weaker unless they have some starting skill points to spend on stat boosts like the mc did. The goddess made a comment that sounded like that isn't always true.
