His potential was far above Terra and Aqua, as noted by both Eraqus and Master Xehanort.
And being a Keyblade Master does not make one stronger than another Keyblade wielder.
Case in point, Terra is far more skilled with the Keyblade than Aqua, and could've won their duel if he used his dark powers during the Mark of Mastery exam.
Btw, one of the requirements of the Mark of Mastery exam is the wielder should keep his darkness in check. Which means strength is not the only factor.
But Terra and Aqua still look down on him when it comes to combat and the like. Terra always used to beat Ven in training [I think] and Xemnas being above Terra combat wise was on par with Sora in their one-on-one matches.
Yeah going by rank wasn't the best idea.
Aqua is equal to Terra in total as Terra didnt use his Darkness but she didn't use her magic where she's only below Xehanort in that area.

Well, we never saw what Ventus was capable of with the X-Blade, though it seems like wielding a complete X-Blade automatically makes you the strongest in KHverse.
Well not exactly. There is still the matter of it being cracked by the walking awesome that is Aqua.131

But if they fought 1-on-1, it might be a stalemate since both are strongly connected to the light, and both can use Hidden Technique (Ars Arcanum) though Ven's is a bit stronger.

Why yes, I have. I'd wager that I was the first to play it and beat it, at least out of everybody on here.
And there is still the matter of my statement being correct, as Aqua does crack the X-blade.
At 4:06.
Ventus fought off Vanitas, who was wielding the incomplete ÷-blade, inside their Dive to the Heart, while Aqua and Mickey Mouse fought off Ventus-Vanitas (who wielded a completed ÷-blade until Aqua destroys part of it with her Keyblade.
^ Copied from a wiki.
Regardless of what you guys say, the X-blade used against Aqua and Mickey looked very complete(and I don't recall anything that says it's a shell of the complete X-blade). And it still doesn't change the fact that Aqua cracked it and it then looked like an incomplete X-blade.
I actually look at the internal battle with Vanitas taking place at the moment Aqua cracked it, which makes Vanitus believe it wasn't really completed. So he confronted Ven again to make it whole once more, where he was defeated and blah blah blah stuff happens. Which, my wiki thing seems to indicate the battles took place at the same time, but whatever.
