As stated by Winter, by practicing one's semblance, it could become more powerful. It could also suggest that just by using it normally in combat can strengthen it, which to me sounds like an obivous outcome. What i want to know is what she meant by stronger.

What i believe she meant, is that by training/using one's semblance, it could have abilities beyond normal conditions, in other words "leveling." For example: If Ruby's semblance, Speed, was to become stronger over time, she could possibly have the ability to teleport from places instead of running the distances which takes time. If Yang's semblance was to become stronger, her additional strength won't be proportional to the damage given, but rather double the damage given, making her even more powerful with each hit, if not in the future exponential.

Another idea i think would also play is additional abilities. Not only will the semblance become stronger at its core function, but will gain other aspects. Yet again with the sisters: Since Ruby's semblance makes her legs move faster (assuming that her legs IS what makes her fast), a stronger semblance will not only affect the speed of her leg movement, but her arm movement, therefore making Ruby able to swing her weapon at a much faster rate. In Yang's case, if she gets stronger each time she gets hit, she could gain passive ablities such speed and reflex or offensive abilities, all of which that grows after each hit.

TL;DR: "Leveling" one's semblance is just like a branching skill tree. More experience equals better capabilities and additional skills.
