That, Swampydrake99, is one of the most common aspects (clichés) in anime/manga storylines. The main protagonist always has to suffer in some way to get anywhere, even if he doesn't deserve it. While I personally don't like the concept, some may argue it's necessary. Ever watched The Dark Knight? It's like what Harvey Dent says: "The night is always darkest before the dawn".
