In Breaking Dawn, mental skills and mental strength prevail over physical strength. Although Bella is physically the strongest vampire in the Cullen family since she's a newborn, her inexperience as a fighter renders her useless against the strategic fighters of the Volturi army. On the other hand, her strength of mind and her ability to expand her mental shield around her family and friends eventually prevents a war with the Volturi. Plus, Bella possesses the mental strength to control her thirst for blood as a newborn vampire.
