Black Disc
Energy
Brainiac gets his rating from the Black Disc, a fragment of which has enough energy to destroy half a continent. However, the full power of the Black Disc is able to sustain him indefinitely, which is why he needed to constantly absorb outside sources of energy during Season 7.
As mentioned before, Baern only absorbed an incomplete fragment of the Black Disk, which only contained a finite amount of energy. Even without exerting himself, he was able to kill Raya in seconds, who's roughtly comparable in speed and strength to Clark himself. In this scene, he also overpowers the Crystal of El (a storage system for energy) briefly, which effortlessly defeated Zod, nonetheless he was defeated and sent back to the Phantom Zone. Clark even has doubts that it will work, implying he's stronger than Zod while he was possessing Lex.
Clark actually had a feat on his profile for vaporizing every bit of water contained in a dam, which amounted to Small Town level+ and clearly required his utmost power. That's honestly way more consistent for Season 6 of Smallville. For example, he withstood a blast from Baer, who effortlessly reduced a person to ashes, that tired the latter out. In Prototype, Clark could break through the force field of Wes, who possesses a forcefield at least as powerful as a previous model that was barely stopped by the equivalent of a mini-nuke.

Also, his battle with Bizzaro also shook the aformentioned dam, and in season 8, he and Lana could produce tremors across Smallville while they were both at half his normal power level.
Lifting Strength
As mentioned in the title, I'm also going to attempt a lifting strength upgrade. In an alternate timeline (not alternate universe) where he proposed to Lana, Clark was able to crush coal into diamond with one hand, which is Class 100.

- Bizarro Clark: Look at yourself. You can barely catch a rat.
- Brainiac: I am the Brain InterActive Construct. No matter my form, my intellect remains formidable. Do not underestimate me. You should continue your search for Dax-Ur.

- Raya: Baern is too dangerous to attack anywhere else. With the power he absorbed from the box, he could wipe out half a continent.
- Clark: If he's that strong, will the crystal still work?
- Raya: It should, provided we stay alive long enough to use it.
- Clark: Raya, I told you the Fortress is dead. Why are we here?
- Raya: It's our only hope to defeat Baern. This was all we had left of our home, Kal-El.
- Baern: Big talk, big man. I'm surprised you're still standing. I guess Jor-El was right about how the yellow sun affects you Kryptonian cockroaches. But I'm back. And now... I'm supersized. This is the perfect place for the fall of the House of El. Paying for the sins of your father can be a bitch.
