My community in where i live isn't big at all (Moreno Valley, SoCal) so I don't have anyone to train with so i basically I play by myself, but one question i would like to know is if its better playing with cpus or online? Which will help me more? I find myself fighting a lot of laggy links online who roll to the edge a lot and spam Fsmash so i don't really learn anything. It's much easier for me to play with cpus, but i have a feeling that it will give me a bad habit. Which will help me more?

Lv9 CPUs are not good to train against because they can perfect shield / airdodge everything, which most people can't. imo amiibos are better, until they reach lv50, when they become near impossible to win against.
Honestly, the best way to train is against people, so online is probably better.

If you are training for offline tournaments, then you are better training with a friend or acquaintance. Look for someone here on smashboards who can play against you, online or offline. If you are training for online play, then the For Glory experience will definitely be useful, even the spammers, after all, you are not going to be a great player if you can even deal with spammers.

Good answer. Unfortunately, I'm not that sociable in real life.

online is very lag prone, its not the best environment for getting tourney ready.

Don't train against lvl 9 because they can perfect shield and can frame perfect air dodge. I would say go with lvl 8, they are powerful, but don't do moves frame perfectly like lvl 9, therefore they are more like a human opponent.
