Confusion regarding the invariant rational functions

I was reading S. Mukai's- An Introduction to Invariants and Moduli, and I came across Proposition 6.16 on page 195 (see the screenshot below)

enter image description here

It says that "every invariant rational function can be expressed as ratio of semiinvariants of weight $\chi$."

Should it be $n\chi$, for some $n\in\mathbb{N}$?

The reason I'm confused is because- say I consider the weight space determined by $\chi$, i.e., all the semiinvariants of weight $\chi$. It has the structure of a $\mathbb{K}$-vector space. Say I choose two of the basis element $p,q\in\mathfrak{B}$. Now consider the invariant rational function $\frac{p^2}{q^2}$, which is ratio of semiinvariants of weight $2\chi$.

I don't understand how can I write $\frac{p^2}{q^2}$ as ratio of semiinvariants of weight $\chi$?

Also, does the Definition 6.15 about "stable with respect to $\chi$" coincide with the King's stability condition (see here) in the context of quiver representations?
