Su Xin ranked sixth on the Human Ranking, while Yan Dongchen ranked eighth. But in the eyes of other martial artists, the gap between them wasn't actually all that great.
The one ranked seventh on the Human Ranking was the Thousand-Faced Demoness, Yin Xiexue. But disciples of the Phantom Demon Path had never excelled at head-on clashes, so she could practically be ignored as the one caught between them.
