While most of the White Immortal sect's attention locked on the blood-soaked yang platform, a minority—thirsty men and relatives, mostly—focused on the yin side. The superstar power, violence and controversies surrounding the yang platform explained the mismatch. But at least the yin competitors garnered praise for the lack of deaths and maiming on their side.
Of course, it wasn't so much that the ladies were less vicious than the men—oh no no no—rather, their platform carried more safety nets, preventing even ruthless blows from resulting in maiming or deaths.
The reason for this discrepancy? Guang Fanghu. Zi Yao tried her best to give the girls the same chance at brutal slaughter as the men, but Guang Fanghu took an iron stance—threatening no end of repercussions should anything happen to his baby girl. The Yin Matriarch would rather not have to deal with her husband's endless antics, and so didn't challenge his madness.
