What are the rankings of the four great beasts in ancient China? Personally, I think the ranking is Suzaku, Qinglong, White Tiger and Xuanwu.

The four great beasts are Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu. Tsing lung and white tiger palm in all directions, Suzaku Xuanwu meets Yin and Yang, and the four-spirit beast is the black dragon and white tiger, Suzaku Xuanwu Tiansi spirit. Qinglong is the God of the East; White tiger is the god of the west; Zhu is known as the god of the south; Xuanwu is the god of the north, and the tortoise and snake are one. Therefore, there is a "three auxiliary maps" saying: "Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu, Tiansi Spirit, taking the square as the square, the king makes the palace pavilion and takes the method." The ancient ancients divided the sky into four palaces, east, west, north and south, named after Qinglong (black dragon), white tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu (a turtle-shaped god). In fact, the sky is divided into four parts, which are connected by seven main stars in each part and named after their shapes.

The horn, horn, room, heart, tail and dustpan of the East Palace are shaped like dragons, so it is called Qinglong or Black Dragon.

The seven western stars, Kui, Lou, Stomach, Ang, Bi, Horn and Shen, are shaped like tigers, calling the West Palace the White Tiger.

The well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing and net in the south are bird-shaped, called suzaku;

The northern seven-star bucket, cow, female, empty, dangerous, houses and walls are shaped like turtles and called Xuanwu.

As a result, Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu have become the four gods who guard the heavenly officials, create evil and regulate Yin and Yang. Among the four gods, Qinglong and Baihu are mainly regarded as spirits to ward off evil spirits, and their images mostly appear in palaces, temples, gates or tombs and their artifacts. On the last occasion, the dragon is not helping the tomb owner ascend to heaven, but deterring evil spirits and defending the soul peace of the tomb owner.

Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu: Four Holy Beasts is the ancestor of all animals. Jin Mu, four lines of fire and water.

Qinglong controls the power of thunder for nine days (thunder robs the sky). It is blue and belongs to wood. It protects the animals in the East and guards the stars in the East Palace.

The white tiger controls the power of tornadoes and storms (summoning all animals). It is white and belongs to gold. It protects western animals and guards the stars in the West Palace.

Suzaku controls the power of burning fire (three unique fires in heaven and earth), and vermilion belongs to fire, protecting southern animals and guarding the stars in Nangong.

Xuanwu's power to control ice and snow (dark ice) is black and belongs to water. It protects the animals in the north and the stars in Gong Bei.
