I'm sure there's plenty of skilled fighters they can find that don't have a litany of reasons to want all of them dead. Well for me I can see it due to her fame as well as her close ties to our main heroes who the villains will have to eventually acknoledge as a major threat. Basically seeing as the villains like to attack they're enemies not just physically but emotionally as well. So Pyrrha could be just as much if not more dangerous as an emotional weapon as a physical one. I could see many people in the kingdoms dwell into more confusion and disunity when a hero to many comes back and causes more chaos ansd it having the same effect on our main heroes as well.

that doesn't answer the question "in universe". The only importance Pyrrha has is her own reputation.
