Background

Hu Li Na’s parents served under Tuoba Xi and died during a soul-hunting expedition alongside Tuoba Yan’s parents and the former Pontiff. She and her elder brother, Xie Yue, were left orphaned and subsequently raised by Martial Soul Hall. 11

She attended East Academy Junior Soul Master Academy and lived with Xie Yue in Zero Dormitory. Tuoba Xi attempted to arrange a marriage between her and Tuoba Yan, viewing her Innate Soul Power and potential connection to the Pontiff as assets to the Tuoba Clan; Tuoba Yan repeatedly rejected the proposal. 11 15 16

Following the Soul Hunting Valley graduation trial, Pontiff Bibi Dong selected Hu Li Na—not the champion Tuoba Yan—as her disciple and presented her with a Yellow Springs Crystal. 38

Appearance

Hu Li Na is a tall, slender girl with refined features and a naturally bewitching presence. Her beauty and charm are emphasized both in ordinary appearance and after Martial Soul possession. 14

• Her Soul Fox possession produces fluffy fox ears and a soft fox tail. 14
• Her transformed appearance is described as more graceful, alluring, and fox-like than her normal form. 14
• Fox Spirit Transformation sharpens her ears and changes her hair to fiery red. 32
• Her eyes can emit pink light while using Charm Arts and Fox Charm. 18 32

Personality

Hu Li Na is intensely competitive, proud, and unwilling to accept defeat. After Tuoba Yan resists her Fox Charm and defeats her, she repeatedly challenges him despite his refusal, driven by humiliation and determination to win. 15 17 18

She places strong importance on her charm-based abilities and initially expects opponents to succumb to them. Tuoba Yan’s mental resistance and Golden Eyes frustrate her because they nullify the advantage on which she has relied in previous battles. 15 19

Despite her impulsiveness, Hu Li Na cares deeply for Xie Yue. She seeks revenge after his defeat, warns him when she recognizes Tuoba Yan’s tactics, and shields him after he is injured. 25 26 27 She also fights the masked attacker to protect herself and cries out for Xie Yue after he is incapacitated. 32

Abilities & Skills

Soul Fox Martial Soul

Hu Li Na possesses a fox-type Martial Soul that enhances her physical allure and enables fire- and charm-based combat techniques. 14 19

• Manifests fox ears and a fox tail during possession. 14
• Supports the use of pink foxfire and Charm Arts. 15 19
• Her foxfire is ineffective against Tuoba Yan’s fire-resistant Saint Martial Spirit. 19

First Soul Skill — Eerie Foxfire

Hu Li Na releases pink foxfire projectiles that pursue a marked target. 15

• Can launch multiple foxfires at once; she produces six while using Fox Spirit Transformation. 15 32
• The flames can track Tuoba Yan after he is marked by her Soul Power. 15
• The skill is countered by the masked attacker’s Ice Whirlwind and is largely ineffective against Tuoba Yan’s fire resistance. 19 32

Second Soul Skill — Fox Charm

Fox Charm combines Hu Li Na’s voice, gaze, and charm techniques to bewitch opponents. 15

• Can force a three-second stun unless the target’s Spirit Power greatly exceeds hers. 15
• Hu Li Na can combine the Soul Skill with a close-range attack to exploit even a brief opening. 18
• Tuoba Yan’s Spirit Power and Golden Pupil Martial Soul render him effectively immune. 15 19
• The masked attacker can break free of the effect due to his superior strength. 32

• Increases Spirit Power and attack power by 150%. 32
• Increases speed and strength by 200%. 32
• Enhances the offensive effectiveness of Eerie Foxfire when used together. 32

Charm Arts

Hu Li Na has trained in Charm Arts since childhood and uses them alongside her Soul Skills. 15 16

• Her charm had defeated every previous challenger in Zero Dormitory before encountering Tuoba Yan. 15
• It reinforces the effects of Fox Charm through her speech and gaze. 15 18
• It cannot overcome opponents with exceptional mental resilience. 15 19

Equipment / Items

• Storage Soul Guide Device — Used to store and draw a dagger during her fight with the masked attacker. 32
• Dagger — Used in an attempted throat strike after Fox Charm briefly affects the masked man. 32
• Yellow Springs Crystal — Given to her by Bibi Dong upon accepting her as a disciple. 38

Relationships

• Xie Yue — Elder brother and fellow Zero Dormitory resident. They support one another in conflicts, and Hu Li Na is visibly protective when he is injured. 15 25 27
• Tuoba Yan — Dormitory mate and rival. Their first meeting becomes a bathing-related misunderstanding, followed by repeated clashes; she later distrusts him as a coward because she does not know he secretly healed and saved her. 14 15 19 35
• Bibi Dong — Pontiff of Martial Soul Hall and Hu Li Na’s master. Bibi Dong chooses her as a disciple after the graduation trial. 38
• Tuoba Xi — Her deceased parents formerly served under him. He attempts to arrange her marriage to Tuoba Yan for the Tuoba Clan’s benefit. 11 15
• Zhang Ping — Trial companion. Zhang Ping helps stop the masked attacker from violating Hu Li Na, then conceals Tuoba Yan’s rescue and healing from her. 33 35

Story Role / Major Arcs

Zero Dormitory Conflict

Hu Li Na encounters Tuoba Yan in the shared bathroom at Zero Dormitory and assumes he intentionally watched her bathe. She attacks him with Eerie Foxfire and Fox Charm, but his superior Spirit Power resists her control. 14 15

Her repeated attempts to defeat Tuoba Yan end in humiliation, especially after he uses Golden Eyes to predict her attacks. After suffering a prolonged defeat, she withdraws into seclusion and dedicates herself to cultivation. 17 18 19

Xie Yue’s Challenge

Still resentful, Hu Li Na calls on Xie Yue to challenge Tuoba Yan. She watches as Tuoba Yan defeats her brother using the Chicken Charm, a Mental Force Cage, and Rasengan. 25 26 27

After Xie Yue is defeated, she is forced to sign a one-thousand-Gold-Soul-Coin IOU on his behalf as a challenge fee. 27

Soul Hunting Valley Trial

Hu Li Na, Xie Yue, and Zhang Ping offer to team up with Tuoba Yan during the graduation trial. When a masked attacker targets him, Hu Li Na and Xie Yue fight to protect him but are overpowered. 31 32

The attacker captures Hu Li Na after defeating her Foxfire and Charm techniques. Tuoba Yan later defeats the attacker and secretly heals Hu Li Na, Xie Yue, and Zhang Ping with the Horse Talisman. Hu Li Na wrongly believes Guardian Knights rescued them and grows more prejudiced against Tuoba Yan. 32 35

Graduation and Discipleship

Hu Li Na and Xie Yue reach the sixth level of Soul Hunting Valley, tying for second place. They are shocked when Tuoba Yan is declared champion, and Hu Li Na publicly demands an investigation into his achievement. 36 37

During Tuoba Yan’s explanation, he severs and immediately restores Hu Li Na’s arm with Horse Talisman·Time Reversal, demonstrating his healing ability before the assembled students and Martial Soul Hall officials. 37

At the graduation ceremony, Bibi Dong chooses Hu Li Na as her disciple, granting her a Yellow Springs Crystal and placing her on the path toward the Pontiff’s succession. 38
