Path of the Hunt — Emanator-equivalent	241	Spent 78,300 points to exchange 7,830,000 portions of Hunt Path power, reaching the system’s maximum exchange limit for that Path.

Background / History

On the Zhuming Xianzhou, Yunli attained the title of Flamewheel Octet, an honor reserved for those who reach the pinnacle of both swordsmanship and craftsmanship under Huaiyan’s instruction. Her forging talent is stated to rival her father’s potential. 238

Her father’s cursed swords left Yunli with a deep hatred of such weapons. She swore to hunt down every cursed sword he had forged and sever them all, a mission that naturally aligned her with the Path of the Hunt. 238 240

After arriving in the Battlefire Continent, Yunli exchanged nearly all of her points for Hunt Path power and became equivalent to an Emanator. She then spent her remaining points on card draws, acquiring forging materials, sealed heliobi, demon swords, a star skiff, and Lan’s heaven-piercing light arrow. 241 266

Appearance

Yunli is a small, youthful girl who is commonly mistaken for being around twelve or thirteen years old. Her long hair and dress billow during combat, while her small stature contrasts sharply with the oversized greatsword she carries. 240 252

• Frequently described as clean, cute, and exceptionally beautiful. 243 255
• Usually carries Old Mettle on her back or in hand. 252 257
• Wears a leg ring and an anklet bell, both of which were once randomly pulled from her own card pool. 287
• Often goes barefoot, including during her confrontation with Protector Soul Splatter. 271

Personality

Yunli is straightforward, proud, and intensely self-directed. She has little patience for authority, threats, or social conventions when they conflict with her own judgment; her power allows her to act according to her own standards in the Battlefire Continent’s strength-based society. 249 303 312

She follows a simple personal code: repay grudges and return favors. Yunli is ruthless toward enemies such as predatory mercenaries, Soul Hall members, and anyone who attempts to seize her possessions, but she is generous to companions and people she respects. 249 263 320

Despite her overwhelming strength, Yunli has a childish love of food—especially Skewers of Candied Berries, known locally as candied hawthorn skewers. She is willing to trade valuable magic cores for them and reacts strongly when they are ruined. 243 257

Yunli treats swords as living companions rather than disposable tools. She is particularly angered by a wielder abandoning their weapon, believing that a sword has feelings and should be regarded as an important friend. 255

Abilities & Skills
