If you are happy with "pe" for that, then you don't need anything else:

xu zo menli poi cmene cu melbi do

"poi" would be used to restrict to a particular aspect or capacity of
an individual rather than to some particular individual(s) from a set.
(That sort of matches the etymology of "qua" too.)
