Crack theory my ass.

WIth Aura being too similar to chi, there's just no way that needle focus is just to make Cinder look evil.

Since chi is supposedly the primary reason why pressure points exists, acupuncture is a method used in fictionland to block the flow of chi through the body.

So aura blocking? Totally can happen. Hell, I don't think the needle will be necessary. Just a well-place strike on Pyrrha's back for example could do that.
