Morphology
unbloodied = bloodied (transparent) = un + blood + ied
The prefix 'un-' clearly negates the adjective 'bloodied', indicating the absence of blood stains.
Etymology
Unbloodied is made of un- ('not') and blood ('the red liquid in the body'), so it means 'not stained with blood' — someone who comes out of a fight or match without injury.
