“Don't you find that swordsman familiar?" Untold Paths said to the young Shield Warrior, smiling. "And his name, you should have heard it not long ago."

"I have?" The young Shield Warrior took another look at the Swordsman among Xia Qingying's group of four. Then, his eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "Black Flame! He is Black Flame!"
