人中骐骥 — “A person of exceptional talent or ability”

During the Southern Dynasties period, Xu Mian became an orphan at a young age and his family was very poor.

Despite his circumstances, he was diligent in his studies. By the age of six, he could already write essays.

As an adult, he became even more studious and tireless, achieving significant accomplishments in literature. His clansmen praised him, saying, "This is truly what we call a 'magnificent steed among men'; he is destined to travel a thousand li a day."
