Okey, you are right. Thank you for the correction. The photo was from the 2017 World Championships.

WMY’s blade in the photo looks like W968 Li Xiaoxia but I’m not sure.
I think it is real. Letters on the handle side AHABA? is the production date 2018-12-1? of the blade. The next F denotes that the blade is a market version. So this is a real HL5 market version.
New HL5 is HL5X which has official number 968-6, thicker core thickened 0.5mm, and thinner top ply. Google search ‘dhs HL5X’ or '新版狂飙龙5X' for more information.
