For direct rail, high speed rides is the only option. If you can transfer in other city first, you may consider to take an overnight sleeper train from Xi'an to Hefei and then change to a high speed train to Huangshan. By taking hard sleeper and second class seat, the cost could be lowered to about CNY400 per person. It can also save you one night hotel cost too. Hope this information can help you.
