Upon hearing Tang Thirty-Six's comment, Chen Changsheng knew who the youth under the pavilion was. After becoming acquainted with Tang Thirty-Six, and even more after becoming schoolmates with him in the Orthodox Academy, he had heard the words 'wolf cub' from his mouth far too many times. Only now did he realize that this small wolf had been in the north this entire time.
A wolf was not a dog, and so being called a wolf cub was not an insult as being called a dog pup would be. Tang Thirty-Six and many other young geniuses on the Proclamation of Azure Sky had grown accustomed to using the term 'wolf cub' to describe that terrifying youth from the north. In reality, it was used to ensure that they and this youth remained on the same level, to close a sort of distance between them, and it also signified…respect.
