Summary Using the Mushroom Sausage the group fly out of the forest and return to Shrek. Later that evening Flender and Zhao are talking about the events that happened and they are trying to figure out what the bull's roar was. Xiaogang joins them saying it was probably the Green Ox Python of The Heavens and Flender introduces him to Zhao, who realizes that he is Grandmaster and San's teacher.

Merging past and future San has a vision of the Cliff of Devil May Cry and his past self, telling him he has a long path in front of him, that he chose it (and cannot return to the other world), and that he has to walk it for them both and not forget their goals, before fading away. San then announces he will create a Tang Sect in this world.

Green Ox Python of The Heavens Back with the teachers Flender asks about the Ox Python and Xiaogang tells him it is the true ruler of the forest, above even the Ape, and that it lives in a lake at the center of the forest. A Spirit Master had discovered it when he had gone to the forest center to fight the Ape, and encountered the Ox Python as well when it rose out of the water upon sensing him, speaking to him and telling him to leave.

Teacher tea time Flender concludes the team got lucky. Xiaogang asks about what Rings everyone has gotten and Zhao tells him about Oscar's, and he's suitably impressed. Flender acts proud saying of course since everyone there is a monster, and that they will become more so with Xiaogang there. Xiaogang reminds him that he is mainly there for San, and Flender says he hasn't forgotten, but that Xiaogang will have to wait till San is level 40 to go on a Ring hunt with him, surprising Xiaogang that San has reached 30 already, before he comments that San will surpass his father before long.

Kids meet Xiaogang The next day Xiaogang approaches the kids with Flender and Zhao and San runs up to greet him with Wu. The others ask San who that is and he says his Master. Flender gets the kids to line up and introduces Xiaogang as the Grandmaster, and Xiaogang states he will be taking over their training and that they will start tomorrow. Suddenly San tells everyone to move away and doubles over, the Spider legs sprouting on his back again, lashing out wildly. While the others dodge Hongjun doesn't move in time and gets scratched, which causes him to pass out from the poison.

Soul Bone issues Xiaogang gets Flender to take Hongjun inside and kneels in front of San, telling him to imagine the Soul Bone retracting into his back and walking him through it until he can retract them. Xiaogang then takes San where Hongjun is and tells him to remove the poison from Hongjun's body. When San asks how Xiaogang says that the bone is a part of him and he can use it to guide its poison out, and that if he doesn't hurry Hongjun will die. San calls out the Soul bone again and is able to shakily figure out how to get the poison out.

Healing Hongjun They go outside and Xiaogang tells the others that Hongjun will be fine. After the teachers leave San admits to his friends that he is still having trouble adapting to the Ring, but that he is fine and they should go check on Hongjun. Mubai tells San to tell them when something is wrong next time because they are brothers, which San ruefully agrees to, and the kids besides Wu enter the building. San then asks Wu if she knows what an External Spirit Bones is. Wu is surprised and asks if that is what is on his back.
