Meanwhile, Master Guosong's amazing history of his life in Shaolin and coming to Canada is shown. Master Dao is also introduced as Master Guosong's key disciple and discusses his goals of helping his master in carrying on the traditions. Master Dao talks about the early challenges of training in Shaolin Kung Fu and then how he established the first school in downtown Toronto.
