It is a dream that is being fulfilled, since the Monkey King is the great hero of Yang. Yang's role is physically very demanding and the training is brutal. Teachers shake up in Yang's little body. Yang does not have one real friend in school, Yang tries to become part of the football community's other boys, but makes such a lousy figure that it merely emphasizes his outsider status.
