The World Beneath Our Feet (1)

Now its Eli's turn to be Slugterra's next Shane -- whether he's ready or not! Unfortunately, the slugslinging tournament he enters to prove that he's ready, quickly shows that he's not! So when word of this new Shane reaches the ears of the nefarious Dr. Blakk, he's not too worried... yet.
