- The spiritual leader of an oriental country is dying. The leader's evil brother Khan is plotting to prevent Kashi, the youthful heir, from assuming his rightful position. Tarzan is summoned to protect Kashi and, in doing so, he must face Khan in three tests of strength. The final test is a sword fight which takes place on a wide-mesh net stretched over cauldrons of boiling oil. Jeweled elephants lead grand processions, and a thousand girls perform the "dance of the candles." A baby elephant named Hungry replaces Cheetah in the humor role.—Ed Stephan <stephan@cc.wwu.edu>
- Tarzan travels to the Far East at the request of a dying leader to escort his replacement, a young boy named Kashi, to the capital for his investiture. The dying man has reason to fear for Kashi's safety. His brother Khan believes that it is his son who should sit on the throne and is prepared to do whatever it takes to accomplish that. Tarzan faces many challenges as he must first convince the monks who have been educating Kashi that he is in fact Tarzan. With that out of the way, Tarzan and Kashi are attacked on the way to the capital by Khan and his men. When they finally make it to the capital, Khan invokes the right of a fourth and final test to confirm the boy as the legitimate heir: a fight to the death with his champion, Tarzan. Only one will survive.—garykmcd
- On his deathbed, the ailing monarch of an exotic oriental country summons Tarzan, the lord of the jungle, to protect Kashi, the rightful heir. In the meantime, Kashi's wicked, power-hungry uncle, Gishi Khan, is determined to keep Kashi from taking over, convinced that his young son is the only one who should rule the land. Now, two sets of three formidable challenges, designed to test the contestants' skill, strength, and wisdom, await both Tarzan and Kashi. Can Tarzan, the fearless tiger of Africa, pass the impossible Challenge of Might?—Nick Riganas
