Shen and Zhao improved each year, and were considered to be one of the top teams in the world.
They won another silver medal at the Worlds in 2000, and a bronze in 2001.
In 2002, they became the first Chinese pair skating team to win a World Championship.

Later in March 2003, as the defending world champions, the team also won their second World Championship in Washington D.C., United States.
While practising their throw quadruple salchow, Shen landed badly and severely injured her landing foot and ankle.
She required several treatments to numb the foot entirely so that she should compete.
The pair performed a brilliant long program that earned them several perfect 6.0's for both technical merits and presentation.
In the 2003–2004 season, competing for the first time under the Code of Points, they placed second at the 2003 Skate Canada and won the 2003 Cup of China.
They won their third Grand Prix Final gold medal at the 2003–2004 Grand prix Final, where they won both the short program with 66.00 points and the free skate with 130.08.
The team earned a total of 196.08 points to finish 18.78 points ahead of their new rivals Tatiana Totmianina & Maxim Marinin of Russia, who were second in both the short and the long program.
Their attempt to win a third straight World title in 2004 was thwarted when Zhao fell during their short program and the team placed fourth in that segment.

Following their wins at all their Grand Prix events, they also won the 2004–2005 Grand Prix Final in Beijing, China, placing first in the short program with 70.52 points and in the free skate scoring 136.02.
