Caleb was looking around the tournament and was really impressed at actually being able to witness this in real life. It was quite the spectacle with people filling up the seats rather quickly, the drummers were well banging on the drums, he couldn't comment much on music but they sounded good. He didn't get to experience this in his previous life since he was always so introverted and busy with his job as a cashier in a fast food restaurant.
He stopped having thoughts like that when he saw Po waving him and Mr Ping over from the front row, it seems that Po despite his limited stamina managed to get good seats. They made their way over to where Po was, as it seems that things were still getting ready as people were making their own way to their spots.
"Sup Po" Caleb flashed him a peace sign "Hey Caleb, Dad you made it!" Mr Ping of course felt out of place with this whole Kung-fu tournament, that and he wasn't working on selling any noodles and in hindsight how could either of them carry a noodle cart up the stairs and not get winded. He was blinded by the profits and noodles to see that his son didn't enjoy noodles like him.
"Of course son" Mr Ping said simply and took a seat next to his son while Caleb took the spot on the other side of Po and Po just felt happy to witness this with his new best friend and his dad.
Caleb meanwhile was trying to block the sun from his eyes. He forgot why he didn't go out much during the daytime and only went out during the night, the drum beating started to stop as master Shifu spoke.
"Citizens of the Valley of Peace it is my great honor to present to you. Tigress! Viper! Crane! Monkey! Mantis! The Furious Five!"
Everyone looked as The Furious Five leapt from atop the palace performing a brilliant display of flips and martial arts prowess before striking a mighty pose.
Crane finished off the display with a powerful flap of his mighty wings, which caused a mighty gust of wind that whipped past the audience.
Caleb felt the wind of that shoot up right past him that left him blinking in surprise. While Po felt goosebumps not from the wind but from the sheer Kung-fu awesomeness radiating off the furious Five.
Caleb decided to take a look at his inventory while to take a gander at his new skills book.
[1x Skill Book]
He pressed on the book icon and it said.
[Would you like to learn this skill?]
[Y/N]
He pressed yes as the book icon vanished from his inventory, transferring its knowledge into his mind/body.
[Skill Learned: Dodge (Active/Passive)
User quickly dodges attacks.
Grants a 5% increased chance to evade physical attacks automatically]
Caleb was kinda hoping for a combat skill like something for unarmed combat but this works too but for now all he's gotta do is enjoy the tournament while he can.
He watched as Shifu motioned for Crane to start off the tournament by facing off the Thousand tongues of fire which was a deadly machine with dozens of flaming arrows protruding from its surface.
Crane got into position as the workers inside the machine fired it up firing dozens of fireworks at Crane with him dodging all of them gracefully as he took to the skies. Everybody gasped in shock and awe at the fluidity of Crane.
Caleb just continued to look at his system and made the discovery that time didn't just pause as like Skyrim, time still seems to have been passing on as he delved more into his system settings.
Speaking of time passing on by, Monkey was next as bounced into the arena somersaulting and flipping from the pillars like he was showing off in a circus.
He grinned and winked at the crowd clearly enjoying the attention.
Caleb couldn't care less as he was focusing on his new system and was still looking over it completely engrossed in it. He still looked up from time to time but other than that kept his attention on his system.
He was looking though the shop feature and found out that there was infinite amount of things he could buy. He could've even bought living beings such as Pokemon and people from fiction. He decided to see if he could also buy devil fruits from One Piece and he could and so he wanted to see what else he could potentially buy in the future.
His was doing nothing but window shopping but he still responded and agreed with Po about how cool Viper was with her mixture of ribbon dancing as she sparred with Mantis.
Eventually the match concluded and then Shifu announced that Tigress would be up next and that was when he had his full attention on her.
The reason being that he'd like to watch her fight that huge machine they called the juggernaut which had six arms and all of them held axes.
It took a swing a Tigress with her jumping over it as it tried to attack with her repeating her motion until she jumped high in the air and landing a blow.
It repeated like that a couple times before she landed one last strike and one question pondered in Caleb's head.
'Why do some people have a crush on Tigress?' He never understood it nor saw anything in her.
It was surreal to him that Po was here to witness all of this.
His thoughts were interrupted as Oogway had spoken up and now everyone in attendance was deathly silence as Shifu silently instructed the furious Five to get into position.
Caleb could only wonder what would happen since Po was already here. He hoped that Po would still be chosen despite him being here early.
Caleb had nothing to fear as Oogway had pointed at Po all the same. He guess it was meant to be which was swell but he didn't seem to figure out it was him.
"Uh Po I think he's pointing at you?"
"No must be someone in front" Po denied
"Po I don't mean to be rude but Oogway is pointing right at your head which is easy to spot in a crowd like this"
"Come here panda" Oogway said as it was obvious who he was pointing at which left Shifu and the Furious Five confused. "The universe has bought us the dragon warrior"
"The Panda?!" Shifu exclaimed in disbelief. "Master he can't possibly be the solution to our problem"
Po was having a hard time excepting his destiny as Caleb was trying his hardest to push him literally as the other critters had moved out of the way like Moses did with the sea.
[New Quest Started]
His system had pinged him with something but he couldn't be bothered right now so he'll look at it look at it later as Po finally made his way to Oogway as he made his way to the stairs as he started to leave as everything was falling into place and plus he needed some place to be quite so he could breath a sigh of relief that Po was chosen as the dragon warrior.
He decided to look at his system ping.
