Soon, Po endeared himself to most of the Five (sans Tigress) with his impressive tenacity, culinary skill, and good humor, even though he was still unable to grasp the basics of kung fu. Taking Oogway's advice to heart, Po had arrived early in the courtyard to practice, surprising Shifu and Five, who had been convinced he had quit. After fighting and defeating the guards of the prison, the snow leopard grasped the messenger and told him to tell those at the Jade Palace that 'the real Dragon Warrior is coming home.' Anxious to have the Dragon Scroll himself, he began his return to the Valley of Peace. Meanwhile, Tai Lung had escaped from his Mongolian prison, using one of the loose feathers from the very messenger goose Shifu had sent to assure the prison's security, and was able to pick the lock of the acupuncture restraint he was held in. When discovered by Master Oogway, who understood his troubles, the tortoise gave him the advice to focus on his present situation instead of worrying about the failures of the past or future. That night, Po was dejected after his first day of training, more so after being coldly told off by Tigress, and subjected himself to overeating, stuffing his mouth with peaches picked from the Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom.

The red panda later tried to pressure Po into quitting, subjecting him to the dangers of the Training Hall and a grueling series of matches with the Furious Five, all of whom (especially Tigress) thought little of him and joked about his incompetence. The tortoise indicated that the Dragon Warrior was, in fact, the panda who had fallen before him.ДЄfter failing to persuade Oogway that a 'flabby panda' couldn't possibly be the true Dragon Warrior, Shifu met Po in the Jade Palace and tried to berate and humiliate the panda, even threatening him with the Wuxi Finger Hold. Po eventually fell down into the middle of the arena in front of Oogway, who was about to point to the Dragon Warrior. After declaring that he loved kung fu, the fireworks soon sparked and Po shot up into the sky. In a final attempt, Po strapped fireworks to a chair and lit them, only to be spotted by his father, who panicked seeing the stunt. Desperate to see the tournament, Po tried several ways to get inside, all ending in disaster. When he arrived at the top, the gates closed on him and the tournament had already started.

After a long struggle, he eventually abandoned the cart and climbed the stairs himself, which exhausted him. Once aware of the tournament, Po became anxious to attend it, but was swayed by his father to take a noodle cart up the giant staircase to the Jade Palace arena. A tournament was to be held to determine which of the Furious Five would be chosen. Oogway relayed to Shifu that it was time to choose the legendary Dragon Warrior, one who would be worthy to receive the power of the Dragon Scroll, said to give supreme power to whoever would read it. Shifu immediately sent a palace goose named Zeng to fly all the way to Chorh-Gom Prison to double everything in order to prevent Oogway's vision from coming true. However, his father was proud of their 'noodle folk' heritage and wished for Po to some day run the restaurant in his place and was unaware of his son's true aspiration.Д®lsewhere in the Jade Palace, the master of the Furious Five, Master Shifu, was told by Master Oogway about a premonition that Shifu's former pupil and son, the snow leopard Tai Lung, who was imprisoned after attacking the Valley of Peace, would escape from his high-security prison and return. Though clumsy and portly, he was a kung fu fanatic who dearly hoped to become a kung fu warrior himself.

Ping and worked in the family noodle shop. In reality, Po was the son of a goose named Mr. In an alternate China (populated entirely by anthropomorphic animals), a panda named Po awoke from a dream in which he had been heroically fighting alongside the Furious Five- Tigress, Monkey, Mantis, Viper, and Crane-a quintet of warriors trained in kung fu whom Po had idolized since childhood. Can he turn his dream of becoming a kung fu master into reality? Po puts his heart-and his girth-into the task, and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it's up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat.

Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy, Po's dreams become reality when he joins the world of kung fu and studies alongside his idols-the legendary fighters Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey-under the leadership of their teacher and trainer, Master Shifu. Enthusiastic, big and a little clumsy, Po is the biggest fan of kung fu around which doesn't exactly come in handy while working every day in his family's noodle shop.
