Chapter 7: Second Round
As the next day goes on, all of the contestants came back to the stadium to take part in another round of the competition and Musaki was eager to throw down yet again because his first match was a success with random competitors. He chuckled softly as he entered in there and he sees his grandfather coming in front of him and he said, "Hey, grandpa."
"Xing-Fu! Great match yesterday. I can see you've still got some training skills that you had back at the Jade Palace." his grandfather said.
Musaki kept smiling and just replied, "Thanks. I can't believer that everyone in the crowd would be so supportive of me."
"That's because of your father's legacy. But remember...do not get too concerned with winning. Only concentrate on what you're doing and how to hold your own in your skills." his grandfather added.
Musaki nodded his head in understanding and took in everything his grandfather said and planned to use that when he performs his stance. He said, "I will."
His grandfather pats him in the head and said, "Now just go out there and show them what you can do. Never be afraid, do the best you can and most importantly...give the opponents some of Xing-Fu kickass."
Musaki was surprised at that just came out of his grandfather's mouth and he said, "Grandpa!"
Oak Sung chuckled softly and said, "What, you think I don't have the spirit of a young warrior?"
"No, but you got the attitude down-pat." Musaki added.
The horn blares for the start of the competition and Musaki walked through the entrance of the stadium and when he came in, the crowd kept roaring with excitement and anticipation for this tournament to start off. And he was pleasantly surprised to see Kiba, Toboe, Hige and Tsume there in the crowd cheering him on, especially Kiba.
"Go get them, Musaki! Open up a can of panda whoop-ass!" Kiba shouted.
Musaki didn't really expect that to come out of Kiba's mouth, but he knew it meant 'kick butt', so he just took it all in stride and gave him a thumbs-up. Then, he stood on one end of the stadium, took a deep breath and let his mind concentrate on who's gonna be the first one to take down and when that started, he saw Kang-Dae coming in this time as Musaki's opponent.
Musaki wasn't surprised that he was there and Kang-Dae was just looking forward to make him lose as harder as he could. The jackal growls at him angrily and said, "I look forward to crushing you and blowing you out of the competition!"
Musaki just clears his throat and he said, "Yeah, me too. Well, may the best fighter win."
Kang-Dae did not take Musaki's optimistic attitude really well and he just snarls at him and said, "Let's just fight! I've been waiting 12 hours for this!"
As they began, Kang-Dae cornered Musaki and pushed him down to the ground and used most of his flips, kicks and punches to throw at him, but Musaki dodged them with great force and he grabbed the jackal's paw and just flipped him down to the ground, then threw him, kicked him around with his feet and shoved him down.
The jackal gets himself up and didn't really know how to respond to the fact that Musaki's got some moves and he asked, "How did you...where did you...Who taught you...?"
"I'll never tell." Musaki said, smiling.
Kang-Dae growled angrily and knew that he messed with the wrong competitor and he shouted, "Now it's personal!"
He charged at him and kicked him down harder, punched him, shoved him, beat him down and then he flipped him as hard as he could, but Musaki knows when not to give in. He tricked Kang-Dae out while he grabbed him in the back and he ended up twisting himself around and crawling underneath his ankles and punched him in the face.
Musaki went over and did some backflips and then exposed his blue and white orb coming at him and continuously brought Kang-Dae down, in a rapid-fire fighting move where he does a corkscrew kick in the air and landed on the jackal's shin and pinned him down to the ground.
As Musaki lets got of him, Kang-Dae groaned heavily as he laid there in defeat and with that, the crowd definitely rooted for Musaki and he bowed down to them as a response. Seconds later, Kang-Dae gets himself up, a little shaken that Musaki has some insane moves that he never really expected to see before.
"How the hell did you learn all those moves?" Kang-Dae shouted angrily.
Musaki chuckled softly and he replied, "Like I said, I'll never tell."
Both of them went off in opposite directions as the exited out of the stadium and Kang-Dae was really pissed that he had to lose to Musaki and he felt like everyone in the crowd is mocking him and his efforts when all he really wanted was to win and blow everyone out of the water to make sure that he was the only person that will win and that everyone else will lose to him, but as for today...he didn't take losing really well. He snarls at himself and kicks the wall and said, "I will not lose out to the panda! I deserve to win this competition and he'll regret that he ever messed with me!"
As the day goes on, Liu Shang took on Taji and the young blue and white wolf made a swift kick to Liu's face and Liu fiercely pinned him down to the ground and just threw him down the ground, but Taji kicked him in the stomach and made a major backflip and did a one pawstand, smirking at Liu Shang. Liu growls and immediately charged him, but Taji made another backflip and got on Liu's back like a rodeo ridearound and he began to kick, punch and shove him hard.
But Liu Shang has other ideas as he immediately charged up his adrenaline as as Taki reached in for the punch, Liu grabbed his fist and he threw him in the air, jumps up and kicks him hard. Then, he dodged most of Taji's shots and grabbed him by the leg and flips him down again and did a backflip and kicked Taji's face using his two back legs.
Liu Shang chuckled softly and he said, "You just got powned, lion style."
Then, Musaki took on Taji as well and when Taji began to spar him, Musaki dodged most of Taji's punch lands and he grabbed his paw and used most of his kung-fu skills on him and back kicked him in the shin. Taji runs around him and used his backflip move and kicked Musaki in the face, but then...Musaki froze while he was leaning and then, he got himself back up with a fist coming directly at Taji and he flew through the stadium, but landed on his paws when he was in the wall and just immediately went up and punched, kicked and shoved him down. As Musaki laid down on the ground, he looks up at Taji and said, "Dude, you're good."
"So are you." Taji added.
Just then, Jaa comes up and battle Mojag and Mojag wasn't intimidated by Jaa's signature style and figured that it'll be easier to take down a little tiger and said, "This is gonna be good."
But he didn't expect Jaa to fiercely come up to Mojag that quickly and punched him in the mouth, while letting out a snarl at him and said, "Do not mess with me for I am not what you'll expect me to see!"
Mojag noticed Jaa's determination and said, "Whoa, what an ego on you."
Jaa fiercely came in and punched, kicked, twisted and shoved down Mojag several times, but the young boar was quick enough to stop him in his tracks and he kicked him in the shin, used his tusks to block his way and kicked him in his back legs. But Jaa will not be silenced as he severly growls at him and take him down with his own paws by just striking him down and kicked him in the face harder.
Jaa pants furiously and he goes up to Mojag and said, "Do not insult my skills."
Minutes later, Musaki comes back, ready to take down whoever's next, although he's not really focused on winning, he's focused on holding his own and to keep the fight going no matter what. And then to his surprise, his opponent comes in and the last person he expected to fight...was Liu Shang.
And when Liu Shang came in front of him, Musaki was shocked to see that he's gonna take him down himself and said, "Seriously?"
CLIFFHANGER! Didn't expect that to happen, huh? Well, next chapter...Musaki vs. Liu Shang!
