After everyone shared their memories, it was time for the memorial ceremony, it took place at the jade palace arena, everyone was in there seats opening the event up with "THANK YOU PANDA, THANK YOU PANDA, THANK YOU PANDA." Chants, all of po's friends and loved ones were lined up, standing next to each other right in front of po's newly made statue as his memorial statue, some other guest appeared with them unexpectedly, Ma-Sha, tigress twin long lost sister, and master ox and croc came unexpectedly as well, along with lu kang, even po's real biological father Li Shan, in the center was tigress along with tiger, ma-sha and viper standing one another, but everyone else was lined up with them in silence but with sad expressions, shifu was the only one in front of the line. Po was also inducted into the kung fu warriors hall of fame by his friends and loved ones for all the work, passion and dedication he had for his career.
As the chants continued, shifu raised his hand and told everyone to silence up as he had a speech to say about po.
"Po Ping, The dragon warrior has passed away, He was in the prime of his life, and was moving on in his career, so today we will celebrate the life of po. (The crowd starts clapping at this first part of the announcement, after they eased down, shifu continued.) Po loved his career, he had a big passion for it like no one else, he even loved protecting you people whenever there was in an invasion, and when he would compete in tournaments, he'd love to perform for all of you, even kids adored him, and as of one of his wishes, the people have to continue fighting for evil and competition, and so it shall and one of his wishes is granted. (The crowd claps at this part but except it was a bit louder.) Everyday, po's goal was to be a great warrior he was born to be, even when he acted like a child, he only wanted to change lots of things and that made us what we are today, but along the way, his main goal was coming true, and before the end of his life, he kept getting stronger and was becoming a great dragon warrior, and all of these true warriors behind me, he also made what they are and even taught them how to become greater warriors than ever. (The crowd goes wild on this part of the speech, but after the next one, the new silence would this time come.)
At this time, I would like you all to please rise and stand in silence, as we bang the gong ten times, and after this, we will all pay po with all the respect he would love, so let's all stay silence, please, thank you."
After shifu stopped, one teenage goose shouted "WE LOVE YOU PO." And one kid bunny called out "THANK YOU PO !" after she called it out, the gong was banged the first time, and as it kept going, the crowd and all the masters were looking down and had tears coming out and they held their own hands together in front of themselves, tigress had most tears coming out and was nearly weeping at this, even though it wasn't her, her lover was dead and she couldn't help it, the crowd were also standing in the same position like the masters as they had sad expressions as well, after all ten gongs were banged, everyone lifted their heads continuing to be silent, shifu then said.
"Now everyone first of all, please look at the statue of po and bow to him."
The masters turn around and bowed at po's memorial sculpture, and the crowd looks at it and bows to, the masters then turn around, and shifu finished it off.
"And PUT'S YOUR HANDS TOGETHER, FOR PO PING, THE DRAGON.. WARRIOR." After shouting it out, the crowd goes wild and the masters just clapped together paying their respect to po, after a minute of clapping, tiger started a chant that made the master and crowd chant along.
"DRAGON WARRIOR, DRAGON WARRIOR, DRAGON WARRIOR." As they chanted it, they had their fists in the air motioning them back and forth forcefully, as the chants kept going, colorful confetti as being launched all over the arena and fireworks were set off in the sky, after a little bit of them, they started forming po's face smiling in the sky indicating that po was watching with a smile on his face looking down on his fans, his friends, his family, and especially his lover, tigress, when she saw his face, she smiled looking at him in the sky knowing that he will be watching her and their child from above.
