Man if "Tenpai"/ 「天杯」is confusing/messing with you, which honestly seems pretty straightforward from a Japanese context (even individual Kanji) to me, 「出来る」 must throw ya completely off.

"exit/leave" "come", has nothing to do with "being able to do something".

Just cause one knows Chinese, doesn't mean you can blanket make sense of all the Kanji combinations in Japanese, yes it will help tremendously compared to a Westerner looking at it, but on the flip side, Japanese will use certain foreign words completely different than the original language it came from, example: 「テンション」, which comes from "tension", but is not used in the same way "tension" is used in English, despite what some Japanese/English dictionaries will say (if that dictionary gives you the same definition as in English, you know they half-assed it).

Plus the Japanese at times will just throw Kanji together due to the pronunciation rather than the meaning, called "ateji"「当て字」, as we have already seen.
