“Transfer” is rather a misnomer. In reality, your data and setup is merely cloned to the new device. Nothing is moved or removed from the original device. However, if the original iPad remains signed-in to your AppleID - and is synchronised with iCloud - manual file deletion will be synchronised with the new iPad. As such, before making manual deletions from your old iPad, carefully consider which Apps and iCloud services are enabled on your iPads.

These support pages should get you started with setup of your new iPad - and the methods of transferring your data from old to new iPad:
Set up your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support
Transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone, iPad or iPod touch – Apple Support
If the donor iPad, from which you are transferring your data precedes iOS12.4, QuickStart will not be available.
An alternative is to restore either an iCloud or iTunes backup to the new device:
