Chapter 265 - Switch It Up (1/2)

“Huh? Oh, okay!”

Meng Fan finally responded and stopped daydreaming, loosening his grip.

“Let’s take a break!”

Yang Feng grimaced as he embraced his snatched arm. This guy is way too strong, he doesn’t need any more lessons on reacting to the snatch!

Meng Fan was a bit embarrassed. He handed Yang Feng a bottle of water and headed to the side to check out his new task.

“It finally triggered!”

He’d waited so long for this, and it finally came.

Once the task began, it meant everything he was putting in would be rewarded. Exponentially, too!

Meng Fan had come here for this reason.

Only, he was still slightly confused.

How come it took so many snatches and takedowns to trigger it?

And he’d been practicing it for a while, too.

Could it be… the System didn’t have any tasks related to takedowns on its own?

He looked closely at the newly triggered task, Thousand Hand Buddha… No, [Thousand Hand Snatch]. The task required to subdue an opponent 1,000 times with the snatching technique… Then, could he only use the snatching technique? Or if he overcame an opponent 10,000 times, would it be considered 10,000 snatches?

Of course, Meng Fan was just complaining to himself. He knew there was some Wuxia master that went by this nickname. Meng Fan assumed the System was too lazy to come up with a title and took someone else’s nickname. After all, there previously existed the ‘Travelling Deity’ from “Water Margin.”

The rewards from the task were not bad either. Snatching skills +10, which should be the skill level he would be at once he completed the task anyways.

There were no task phases.

This reward was kind of like an epiphany that occured as you practiced.

Was it hard to beat 1,000 opponents?

It would be very difficult, but with Meng Fan’s added stats and figure, he won’t have trouble completing it.

Most importantly… Meng Fan saw that his experience was already at 10/1,000. This meant that Meng Fan had beaten Yang Feng ten times with his capture techniques before triggering this task.

Besides, this experience also revealed one of the most important pieces of information. That is, it counted as points even if you continually defeated the same person.

If it required Meng Fan to really beat 1,000 people in combat, then he’d be done for. Where would he find so many people? Could you just snatch at anyone you pull from off the street?

Wait!

Meng Fan suddenly thought of something. Could it be that the failure of triggering the task was related to him being unable to overtake his opponents?

But if Yang Feng relied only on takedowns to win matches, it would be very difficult. Unless he straight up knocked them out and they couldn’t get up.

Regardless if it was practice or real life combat, Meng Fan had ended the match after flipping them over.

But even after knowing this, it was hard to try it out.

Goddamn!
