It had to be said that both reward options offered by this quest were of high quality, but neither was a particularly good fit for Ye Weiming.
As Ye Weiming grew stronger, his standards for equipment and martial arts naturally rose as well. He simply could not be bothered with ordinary items anymore. Yet when it came to quest rewards, it often was not a matter of what Ye Weiming wanted, but what the npc handing out the reward had available.
And given the fortunes of the Eastern Heretic and Northern Beggar, it seemed they could no longer produce anything that would make Ye Weiming especially tempted.
On the surface, the War God Gourd was barely usable. As an accessory-type piece of equipment, it also happened to fill the only empty equipment slot Ye Weiming had.
Judging by its attributes, although Ye Weiming could not bring out its strongest effects, it was still barely usable.
After all, its skill bonuses made it clear enough. If Ye Weiming learned Drunken Fist, equipping it would directly raise the skill by three levels. If he learned Drunken Staff, it could raise that by two levels as well.
But none of Ye Weiming's skills had anything to do with alcohol. Only the one-level increase to fist and palm skills was of any use to him.
As for that special effect which could improve the quality of alcoholic drinks and raise it to a maximum of 95, Ye Weiming considered it no different from complete junk.
What did they mean by a master chef!?
By comparison, the Wild Wind Technique was even more absurd.
After all, he did not know either of the two prerequisite skills needed to perform the Wild Wind Technique: the Falling Blossom Divine Sword Palm and the Whirlwind Sweeping Leaves Leg!
