Li Aozi admitted that his ability to freeze time was limited.
After all, time as such didn't exist in the world; strictly speaking, he was just compressing the spacetime around him through gravity to a halt.
This was different from a general time stop; the time he personally experienced continued to move forward, and he could still be injured or killed because of it. Even though the attributes and development level of arcane energy by Crescent Moon were high, he was still inferior to his opponent due to the same rank and the oppression by arcane energy.
Unlike in novels and movies, Crescent Moon was verbose, but they took last-hitting seriously. After an initial scorn, they unleashed their full power for a saturation strike against Li Aozi.
