An advanced player with some skill can actually see that Xu Huo has suffered a loss in evolution rate, his speed and strength are inferior to Zheng Yuci. The reason he can hold on until now is firstly because of his strong psychic power, and secondly because he is a Super Evolver with spatial abilities, which can compensate for his weakness in speed.
However, evolution rate actually represents many things. Even among the strong, the one with the higher evolution rate is likely the one who has been in the game longer and has more battle experience. Moreover, from the current situation, Zheng Yuci is getting stronger the more he fights. Occasionally being swept by the green wave, players watching can see those hexagon barriers multiplying and gathering densely behind Zheng Yuci, ready to launch.
The Resistance Army is also very worried about this issue. They have figured out that the reason Zheng Yuci hasn't left yet is entirely because Xu Huo has attracted him.
