Ronan knew perfectly well that he not only had to deal with the problems on Earth's side of spacetime, but also handle the forces coming from the "Central Star Zone."
Not the ordinary ones. These were forces destined to confront the "Myriad Heavens Divine Kingdoms" head-on. Not necessarily to rival them, perhaps, but at the very least to pass Their "inspection."
A "Dream Theater" like that was far beyond what these current "substitutes" could support.
