निष्क्रम्य शिबिरात् तस्मात् ताभ्यां संगम्य वीर्यवान्
niṣkramya śibirāt tasmāt tābhyāṃ saṅgamya vīryavān
三阇耶说道：他从那营中出来后，那位勇力之士便与那两人相会。

The line highlights a narrative pivot: prowess and resolve (vīrya) can be directed toward actions whose moral weight depends on intent and method. In the Sauptika context, martial capability is shown moving toward a night operation, inviting reflection on how strategy and violence can slip from righteous warfare into ethically fraught conduct.
Sañjaya reports that a valiant warrior leaves the camp and then meets ‘those two’ companions. The verse functions as a connective step, marking departure from the encampment and the regrouping of allies immediately before the ensuing events of the Sauptika episode.
