Adhyāya 14: Śalya’s Missile-Pressure and the Pāṇḍava Convergence (शल्यस्य शरवर्षम्)
तत्राश्चर्यमपश्याम दृष्टवा तेषां पराक्रमम् । यदेको युगपद् वीरान् समयोधयदर्जुन:
tatrāścaryam apaśyāma dṛṣṭvā teṣāṃ parākramam | yad eko yugapad vīrān samayodhayad arjunaḥ ||
三阇耶说道：在那里，我们目睹了令人惊异之事。见识了那些武士的勇力之后，更令人称奇的是：阿周那竟以一人之身，同时迎战众多英雄——在战争的道德动荡之中，显出独步的驾驭与技艺。

The verse highlights extraordinary concentration and capability: a single disciplined warrior can face multiple challenges at once. Ethically, it also underscores the awe and gravity of battlefield duty (kṣatriya-dharma), where prowess is admired even amid a tragic conflict.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that, on the battlefield, it was astonishing to see Arjuna alone simultaneously engage many opposing heroes, demonstrating exceptional valor and tactical command.
