He expresses his sorrow that none of the known archers were able to hit the mark , he deplores the state of preparedness of the archers and lauds the efforts of Karn in hitting the mark. Bhishm summons Karn to his presence, Beaming in pride at his recognition , Karna steps up the podium but he feels a virtual slap when Bhishma acknowledges him as a bets charioteer instead of being the best archer. He hands over 100 gold sovereign and walks away leaving a crushed Karna behind.

As soon as Bhishma walks away, The Kshatriya ‘s threaten Karna and order him not to rise above his station !!
