The error says the target database does not match the schema which needs to be upgraded. So whichever database is mentioned in the error needs to upgrade – we need to run the below PowerShell command for each database one by one.
Example:

So, if we have multiple content database which needs an upgrade – running this command one by one is time-consuming. So the best way to complete this upgrade – using the below command in a single shot.
Get-SPContentDatabase | ?{$_.NeedsUpgrade -eq $true} | Upgrade-SPContentDatabase
