In Toughing It Out!, a silhouetted image of the Eight Masters is shown, although the image clearly shows the first three revealed members of the Master Class so far, the figure of the other five is not revealed.
Considering that Raihan had just joined the Class in this episode, it's not possible to determine if characters like Cynthia were already part of the Eight Masters at this time.
