The distinguished judges went down on the elevated platform to meet the students who were now standing stiffly in suspense.
There were only six judges and there were eight who were trying out for the audition. Deputy Chairman also did not say if they would all be given a slot as representatives and so, if there will only be one badge per judge, then that must mean that two of them would be left out.

The first one who handed out his badge was actually Randel, quietly pinning the shiny badge on the right side of Max's chest.
"Congratulations," Randel uttered calmly as he looked at Max whose eyes widened and his body trembled in shock upon seeing the shiny badge affixed to his chest.
"T-thank you, Sire!" He uttered with a shaky voice as he tried hard not to cry at the moment.
