Well, systemd doesn't really log to the console usually, it does so only indirectly, via kmsg, i.e. the kernel logging subsystem, which is usually connected to tty0, which is the current foreground virtual terminal. You can redirect the loggind console with console= on the kernel cmdline. What systemd writes directly to the console bypassing the kernel log buffer are only the messages "Starting foo..." and "Started foo." Those go to /dev/console, and hence can be controlled via console= too. In summary, presumably console=tty8 (or suchlike) on the kernel cmdline should do what you are asking for (though I have never tried that with a VT, usually people use console= only for serial terminals and similar). If you play around with this, would be cool to report back!
