Even so there is no way Ruby would be able to fully convey Penny's power to Yang. I think Yang would just shruf it off as Ruby being a little imaginative, because it's certainly a little hard to believe coming from an adult, let alone a 15 year old girl who has clearly shown naive expectations and blind belief in fantasies. And even though she would know she wouldn't expect Penny to come at her full force in an attempt to kill her.

As for Blake/Weiss. I'm not sure. I still think there's room for their relationship to grow (in a bad way) and I doubt there's a shortage of ways that Monty and Miles could make Blake vs. Weiss happen without the tournament. The tournament is perfect for getting friendly matches in that otherwise wouldn't happen though. So it could be a chance to see Ren vs. Nora, Sun vs. Blake or Ruby vs. Blake which I doubt we will get another opportunity to see. Ruby vs.Weiss. Ruby vs. Yang. Weiss vs. Blake. Blake vs. Yang, Pyrrha vs. Ruby, Ruby vs. Penny and Sun vs. Cardin could be more easily integrated into a minor story arc than the the previous examples, which is why they wouldn't require to use the magic that is tournament rules to see them fight.
