Jaune would have died if not for his Aura. Pyrrha thought he would activate it purposefully. He didn't even know he could do it accidentally. That's my explanation for why her spearing him to a tree didn't break his neck or crush his spine.

As for Yang being launched through the roof, I think she may have actually landed atop the roof long before the fight ended. The impact weakened the roof's integrity and, as she tried to stand up, down she went.

Still, I couldn't tell you where the RT crew plans to take the show when we've got seemingly OP characters like Cinder, Glynda, and Penny on the books. Then the food fight happens and Pyrrha turns into Magneto and Ruby is Quicksilver. The White Fang better start whipping out some awesome Semblance of their own or we're just gonna look at them like a limitless supply of redshirt clones. I mean, sure, no battle can be fought without a few goombas getting curbstomped, but if the entire army is made up of said goombas then pray tell what was the point of having an army?
