pedal still spongy

just replace all the lines that go to the rear brakes from under the hood and replaced the wheel cylinders and bleed them both but still the pedal seems soft and drops a lil ... no leaks, is there air traped somewhere else that regular bleeding wont get?

i only got one of the front bleed and the other was an older caliper(rusted) and didnt have another bleeder valve to put back in but i only did that to get the old fluid out but i didnt think any air would have hit the front lines because i didnt tank the line off that comes from the master cylinder
