Do I have to bleed the master cylinder after bleeding the brakes at each wheel (diagram attached)?

On my Toyota Yaris 2007 with 170k miles, the brake pedal is soft. The normal free play is 6 mm. I have to push the pedal about twice or thrice deeper in order for the brakes to engage and start stopping the car. I could not find fluid leaks, the next step is to check for air in the brake lines (the previous owner did brake change and I suspect they did not fully bleed the system). Do I have to separately do the bleeding for the master cylinder and for every wheel?

No just do right rear, left rear, right front, left front in that order.  I use a MightyVac.


Thanks. I use a cheaper version of MightyVac from Harbor Freight.


It's all good as long as it works.
