How to Complete the Karate Kid Challenge in BitLife

by Sarah Mar 26,2025

If you're a fan of the *Karate Kid* movies, you'll be familiar with the iconic journey of training, confronting the bully, and winning over the girl. This same storyline is brought to life in the Karate Kid Challenge in *BitLife*. Here's a detailed walkthrough to help you conquer this challenge with ease.

Karate Kid Challenge Walkthrough

This week's tasks are:

  • Be born a male in New Jersey.
  • Learn a karate technique while in high school.
  • Fight with a bully.
  • Date a girl with 50+ popularity in high school.
  • Obtain a black belt in karate after high school.

Be Born a Male in New Jersey

Start by creating a custom life. Select male as your gender and the United States as your country. To ensure you're born in New Jersey, choose Newark as your birthplace. If you have access to God Mode, consider boosting traits like Health and Discipline to aid your journey. Once set, age up until you reach high school, where most of your tasks will take place.

Learn a Karate Technique While in High School

The challenge here is getting your parents to fund your karate lessons. If they refuse, you'll need to earn money through part-time jobs or gigs like mowing lawns. You can also try praying for wealth. Navigate to Activities > Mind and Body > Martial Arts and select Karate. Each lesson offers a chance to learn a new technique, so continue taking lessons until you receive a notification that you've learned one. Be cautious not to earn a black belt during high school; if you reach a brown belt without learning a technique, you may need to restart, as your next lesson could promote you to black belt.

Fight with a Bully

This task can be completed at any time, not just in high school. When you see a notification about someone bullying you or another student, choose the "Attack Them" option. You don't need to win the fight; simply initiating it will count towards completing this task.

Date a Girl with 50+ Popularity in High School

Keep an eye out for date offers in high school. If the girl's popularity meter is over 50%, accept the offer. Alternatively, you can go to the School menu, browse your Classmates list, and find a girl whose popularity is over half. Ask her out on a date. If you're rejected by all options, focus on building relationships with popular girls through regular interactions before trying again.

Obtain a Black Belt After High School

This task might be the easiest, as it only requires funds to continue karate lessons. Follow the same steps as before, heading to Activities > Mind and Body > Martial Arts and taking karate lessons until you earn your black belt.

With these steps completed, you'll have successfully finished the Karate Kid Challenge in *BitLife*. As a reward, you'll unlock a new accessory to customize any future characters, adding a personal touch to your *BitLife* journey.
