Mastering the Karate Kid Challenge in BitLife: A Guide

by Zoe Apr 09,2025

If you're a fan of the *Karate Kid* movies, you'll have a good grasp of what to expect from this challenge in *BitLife*. You'll need to train in karate, confront a bully, and win over a popular girl. Here's your complete guide to tackling the Karate Kid Challenge in *BitLife*.

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

Begin by starting a custom life in *BitLife*. Choose male as your gender and select the United States as your country. To ensure you're born in New Jersey, pick Newark as your birthplace. If you have access to God Mode, boosting traits like Health and Discipline can be beneficial for later stages. Once your character is set, age them up until they reach high school, where the bulk of your challenges will take place.

Learn a Karate Technique While in High School

The challenge here is that your in-game parents might not be willing to fund your karate lessons. If that's the case, you'll need to earn money through part-time jobs or gigs, such as mowing lawns, or you can try praying for wealth. Navigate to Activities > Mind and Body > Martial Arts and choose Karate. Each lesson gives you a chance to learn a technique, so keep taking lessons until you see a pop-up confirming you've learned a technique. Remember, it's crucial not to earn a black belt during high school. If you reach a brown belt without learning a technique, you'll need to restart, as the next lesson might promote you to black belt.

Fight with a Bully

This task can happen at any time, not just during high school. Keep an eye out for pop-up messages about someone being bullied. When you see one, select the "Attack Them" option to initiate a fight. You don't need to win; simply starting the fight fulfills this task.

Date a Girl with 50+ Popularity in High School

During high school, you might receive random date offers. If the girl's popularity meter is more than halfway filled, accept her offer. Alternatively, you can go into the School menu, check your Classmates list, and find a girl with a popularity meter over half. Ask her out on a date. If you get turned down by all potential dates, focus on improving your relationships with these popular girls through general interactions before trying again.

Obtain a Black Belt After High School

This task is likely the easiest, as long as you have the funds for karate lessons. Follow the same process as learning a technique: go to Activities > Mind and Body > Martial Arts and take karate lessons until you earn a black belt.
