Abstract Currently, the virtual community brought many challenges to moral education, understanding the relationship between virtual and reality is an important foundation of our moral conduct. "Hyperreality" refers to a non-real state instead of the real, which is mainly dominated by the symbol "implosion" of life, as well as simulation culture prevalent between the real and non-real formation. The challenges of "hyperreality" for moral education are mainly: promoting the authority of social norms; persecuting social norms marginalization; leading to social norms uprooting. The educators should response to these challenges from two aspects: one is guiding young people on how to identify the "real" correctly and carry out the education of the outlook on the "real" as well as operational aspects of symbolic concepts; Secondly, giving the era connotation of social norms and update social norms and the expression.
