Do you earn more points challenging high-level or low-level SL players?

Answer, in my opinion, is not-so-trivial and I suspect in a certain measure at least it involves game theory. My short answer is: once you've collected all challenges - related badges (in a certain measure, this is easier with low-level opponents), it seems to me it's a winning strategy searching for all high-level competitors, which guarantee points even if you loose. What do you think about? Reasoning and calculus, not opinions.

I Don't think it is calculated by your level or something Like example if you don't do Javascript challenges and you are lvl 16 or 17 also and if you challenge low level player for javascript you Xp Didn't lose Means that it is calculated by your languages Xp which you in past you earn from challenges doing lessons etc you can check your Xp in skills section for an particular languages how much have Xp for that languages Tip :- Don't Do challenges only for Xp etc try to learn from these questions which help you in future to remember also doing just for Xp's didn't worth because you can earn Xp definitely from it but Can't learn from it so simply try to imagine what question really do is good for better learning 😉

I challenge to learn. Points earned is however, in my opinion, an interesting math problem.

Points earned/lost depend on who has more xp in a given language between you and your opponent. You gain most points for beating someone with more xp than you in the chosen weapon .

There's not much to opinion OR reason about, because all the information is out there, and by just playing a few challenges you figure out how it works. The ratings (weapon xp) of two players are compared and the gain/loss ratio is calculated from that. The weaker player gains more than the stronger player in case of a win, and loses less in case of a loss. So obviously it makes sense to look for 'stronger' opponents, and yeah, you don't even need to win, as long as your weapon level is low. It ends soon enough, so enjoy it while it lasts.
