Failed to install python 3.5

Question

I need a conda environment with python 3.5.

While I was creating one, it showed in the specification that python 3.5 would be installed. But after the environment was created, python version was 3.8 instead of python 3.5 (pls. see the screenshot below)
I tried to create a new env with python 3.5 twice, but always python 3.8 in the end.

I found someone had similar issue here, but I didn't find solution to this issue.

Can someone explain why it happens? Thanks!

Hi @YutongTie-MSFT , I just want to do a short update. Though I don't know, if someone maybe has fixed this problem on the last days (if yes, thanks!), the python version in the environment that I showed above is magically python 3.5 instead of python 3.8.5...
In order to test, I just created another env with python=3.5 and it succeeded this time.
