For your issue it’s just your software being stupid where it cannot recognize MariaDB properly — MySQL 5.5 is very old, and free hosting runs MariaDB which is 100% compatible with this version.
I recommend you to use a more up to date piece of script.

You cannot select MySQL version on free hosting or shared hosting in general

I’d love to help you, but the message is in Chinese, I don’t understand Chinese, and you shared the message as a screenshot instead of text, so I cannot easily pull it through a translator. So I have no idea what the message says. Can you, or someone else, maybe translate the error or at least share the error message text?
Does the error say that it requires at least MySQL 5.5? Because we’re running MariaDB 11.4. If it cannot detect that 11.4 is greater than 5.5, the version check is really, really broken. This used to be a more common issue with software 10-15 years ago, where version checkers only looked at the number after the dot, and just assumed that the number before the dot is always 5.
And having MariaDB is not just the issue. If we’d have MySQL, we’d probably have version 8.0. But if it cannot detect that 11.4 is greater than 5.5, then it would not be able to detect that 8.0 is greater than 5.5 either.
All in all, this is a bug in your website software, not in our hosting. And the solution is to fix the bug or use more modern software.
MySQL version selection is not possible on our hosting, or basically any shared hosting for that matter. It’s just technically not feasible to be able to offer multiple MySQL versions at the same time, and the cases where software cannot work with the latest version of MySQL is very rare (and usually an indication of far greater issues).

Yes, it says “MySQL version cannot be lower than 5.5, please upgrade your MySQL version to 5.5 or later”

What software are you trying to run, so I can figure out what could be causing this?
