As the eerie prompt rang out, students preparing for the CET-4 and CET-6 were dragged into a deadly exam they could never leave.
Protagonist: top-tier test-taker, incapable of anything but taking tests: I've got this.
"All fear comes from not doing enough practice questions."
In the crematorium, the examinees trembled as they stared at the bloodstained cremation furnaces.
The protagonist dashed forward and swiftly opened the furnace doors one by one.
Examinees: ...?
"A row of cabinets is bound to contain clues. Of course, there could also be ghosts hiding inside."

Ghost in the furnace: ...?
Ghost students watching the exam: "...Learned something. Next time, we'll climb out first."

In a damp, foul-smelling basement, the examinees stared fixedly at the clump of limbs writhing in front of them.
The protagonist looked around, glancing back now and then.

The ghost, which had been hiding for ages and was full of confidence: ...?
Ghost students watching the exam: We learned something... something completely useless! How are we supposed to be ghosts now?!

To get hired, all ghost students must pass the Ghost World CET-4 and CET-6 exams.

"Ghost World CET-4 and CET-6 Past Papers: A Line-by-Line Breakdown of the Protagonist's Tactics"
"Guaranteed to Pass! Learn to Crack the Protagonist's Classic Tricks!"
Protagonist: newly crowned star lecturer, number one on the exam-setting ghosts' most-hated humans list: Nothing special, just practice makes perfect.
