Probably identify you first, then something along the lines of -"C/s clear to transit, FL50 (or whatever level), report xxx" (if a position report was required).
As you entered the CTA / CTR "C/s entering Controlled Airspace, Radar Control Service"
As you left the CTA / CTR "C/s clearing CAS, RAS / RIS / FIS" (as appropriate), or even "C/s clearing CAS, squawk 7000, continue en-route, Good Day".

A VFR tranist would be phrased "not above FL50" (or whatever level), leaving you the freedom to manoeuvre vertically if necessary in order to maintain VMC.
