We discuss qualitative behavior of the SU(N) gauge beta functions in QCD with many massless flavors. Non-perturbative beta functions can be obtained by extracting the renormalized trajectories in the exact renormalization group framework. We examine the renormalization group equations for the general four-fermi couplings as well as the gauge coupling obtained in a simple approximation scheme. It is shown that the gauge beta function possesses not only an IR but also a UV fixed point in the conformal window. These fixed points merge with each other and disappear at the edge of the conformal window. The scaling dimensions of the quark mass operator at the fixed points are also shown.
