Some code runs off the network
In some multi-user environments the part of the boot-up process can come from the network. For this case systemd defaults to waiting for the network to come on-line before certain steps are taken.
Majority of Desktop Users
Unlike some multi-user environments most Ubuntu desktop users have the Operating System and driver code on their hard disks, SSDs or Live Boot USBs.
There is a glitch where some users wait an extremely long time for network to come up during boot and one of the recommendations is to set the maximum wait time to 30 seconds. A better way is to simply disable the service, especially when you aren't using the Internet all the time and just want to get to work on your spreadsheets or documents, etc.
For most users 10 to 15 seconds can be sliced off the parallel boot time by using:
sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager-wait-online.service
Then, after you sign on you will likely get a message bubble stating you've now been connected to the network (WiFi or Ethernet access to Internet).

Is it needed if I use a wireless keyboard and mouse as input to my system (works with a wireless receiver adapter plugged into USB port)?

@Also , if I use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, will it be needed (I am considering buying one)?

Bluetooth is often embedded in WiFi card so I'm not sure on that one.
