The Dream Master (at the time called The Nightmare Man) was really a reboot of Season 26B. For example, it was the first episode that was actually called Season 26B. It was also the first episode to use a multitude of sources to create an episode.
This episode is a technical triumph being set after the events of Last of the Time Lords while being set before it from the perspective of the Doctor. In actual fact, our story was made before The End of Time but more or less fits into continuity; except for Lucy Saxon.
Our story either can be set while Lucy was awaiting her appearance in The End of Time or - if you prefer, Lucy Saxon managed to survive the events of The End of Time. I subscribe to the second theory but of course, this is debateable.
The Master would later go on to appear in the TV movie Time of the Doctors in his Anthony Ainley form while also appearing in the final TV movie: The Last Great Time War in his Eric Roberts incarnation!
