It is a temporal rather than a conditional structure. Drop the 'will' in the subordinate clause. 'I will be in an exultant mood' is correct grammatically, but I cannot imagine anyone saying it today, We'd be far more likely to say 'I will be delighted/over the moon//ecstatic'.

Incidentally, a conditional sentence with 'if' in place of 'as soon as' would be more natural for most people.
